<p>Maryland lawmakers are scrambling to address a staggering $3.3 billion budget shortfall.</p>
<p>To close the gap, far-left Governor Wes Moore and activist Democrats have proposed a wave of tax hikes that would hit Marylanders' wallets the hardest amid a deepening affordability crisis. </p>

<p>With power bills already skyrocketing to record highs for many folks due to backfiring and disastrous green energy policies, these same progressive lawmakers are creating even more nightmares for taxpayers—this time by proposing a tax that effectively targets sleep.</p>

<p>A small but vocal group of conservative Republicans in the Maryland House of Delegates were stunned on Friday when far-left Democrats pushed through HB 858—a bill that establishes a mattress stewardship program under the guise of promoting safe disposal and recycling. This is another tax on Marylanders as the state sinks into financial turmoil and elevated credit downgrade risks. The new 6% tax on mattresses is on top of the existing 6% sales tax. </p>

<p>It's time for common sense to re-enter Maryland politics after decades of Democrats torpedoing the state to the brink of financial crisis. Perhaps the Maryland House Freedom Caucus will be those heroes needed to rescue the imploding state.</p>

<p>O mundo católico esteve em uma situação de tensão e expectativa nas últimas semanas por causa da situação convalescente do Papa Francisco, que parecia estar piorando dia após dia e indicava uma inevitabilidade de sua sucessão próxima. Não obstante, sua condição melhorou repentinamente e, por enquanto, afastou-se a grande questão de “quem será o próximo Papa?”.</p>
<p>Ainda assim, o Papa tem 88 anos de idade e sua saúde segue debilitada, como não poderia deixar de ser. De modo que se afastou-se a imediatez da questão da sucessão papal, ela ainda paira no horizonte próximo da Cristandade católica.</p>
<p>Agora, poderíamos nos perguntar: “E que importa a eleição do Papa?”. Bem, em um diálogo sobre a Polônia entre Stálin e Churchill, o líder soviético perguntou “E quantas divisões o Papa tem?”, indicando um desinteresse por levar em consideração o Papa como ator na geopolítica. Data vênia, discordaríamos dessa posição. Ao contrário, nos parece que o Papa ainda é um ator relevante na geopolítica.</p>
<p>Realmente, estamos longe da era da ordem jurídica medieval, na qual as figuras do Imperador e do Papa atuavam como eixos demarcadores do limite de uma civitas cristã, dentro da qual se almejava preservar um certo grau de estabilidade e paz por sobre os reinos e nações. Mas seria um equívoco descartar completamente o potencial político do Vaticano.</p>
<p>Em primeiro lugar, o Vaticano conta com uma “população” virtual de 1,3 bilhão de pessoas, a totalidade dos católicos do mundo, os quais são influenciados pelas palavras do Papa em vários graus, dos mais absolutos aos mais sutis. Outras religiões não desfrutam do mesmo grau de centralização que o Catolicismo, de modo que entre as lideranças religiosas do mundo, a mais poderosa é, naturalmente, o Papa, o Patriarca de Roma.</p>
<p>Isso significa que o Papado possui uma influência natural sobre resultados eleitorais em várias partes do mundo (algo que todo ibero-americano sabe muito bem), sobre políticas públicas, bem como sobre serviços sociais diversos. É claro que tudo isso se dá de forma usualmente sutil, pelo menos nos tempos atuais. Mas a influência está aí.</p>
<p>Essa realidade tem dado ao Vaticano um poder diplomático invejável.  Sabe-se, por exemplo, da influência de João Paulo II na aceleração do colapso do sistema comunista na Polônia, mas inclusive nos anos recentes, o Vaticano tem conduzido a sua própria diplomacia voltada para a transição multipolar, com destaque para as relações com a China, a reaproximação com a Igreja Ortodoxa Russa, a mão estendida para Cuba, e muito mais importante: os apelos para que a Europa recupere um papel construtivo nas relações internacionais com o apoio do Papado para mediar o conflito ucraniano.</p>
<p>E a prova de que a atuação internacional do Vaticano tem relevância e recebe atenção de líderes mundiais está, inclusive, na abdicação de Bento XVI. Naturalmente, é complicado especular sobre esses temas, mas já há uma boa bibliografia indicativa de que a saída de cena de Bento XVI adveio de uma pressão avassaladora vinda dos EUA e de um profundo cansaço do Papa no esforço de resistir à pressão – pressão provocada pelo pivô do Vaticano na direção da Rússia e pelas declarações indicativas de uma intenção de uma aliança Vaticano-Moscou para combater o niilismo promovido (era esse o entendimento de Bento XVI) pelos EUA.</p>
<p>É por isso que apesar, de fato, do Papa não dispor de divisões blindadas ou mesmo de armas nucleares, o Vaticano ainda é um dos maiores centros de soft power do planeta, bem como possui elevada capacidade de desempenhar operações sutis de guerra não convencional.</p>
<p>A reflexão sobre “quem sucederá o Papa”, portanto, permanece relevante mesmo agora.</p>
<p>Essa questão estando resolvida, portanto, resta analisar quem poderiam ser o sucessor do Papa Francisco caso ele faleça nos próximos anos.</p>
<p>Em primeiro lugar, é necessário recordar que é muito improvável que se vote por um candidato com mais de 80 anos. Os cardeais com essa idade, inclusive, não podem mais votar, o que exclui praticamente todos os candidatos do último conclave, e também reduz as chances do guineense Robert Sarah, um favorito dos tradicionalistas e conservadores.</p>
<p>Ademais, é necessário levar em consideração que o Vaticano gira em torno, fundamentalmente, da disputa entre conservadores e progressistas, com um setor centrista tentando sustentar um certo equilíbrio entre as tendências.</p>
<p>Por essa linha de pensamento, aquelas figuras que são as “ideologicamente” mais próximas do Papa Francisco entre os cardeais atuais em condições de serem eleitos são o italiano Matteo Zuppi e o filipino Luis Tagle.</p>
<p>Zuppi foi indicado para o Colégio de Cardeais precisamente pelo Papa Francisco e também é ao Papa Francisco que ele deve todos os seus cargos e nomeações e ele pode ser considerado o seu preferido para a sucessão. Chances razoáveis ele tem, já que como presidente da Conferência dos Episcopal Italiana Zuppi seria o representante de um grupo de cardeais que corresponderia a 20% do eleitorado. Na prática, ele é ainda “mais progressista” que Francisco, tendo posições muito fortes em defesa da imigração, bem como em defesa de abençoar casais LGBT na Igreja, mas as suas realizações (e, portanto, sua reputação no Colégio de Cardeais) são mínimas.</p>
<p>É importante, ademais, apontar que Zuppi é o emissário especial do Papa Francisco para a questão ucraniana, tendo visitado Volodymyr Zelensky…sem oferecer uma visita equivalente a Vladimir Putin. Assim, apesar do esforço do Papa Francisco por reivindicar um papel de mediador do conflito, o seu encarregado da questão parece ter um pequeno pendor para o lado ucraniano.</p>
<p>Luis Tagle, por sua vez, seria o primeiro Papa asiático e, de fato, tem sido interpretado como o “Bergoglio da Ásia” e essa, em tese, seria a sua vantagem. A Ásia é, afinal, o futuro da Igreja Católica (junto com a África), de modo que um Papa asiático seria um bom símbolo desse futuro. E Tagle, de fato, parece contar com os favores de Francisco: diferentemente de Zuppi, favorito do Papa, mas sem cargos importantes, Tagle é Pro-Prefeito do Dicastério para Evangelização, Presidente da Comissão Interdicasterial para Religiosos Consagrados, Presidente da Federação Católica Bíblica, e assim por diante.</p>
<p>Ele, porém, não é tão progressista quanto Zuppi, já que assume uma posição mais firme contra o aborto e é mais ambíguo no que concerne a bênção a casais LGBT. Não obstante, o fato dele ser tão jovem (para os padrões papais) pesa contra sua eleição. É que tendo a mesma idade que João Paulo II ao ascender ao Papado, seria previsível um excessivamente longo mandato papal para Tagle – o que seria insuportável para aqueles que estão já saturados com o estilo do Papa Francisco ou que creem na necessidade de uma virada “à direita” para preservar o equilíbrio da Igreja.</p>
<p>Quanto ao campo conservador, os seus preferidos são o alemão Gerhard Müller e o húngaro Peter Erdo.</p>
<p>Müller, que pertence à era Bento XVI e é Cardeal-Prefeito Emérito da Congregação para a Doutrina da Fé, tem um longo histórico de ocupação de cargos no Vaticano, como no Dicastério para Textos Legislativos e inúmeros outros cargos, onde apesar de seu conservadorismo ele parece se concentrar na garantia da continuidade histórica da Igreja. Suas posições, porém, são as mais radicalmente opostas às do Papa Francisco e dos progressistas em todas as questões: da possibilidade de ordenar mulheres como diáconos à bênção a casais LGBT, passando pelo discurso climático, pela comunhão para divorciados e até mesmo a questão do Acordo China-Vaticano. Ele é, ainda, mais pró-ucraniano que o já pró-ucraniano progressista Zuppi.</p>
<p>Com posições tão polarizantes – que envolvem até acusações de heresia contra o Papa Francisco – a probabilidade de que ele consiga os votos necessários é mínima.</p>
<p>O húngaro Peter Erdo parece uma alternativa conservadora mais palatável que Müller. Outrora um dos cardeais mais jovens dos últimos séculos, Erdo é um forte aliado de Viktor Orban e pode ser considerado um dos responsáveis pela restauração da Cristandade na Hungria, após décadas de ateísmo obrigatório. Erdo, ademais, possui uma posição no diálogo interreligioso que aponta para o fortalecimento de laços com a Igreja Ortodoxa Russa e uma postura mais aberta para o diálogo com a China. Ao mesmo tempo em que ele é crítico da imigração em massa e da “abertura” para casais LGBT e divorciados, Erdo é leal ao Papa Francisco evitando confrontá-lo diretamente.</p>
<p>Mas o candidato atualmente mais forte para suceder Papa Francisco não é nem um dos progressistas, nem um dos conservadores, mas o próprio pilar do “centrismo” no Vaticano, o Cardeal Pietro Parolin.</p>
<p>Parolin é o Secretário de Estado do Vaticano desde 2013, ou seja, o seu Ministro de Relações Exteriores. Antes disso ele foi Núncio Apostólico na Venezuela, sendo um dos principais responsáveis pela restauração de abalados laços entre Caracas e o Vaticano. Nessa posição, os seus feitos são inúmeros e admiráveis. Parolin não apenas restaurou laços com Cuba, como mediou conversas entre Cuba e os EUA. Em 2017, enquanto a Rússia era demonizada pelo Ocidente, Parolin visitou Moscou, o primeiro Secretário de Estado do Vaticano a fazê-lo em duas décadas. Ele, ademais, foi o arquiteto do Acordo Vaticano-China sobre a indicação de bispos chineses, ajudando a construir a moldura adequada para dar continuidade e fortalecer o labor católico na China, enquanto simultaneamente respeitando as demandas securitárias do Estado chinês. Até com o Talibã Parolin buscou uma ponte, com o fim de tentar influenciar a organização a ser mais moderada em seu retorno ao poder.</p>
<p>No que concerne a Rússia, a sua posição é mais neutra que a de Zuppi e Müller, inclusive pelo fato de que, historicamente, Parolin foi o responsável por dar continuidade à geopolítica “russófila” inaugurada no Vaticano por Bento XVI.</p>
<p>Tudo isso enquanto o Cardeal Parolin assume posturas conservadoras, porém moderadas, nas questões morais que têm gerado polêmica e polarização dentro da Igreja Católica.</p>
<p>Na medida em que boa parte do Colégio de Cardeais parece não querer uma continuidade absoluta com Francisco na sucessão papal, ao mesmo tempo que prefeririam evitar um Papa conservador excessivamente polarizante, Parolin parece ser o candidato do “compromisso” entre as várias facções do Vaticano.</p>
<p>O italiano, está, então, bem posicionado para o Papado, bem como suficientemente bem alinhado com a virada multipolar na geopolítica planetária.</p>

