+++ USA +++: Pentagon streicht wohl ein Fünftel der Stellen für Top-Offiziere

Pentagon officials may be cutting up to a fifth of the positions for top officers, according to recent reports. This comes after President Donald Trump expressed his support for Republican candidates ahead of the US midterm elections in November, aiming to visit 32 days before the vote and rally his party's support. The tour is set to begin in Texas on Thursday, followed by stops in Ohio and various other locations, though the exact itinerary remains undisclosed.

A visit to Alabama is scheduled for Friday, while a trip to Nebraska is planned for Monday. Some prominent Republican politicians and candidates have recently distanced themselves from Trump, calling for an end to the war in Iran or a relaxation of his immigration policies. At a recent meeting with top US tech executives, including Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Trump referred to Kim Jong Un as "my friend" and praised his nuclear capabilities.

Pichai, however, emphasized the company's commitment to a voluntary agreement for the development and control of artificial intelligence, outlining processes and checks similar to those used in other business areas.
