Russia’s foreign minister refused to listen to anyone else speak at a UN Security Council meeting about the atrocities committed in Ukraine. Sergei Lavrov tried to blame Ukraine for the Kremlin invasion, saying “radical forces” and “neo-Nazis” had been in power since 2014 “as a result of an armed coup with the direct support of Western countries”. Speaking at a special meeting of the Security Council at the level of foreign ministers, he also accused Kyiv of threatening his country’s security and “brazenly trampling” on the rights of Russians....

Comment LONDON — Embattled British Prime Minister Liz Truss lost the second of her key cabinet officials on Wednesday as Home Secretary Suella Braverman quit and expressed “concerns about the direction of this government.” Earlier in the day, Truss declared she was a “fighter, not a quitter”, amid calls for her own resignation in her first public grilling in Parliament since seeing her economic agenda hammered. Truss and her government generate more headlines than Boris Johnson, who was kicked out of his party a few months ago after a series of scandals....

Describing a return to shale gas extraction in England after three years, Jacob Rees-Mogg dismissed concerns about earthquakes caused by the practice as “hysteria”, arguing it was often due to a lack of scientific understanding.

Publié à 16h26 Tommy Chouinard La Presse Selon lui, les études serviront à “améliorer” ou “améliorer” son travail. “Cela viendra peut-être (à) se confirmer” également. Mais peu importe les conclusions, et même si l’idée d’un pont comme le suggérait Éric Duhaime pouvait être pressentie, son idée est inventée. “Il y aura une étude technique et ensuite il y aura une décision politique. Voulons-nous un pont qui soit une autoroute sur l’île d’Orléans?...

The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) said a “race to the bottom” in the basic tax rate on company profits has failed to boost investment and economic growth in Britain over the past 15 years. Prime Minister Liz Truss and her chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, argue that lower corporate tax rates could unleash an investment boom in Britain to help push economic growth towards the target rate of 2.5% a year....

Signatories include the Royal College of Midwives and Liberty. The letter states: “Research into the experiences of pregnant women in English prisons found that [they] they could not access basic amenities, adequate nutrition or clean air and that the fear of possible separation from their baby or the shame of becoming an incarcerated mother was debilitating....

In the unlikely event that the Federal Reserve raises its key interest rate by 1%, it would certainly push gold lower. According to MarketWatch, “economists at brokerage Nomura Securities … became the first on Wall Street to forecast a full percentage point hike in the Fed’s short-term benchmark interest rate.” However, if the Fed raises interest rates by 75 basis points as expected, market participants could see some short-term covering amid a relief rally....

Die Wirtschaft in Griechenland hat sich seitdem stabilisiert. Wie in fast allen Ländern ließ die CoV-Krise auch 2020 das Bruttoinlandsprodukt (BIP) einbrechen. Bereits ein Jahr später ging es jedoch wieder aufwärts: 2021 wuchs das BIP im Jahresdurchschnitt um 8,3 Prozent und das Niveau der Verschuldung sank von 206 auf 193 Prozent der Wirtschaftsleistung. Was nicht darüber hinwegtäuschen kann, dass Griechenland immer noch die höchste Staatsverschuldung in der Eurozone hat....

Behati Prinsloo had a big smile on her face as she and Adam were out and about on Wednesday in Montecito, CA. At one point, Adam was holding her hand and there really isn’t any obvious sign of tension between them. It comes a day after the Maroon 5 frontman admitted he “crossed the line” by contacting multiple women online. He denies having physical relations with the women — something at least one of them, Sumner Stroh, disputes....

Russian proxies claimed he was a foreign mercenary, while Kyiv and Britain insisted he should be given protection under the Geneva Convention as an active member of Ukraine’s armed forces. Mr Ashlin was arrested along with Sean Pinner, 48, a former British army soldier, and sentenced to death by firing squad by the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic earlier this year. The Moroccan Brahim Saadoun was also convicted in the same sham trial....

It began in 1990. Stolper and Wilson were visiting Christie’s auction house to view a painting by Patrick Caulfield. Stolper is now a successful art dealer and Wilson was until recently a senior curator at Tate Britain, but then they were young men on tight budgets and Caulfield was wildly out of reach. Before they left empty-handed, though, they half-heartedly checked out a sale of rock and pop memorabilia, and the pit tab caught their eye....

The 50-strong crowds that lined the procession route booed, threw red roses and snapped pictures of the cortege on their phones....