<div dir="auto" data-sanitized-class="tgme_widget_message_text js-message_text">My friend Scott Thurman had the following insightful observation which I felt the need to share:<br><br>"Christian Eschatologists, some Jewish Zionists, I'm sure, subscribe to the Biblical passage: "Whoever blesses you I will bless and whoever curses you I will curse" from Genesis and Abraham, in their unqualified support of Israel.  And the passages in the Bible where Israel is justified and given the stamp of approval by God, to kill are in their battles with Pagan idol worshippers and blood sacrificers like Baal and Ashtoreth, the Amalekites, and etc.<br><br>However, Muslims today are far more like Israel, being monotheistic and also against blood sacrifice, then they were to Amalekites of old.  Moreover having many of the same prophets as Jews.  <br><br>Therefore, considering Arabs to be "descendants of Amalek" is a false equivalence, even more so considering the fact that Palestinians are genetically and culturally Jewish (yet religiously Muslim or Christian) and are actually genetically-related to the European ashkenazi settler Jews.  So it's really a Civil War, of brother against brother.<br><br>Yet there IS one entity, or group of entities, that ARE the children of Amalek today, who are the true Pagan idolaters that Israel was tasked with fighting in ancient times.  Can you guess who that is?  You've got it: the Gaia-worshipping and Rosicrucian cults at the top of the Western corporate and banking cartels.  Prince Phillip, King Charles, Peter Thiel, Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, et al.  In Ancient Days, it was required to make a blood sacrifice of children to Baal as payment in order to bring rains and harvests, the presumption being that you cannot have Good without some Evil as an offset or payment.  It was all about the Offset (payment, the idea that there's no "free lunch.")  That...suffering must be paid in order for good (harvests and abundance) to be produced.<br><br>This equation is reproduced in the Darwinian/Netwonian/Keynesian/Austrian approach to economics and science; that the 2nd law of thermodynamics mandates an increase in Entropy and that blood must be given (energy) in order for food (energy) to be put out and that the gains are only less than the input payments.  It ignores Creativity in producing abundance as a factor that could produce greater gain (overunity) than initial input.  This is the Pagan Equation. The Equation that Jews, Muslims, and Christians had abolished through Jesus' Sacrifice and Muhammad's spread of faith and infrastructure."</div><br><br><span>(Feed generated with <a href="https://fetchrss.com/" target="_blank">FetchRSS</a>)</span>

<p>Carl Reinboth spent his final moments of life bleeding out on a Somerset Street sidewalk with a chef’s knife in his back.</p>
<p>Reinboth, 64, was knifed in a deadly, random attack on the streets he served. He was an advocate for folks living in the margins of society, mostly the mentally-ill and addicted.</p>
<p>Reinboth had the highest calling in town, devoting his life’s work to helping our town’s most vulnerable as an outreach worker with expertise in drug harm-reduction and comforting the unwell.</p>

Charley was later diagnosed with schizophrenia, which runs in his family.</p>
<p>Charley was found guilty of second-degree murder by a jury in February. The jury didn’t hear a lot about Reinboth at trial, but at his killer’s parole eligibility hearing on Wednesday, the court heard a lot about the accomplished life of Reinboth through victim-impact statements from family, friends and co-workers.</p>
<p>By all accounts, Reinboth took care of others better than he took care of himself and was a graceful mentor, but could be firm working in the volatile street-outreach scene.</p>
<p>He led with love at every step and could often be seen with a suit and tie. He figured it would help de-escalate the unpredictable on the street and display his gentle, caring nature. They said he was whip-smart, had a good laugh and was a revered advocate for the vulnerable. Moving impact statements portrayed him as a most accomplished leader in the neighbourhood — trying to help the folks like the young man who killed him.</p>

<p>Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert Pelletier agreed with a joint position and ruled Charley would be eligible for parole after serving 10 years from the date of his 2021 arrest.</p>
<p>Reinboth worked across the country in harm reduction and was working as an outreach worker for Somerset West Community Health Centre when he was knifed in the back. He loved vinyl nights, playing the saxophone and coffee on the porch.</p>
<p data-async>He had just lit up a cigarette on the sidewalk after buying a pack at a gas bar on Somerset when Charley, <a data-evt-val='{"control_fields": {"mparticle": {"keys": {"click_source_type": "click_source_type", "anchor_text": "anchor_text", "target_url": "target_url", "layout_section": "layout_section"}, "mp_event_type": "Navigation", "extra_keys": ["click_vertical_position_percentage", "click_vertical_position_pixels"]}}, "click_source_type": "in-page link", "anchor_text": "in a random attack, knifed him in the back", "target_url": "https://ottawacitizen.com/news/daytime-stabbings-in-chinatown-were-apparently-unprovoked-jury-hears-in-honor-charley-murder-trial", "layout_section": "in-page-link"}' data-evt="click" data-evt-typ="click" href="https://ottawacitizen.com/news/daytime-stabbings-in-chinatown-were-apparently-unprovoked-jury-hears-in-honor-charley-murder-trial">in a random attack, knifed him in the back</a>.</p>
<p>Those who filed moving impact statements expressed the crushing weight of grief and, in some cases, fear of even leaving their homes. Some of Reinboth’s close friends said they were unable to work after the killing and they couldn’t escape the nightmares, particularly a friend and co-worker who ran to the call and saw that it was Reinboth.</p>

<p>The images are haunting, and some said the emotional toll of losing the revered Reinboth was overwhelming and they had severe trust issues. Some have left their once-loved work, and one close friend who said she once loved the neighbourhood, but now stayed clear of it.</p>
<p>Some said the emotions of that day were still raw and they couldn’t delete them from their minds.</p>
<p>One of his close friends filed their victim-impact statement anonymously and had Ottawa Police Service Sgt. Kevin Jacobs read it on their behalf.</p>

<p>She wrote that she’d never forget the day Ottawa police knocked on her door and told her the worst news. “At that moment, my entire world collapsed. I was overcome with sorrow, disbelief, and overcoming panic.”</p>
<p>She said she found it hard to sleep and had sought therapy. She noted that the pain was not just hers.</p>
<p>“Carl spent his life and career fighting for the most marginalized people in our society. He was their advocate, their voice, and their safe place. Through his death, they too have lost someone irreplaceable.”</p>
<p>She, liked others, described it as a senseless act of violence.</p>
<p>In her impact statement, she also wrote, “(Charley’s) actions were not a mistake, not a moment of weakness, but a calculated and heartless act of evil.”</p>

<p data-async>The court also heard from witnesses who filed supporting letters for the killer. They said Charley had a solid moral compass, had prospects for the future and was about to play football on the East Coast with a scholarship. The pandemic put a quick end to that dream and his mental health fell during COVID-19 times, when he <a data-evt-val='{"control_fields": {"mparticle": {"keys": {"click_source_type": "click_source_type", "anchor_text": "anchor_text", "target_url": "target_url", "layout_section": "layout_section"}, "mp_event_type": "Navigation", "extra_keys": ["click_vertical_position_percentage", "click_vertical_position_pixels"]}}, "click_source_type": "in-page link", "anchor_text": "started behaving irrationally", "target_url": "https://ottawacitizen.com/news/defence-calls-not-criminally-responsible-honor-charley-murder-trial", "layout_section": "in-page-link"}' data-evt="click" data-evt-typ="click" href="https://ottawacitizen.com/news/defence-calls-not-criminally-responsible-honor-charley-murder-trial">started behaving irrationally</a>.</p>
<p>One supporting statement came from a high school friend who recalled the time he stole just over $1,000 from a bedroom at a house party. He took Charley outside and showed him the cash. It was the most they’d ever seen. Charley told his friend he had give the money back. When his friend refused, Charley grabbed the stolen money and gave it back to the party host, who thanked him profusely because it was their money to pay rent.</p>

<p>The judge also recognized the fact that, until the murderous events of April 23, 2021, Charley had been a good person. He worked hard on his grades with the help of a long-time neighbour he called “grandmother.” He used to shovel her walkway, and later she tutored him in school.</p>
<p>Charley was also found not criminally responsible for the attempted murder of another man he attacked two hours after stabbing Reinboth.</p>

<p>Charley’s mother had seen him the day before the stabbings and recalled aggressive behaviour. Around that time, Charley had inexplicably stated that he believed celebrities Kim Kardashian and Kevin Hart were posting about him on social media and that the postings had garnered millions of “views.”</p>
<p>“Something (was) definitely wrong with Honor Charley. He is paranoid, he thinks people are out to get him … and he’s scared,” Smith said. “At the time of the stabbing, he hears a voice saying, ‘That’s the guy.’</p>
<p>“When he stabbed (the victims), Mr. Charley’s psychosis was at its highest,” Smith told the jury.</p>
<p>The Crown countered Smith’s arguments by asking the jury to “reject outright” the opinions of the psychologist. Assitant Crown attorney John Semenoff told the jury Charley was “fully aware of what he was doing” during the stabbings “and he did it anyway.”</p>

<p>But at the parole-eligibility hearing on Wednesday, the Crown made clear that mental illness played a role in the senseless killing, as did the judge. Charley declined to say anything at the hearing.</p>
<p>In one moving impact statement, one of Reinboth’s friends said she hoped the killer would be given a second chance — like Reinboth would have wanted. She also said she hoped the killer would have access to mental-health care in prison and not just be warehoused.</p>

<p>A motion to apply a speed reduction for a portion of Bank Street on the southern edge of the city was approved by Ottawa councillors on Wednesday — a move that an advocate says will help reduce pedestrian deaths and make it safer for those who choose not to drive.</p>
<p>The proposal, which was first discussed in the city’s Public Works and Infrastructure Committee in February, will reduce the limit on a portion of Bank 150 metres south of Kitchener Avenue and Hunt Club Road to 50 km/h from 60 km/h.</p>

<p>According to a report published ahead of Wednesday’s city council meeting, there had been “numerous complaints” from residents and community associations in the area regarding pedestrian safety.</p>
<p>The area has high pedestrian activity due to the South Keys Shopping Plaza and multiple pedestrian crossing points that provide access to two transit stations, as well as several commercial and residential properties. There is also a seniors residence whose elderly residents frequently need more time to cross the road, and a biking feasibility survey is also underway by city staff.</p>
<p>Complaints escalated after a serious three-vehicle collision occurred at the intersection of Bank Street and Johnston Road last November, and the report said the intersection had documented safety concerns. Speed data collected from more than 22,000 vehicles last December showed that 85 per cent of drivers were driving at or below 64 km/h instead of the posted 60 km/h.</p>

<p>“When you reduce the speed of a road, if you do have a conflict between vehicles, there’s better chances for that pedestrian (to survive the collision),” said Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Jessica Bradley, who proposed the speed-limit reduction.</p>
<p>“Ultimately, for true pedestrian safety, we need to make sure that we have good pedestrian facilities at the crosswalk, that those areas are appropriate for the roadway. Sometimes that means, if (the road is) really wide, you need that reprieve in the middle section for people who can’t make it fully across. Sometimes that means you’re adjusting the timing of the lights and that you’re looking for pedestrian crossings where you know there isn’t safe infrastructure and asking why.”</p>

<p>Bradley said the speed reduction made sense and she didn’t anticipate much pushback from drivers. According to the report, the northern portion of Bank Street at Kitchener Avenue was already established at 50 km/h, while the remaining portion starting at the bridge to Hunt Club Road had a 60 km/h speed limit.</p>
<p>“It’s not a giant change, and it’s just Hunt Club Road where you have a lot of speedways and stop-and-go situations because people are trying to get to the transit station or the South Keys Shopping Centre,” Bradley added.</p>
<p>“People in the immediate area haven’t expressed a concern … I guess those who have concerns, they might be further south, and it might be because they want to go fast. The city generally is trying to reduce speed. We’ve got a lot of automated speed assessments going on now, so it really is in line with where we’re moving as a city.”</p>

<p>Marko Miljusevic of Strong Towns Ottawa, an advocacy group promoting a walkable city, said the reduced speed-limit proposal was a good first step in improving pedestrian safety in the area.</p>

