Iran issued an ultimatum to the United States this Sunday. The Iranian parliament speaker made a public warning in which he promises a "faster, stronger and more painful" response to any future US attacks.

Tehran communicated this threat directly, signaling a shift in tone in relations between the two countries. The message represents a hardening of the Iranian position regarding the United States' foreign policy.

The ultimatum comes in a context of growing tension between Tehran and Washington. The declaration by the Iranian parliament speaker marks a rhetorical escalation that suggests Iran is prepared to respond more aggressively to any new American aggression.

UN approves changes to world maps to better reflect Africa's size

The United Nations General Assembly approved a resolution, presented by Togo and supported by the African Union, that promotes a more accurate cartographic representation of Africa's actual size, encouraging the replacement of the 16th-century Mercator projection with the Equal Earth projection, which shows continents in proportional sizes. The "Fix the Map" resolution was approved with 164 votes in favor, one against (United States) and six abstentions, with Washington calling the initiative a "radical ideological project" and a distraction from the organization's real problems. Defenders argue that Mercator's distortion, which makes Africa appear about the size of Greenland when in reality it is 14 times larger, has contributed to an unbalanced global perception and symbolically diminished the continent. The African Union celebrated the vote as "a historic step" toward "accurate and equitable" cartographic representation, although implementation of the resolution depends on the political will of member states, since General Assembly resolutions are not binding.
