"But acknowledging his mistakes, he said, in comments reported by El Pais: I hope that when the noise dies down a bit, society will be able to distinguish between a man who has made a mistake and a bad person. He also did not say if he was calling a snap election or quitting his seat in the regional assembly, which would end his parliamentary immunity, Reuters noted."
"No, not really, Trump told reporters as he flew to Washington from Palm Beach, Florida, when asked whether he was considering a deal to sell the missiles. He added, however, that he could change his mind. His comments come despite growing pressure from Ukraine's allies and recent talks with Nato's secretary general, Mark Rutte, at the White House."
Valencia regional leader Carlos Mazon resigned amid brutal criticism over his handling of unprecedented floods, acknowledged mistakes and criticized insufficient central government support. He expressed hope that society will distinguish between a man who made a mistake and a bad person. He did not clarify whether he would call a snap election or resign his regional assembly seat, which would end parliamentary immunity. A judge is investigating authorities' criminal liability for flood deaths, with journalist Maribel Vilaplana, who dined with Mazon on the flood day, scheduled to testify. Separately, U.S. President Donald Trump indicated he is not considering Tomahawk missile sales to Ukraine for now but could change his mind.