The association said a reduction of vehicle speed from 50 km/h to 30 km/h reduced the average probability of a pedestrian fatality to 10 per cent from 80 per cent.</p>
<p>However, achieving speed limits that eliminate deaths and serious injuries should be the ultimate goal for road safety, the association added.</p>

<p>“Speed limits aren’t the end all be all of road safety. There’s a lot more that goes into it, but (the reduction) is great to see,” Miljusevic told the Ottawa Citizen.</p>
<p>Miljusevic said he would like to see narrower roads and wider sidewalks so drivers could be more aware of their surroundings in addition to speed-limit reductions. He also called for more speed enforcement along busy arterial roads like Bank Street.</p>
<p>The Canadian Association of Road Safety Professionals advises municipalities to use a combination of better road infrastructure, enforcement and community engagement to manage traffic speeds in neighbourhoods.</p>
<p>“Looking at (Bank Street and Johnston Road), it’s a very wide intersection, so pedestrians are crossing very broad lanes. There’s slip lanes, which encourage speeding from divers while they’re turning, and often they’re not paying attention to pedestrians,” Miljusevic said.</p>

<p>“Making those intersections safer is a key point because that’s typically where vulnerable road users are walking on sidewalks and waiting to cross.”</p>
<p>Bradley acknowledged that a speed-limit reduction wasn’t enough to dramatically improve pedestrian safety in the area. The city will also hold education campaigns and community engagement sessions to inform residents about the change.</p>
<p>“How do we keep the momentum? It’s raising awareness and using other tools in our toolbox,” she said.</p>
<p>“We’re getting that area resurfaced … There are opportunities to do some narrowing, add some cycling infrastructure, etc., to pinch people a bit and bring (speeds) down.”</p>
<p>City staff will report back to council with their recommendations sometime in the future.</p>

<p>Ottawa has long been marked by its urban sprawl crawling to the outskirts, with bus arteries herding public servants into the downtown core and other urban areas like Tunney’s Pasture.</p>
<p>The result has led to a reputation as a boring, government town made worse by its location between Toronto and Montreal, the cultural centres of anglo and francophone Canada.</p>

<p>But then the COVID-19 pandemic’s emergence of work from home hit, turning downtown Ottawa into something of a commercial desert. Alongside that global health crisis was one of the worst housing affordability crises in the western world, with Canada maintaining the second-highest price-to-income ratio out of all <span>Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries.</span></p>
<p><span>Both housing affordability and supply have become an enormous crisis for Parliament and city hall alike, but more vacant office buildings bring with them opportunity, too.  </span></p>
<p>Unlike other housing-hungry cities in Canada, Ottawa has an ample supply of former office buildings owned by the federal government. Currently, 35 properties in the Canada Land Bank are either open for feedback, accepting submissions or under review.</p>

<p>The land bank was announced last summer by the federal government as part of the federal government’s new housing strategy. All the buildings chosen by the land bank were selected due to their suitability for housing development.</p>
<p>The land bank was to deliver the properties through a long-term lease model to ensure affordability and retention of public land in public hands.</p>
<p>The land bank holds the biggest promise for Ottawa, where the federal government has one of its largest portfolios of buildings, meaning those lands can improve the density of the downtown core and surrounding neighbourhoods.</p>
<p>For example, three of the Ottawa properties are near Hurdman Station and could accommodate almost 5,000 new housing units, the federal government says.</p>

<p>The properties include: Hurdman North, a parcel west of Riverside Drive and south of Highway 417, with potential for 4,000 units; 315 Terminal Ave., which could house 300 units; and 1460 Riverside Dr., which could accommodate up to 500 units.</p>
<p><span>Jason Burggraaf, executive director of the Greater Ottawa Homebuilders Association, told the Ottawa Citizen that more people would need to live in the downtown core to revitalize it, attracting more amenities like shops and grocery stores.</span></p>
<p>“The more people we can have living downtown in the core, the more viable and more life it’ll see,” <span>Burggraaf said. </span></p>
<p>It’s a familiar push for experts and politicians to push for housing supply, however it arrives. For Lesley Cabott, president of the Canadian Institute of Planners, anything that increases housing supply means lower costs. Cabott points to Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s statement that 3.5 million new homes are needed by 2030 to meet demand.</p>

<p>For some housing advocates, though, there are worries that the Canada Land Bank could facilitate more of the same problems around development that spiked homelessness and the affordability crisis, which is only set to get worse from the tariff war created by U.S. President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Kaite Burkholder Harris, executive director of the Alliance to End Homelessness Ottawa, is skeptical about rushing federal buildings into the hands of private developers.</p>
<p>It raises a larger and historical question about the federal government’s offloading of public housing in the 1990s and the increasing pursuit of private-public partnerships (P3s) within government since then.</p>
<p>“If it’s a public asset, like federal government land, government buildings, those sorts of things, it needs to be kept in the hands of the public,” Burkholder Harris said. “P3s seem like a great idea, but they don’t offer that long-term, permanent affordability.”</p>

<p>Burkholder Harris advocates for “non-market operators” to own and manage the converted buildings to ensure affordability over decades. Without it, she warns, long-term affordability is at risk.</p>

Jeff Leiper, the Ottawa councillor for <span>Kitchissippi ward, has written to the city seeking to double the commitment for affordable units. </span></p>
<p>It’s a balance that the federal government is trying to strike between achieving revenue from assets if it leases them to private developers and reduced revenue from leasing to non-profit organizations.</p>
<p>“The good news is that, regardless of whether it is affordable housing or market-based housing, it is more housing,” Leiper said.</p>

<p>That said, for Leiper, an area like Tunney’s Pasture, which has five buildings within the land bank, his preference is for more affordable units. He points to the reduced parking ratios at Tunney’s Pasture that have been designated for new buildings in the area.</p>
<p>It adds another complexity to densification and revitalization through conversion or other multi-unit buildings. How will Ottawa diversify its transportation option, particularly for a core and other urban-adjacent neighbourhoods that lack the option for building new roads?</p>
<p>“The good news is that it’s chicken and egg,” Leiper said. “Higher population densities lead to more transit because the ridership base is there to financially underwrite the provisional service.”</p>

<p>Bike lanes are also expected to be prioritized in heavily diversified areas. However, recent bills passed by the Ontario government add another complexity as every new bike lane needs provincial approval.</p>
<p>Other challenges remain for the city’s ambition of diversification, too.</p>
<p>So far, city council has not chosen to give financial incentives, like waving developer fees, to private developers who convert office buildings into residential units, although it has happened on a small scale in the ByWard Market. It’s not likely to expand, either, as the city depends on development fees alongside the political hot potato of property taxes for its revenue.</p>
<p>The waiving of fees is an enticing option for developers. Multiple people interviewed for this story said that converting office buildings could be just as expensive as building new ones. Sometimes it could be more economical to simply demolish an old building than to convert it.</p>

<p><span>Burggraaf is one of those voices. O</span>ffice conversions are much more complex than simply handing a lease to a developer and expecting a building to be developed. It differs site-by-site, he said, and just because it is a conversion doesn’t exempt it from the same permits and approvals from the city a new build requires.</p>

<p>However, there is an important environmental argument for saving the carbon cost of construction with office conversion.</p>
<p>Conversions can also inject more commercial and social activity into neighbourhoods. Judy Lincoln, Westboro Village Business Improvement Area executive director, believes more density gives local businesses more opportunities and foot traffic, which is essential for exploring neighbourhoods.</p>
<p>For Burkholder Harris, office conversions, if done with affordability and vulnerable people in mind instead of market value, can help end homelessness.</p>
<p>“Ending homelessness, is possible, and it absolutely starts with housing,” she said.</p>
<p>“Office conversions, I think, are going to and are a part of that. It’s just we need to be really thoughtful about how we do that and when and with which providers. But I do think it’s one of many pieces to that, to that puzzle, to solving the housing crisis.”</p>

<p>The Greater Ottawa Homebuilders’ Association says removing federal sales tax from new homes will improve housing affordability in the city and affect home prices in the region.</p>
<p>Liberal Party Leader Mark Carney and Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre have both promised to remove GST on new homes as part of their parties’ election platforms.</p>
<p data-async>Carney promised to eliminate GST from new homes under $1 million, which would save Canadians an estimated $50,000 per purchase. <a data-evt-val='{"control_fields": {"mparticle": {"keys": {"click_source_type": "click_source_type", "anchor_text": "anchor_text", "target_url": "target_url", "layout_section": "layout_section"}, "mp_event_type": "Navigation", "extra_keys": ["click_vertical_position_percentage", "click_vertical_position_pixels"]}}, "click_source_type": "in-page link", "anchor_text": "According to Carney\u2019s website", "target_url": "https://markcarney.ca/housing", "layout_section": "in-page-link"}' rel="noopener noreferrer" data-evt="click" data-evt-typ="click" href="https://markcarney.ca/housing" target="_blank">According to Carney’s website</a>, the move would allow young Canadians to enter the housing market.</p>

The Conservative leader said the move would allow middle-class Canadians in expensive cities like Vancouver and Toronto to set down roots. Homebuyers would save around $65,000 under his party’s plan.</p>
<p>“Carney just doesn’t understand <span>that Canadians can no longer afford to live in towns and cities they grew up in,” he said. </span></p>
<p>The promises were well received by the Greater Ottawa Homebuilders’ Association, which said the GST cuts would improve housing affordability in the capital region.</p>

<p>The median sale price for townhouses and rowhouses was around $575,000 in that same period, up 5.5 per cent year-over-year.</p>
<p>The median sale price for apartment units saw the least change: up only by 0.6 per cent year-over-year to $387,500 in the same quarter.</p>
<p>Jason Burggraaf, the executive director of the Greater Ottawa Homebuilders’ Association, said he expected the federal government to change the threshold for the GST rebate for homebuilders if the policies were passed.</p>
<p>When the GST was first introduced, the government put in a rebate to offset supply and construction costs so there wouldn’t be a tax on new homes. However, prices of homes, construction, labour and land have gone up, all of which have contributed to soaring housing prices.</p>

<p>“The home buyer usually signs the (GST rebate) over to the home builder to get that advertised price on their new home,” Burggraaf told Postmedia on Saturday.</p>
<p>“What we’re assuming would happen is that 100 per cent of the GST would be included in the rebate, which would then be assigned over to the home builder. The advertised price of a new home doesn’t (include) GST on top of that.”</p>
<p>Burggraaf also said the move would eliminate GST from development fees, fees that homebuyers need to pay to get services and infrastructure to their new homes. In Ottawa, single-family homeowners in the suburbs can expect an additional $65,000 in taxes alone. Homeowners in Ottawa’s city centre can expect to pay around $10,000 less in taxes.</p>

<p>“It would really remove a significant tax-on-tax dynamic as well,” Burggraaf said.</p>
<p>Burggraaf said he wanted the provincial government to remove provincial sales tax from new home builds as well.</p>
<p>He added that removing the GST was a good first step to reducing barriers for young Canadians who could not afford to buy homes.</p>
<p>“People are not settling down as quickly as before,” Burggraaf said.</p>
<p>“The precariousness of the job market obviously has a big impact on how much you can afford and how much you can save for a down payment. But, ultimately, every segment of the population, whether they’re buying a new home or moving into a new rental or trying to buy a used entry-level home … Everyone is a bit more stuck because the fair amount of demand has so outpaced the housing that’s out there.”</p>

<p>An American woman has been freed by the Taliban in Afghanistan after she, two Britons and their Afghan translator were detained earlier this year, Washington’s former envoy to Kabul, Zalmay Khalilzad, has said.</p>
<p>She is the fourth US citizen released by the Taliban since January, as part of agreements brokered by Qatar.</p>

<p>“American citizen Faye Hall, just released by the Taliban, is now in the care of our friends, the Qataris in Kabul, and will soon be on her way home,” Khalilzad, who has been part of a US delegation working on Taliban captive releases, wrote on X on Saturday.</p>

