Sikre flugtveje skal hjælpe ukrainere længere ind i Europa
- Det er for at sikre ordentlige og regulerede migrationsveje i Europa. Det er også derfor, at jeg igen og igen har advaret imod private initiativer, hvor man henter mennesker, man ikke kender. - Jeg ved godt, at det sker af et godt hjerte, men vi har brug for, at det er myndighederne og ngo’erne, der står for sikre adgangsveje, siger Mattias Tesfaye. På mødet skal EU-landene diskutere, hvordan man sammen bedst hjælper de mere end 3,8 millioner ukrainere, der er flygtet ind i Europa efter Ruslands invasion. Heraf er mere end 2,2 millioner flygtet til Polen.

No survivors have been found, said Zhu Tao, director of aviation safety at the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), told reporters. ‘BANG, BANG’Si, 64, a villager near the crash site who declined to give his first name, told Reuters he heard a “bang, bang” at the time of the crash.

On Monday, China Eastern and two subsidiaries grounded its fleet of 737-800 planes.

East Timor presidential election headed for April run-off – Metro US
DILI (Reuters) – The top two candidates in East Timor’s presidential poll on Tuesday appeared set for a second round next month, despite the latest vote count showing a commanding lead for Nobel laureate Jose Ramos-Horta. The election body, which carries the latest count on its website, has yet to confirm the second round. But if no candidate secures more than 50% of votes, the poll will proceed to a runoff on April 19. Almost two decades after gaining independence from neighbouring Indonesia, East Timor held its fifth presidential election on Saturday – a race crowded with key resistance figures who remain prominent in the running of Asia’s youngest nation to this day. In East Timor, the president is responsible for appointing the government and also has the power to dissolve parliament.

They were really worried about her.”Speaking to PinkNews, Phelan said his daughter would frequently dehydrate herself to avoid using the toilet.

Zoo advarer: Det må I ikke!
Personalet i Odense Zoo har lagt mærke til en uheldig tendens. En del kaster gerne et stykke brød ind til især hestene, og det har de på ingen måder gavn af. Han fortæller desuden, at det er mange år siden, at gæsterne havde lov til at give den gas, når det kom til at fodre havens dyr. Haven havde så sent som i december problemer med ondt i maven hos to ponyer. Også dengang appellerede Odense Zoo til havens gæster om ikke at fodre havens dyr.

Pretend to be Sick to Get Free Sweeties on Nanjing Metro
Nanjing’s Zhujiang Lu Metro Station is now being called the sweetest station on the network. As such, Zhujiang Lu Metro Station sees more than its fair share of sick children passing through with a parent or caregiver. The program, which sees Nanjing Metro staff handing out sweeties to the sick, has been such a hit that the station itself has been decorated in colourful children’s pictures. No; a fact confirmed by Head of Nanjing Zhujiang Road subway station, Cai Yang. But before rushing to Zhujiang Lu feigning one illness or another, consider that a better, long-term bet might be shares in one of the sweetie shops inside the station.

Analysis-Debt fears overshadow China’s infrastructure push to fight economic slowdown
At a meeting in December to chart the course for 2022, top leaders called for front loading infrastructure investment to help cushion the slowdown, which looks set to worsen in the first half. “We need to step up infrastructure investment and stabilize the property sector,” Yao Jingyuan, an adviser to the cabinet, told Reuters. Local governments, meanwhile, have unveiled their own infrastructure projects, including in Shanghai and the provinces of Sichuan, Jiangsu，Zhejiang, Anhui and Hebei. The finance ministry has already issued 1.46 trillion yuan in its 2022 advance quota for local government special bonds, on top of 1.2 trillion yuan in unspent bond funds from the fourth quarter of 2021 – part of the 2021 quota of 3.65 trillion yuan. But few analysts expect a major turnaround in the sector soon, with HSBC forecasting zero to 2% growth in property investment this year.

China’s new English language song for Beijing 2022 divides opinion
BEIJING (Reuters) – A new English-language song released by Chinese state media for the Beijing Winter Olympics has divided opinion, gaining effusive praise on Chinese social media but panned by overseas critics as “cringey” and out of touch with reality. The Beijing Games are set to take place from Feb. 4 to 20. It generated a big thumbs-up on Chinese Weibo, especially by fans of Zeng, who has over 20 million followers on Weibo. The Games will be held in a “bubble” that strictly separates athletes and other Games personnel from the public. More collaborations between Chinese pop stars and state media are scheduled as the games near.

Lange udsigter for ventelister
Lange udsigter for ventelister Der vil gå lang tid, før ventelisterne på landets sygehuse er i bund efter corona og sygeplejerskestrejken. I hvert fald, hvis man ser på, hvor lang tid nogle patienter må vente på behandling. I Region Hovedstaden er det især patienter, som venter på operationer i øjenområdet og mave-tarm-området, som er hårdt ramt af lange ventetider. Regionernes formand, Stephanie Lose (V), er enig i, at det vil tage lang tid, før ventetiden er tilbage til normal. Samtidig erkender hun, at det er risikabelt at folk må vente på behandling, for de risikerer at få det værre.
