EL PAÍS Spanish News

Dear readers

The entire world was on edge this week as a missile hit Poland, raising fears that NATO members might be dragged into the war in Ukraine. We interviewed the Defense Minister of Estonia, who underscored the importance of continued support for Kyiv.

In Latin America, we analyzed how Bitcoin's decline could be a deadly blow for El Salvador. And EL PAÍS was also in Qatar, where soccer fans from all over the world are flocking for the start of the FIFA World Cup.

Meanwhile, in the US, the effects of last week's midterm elections continued to be felt as Republicans took control of the House and longtime speaker Nancy Pelosi announced her decision to step down.

Our top story this week, however, was the decyphering of mysterious inscriptions on The Hand of Irulegi, a 2,100-year old bronze artifact that may be the earliest known writing in the Basque language.

We hope you enjoy this selection of articles from EL PAÍS USA Edition. Thanks for reading.
