The electric vehicle maker reported third-quarter net income attributable to shareholders of $787 million (€701 million), or 22 cents per share, down 43% from the year-earlier period.

El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele announced Wednesday that he had launched a military operation to rescue four Salvadoran aviation technicians kidnapped by gangs in Haiti, warning of a far more forceful response if they are not returned alive and unharmed. The four men have been missing since Sunday, when gangs opened fire on an armoured vehicle in the Santo area of Croix-des-Bouquets, on the outskirts of Port-au-Prince. The technicians fled the burning vehicle and have not been seen since — marking the first major attack on the international gang suppression force since it began operating in Haiti. Addressing Haitian gang…
Neun Länder drängen in die Europäische Union, doch die Tür ist seit über einem Jahrzehnt verschlossen. Während Friedrich Merz in Montenegro die Beitrittschancen der Länder des Westbalkans auslotet, wäre ein Scheitern des nächsten Beitritts durch Montenegro, vor allem für Russland und China eine Genugtuung. Europa-Experte Hans von der Burchard analysiert, warum das kleine Land an der Adria zum Lackmustest für die Erweiterungspolitik wird und welche bittere Pille die Ukraine womöglich schlucken muss. In Berlin entbrennt zeitgleich auf der Ministerpräsidentenkonferenz ein harter Verteilungskampf um die Energiekosten. Rasmus Buchsteiner beleuchtet die Milliarden-Forderungen von Hendrik Wüst zur Stromsteuer sowie die teuren Rentenpläne von…
“To some extent, he may be attracted by Vladimir Putin as a leader with authority, but I don’t think that … President Trump sees it from a position of a struggle between democracy and autocracies because he’s looking at it simply from the point of view of economic prosperity for the United States,” Pavel added. Though Pavel indicated concerns about the diesel deal, he declined to say the U.S. had betrayed Ukraine or other European partners. “I don’t know yet if we can call it betrayal, but I would call it a mistake,” he said. “Because … it’s now giving…

Sifra, a 29-year-old homemaker, says she, her husband and their children have been coughing for almost a month, with smoke entering their home.