<p>Hall’s <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/3/20/taliban-releases-us-detainee-george-glezmann-in-trump-administration-deal">release</a> comes just days after George Glezmann, an American detained in Afghanistan for more than two years, was released by the Taliban earlier this month, and arrived in the United States, where he reunited with his wife and was greeted by a welcoming party that included his former cellmate.</p>
<div data-sanitized-class="container--ads in-article-ads">
<p><span data-sanitized-class="ads__title">Advertisement</span></p>
</div>
<p>The Taliban called Glezmann’s release a “goodwill gesture” reflecting its willingness to engage with the United States “on the basis of mutual respect and interests”.</p>
<p>The Taliban has previously described the release of US detainees as part of its global “normalisation” effort.</p>
<p>The group remains an international pariah since its lightning takeover of Afghanistan in August 2021: No country has officially recognised the Taliban government, although several countries continue to operate diplomatic facilities in the country.</p>
<p>Afghanistan’s takeover came as the Joe Biden administration oversaw a withdrawal outlined by the first administration of US President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>The Republican leader negotiated with the Taliban in 2020 to end the war in Afghanistan, and he agreed to a 14-month deadline to withdraw US troops and allied forces.</p>
<p>The agreement was controversial for leaving out the Western-backed Afghan government, which was toppled amid the US’s chaotic exit from the country in 2021.</p>
<p>The Trump administration is yet to articulate a clear policy for how it will approach dealings with the Taliban government during the president’s second term.</p>
<p>Trump has been a <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/8/30/afghanistan-is-a-us-election-issue-will-its-refugees-voices-be-heard">regular critic</a> of how the Biden administration oversaw the withdrawal from Afghanistan.</p>
<p>A bomb attack at Kabul’s airport in the final days of the chaotic withdrawal killed at least 170 Afghan civilians seeking to flee the country, as well as 13 US soldiers.</p>

title: Month of giving: Syrians in Ethiopia keep Ramadan iftar tradition alive

content:
<p><strong>Addis Ababa, Ethiopia –</strong> Images of old Damascus and Aleppo adorn the walls of a modest restaurant tucked into Bole Michael, a working-class neighbourhood near Addis Ababa’s international airport.</p>
<p>Chatter in Arabic and Amharic fills the air, mingling with the sizzling of a grill roasting a giant shawarma skewer and oil crackling around crunchy kebeiba (bulgur and ground meat balls).</p>

<p>In the kitchen, Syrian chef Ahmed Ibrahim and his two assistants prepare for the evening rush. As the sun begins its descent, they carefully fill small bowls with hummus and dates for guests in the restaurant and pack takeaway meals for those who stop by seeking a free meal.</p>
<p>In the spirit of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, Ibrahim says he is happy to give back.</p>
<p>“When I first came to Ethiopia in 2020, I didn’t have a penny to my name. I worked in restaurants until I could open my own. I married an Ethiopian woman, and now, I’m a father of two daughters,” Ibrahim tells Al Jazeera. “This country has become a home to me.”</p>
<div data-sanitized-class="container--ads in-article-ads">

</div>
<p>More than 5.5 million Syrians have fled their homeland since 2011, when war broke out after the government cracked down on a popular uprising. Most Syrians who left sought refuge in neighbouring countries like Lebanon, Turkiye, and Egypt.</p>
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3606564" data-sanitized-id="attachment_3606564" data-sanitized-class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" src="https://www.aljazeera.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Bole-Michael-has-become-locally-known-as-the-Syrian-enclave-as-it-has-seen-more-of-them-setting-base-in-this-Addis-Ababa-neighbourhood.-Image-by-Samuel-Getachew.-1743093589.jpg?w=770&amp;resize=770%2C513" alt="Men walking in a street at night" data-sanitized-class="size-arc-image-770 wp-image-3606564"><figcaption data-sanitized-id="caption-attachment-3606564" data-sanitized-class="wp-caption-text">Bole Michael has become a hub for Syrians in Addis Ababa [Samuel Getachew/Al Jazeera]</figcaption></figure><p>But some ventured further, to countries like Ethiopia, where fewer than 1,500 Syrians reportedly live.</p>
<p>Al Jazeera approached Ethiopia’s Immigration and Citizenship Services for an official estimate, but the agency declined to respond. According to local media, many Syrians remain unregistered and live in limbo.</p>
<p>Despite these challenges, Bole Michael has become known as a Syrian neighbourhood. More Syrian refugees have found their way there, carving out a familiar rhythm.</p>
<p>Its streets, largely unpaved and strewn with pebbles and dust, have long been home to Somali, Sudanese and Yemeni refugees – some of the more than one million refugees living in Ethiopia.</p>
<p>In recent years, Syrian businesses have started adding their accents and flavours to the bustling area.</p>
<p>Ibrahim’s restaurant, named Syria, is one such business. The 34-year-old arrived in Ethiopia five years ago after a three-year stay in Sudan was cut short by political unrest there. Opening the restaurant, he says, was a way to recreate a slice of home in exile, a place where he could serve the dishes of his homeland to those who would appreciate them.</p>
<p>During Ramadan, that mission takes on even greater meaning: giving.</p>
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3606570" data-sanitized-id="attachment_3606570" data-sanitized-class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" src="https://www.aljazeera.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Salem-Berhanu-a-regular-in-the-Syrian-neighbourood-enjoying-dinner-with-Syrians.-Image-by-Samuel-Getachew-1743093683-e1743273669719.jpg?w=770&amp;resize=770%2C521" alt="Salem Berhanu, a regular at Syrian restaurants in Bole Michael, enjoying dinner with Syrians [Samuel Getachew/Al Jazeera]" data-sanitized-class="size-arc-image-770 wp-image-3606570"><figcaption data-sanitized-id="caption-attachment-3606570" data-sanitized-class="wp-caption-text">Salem Berhanu, a regular at Syrian restaurants in Bole Michael, enjoys dinner with Syrian friends [Samuel Getachew/Al Jazeera]</figcaption></figure><p>“It would’ve been great if I could host a free iftar for everyone in need, like the ones I grew up seeing in Syria,” says Ibrahim, referring to a centuries-old tradition across the Middle East, where banquets are set up on the streets to offer free food to passersby breaking their Ramadan fast at sunset.</p>
<div data-sanitized-class="container--ads in-article-ads">
<p><span data-sanitized-class="ads__title">Advertisement</span></p>
</div>
<p>“But that would be difficult here, since poverty is widespread and we’re just a small business,” he adds.</p>
<p>“Instead, during Ramadan, we try not to turn anyone away,” he says, explaining that the restaurant serves free meals to those in need during the holy month. “It’s about community and helping however you can,” he says.</p>
<p>Nearly a quarter of Ethiopia’s 124 million people live below the poverty line.</p>
<h2 data-sanitized-id="a-taste-of-generosity-from-home"> A taste of generosity from home</h2>
<p>As the adhan echoes from a nearby mosque, signalling the end of the fast, Ibrahim begins welcoming diners.</p>
<p>Among them is Zeynab Mohammed, a Syrian mother of four who arrived in Ethiopia last year after fleeing Khartoum amid Sudan’s continuing civil war. Since settling in Addis Ababa, she has tried to make a living selling homemade perfume on the streets.</p>
<p>Closing her eyes briefly in prayer, she digs into a fragrant chicken shawarma wrap with fries.</p>
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3610383" data-sanitized-id="attachment_3610383" data-sanitized-class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" src="https://www.aljazeera.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Prayers-1743275564.jpg?w=770&amp;resize=770%2C497" alt="Rows of Ethipian men praying, with a smiling little boy in the front row" data-sanitized-class="size-arc-image-770 wp-image-3610383"><figcaption data-sanitized-id="caption-attachment-3610383" data-sanitized-class="wp-caption-text">About 30 percent of Ethiopians are Muslim.

The generosity, the shared meals – it’s something we carried with us from Syria, and it’s still alive here.”</p>
<p>Sitting next to her is Salem Berhanu, an Ethiopian friend and familiar face in the neighbourhood. Berhanu often joins newcomers at local eateries, occasionally paying for their food when he can. He is well-known among local children who gather around him, chatting in Amharic.</p>

</div>
<p>Berhanu says he enjoys seeing Syrians in Ethiopia. “It’s beautiful, especially during Ramadan, because it gives us a chance to meet new people and have meaningful conversations,” he says.</p>
<p>While many Syrians say they’ve felt welcome in Ethiopia, the challenges remain immense.</p>
<p>At a nearby table, another Syrian refugee, Aisha Abdul, recalls her early years in the country. She arrived in Addis Ababa after a perilous bus journey from Sudan, during which she hid from fighters who sometimes attacked convoys.</p>
<p>Three years ago, she and other worshippers at a local mosque in Bole Michael were invited to an iftar hosted by Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed – a moment that, for her, felt like a lifeline after years of displacement.</p>

title: Thousands march in Paris against military aid to Ukraine (VIDEOS)

<p><strong>French President Emmanuel Macron recently announced €2 billion more in arms for Kiev</strong></p>
            
                        
            <p>Thousands of demonstrators marched through the streets of Paris on Saturday, protesting French President Emmanuel Macron’s and NATO’s militaristic approach to the Ukraine conflict.</p>
<p>On Wednesday, Macron announced a new €2 billion ($2.16 billion) military aid package for Ukraine, after weeks of attempting to drum up support for his initiative to send Western troops as peacekeepers to the country. The new arms will include surface-to-air missiles, armored vehicles and drones, the French leader said.</p>
<p>Saturday’s anti-war rally was organized by former right-wing National Rally politician Florian Philippot and his party, The Patriots.</p>
<p>Thousands of protesters could be seen marching through the French capital, chanting slogans such as <em>“Macron, we don’t want your war!”</em> and <em>“Let's quickly leave NATO!”</em> in video captured by RT.</p>

<p>Many could also be seen waving placards with the motto <em>“Macron, we will not die for Ukraine.”</em></p>

<p><em>“A mad crowd for #Peace… Thousands and thousands of French people are shouting ‘Macron, resign!’ in the streets of Paris right now!”</em> Philippot wrote on X on Saturday.</p>

<p>The Patriots protested in the French capital earlier this month after Macron proposed deploying France’s nuclear weapons in other European allied states, citing uncertainty over Washington’s commitment to the continent.</p>

<p>On Thursday, following an international summit in Paris, Macron announced a French-British plan to push for the deployment of troops to Ukraine as a <em>“reassurance force”</em> in the event of a ceasefire between Kiev and Moscow. Macron first touched on the idea of sending Western troops into Ukraine last February.</p>
<p>Russia has categorically ruled out agreeing to NATO troops being deployed to the conflict zone. Troops from the US-led military bloc, even under the guise of peacekeepers, would amount to direct NATO participation in the conflict, according to Moscow.</p>

title: No ‘little brother’: Russia charts its own course with China
author: ;RT
hash: �������?��p�
content:
<p><strong>The myth of Moscow’s alleged economic over-reliance on Beijing</strong></p>
            
                        
            <p>As Russian-Chinese relations continue to deepen, so too does the rhetoric surrounding them. On the political front, ties between the two countries are stronger than ever, with regular high-level exchanges and near-total alignment on major global issues, from Ukraine to the Middle East to the reform of international institutions. But when it comes to economic cooperation, the narrative often takes a more skeptical turn, especially within Russia. The dominant theme: fear of over-dependence on Beijing.</p>
<p>This anxiety is not entirely surprising, given the dramatic growth in trade between the two countries. In 2021, China accounted for just 18% of Russia’s trade. By the end of 2024, that number is expected to reach 34%, with China representing 41% of imports and 30% of exports. This leap coincides with a sharp contraction in trade with the European Union, which has dropped from over half of Russia’s total trade to under 20% in just three years. In this context, the shift toward China appears not only logical but inevitable.</p>
<p>Yet the numbers alone do not support the notion of dangerous over-dependence. For one, Russia’s trade portfolio is becoming more diversified, not less. Trade with India, Turkey, and the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) is also rising, in some cases even faster than with China. What we are witnessing is not a one-sided dependency, but a recalibration of Russia’s economic geography. Until 2022, Russia’s external trade remained disproportionately tilted westward. That imbalance is now being corrected.</p>
<p>More importantly, fears that Russia is becoming China’s economic ‘little brother’ are not substantiated by the actual structure of trade or investment. In fact, Russia consistently runs a trade surplus with China, a rarity among China’s global trading partners. China is the largest trading partner of over 120 countries, including the United States until recently. Russia is hardly an outlier in this regard.</p>
<p>The notion of vassal-like dependence often hinges on the idea that Chinese goods have flooded the Russian market. In one area – automobiles – this is partially true. Chinese brands now dominate the Russian car market following the departure of Western manufacturers. However, this dominance is unlikely to be permanent. The Russian government has already taken steps to boost domestic production and may raise import duties or offer incentives to encourage competition from returning Japanese and Korean firms.</p>

