EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Noah Lyles squatted down, put his hands on his knees and looked at the stopwatch.He didn't see what he expected, so he waved a dismissive hand.He then returned to the track to celebrate a victory he had been looking forward to in the 200 meters at the World Championships in Athletics.But the night would get better for him.Lyles led from start to finish in the 200 meters on Thursday, finishing with a time of 19.31 seconds, the third-fastest time in history, as the United States recorded its second sweep of the World Championships in track and field events.The winner beat his teammate Kenny Dednarek by 46 hundredths of a second.Erriyon Knighton, 18, finished third.The only two times faster than Lyles are 19.19, the world record set by Usain Bolt in 2009, and 19.26 set two years later by another Jamaican, Yohan Blake.But the time Lyles had most clearly in mind was 19:32.It is the American brand set in 1996 by Michael Johnson, and for decades it was considered unbeatable.As Lyles crossed the finish line, he put a finger to his lips, as if to silence those who doubted him.But the list would have included himself.The last couple of years were hard for the athlete, who had emotional health problems, in the midst of the pandemic that forced him to compete in empty stadiums.Then Lyles put a hand on his hip and checked the stopwatch.He initially read 19.32, before adjusting down one hundredth.“I saw the time come up and I saw that I had tied Michael Johnson's record.I was like, 'Are they really going to do that to me?'" Lyles said. "Then the number went from two to one and my whole world changed."He changed more when he saw the names of his fellow Americans appear below his.He slammed his hands into the tartan, tore off his jersey and snatched the gold medal from the hander.His victory came moments after Sherick Jackson gave the Jamaicans another sprint gold.He arrived in 21.45 seconds, the second fastest time in history, to beat Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, the 100m champion in this World Championship.Only the British Dina-Asher Smith, defending champion and who won the bronze, prevented the second Jamaican sweep.While the Jamaican medalists were the same as four nights ago, the Americans put an entirely different trio on the podium.

I am concerned about hate speech against opponents," Bachelet said during a conference in Lima on the balance of her visit to the Andean country.Although the UN High Commissioner recognized the commitment of the Peruvian authorities to cooperate with international human rights organizations, she warned that "indignation and violence may be exacerbated" during the local and regional elections that the country will hold next October."Peru faces challenges in terms of human rights (...) but they can be overcome and a path can be found towards a more inclusive and hopeful future," he assured at the end of his mission in the country, where he held several meetings with representatives of civil society and senior state officials, including President Pedro Castillo.ANTI-RIGHTS AGENDA Bachelet was emphatic in affirming that the "so-called anti-rights agenda" has been expressed in some bills of the Peruvian Congress and mentioned, for example, a legislative proposal that would require migrants to prove their regular immigration status in order to rent a property, which, he stressed, "could affect the most vulnerable, including children".He also referred to proposals that seek to change the name of the Ministry of Women to the Ministry of the Family or lower the age of imputability for those under 14 years of age, which, he recalled, "contravenes all international agreements and human rights conventions of the child that Peru has ratified"."These are initiatives that seem minor, but there is a background, of an anti-rights agenda, that worries me (...) and I hope that the Government observes them or that Congress reconsiders them," he commented before ruling that "going back in historical advances " would be the biggest threat to Peru.CALLS FOR JOINT DIALOGUE The former Chilean president assured that in order to counteract a possible setback in respect for human rights, the Andean country already has "important tools" in line with international human rights standards, but it requires unity and "effort to guarantee its app".In that sense, she highlighted the "valuable human rights movement" that the country has, the role of the Ombudsman's Office and the existence of officials committed to fundamental freedoms."The path to follow can only be traced successfully if the different sectors of society unite and maintain an inclusive national dialogue, which represents the rich diversity of the country," he reiterated after urging all political parties to act "with generosity and sense of State".He added that, for this dialogue process, it is "fundamental" to have "strong, transparent, responsible and willing to eradicate corruption" state institutions, and to be in alliance with the indigenous populations and human rights defenders "to confront to the impunity enjoyed by criminal groups".For this reason, she called on the authorities to give human rights defenders "effective protection to guarantee a safe and conducive environment for their work."He also highlighted "the resilience and hope of those who seek truth and justice for the violations they have suffered" and specifically mentioned the victims of the police repression of the November 2020 protests and the victims of the forced sterilizations during the mandate of former President Alberto Fujimori (1990-2000)."Assuming the period of violence that Peru experienced between 1980 and 2000 is vital to overcome the main challenges of today, including the high levels of political and social polarization," she prayed.ATTENTION TO THE VULNERABLE At another point, Bachelet asserted that, although mining and other extractive industries have been "fundamental to Peru's economy for centuries," "too often the promises of development fail to benefit the affected communities, especially indigenous and rural populations".Along these lines, he urged the authorities to reach agreements that guarantee prior consultation and the protection of underlying rights to land and natural resources.On the global inflationary process, Bachelet recalled that 15.5 million Peruvians suffer from food insecurity and warned that this "worrying" situation could worsen in the coming months due to the shortage of fertilizers for the next planting season.Bachelet also highlighted the efforts of groups that promote gender equality and the rights of the LGTBI+ community and encouraged the State to "collaborate with civil society to counteract the high levels of domestic violence, the barriers to access to health services sexual and reproductive health, discrimination based on sexist attitudes and gender stereotypes, and the disproportionate rates of missing women and girls.(c) EFE AgencyMEXICO CITY, July 20 (EL UNIVERSAL).- President López Obrador pointed out that
