+++ US-Midterms +++: US-Soldat in Großbritannien wegen Spionageverdachts für Russland festgenommen

In a twist of events following the US midterm elections, US Soldier Daniel White has been apprehended in Britain on suspicion of espionage for Russia. White, known for his disdain of entering politics, initially dismissed an offer from UFC boss Dana White to become the White House's new spokesperson. Despite White's rejection, the offer had stirred speculation in Washington, with CNN reporting that White would meet Trump in the capital on Monday.

The repeated mass deportations by the US government, deemed "too harsh" by the President, have sparked debate in the nation. Many believe that individuals who have been illegally residing in the country should not be deported, especially if they are contributing positively to society, as suggested by Trump during an interview on the TV show "60 Minutes".

The Democratic party, set to control both chambers of Congress from January, may help in crafting an agreement for such situations. The intense crackdown on migrants without valid residency status by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency, coupled with mass deportations, led to protests in several major cities. Two US citizens were killed during such activities involving ICE, prompting the government to scale back its enforcement efforts.