    </blockquote>


    

<p>In other sectors, the picture is more nuanced. Imports of industrial equipment from China have grown significantly, but this trend is less a sign of dependence than a pragmatic response to Western sanctions. Moreover, import substitution policies and grey-market routes for Western equipment have made the landscape more varied, not less.</p>
<p>Investment cooperation tells an even clearer story. While the bilateral agenda includes some 80 planned projects worth over $200 billion, only 50 have materialized, with a total investment of just 780 billion rubles. Crucially, China has shown little interest in gaining controlling stakes in Russian natural resource sectors. Nor has it sought to enter high-tech industries. Even in the auto sector, Chinese firms have taken a gradual approach to localization. Despite shared interests, progress on major projects like the Power of Siberia-2 gas pipeline remains slow.</p>
<p>This cautious approach is partly due to concerns about secondary sanctions. Chinese investors are wary of becoming entangled in geopolitical disputes and prefer to err on the side of caution. As a result, Chinese capital has not flooded into Russia in the way some feared. On the contrary, one could argue that China’s economic footprint in Russia is too small, not too large.</p>
<p>The old adage that economic ties lag behind political ones still holds true, even in the post-2022 environment. And while deepening ties with China is crucial, so too is expanding economic relations with other parts of the world – India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and potentially, in the long term, Japan and South Korea. Such diversification will not only strengthen Russia’s global economic standing but also enhance its bargaining power in Beijing.</p>
<p>To make Russian-Chinese economic relations more robust and less vulnerable to external shocks, structural improvements are needed. This includes developing parallel financial systems to withstand sanctions, creating reliable logistics corridors, expanding cross-border cooperation zones, and finally implementing a long-discussed free trade agreement. These steps would embed the relationship within a more resilient and functional institutional framework.</p>
<p>Politically and geographically, China is Russia’s most important partner for the 21st century. The task ahead is not to fear this reality but to shape it to mutual advantage. The real danger lies not in dependency, but in failing to make the most of a historic opportunity.</p>

<p data-sanitized-class="article__subhead"><em>The protesters are trying to escalate a movement targeting Tesla dealerships and vehicles in opposition to Musk.</em></p>
</div><div aria-live="polite" aria-atomic="true" readability="121.48904317639">
<p>Crowds <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/3/26/kill-the-boer-the-anti-apartheid-song-musk-ties-to-white-genocide">protesting</a> billionaire Elon Musk’s purge of the US government under President Donald Trump have been congregating outside Tesla dealerships throughout the US, and in some cities in Europe, in the latest attempt to put a dent in the enormous fortune of the world’s richest man.</p>
<p>The protesters are trying to escalate a movement targeting Tesla dealerships and vehicles in opposition to Musk’s role as the head of the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, where he’s gained access to sensitive data and shut down entire agencies as he attempts to slash government spending.</p>

<p>Most of Musk’s estimated $340bn fortune consists of the stock he holds in the electric vehicle company that he continues to run while also working alongside Trump.</p>
<p>Tesla Takedown has been organised by a group that includes disillusioned owners of the carmaker’s vehicles, celebrities such as actor John Cusack, and at least one Democratic Party lawmaker, Representative Jasmine Crockett from Dallas.</p>
<p>Earlier protests were somewhat sporadic.</p>
<div data-sanitized-class="container--ads in-article-ads">
<p><span data-sanitized-class="ads__title">Advertisement</span></p>
</div>
<p>But Saturday’s demonstrations mark the first attempt to surround all 277 of the carmaker’s showrooms and service centres in the US in hopes of deepening a recent decline in the company’s sales.</p>
<p>In front of the New York store in Manhattan, between 500 and 1,000 people gathered, demanding Musk’s resignation from government.</p>
<p>The protesters were gathered at the call of environmentalists from Planet Over Profit, who believe that “stopping Musk will save lives and protect our democracy.”</p>
<p>For Amy Neifeld, a 70-year-old American psychologist who had not taken to the streets since the anti-Vietnam War protests in the 1970s, Elon Musk is leading the United States towards “fascism”.</p>
<p>“I’m Jewish and I grew up with a deep awareness of what fascism is. And it’s only gotten worse since the election” of Donald Trump, she told the AFP news agency.</p>
<p>“We have to do something very quickly, because he’s moving very quickly,” Neifeld added.</p>

<p>One of the signs displayed at the London protest showed a photo of Musk next to an image of Adolf Hitler making the Nazi salute — a gesture that Musk has been accused of reprising shortly after Trump’s January 20 inauguration.</p>

</div>
<p>A person in a tyrannosaurus rex costume held another sign with a picture of Musk’s straight-arm gesture that said, “You thought the Nazis were extinct. Don’t buy a Swasticar.”</p>
<p>“We just want to get loud, make noise, make people aware of the problems that we’re facing,” Cam Whitten, an American who showed up at the London protest told The Associated Press.</p>
<p>Some people opposed to Musk have gone beyond protests and set Tesla vehicles on fire and committed other acts of vandalism that US Attorney General Pam Bondi has decried as “domestic terrorism”. Musk indicated he was dumbfounded by the attacks during a March 20 company meeting and said the vandals should “stop acting psycho”.</p>
<p>Crockett and other Tesla Takedown supporters have been stressing the importance of Saturday’s protests to remain peaceful.</p>
<p>But police were investigating a fire that destroyed seven Tesla vehicles in northwestern Germany early Saturday morning. It was not immediately clear if the blaze, which was extinguished by firefighters, was related to the Tesla Takedown protests.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, a growing number of consumers who bought Tesla vehicles before Musk allied himself with Trump have been looking to sell or trade in their cars, while others have slapped on bumper stickers seeking to distance themselves from the billionaire’s efforts to prune or shut down government agencies.</p>
<p>But Musk did not appear concerned about an extended slump in sales of new Tesla cars in his March 20 address to employees. He reassured the workers that the company’s Model Y, which is undergoing a refresh, would remain “the best-selling car on Earth again this year.”</p>

<p><strong>Kiev’s forces have launched a series of strikes targeting power lines in Belgorod Region, the Defense Ministry has said</strong></p>
            
                        
            <p>Ukrainian forces are increasingly targeting Russian civilian energy infrastructure despite claims by Kiev that it is abiding by a moratorium on strikes, the Defense Ministry has said. According to the Russian military, more than 9,000 people have been left without electricity in Belgorod Region alone after a series of Ukrainian attacks.</p>
<p>Kiev has launched drone attacks against Belgorod Region since early Saturday morning, according to a statement published by the ministry on Telegram. It said the strikes mostly targeted power lines and transformer substations.</p>
<p>Serious damage to two power lines caused major blackouts in two areas, affecting 1,100 and over 8,000 local residents respectively, according to the ministry’s data.</p>
<p>The series of strikes comes after a major attack on the Sudzha pipeline in neighboring Kursk Region on Friday. The facility was <em>“de facto destroyed”</em> by a Ukrainian HIMARS attack, the Defense Ministry reported.</p>

    </blockquote>


    

<p>The Russian Foreign Ministry added to the report, saying British specialists set the coordinates for the US-made missile system using French satellites.</p>
<p>The actions of the Ukrainian military show that they have <em>“only increased the number of attacks on energy infrastructure in Kursk and Belgorod regions,”</em> the Defense Ministry said in its post on Saturday, adding that it contradicts statements made by Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky.</p>

        </figure>
    </blockquote>


    

<p>On Wednesday, the Ukrainian leader said that no Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure happened that day, and claimed that Kiev has not targeted Russian power facilities either. The Russian Defense Ministry has regularly reported Ukrainian strikes on energy infrastructure over the past several weeks.</p>
<p>Moscow ordered a halt to attacks on Ukrainian energy targets on March 18, following a phone call between presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Kiev also agreed to a US-proposed 30-day partial ceasefire following talks between Ukrainian and American delegations in Saudi Arabia on March 15. However, Ukraine did not make any public statements about ordering its troops not to target Russian power infrastructure.</p>
<p>On Friday, the Kremlin claimed Kiev is losing control over its own military. <em>“If Ukraine had joined the [ceasefire] and gave relevant orders to its Armed Forces, they are apparently not being followed,”</em> Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, pointing to the recent attacks.</p>

<p>Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &amp; Flom LLP will dedicate the services to causes supported by both the firm and the Trump administration, including assisting veterans and other public servants, ensuring fairness in the U.S. justice system, and combating anti-Semitism.</p>

<p><strong>The firm also committed to funding at least five law graduates under a fellowship dedicated to supporting the causes each year and employing merit-based hiring practices, vowing not to deny representation to members of politically disenfranchised groups.</strong></p>
<p>This deal comes as President Donald Trump has, in recent weeks, issued executive orders targeting multiple major legal firms, directing government agencies to revoke their security clearances and terminate contracts. While Trump has not issued one against Skadden, the deal seems to be a way to prevent that from happening.</p>
<p><em><strong>“This was essentially a settlement,”</strong></em> President Donald Trump said in announcing the deal at a White House event.</p>
<p><em><strong>“We appreciate Skadden’s coming to the table. As you know, other law firms have likewise settled the case. And … what’s gone on is a shame.”</strong></em></p>
<p>A White House statement <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114241348699704594">explained</a> that Skadden had approached Trump about its “strong commitment to ending the weaponization of the justice system and the legal profession.”</p>
<p>Jeremy London, the firm’s executive partner, said the two parties worked “constructively” to reach an agreement.</p>

<p><em><strong>“The firm looks forward to continuing our productive relationship with President Trump and his administration. We firmly believe that this outcome is in the best interests of our clients, our people, and our firm,” London said.</strong></em></p>
<p>News of the agreement came just hours after two other law firms, WilmerHale and Jenner &amp; Block, <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/law-firms-sue-over-trump-orders-removing-their-security-clearances-5832859">sued</a> the president for ordering the retraction of their security clearances and the termination of their government contracts.</p>
<p>In WilmerHale’s case, Trump cited the firm’s employment of former special counsel Robert Mueller and his aides as one of the top reasons for the move.</p>
<p>Mueller “wielded the power of the Federal Government to lead one of the most partisan investigations in American history,” Trump <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/addressing-risks-from-wilmerhale/">wrote</a> in the executive order, referring to Mueller’s investigation of claims Trump colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election. Those claims proved to be unfounded.</p>
<p>Jenner, on the other hand, hired Andrew Weissmann, Mueller’s top prosecutor.</p>
<p>In separate legal actions filed in the District of Columbia, the two firms accused the administration of punishing its political opposition and asked the court to find Trump’s orders unconstitutional.</p>
<p>Paul Weiss, another Wall Street law firm, brokered a deal with the White House last week to provide $40 million in free legal services for mutually supported causes. In return, the administration <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/addressing-remedial-action-by-paul-weiss/">revoked</a> an order similar to those targeting Jenner and WilmerHale.</p>

<p>Just one day after the Federal Aviation Administration's leader told a Senate hearing that <a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/political/faa-admits-it-missed-dangerous-patterns-leading-dc-plane-crash-vows-fixes">his organization has to "do better"</a> in identifying safety threats like the conditions that precipitated January's deadly midair collision at Reagan National Airport, <strong>a Delta passenger jet had a near-miss with a US Air Force jet near that very same airport.</strong> </p>
<p>The news was all the more disturbing given <strong>the January disaster that killed 67 people also involved a military aircraft</strong> -- a US Army Black Hawk helicopter on a night training run. In Friday's near-miss, the pilots of a Delta Airbus A319 that had just taken off for Minneapolis - Saint Paul received a warning about <strong>a USAF T-38</strong> that had come from Langley Air Force Base in Hampton, Virginia. The aircraft was one of four of its type that were <strong>heading for a flyover at Arlington National Cemetery</strong>. (<em>"Is this trip near Reagan National really necessary?" </em>) </p>

