Vice President JD Vance touts progress in high-level talks with Iran, including renewed nuclear inspections, temporary oil-sanctions relief and a new mechanism aimed at preventing renewed war across the Middle East. A Utah judge hands prosecutors two key victories in the case against accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson, while delaying a decision on whether an alleged gag-order violation could take the death penalty off the table. Trump-backed political outsider Abelardo de la Espriella claims victory in Colombia’s presidential election, promising a Bukele-style crackdown on crime and closer cooperation with the United States. The Supreme Court reinstates Pedro Hernandez’s murder conviction in the 1979 disappearance of six-year-old Etan Patz, overturning a federal appeals court ruling that had cleared the way for a third trial.
