"We are going to be the biggest social democrat delegation, and that's a source of pride for us, it's an opportunity, but also an enormous responsibility," a radiant Sanchez told reporters. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2EAuUdz via Latest News

Rape survivors in the US are being denied abortions due to financial barriers, “invasive” police intervention and a dearth of abortion providers, campaigners have warned.Abortion rights activists argued that the procedure is already very difficult to access for huge numbers of Americans – particularly people of colour and those on a low wage.Abortion opponents across the US have become increasingly emboldened in their efforts to roll back women’s reproductive rights since Donald Trump entered the White House in January 2016. Legislation to restrict abortion rights has been introduced in 16 states this year.Oriaku Njoku, the executive director of an organisation based in Georgia which helps low-income women access abortion, said the organisation had encountered women who were wanting to get their pregnancy terminated due to it being the product of rape.“You can use medicated funds in cases rape and incest but there is a lot of bureaucracy so it is hard to get it.

US President Donald Trump Sunday downplayed recent North Korean missile launches as he teed off a state visit to Japan with a round of golf and a trip to the sumo with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

The American president maintains that North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un has pledged he is serious about denuclearisation, although experts say there is still a wide gulf between the two sides over what that means. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2Wsv2pv via Latest News

Iran’s president Hassan Rouhani has suggested that the Islamic Republic could hold a public referendum on its nuclear programme, in the wake of rising tensions in the Persian Gulf. "Article 59 of the Constitution (referendum) is a deadlock breaker ... and could be a problem-solver at any junction," the semi-official news agency ILNA quoted Rouhani as saying late on Saturday. The statement followed Mr Rouhani’s public dressing-down by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei for his handling of the country’s fast-unravelling nuclear deal. In recent weeks, Mr Rouhani responded to a new round of crippling US economic sanctions against Tehran by threatening to walk away from terms of the 2015 agreement, which the US withdrew from last year. This approach appears to have pushed the country uncomfortably close to military confrontation with the US. Since US President Donald Trump withdrew, his government has dialled up pressure on Iran by blocking global oil exports and stoking long-s...

The OnePlus 7 Pro was unable to retain its popularity over the week following the one of its launch, and gave the first spot back to the Samsung Galaxy A50. The Asus Zenfone 6 on the other hand kept climbing and completed the podium. Honor 20 Pro debuted on Tuesday and shot straight to the fourth spot.

Last Friday the US Commerce Department added Huawei to the "Entity List", aka the blacklist. Essentially, this meant that US companies are banned from exporting hardware and software to Huawei.

It is trying to fight back against the ban, but right now its future looks grim. This isn't just bad for Huawei, but for consumers too. And we don't just mean the loss of competition. If you currently have a Huawei or an Honor phone, it just lost much of its resale value. And even if you weren't planning on selling it, it won't get the next major OS upgrade, meaning you may have to get a new phone sooner. If last week you were looking to buy, say, a... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2X6RzFx via IFTTT