Air traffic controllers issued instructions to both aircraft to help them avoid a collision. </p>

<p>Afterward, the Delta pilot asked the tower to confirm the dangerousness of the situation. <strong>“On that departure … was there an actual aircraft about 500 ft below us as we came off of DCA?”</strong> the pilot was heard asking via LiveATC.net audio reviewed by <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/28/us/delta-military-jet-close-call-dca/index.html"><em>CNN</em></a>. “Delta 2983, affirmative,” replied the Departure air traffic controller. Were it not for the evasive action, Friday could have brought an even worse disaster than the January collision: <strong>The Delta plane was carrying 131 passengers</strong>, two pilots and three flight attendants.   </p>

<p>National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy said January's crash should have been avoided, given the plainly hazardous conditions that had long been observed around DCA -- with <strong>85 close calls in the three years</strong> leading up to the catastrophe.    </p>
<p>Following Friday's incident, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar reacted with disbelief that military aircraft were still coming close to civilian airliners."Unbelievably dangerous and thank God people are safe," she posted on <a href="https://x.com/amyklobuchar/status/1905826253208219865">X</a>. <strong>"My first call to Department of Defense tomorrow: Why are your planes flying 500 feet below passenger jets full of Minnesotans</strong> headed from DCA to my state?"</p>

<p><a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/university-of-michigan-guts-dei-programs-5833032?utm_source=partner&amp;utm_campaign=ZeroHedge"><em>Authored by Bill Pan via The Epoch Times,</em></a></p>
<p><strong>The University of Michigan said it will eliminate all diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts following the Trump administration’s warning that colleges with discriminative policies could lose federal funding.</strong></p>
<p>The changes, <a href="https://president.umich.edu/news-communications/messages-to-the-community/evolving-our-approach-to-dei-and-moving-forward-together/">announced</a> on Thursday, include shutting down two diversity offices and ending its “DEI 2.0 Strategic Plan.” This follows earlier steps to phase out DEI-related requirements, such as removing mandatory DEI statements in admissions, hiring, promotions, awards, and performance reviews.</p>
<p>The university said individuals who previously worked on DEI initiatives across various schools, colleges, and departments will now <strong>“refocus their full effort on their core responsibilities.”</strong></p>

<p><a data-image-external-href data-image-href="/s3/files/inline-images/image%20-%202025-03-29T115524.989.jpg?itok=JE97lA7N" data-link-option="0" href="https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/image%20-%202025-03-29T115524.989.jpg?itok=JE97lA7N"><picture><img data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d7b2d80b-9018-4997-a862-e0d6d5bd40cb" data-responsive-image-style="inline_images" height="333" width="500" src="https://assets.zerohedge.com/s3fs-public/styles/inline_image_mobile/public/inline-images/image%20-%202025-03-29T115524.989.jpg?itok=JE97lA7N" alt typeof="foaf:Image" data-sanitized-class="inline-images image-style-inline-images"></picture></a></p>
<p><strong>“These decisions have not been made lightly,”</strong> University of Michigan President Santa Ono and three top administrators said in a joint statement. <em><strong>“We recognize the changes are significant and will be challenging for many of us, especially those whose lives and careers have been enriched by and dedicated to programs that are now pivoting.</strong></em></p>
<p>“We are deeply grateful for the meaningful contributions of leaders, faculty, and staff who have advanced our ongoing efforts to create an ever-more inclusive and respectful community.”</p>
<h2>Federal Pressure Intensifies</h2>
<p>The changes come as the Trump administration ramped up the enforcement of federal anti-discrimination laws, including Title VI and Title IX, which prohibit discrimination based on race and sex, respectively, in education settings.</p>
<p>The University of Michigan specifically pointed to a <a href="https://www.ed.gov/media/document/dear-colleague-letter-sffa-v-harvard-109506.pdf">“Dear Colleague” letter</a> from the U.S. Department of Education’s civil rights division. The Feb. 14 letter warned that the 2023 Supreme Court decision that declared the use of racial preferences in college admissions unconstitutional would now extend to all university policies and programs beyond admissions.</p>

<p><strong>“At its core, the test is simple: If an educational institution treats a person of one race differently than it treats another person because of that person’s race, the educational institution violates the law,”</strong> the letter stated.</p>
<p>Moving forward, the university said it plans to increase investments in student-facing programs, including financial aid, mental health support, academic advising and counseling, and a scholarship for students from foster care.</p>
<h2>Massive DEI Spending Under Scrutiny</h2>
<p>The university has been known for a sprawling and costly DEI bureaucracy. According to an <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WbFztg7z0oQKdNlL73L6q9FeMaCSucq0/edit?tab=t.0">analysis</a> by UMich economics professor Mark Perry, as of January 2024, the university spent $30.7 million each year on salaries for 241 employees who work in DEI offices or have the keywords diversity, equity, or inclusion in their job titles. This figure does not account for additional staff and resources spent to support those DEI employees.</p>
<p>A New York Times investigation published in October 2024 further <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/16/magazine/university-of-michigan-dei.html">estimated</a> that UMich spent $250 million on DEI since 2016. The Times noted that despite this enormous investment, race- and gender-based grievances on campus actually increased, with students filing more complaints than ever before.</p>
<p>Following the Times report, UMich published a lengthy <a href="https://odei.umich.edu/2024/10/18/a-battle-for-truth-setting-the-record-straight-on-dei-at-u-m/">response</a> in which Chief Diversity Officer Tabbye Chavous accused the article of being “filled with misinformation, disinformation, and, sadly, sexism.”</p>
<p><strong>Some officials agreed that the university’s massive DEI spending failed to directly benefit students.</strong> Jordan Acker, one of the six Democrats on UMich’s eight-member board of regents, said on Thursday that the resources have not been effectively used to achieve its goals.</p>

<p>“Over the past several years, the university has spent 250 million on diversity efforts, but yet the population of minority students at UM has grown little, and much of the resources we’ve devoted to these efforts have gone into administrative overhead, not outreach to students,” he <a href="https://x.com/JordanAckerMI/status/1905384340307001548">said</a> in a statement on social media platform X.</p>
<p><strong>“At Michigan, the focus of our diversity efforts needs to be meaningful change, not bureaucracy.”</strong></p>

National Security Adviser Mike Waltz threatened on March 23 that Iran had to change its foreign policy and “walk away completely” from its nuclear program, or “there will be consequences.” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly been bending the Trump administration’s ear that Iran can be “decapitated” without a full-scale war, the way the IDF did with Hezbollah and the way the Assad government in Syria was toppled.This is insanity – nuclear tinged insanity.The U.S. aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson is on its way to the Southwest Asia theater. Two other U.S. aircraft carriers – the USS Nimitz and the USS Gerald R. Ford – are preparing to deploy, although their destination has not been disclosed. At the same time, there are credible media accounts that the U.S. just deployed anywhere from five to seven B-2 stealth bombers from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri to the island of Diego Garcia in the middle of the Indian Ocean, with their accompanying air refueling tankers. Military experts have noted that this a very large and highly unusual deployment, which appears to be linked to an impending military operation.Yet President Trump himself has been clear: “We believe that the job of the United States military is not to wage endless regime change wars around the globe, senseless wars,” he stated in a May 2024 speech.He was right then; and he should listen to himself now.Launching an attack on Iran, besides blowing up the entire Middle East, would destroy the crucial talks underway between the United States and Russia, which have the potential for bringing peace not only to Ukraine, but which also open the door to a much-needed new security and development architecture – in that region, and even globally.Who in the world would want to sink the promising Trump-Putin negotiations? The British, that’s who. The very same British who are doing everything in their power to prevent peace in Ukraine, and maintain their financial and political empire globally.Recall the fateful report issued on Dec. 18, 2018 by the British House of Lords Select Committee on International Relations, titled “U.K. Foreign Policy in a Shifting World Order.” The Lords there pronounced that President Donald Trump was their number-one problem in the world, and openly stated that his removal was critical to their interests. Above all, they said, a second Trump Presidency had to be avoided at all costs, in order to preserve the US-UK “Special Relationship” through which they intended to keep running the world.<br><br><span>(Feed generated with <a href="https://fetchrss.com/" target="_blank">FetchRSS</a>)</span>

It is clear that the most important dynamic taking place comes from the series of talks between the United States and Russia to restore constructive diplomacy. The negotiations in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia over the past few days, produced a pair of statements, that Russia, the United States, and Ukraine agreed to, namely, “to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes in the Black Sea,” they have agreed to “develop measures for implementing … [the] agreement to ban strikes against energy facilities of Russia and Ukraine.”Not just a day after that agreement was signed that Ukraine began attacking energy facilities on Russian territory, in what was a clear message by its British controllers that no peace agreement would be allowed.Just last morning, HIMARS missiles were fired from Ukraine into Russia, targeting a gas metering station in Sudzha. According to Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova: “There is reason to believe that the targeting and guidance for these strikes were conducted via French satellite systems, while the input of coordinates and launch procedures were managed by British specialists.” It was part of the Ukrainian “terror” campaign, she said, stressing, “The command was issued from London.”The Russians have a clear understanding of the British role behind sabotaging peace agreements in Ukraine. Besides their intervention in Europe, they also intend to spring a trap for the Trump Administration to go to war with Iran, which wouldn’t lead to Iran’s destruction, but Trump’s presidency itself. Consider the absurdity of the so-called “Signalgate” narrative, which is that a leak of an incredibly sensitive discussion on a public app about carrying an ill-conceived bombing of Yemen was picked up by Jeffrey Goldberg, a pro-war reporter with the Atlantic, who just happened to be on the same group chat where it was discussed by Trump officials. This is precisely being done by British intelligence to disrupt the Trump team, and destroy the talks taking place which would move the world away from thermonuclear war.The Manhattan Town Hall discussion will focus on the British role today. Harley Schlanger, frequent guest and spokesman of the LaRouche Organization will be on. He’ll be joined by Alex Krainer, co-founder of TrendCompass.net and founder of Krainer Analytics. He is the author of "Grand Deception: The Truth about Bill Browder, the Magnitsky Act and Anti-Russian Sanctions", which provides an in-depth look at Anglo-American operations against Putin and Russia.<br><br><span>(Feed generated with <a href="https://fetchrss.com/" target="_blank">FetchRSS</a>)</span>

<p data-sanitized-class="sc-iNIeMn cOQdtk">Les Canadiens Piper Gilles et Paul Poirier ont décroché l'argent en danse pour une deuxième année d'affilée aux Championnats du monde de patinage artistique, samedi à Boston.</p>
<p data-sanitized-class="sc-iNIeMn cOQdtk">Les Américains Madison Chock et Evan Bates ont été couronnés pour la troisième fois de suite, au grand plaisir de la foule réunie au TD Garden, grâce à leur note cumulative de 222,06. Ils ont éclipsé leurs rivaux en dominant à la fois la danse rythmique et le programme libre.</p>
<p data-sanitized-class="sc-iNIeMn cOQdtk">Gilles et Poirier ont pris la 2e place dans les deux volets pour conclure les mondiaux avec un pointage de 216,54, largement supérieur à celui des médaillés de bronze, les Britanniques Lilah Fear et Lewis Gibson (207,11).</p>

<p data-sanitized-class="sc-iNIeMn cOQdtk">Malgré leur excellente performance, les deux danseurs avaient des sentiments mitigés après avoir tout donné sur la patinoire. Ils visaient l'or après avoir obtenu l'argent l'an dernier, de même que le bronze en 2021 et en 2023.</p>

<p>There have been more large protests in Israel, demanding that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conclude a captives-for-prisoners exchange deal with Hamas.</p>
<p>There are about 58 captives still held in Gaza, 34 of whom the Israeli military says are dead.</p>

<p>Family members of the captives and those supporting them rallied, with tensions rising between them and police in Tel Aviv on Saturday.</p>

They said they were holding the Israeli government responsible for their lives.</p>
<p>Saturday’s protest comes as Hamas’s armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, released a video titled, Time is Running Out, purporting to show an Israeli captive in Gaza calling on the government to secure his release, the second such video shared by the group within days.</p>
<p>The Hostages and Missing Families Forum campaign group identified the man as Elkana Bohbot, who was taken captive from the site of a music festival in southern Israel during Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack that led to Israel’s latest campaign against Gaza.</p>

<p>Barcelona coach Hansi Flick said he is focused on winning games despite the threat of a potential punishment for an ineligible lineup rumbling on in the background.</p>
<p>Flick selected Inigo Martinez in the 3-0 win over Osasuna in LaLiga on Thursday, after the Spanish defender had withdrawn injured from the national team squad for their recent Nations League matches.</p>
<p>Osasuna appealed to the Spanish football federation on Friday over Martinez being ineligible, citing FIFA rules regarding players who have not joined up with their national teams when called on.</p>
<p>“We won three points and this is my focus, so I’m focusing on the next match against Girona,” Flick told a news conference on Saturday, a day before leaders Barcelona host Girona in LaLiga.</p>
<p>“The other thing is not in my hands, it’s not about me.”</p>
<p>FIFA rules state that players cannot appear for their clubs within five days of the last national team match, if they did not join the squad when called upon, without the federation’s permission.</p>

<p>Martinez played 90 minutes against Osasuna after pulling out of international duty with knee discomfort, as Barcelona took a three-point lead at the top of the table.</p>
<p>The match was played on Thursday after being initially postponed from March 8, when a Barca club doctor died, with neither side wanting to play it this week but both having appeals against it rejected.</p>

title: Judge blocks Trump from firing Voice of America staff
author: ;RT

<p><strong>The president slashed federal funding of the US media arm, described by an adviser as “a giant rot and burden to the American taxpayer”</strong></p>
            
                        
            <p>A US district judge has issued a restraining order against President Donald Trump’s effort to downsize the federal agency that bankrolls Voice of America, a WWII-era broadcaster later retooled by the CIA into a Cold War propaganda weapon.</p>
<p>In mid-March, Trump <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/614266-trump-agency-propaganda-media/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ordered sweeping cuts</a> at VOA’s parent organization, the US Agency for Global Media (USAGM), as part of a broader push to reduce federal waste and realign foreign aid and other soft power initiatives with the administration’s ‘America First’ policies. The executive order also targeted Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), another USAGM entity founded in the early 1950s as two separate CIA front organizations.</p>
<p>In response, VOA journalists, unions, and press freedom NGOs sued the agency and its leadership, warning that the broadcaster – which has <em>“promoted America’s democratic ideals abroad since World War II”</em> – would suffer <em>“irreparable harm,”</em> while its foreign employees could face <em>“deportation to their home countries.”</em></p>

<p>On Friday, District Judge James Paul Oetken issued a <a href="https://democracyforward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/VOA-Order-granting-TRO.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">temporary restraining order</a> barring the Trump administration from terminating the contracts of around 1,200 VOA employees who were placed on leave earlier this month.</p>
<p>The judge prohibited USAGM from implementing Trump’s order and from <em>“proceeding with any further attempt to terminate, reduce-in-force, place on leave, or furlough any USAGM employee or contractor.”</em> The ruling also blocks the agency from terminating federal grants or contracts, or shutting down existing offices.</p>
<p>Trump-appointed USAGM adviser Kari Lake defended the cuts earlier this month, calling the agency <em>“not salvageable.”</em> </p>
<p><em>“From top to bottom, this agency is a giant rot and burden to the American taxpayer – a national security risk for this nation – and irretrievably broken,”</em> she said.</p>

    </p>


    

<p>Elon Musk, Trump’s government efficiency czar, also advocated for shutting down VOA and RFE/RL in February. The CIA-linked broadcasters had value during the Cold War, he argued, but <em>“nobody listens to them anymore.”</em> He described the outlets as <em>“radical left crazy people talking to themselves while torching $1B a year of US taxpayer money.”</em></p>

</div><div aria-live="polite" aria-atomic="true" readability="102.74844649022">
<p>Kylian Mbappe scored twice to help Real Madrid outgun a feisty Leganes 3-2 and pull level with Barcelona at the top of LaLiga, while Atletico Madrid fell further behind in the title race.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/liveblog/2025/3/29/live-real-madrid-vs-leganes-laliga">match between</a> the defending champions and a team trying to stave off relegation was billed as an easy three points for Madrid. It was anything but as Leganes showed much more bite than expected at the Santiago Bernabeu.</p>

<p>After Mbappe put Madrid ahead from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute, Leganes stunned the home crowd by hitting right back after the restart. Left-back Valentin Rosier sprinted clear on the right flank and crossed for Oscar Rodríguez, whose poorly-hit shot was pushed home by Diego Garcia.</p>
<p>The minnow from southern Madrid did it again in the 41st. This time, Rosier stole the ball from Brahim Diaz and raced down the centre of the pitch before he played Rodríguez clear, who squared the ball for Dani Raba to take the lead.</p>

<p>Jude Bellingham equalised when he rushed in to finish off a rebound. Mbappe made it a brace from a free kick, slicing the ball around the barrier and just inside the post after a rigorous foul call that was protested by Leganes.</p>
<p>Mbappe has 22 goals in LaLiga, only one fewer than Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski.</p>

<h2 data-sanitized-id="atletico-madrid-stumble-again-in-laliga-title-race">Atletico Madrid stumble again in LaLiga title race</h2>
<p>Atletico’s 1-1 draw at Espanyol left it six points behind the frontrunners with nine rounds left after this weekend.</p>
<p>Cesar Azpilicueta put Atletico ahead in the 38th with a spectacular volley of a clearance by an Espanyol defender that fell to him outside the area. The 35-year-old defender celebrated his first career goal in LaLiga.</p>
<p>Espanyol pressed in the second half and Javi Puado converted a penalty to level in the 71st after Clement Lenglet pulled down Leandro Cabrera while disputing a cross in the box.</p>
<p>Atletico led the league in January and looked poised to have their best shot at claiming the title they had won twice under Diego Simeone’s decade in charge. But the wheels have come off in March. The slip at Espanyol followed back-to-back losses to Getafe and Barcelona, interspersed with two losses to Madrid in the Champions League round of 16.</p>
<h2 data-sanitized-id="atletico-left-fuming-but-griezmann-goes-past-messi">Atletico left fuming but Griezmann goes past Messi</h2>
<p>Atletico goalkeeper Jan Oblak did not hide his disappointment, especially after the club spent big in the summer to put together arguably the deepest squad in Spain.</p>
<div data-sanitized-class="container--ads in-article-ads">
<p><span data-sanitized-class="ads__title">Advertisement</span></p>
</div>
<p>“Two more important points have gotten away from us. It is tough to understand why this is happening,” Oblak said. “We talked in January about how we needed to be consistent to compete for the title and we are not showing it. The teams behind us are closing and the teams at the top are getting away.”</p>
<p>Oblak said Atletico must regroup for Wednesday’s Copa del Rey second-leg semifinal against Barcelona because “we want to at least fight for that title”.</p>
<p>Simeone himself said the title will be decided “in the last five rounds”.</p>
<p>Espanyol, in 15th place, was undefeated in nine home games, a run which included a shock win over Real Madrid.</p>
<p>Atletico defender Robin Le Normand had to be substituted after knocking heads with an Espanyol player.</p>
<p>Atletico forward Antoine Griezmann set a new record for games played by a foreigner in LaLiga with 521 appearances. The French forward surpassed the 520 games played by Lionel Messi of Argentina.</p>
<p>Mikel Oyarzabal and Sergio Gómez scored as Real Sociedad beat last-placed Valladolid 2-1.</p>
<p>Rayo Vallecano left Alaves in the relegation zone with a 2-0 win on the road in Vitoria.</p>

<p>The Trump administration ordered two Pentagon intelligence agencies—the NGA and NRO—to use spy satellites to monitor the U.S.-Mexico border in a broader effort to curb illegal immigration and drug trafficking., <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-administration-directs-spy-satellite-agencies-surveil-us-mexico-border-2025-03-27/?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=Newsletter&amp;utm_campaign=One-Essential-Read&amp;utm_term=032825&amp;lctg=6082d23b96cf6b58e00d789c">according to Reuters</a>.</p>
<p>The involvement of spy agencies and troop deployments highlights the growing militarization of the southern border, where Trump declared a national emergency.</p>
<p>Though the extent of satellite surveillance over U.S. territory remains unclear, the NGA confirmed forming a task force for the border mission, while the NRO said it was working with the Pentagon and intelligence community to secure the border.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-administration-directs-spy-satellite-agencies-surveil-us-mexico-border-2025-03-27/?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=Newsletter&amp;utm_campaign=One-Essential-Read&amp;utm_term=032825&amp;lctg=6082d23b96cf6b58e00d789c">Reuters report</a> says that their role stems from Trump’s executive orders targeting illegal crossings, trafficking, and the deportation of up to 14 million undocumented immigrants.</p>

<p>Trump, who made immigration central to his 2016 campaign, is now expanding the use of military tools—originally designed for foreign conflict—to the U.S.-Mexico border.</p>
<p><a data-image-external-href data-image-href="/s3/files/inline-images/satellite.jpg?itok=kutDOh-w" data-link-option="0" href="https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/satellite.jpg?itok=kutDOh-w"><picture><img data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9eaf6554-f693-4559-a6a5-09a6a757a709" data-responsive-image-style="inline_images" height="346" width="500" src="https://assets.zerohedge.com/s3fs-public/styles/inline_image_mobile/public/inline-images/satellite.jpg?itok=kutDOh-w" alt typeof="foaf:Image" data-sanitized-class="inline-images image-style-inline-images"></picture></a></p>
<p>While AI and drones have long been used for border surveillance, the new initiative taps battlefield-grade capabilities. AI could scan satellite imagery for people or objects of interest, sources said, much like it does overseas.</p>
<p>Though the full scope remains unclear, experts warned the administration must address legal limits on domestic surveillance. U.S. law bars spy agencies from targeting citizens, but immigration officials can operate within 100 miles of the border.</p>
<p>“If they follow the law, these agencies should only collect on the other side of the border in foreign territory,” said national security lawyer Paul Rosenzweig. “But how they implement that, and if they do, are legitimate oversight questions.”</p>
<p>An intelligence official insisted all surveillance is “legal and authorized” and respects Americans’ privacy. The NGA and NRO declined to detail their border operations, citing security concerns. The CIA, sources said, has no role in domestic enforcement: “Once foreign criminals are inside the United States, they are not within the purview of the CIA.”</p>

<p>Trump has elevated border security to a top national intelligence priority, channeling more resources to it. A recent U.S. intelligence report placed transnational crime above threats from Iran or North Korea.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the National Security Council is reportedly receiving daily briefings on immigration arrests, including minors.</p>

<p><em>Credits, cubits</em>, and <em>chits</em> are a few names I recall. This is a globalist CBDC-based vision of the future. Bleak.</p>
<p>But in one of my favorite sci-fi movies, <em>Looper</em>, precious metals reign supreme as money. In that film, the inevitable breakdown in fiat currency has already occurred and hard money has made a comeback.</p>
<p>This latter scenario is far more likely. Time and time again, central banks and governments have proven they cannot be trusted with the power to create unlimited money. It doesn’t matter whether it’s paper or digital money, central bankers will print too much of it given the chance.</p>
<p>Without exception, every fiat currency in history has trended towards zero. Government digital money will be no different.</p>
<p>Voltaire wasn’t exaggerating when he said, “<em>paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value – zero</em>”. In fact, he had just experienced it first-hand following France’s disastrous fiat experiments of the 1700s.</p>
<p>It’s a question of <em>when</em>, not <em>if</em>. And time is running short.</p>

<h2><strong>Our Unusual Fiat Era is Ending</strong></h2>
<p>Since 1971, the world has been under a highly unusual 100% fiat monetary system. Not a single country operates on hard money today.</p>
<p>Never before in history was every country simultaneously using fiat. We are living through an incredibly rare, and increasingly dangerous, monetary experiment.</p>
<p>For most of history, developed countries were on a gold and/or silver standard. Coinage was default for thousands of years.</p>
<p>Switching to paper money was always a desperation move. It often happened during or after a major war, when governments were running low on cash. So they switch to fiat to pay the bills, and debase everyone’s savings in the process.</p>
<p>The world has only been on a fiat standard since 1971. Which, not coincidentally, was when the U.S. abandoned the gold standard following huge deficits from the Vietnam War.</p>
<p>It has happened hundreds of times. After it all goes horribly wrong, gold and silver make their inevitable return.</p>

<h2><strong>The Dollar Had a Good Run</strong></h2>
<p>This fiat period has lasted longer than most. The dollar has been an unusually robust paper currency, and due some clever engineering, it essentially became an oil-backed currency (<em>for many decades, oil producers would only accept dollars for oil</em>).</p>
<p>The dollar will remain an important player for some time to come. But the era of the petrodollar system, where the dollar was the only way to buy oil, is over.</p>
<p>We are entering a new multi-polar era where countries use their own currencies to buy oil and other goods. And the U.S. is no longer the sole superpower.</p>
<p>Central banks around the world are gobbling up gold and diversifying away from the dollar as debt spirals out of control.</p>
<p>We’re approaching the end game now. This is why we’ve been pounding the table on gold and silver so much lately. And it’s why we will continue to going forward.</p>

<p>Tesla derangement syndrome appears to know no boundaries.</p>
<p>The latest evidence of that is a 55-year-old Issaquah woman who was caught on video keying a Tesla and has been identified as <strong>fitness coach Kamelia Enzler, reportedly worth millions</strong>, <a href="https://mynorthwest.com/crime_blotter/keying-tesla-viral-road-rage/4068418">according to MyNorthwest.com</a>.</p>
<p>The March 20 incident, which took place at the Issaquah Commons in Washington, was captured on video and shared by journalist Jonathan Choe, quickly going viral.</p>
<p>Police say the vandalism stemmed from a road rage dispute, not a politically motivated attack on Tesla owners. Enzler is facing potential third-degree malicious mischief charges, though they have not yet been officially filed. The Issaquah City Prosecutor expects charges to be brought by Friday.</p>

<p>The Tesla driver had a child in the back seat when the March 20 incident occurred. Police say it began when Kamelia Enzler, driving a Toyota 4Runner, flipped off the driver, exited her vehicle, yelled at them, and keyed their car. Enzler owns iPeak Fitness, and her husband is a lead software engineer at Docusign, where he has worked for 12 years.</p>
<p>According to the <em>Daily Mail</em>, <strong>they live in a $1.5 million home in Bellevue, Washington</strong> which they bought for $280,000 in 1998.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://mynorthwest.com/crime_blotter/keying-tesla-viral-road-rage/4068418">MyNorthwest.com report</a> says that while this case was not politically motivated, attacks on Teslas have surged nationwide, especially since Elon Musk took a role in the Trump administration.</p>
<p>Teslas have been vandalized with swastikas in Lynnwood, set on fire in Seattle, and targeted with Molotov cocktails in Oregon, Colorado, and South Carolina. The Justice Department has vowed to prosecute those responsible.</p>
<p>Internationally, Teslas have also been burned in Berlin. Protests have erupted outside dealerships in Lynnwood, as well as in Virginia, Tennessee, NYC, and Florida, with critics linking the brand to Musk’s politics.</p>

<p>A federal judge in Massachusetts on Friday blocked the deportation of a Tufts University graduate student who was recently taken into custody by federal authorities.</p>
<p><a data-image-external-href data-image-href="/s3/files/inline-images/image%20-%202025-03-29T130541.312.jpg?itok=jAUdCLAi" data-link-option="0" href="https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/image%20-%202025-03-29T130541.312.jpg?itok=jAUdCLAi"><picture><img data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b16e7583-078a-45c1-9dd6-490bf2f53f7f" data-responsive-image-style="inline_images" height="333" width="500" src="https://assets.zerohedge.com/s3fs-public/styles/inline_image_mobile/public/inline-images/image%20-%202025-03-29T130541.312.jpg?itok=jAUdCLAi" alt typeof="foaf:Image" data-sanitized-class="inline-images image-style-inline-images"></picture></a></p>
<p>U.S. District Judge Denise Casper ruled that Rumeysa Ozturk, a 30-year-old doctoral student from Turkey, cannot be deported while Casper determines whether the court has jurisdiction over the case.</p>

<p>The Trump administration has been given until April 1 to respond to an amended petition and complaint filed by Ozturk’s lawyers, according to the two-page ruling.</p>
<p>“To allow the Court’s resolution of its jurisdiction to decide the Petition, Ozturk shall not be removed from the United States until further Order of this Court,” the judge stated.</p>
<p><strong>The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has accused Ozturk of “engaging in activities in support of Hamas,”</strong> a U.S.-designated Palestinian terrorist group that launched the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel.</p>
<p>In her ruling, Casper cited the case of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian graduate at Columbia University who was arrested and had his green card revoked <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/ice-arrests-palestinian-green-card-holder-who-led-columbia-university-protest-5822800">earlier this month</a> for allegedly leading activities aligned with Hamas. Khalil served as a lead negotiator for students during talks with university administrators over last spring’s pro-Palestinian protests on campus against Israel’s military response to the terrorist attack.</p>
<p>Khalil’s arrest followed President Donald Trump’s executive <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/additional-measures-to-combat-anti-semitism/">orders</a> prohibiting anti-Semitism in colleges and universities. His deportation was blocked after a judge ruled on March 10 that he must remain in the United States while the court determines jurisdiction.</p>
<p>Columbia University was one of many campuses in the United States where protesters set up encampments to protest the Israel–Hamas war in Gaza. Some of these <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/judge-orders-ucla-to-create-plan-to-protect-jewish-students-on-campus-5695964">protests escalated</a> into anti-Semitic rhetoric, as protesters set up barricades that prevented Jewish students from accessing certain buildings on campus. Trump has <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114139222625284782">said</a> the government will not tolerate such acts, alleging that many participants are not students but rather “paid agitators.”</p>

<p>The order in Ozturk’s case was issued in response to a petition filed by her legal counsel, which sought her release after she was detained by federal authorities outside an off-campus apartment building in Somerville, Massachusetts, on March 25.</p>
<p>Ozturk was later moved to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center in Louisiana. Government lawyers stated in a court filing that the transfer took place before a court order requiring a 48-hour notice was issued.</p>
<p>Ozturk’s lawyer, Mahsa Khanbabai, said in a <a href="https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/in-new-filing-rumeysa-ozturk-urges-court-to-protect-her-rights-release-her">statement</a> that the student’s family members were unable to reach or locate Ozturk for nearly 24 hours after her arrest.</p>
<p><em><strong>“The government must immediately release Rümeysa to continue her studies and rejoin her community,”</strong></em> the attorney stated.</p>
<p>Ozturk had previously co-authored a student newspaper <a href="https://www.tuftsdaily.com/article/2024/03/4ftk27sm6jkj">article</a> urging Tufts to sever financial ties with Israel in response to Israel’s retaliatory offensive following the Hamas-led terrorist attacks.</p>
<p>The article, published a year ago in the Tufts Daily, criticized the Tufts president for what it described as a “dismissive” response to the student government’s resolutions. These resolutions called on the university to acknowledge the “Palestinian genocide” and divest from companies that directly or indirectly do business with Israel.</p>
<p>Her lawyers have argued that Ozturk’s arrest violates her constitutional rights to free speech and due process.</p>

<p><em><strong>“No person, regardless of their immigration status, can be arrested, detained, or deported as punishment for their political views. Ideas—and certainly op-eds—are not illegal,”</strong></em> Carol Rose, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts, said in a March 28 <a href="https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/in-new-filing-rumeysa-ozturk-urges-court-to-protect-her-rights-release-her">statement</a>.</p>
<p>Secretary of State Marco Rubio <a href="https://www.state.gov/secretary-of-state-marco-rubio-and-guyanese-president-irfaan-ali-at-a-joint-press-availability/">told</a> reporters on Thursday that federal authorities have revoked Ozturk’s F-1 student visa. Rubio said that over 300 visas have been revoked so far, adding, “We do it every day.”</p>
<p><em><strong>“We gave you a visa to come and study and get a degree, not to become a social activist that tears up our university campuses. And if we’ve given you a visa and then you decide to do that, we’re going to take it away,”</strong> he said. </em></p>
<p><em><strong>“Every country in the world has a right to decide who comes in as a visitor and who doesn’t.”</strong></em></p>
<p>Tufts President Sunil Kumar <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/international-student-at-tufts-university-detained-by-immigration-authorities-5831548">said</a> in a March 25 campus-wide email that the university had no prior knowledge of Ozturk’s arrest and had not provided any information to federal authorities before she was detained.</p>
<p>The Epoch Times has reached out to the ICE and Ozturk’s legal counsel for comment and did not receive a response by publication time.</p>

title: Russian FSB experts join Serbia ‘sonic weapon’ probe – Vucic

<p><strong>Belgrade has requested Moscow’s assistance in investigating claims amplified by a Soros- and USAID-funded NGO</strong></p>
            
                        
            <p>A group of officers from Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) has arrived in Serbia and will spend at least a week investigating opposition claims regarding the use of a <em>“sonic weapon”</em> during mass protests earlier this month, President Aleksandar Vucic confirmed on Saturday.</p>
<p>The opposition Freedom and Justice Party (SSP) has accused Serbian security forces of using a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) during a rally in Belgrade on March 15. The allegations were amplified by the Belgrade Center for Security Policy (BCSP), a <a href="https://bezbednost.org/en/about-us/donors/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">USAID-funded NGO</a> which is also <a href="https://osfwb.org/albania-and-the-western-balkans-in-the-eu-by-2030/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">supported</a> by George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.</p>
<p>Though the government dismissed the accusations as baseless, it has launched a formal investigation, pledging to identify and prosecute either those responsible for using the device or those spreading what it called <em>“blatant lies.”</em></p>

<p>A team of FSB specialists <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/614845-serbia-sonic-weapon-fsb/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">invited</a> by Belgrade arrived on Friday evening and began working on Saturday morning, Vucic told the Vecernje Novosti daily. They are expected to spend seven to eight days inspecting all crowd control devices in the arsenal of Serbia’s law enforcement agencies, he added.</p>
<p>The FSB team will publicly present its findings at the conclusion of the investigation, Vucic said, expressing hope that the probe will help <em>“dispel more lies”</em> about the events in the Balkan country.</p>
<p>Serbia has seen months of protests sparked by a tragedy in Novi Sad last November, where 16 people were killed when a concrete canopy collapsed at a railway station. What began as student-led demonstrations over government negligence evolved into broader rallies against alleged corruption, <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/614299-serbia-protest-injured-vucic/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">culminating</a> in the March 15 protest in Belgrade. Described by some Western outlets as <em>“probably the biggest”</em> in Serbia’s history, the 100,000-strong demonstration resulted in more than 50 injuries and 20 arrests.</p>

    </blockquote>


    

<p>The Serbian government has alleged that the US <em>“deep state”</em> and European intelligence services are fueling the unrest in retaliation for Belgrade’s refusal to align with Western anti-Russia policies. Vucic previously accused opposition figures of collaborating with Western, Croatian, and Albanian intelligence agencies in an effort to overthrow his administration. Serbia is facing a <em>“color revolution,”</em> Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Vulin claimed last week during a visit to Moscow.</p>
<p>Moscow has voiced support for Belgrade. <em>“Russia cherishes its relationship with Serbia and is concerned about the current developments,”</em> Sergey Shoigu, the former defense minister and current secretary of the National Security Council, said. He added that Serbia can always count on Russian assistance if needed.</p>

<p data-start="1289" data-end="1716">The leak, first reported by The Atlantic on Monday, revealed that Waltz had inadvertently invited editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to a confidential Signal chat where senior administration officials were discussing airstrikes on Houthi militants in Yemen.

<p data-start="1718" data-end="1995">Trump has largely downplayed the controversy, dismissing the media response as a <em>“witch hunt”</em> and questioning the reliability of Signal. He stressed that no classified information was compromised and praised the military operation as <em>“unbelievably successful.”</em></p>
