Xavi was shown a red card in the second half. “The red card marked the tie. For as much as we speak [about the match], the red card marks everything. PSG manager Luis Enrique, who enjoyed two trophy-filled spells at Barcelona as a player and manager, said he thought his team would have won even without Araújo’s sending off. Obviously, the red card is a factor, but you still have to know how to play these games and not make mistakes.

BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Hungary's far-right Our Homeland party would lay claim to a western region of Ukraine that is home to about 150,000 ethnic Hungarians if Ukraine loses its statehood due to Russia's invasion, the party's leader said late on Saturday. "Regarding the war in Ukraine, our message is very simple: immediate ceasefire, peace and a resolution through talks," Toroczkai said in a video posted on his party's website, calling for autonomy for ethnic Hungarians in western Ukraine. "If this war ends up with Ukraine losing its statehood, because this is also on the cards, then as the only Hungarian party taking this position, let me signal that we lay claim to Transcarpathia," he said, drawing applause from the crowd. Budapest has clashed with Kyiv over what it says are curbs on the rights of roughly 150,000 ethnic Hungarians to use their native tongue. Last month all European Union states except Hungary, which is also a member of NATO, agreed to start EU accession talks with Ukraine.

[1/2] European Union (EU) flags fly in front of the headquarters of the European Central Bank (ECB) in Frankfurt, Germany, July 8, 2020. The initial draft, dated Dec.4 and seen by Reuters on Monday, reads: "The European Council decides to open accession negotiations with Ukraine and with Moldova." For Bosnia, the initial draft stated the bloc was "ready to open EU accession negotiations... once the necessary degree of compliance with the membership criteria is achieved". All three decisions would require unanimous backing of the 27 EU countries. "In our perception, no conditions for Ukraine to start accession talks are met," Hungarian government spokesman Zoltan Kovacs told journalists separately on Monday.

But some worry the aid could be blocked by Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban who has touted his ties with Moscow and objected to similar support in the past. Asked for comment, Hungarian government spokesman Zoltan Kovacs said that any financial aid to Ukraine should be separate from the EU budget. "The issue of money for Ukraine will be solved one way or another, Kyiv will get EU support," the official said. BILLIONS AT STAKELast year, Hungary vetoed a similar proposal to give 18 billion euros in financial assistance to Ukraine in 2023. EU officials told Reuters last month that they were looking at unlocking at least some of that money as the bloc seeks to win Orban's vote for Ukraine.

Sept 17 (Reuters) - Gudaf Tsegay smashed the women's 5,000 metres world record and Armand Duplantis raised the bar again for the men's pole vault on Sunday, as the season-ending Eugene Diamond League meet concluded on a high. Shericka Jackson came off the turn with a massive lead to retain her women's 200 metres Diamond League championship title in 21.57, but came short of her goal to break Florence Griffith-Joyner's world record. The Jamaican Jackson won the 100 metres Diamond League championship a day earlier and finished more than half a second ahead of Ivorian Marie-Josee Ta Lou on Sunday, as Anthonique Strachan of the Bahamas took third in 22.16. The Canadian Arop finished five hundredths of a second slower and Algerian Djamel Sedjati took third in 1:43.06. Dutch World Champion Femke Bol collected her third Diamond League championship with a confident 51.98 performance in the 400 metres hurdles, as American Shamier Little took second in 53.45 and Jamaican Rushell Clayton finished third in 53.56.

Hungary is one of two countries yet to approve Sweden's bid to join NATO. Sweden — alongside neighboring Finland — requested to join NATO after Russia invaded Ukraine over a year ago, but it still needs Hungary's approval to do so. "With Finland's admission into NATO now secure, Sweden must face the music regarding its daunting attitude and former derogatory comments toward Hungary," Kovács wrote. Photo by JONATHAN NACKSTRAND/AFP via Getty ImagesKovács wrote that another reason for the hold up on Sweden's NATO bid is Stockholm's "crumbling throne of moral superiority" and a "lack of care and respect." Sweden and Finland — both of which have historically been militarily nonaligned — applied to join NATO in May 2022 and were invited to join the military alliance the following month.
BUDAPEST, March 29 (Reuters) - Hungary is holding up Sweden's admission to NATO because of grievances over criticism by Stockholm of Prime Minister Viktor Orban's policies, the Hungarian government spokesman said on Wednesday. Bridging the gap will require effort on both sides, spokesman Zoltan Kovacs said. Sweden and its neighbour Finland asked to join the NATO military alliance last year following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said last week that Turkey's parliament would also start ratifying Finland's accession. But it held off approving Sweden's bid, accusing it of harbouring Kurdish militants.
Very concerned.”“After the vaccine rolled out, the FAA secretly widened the EKG parameter range for pilots so they wouldn’t be grounded. A PR interval between 120 and 200 milliseconds (ms) is considered normal, according to standard medical practice (here ). A PR interval greater than 200ms is considered to be a first degree atrioventricular block (AV block), which means that the signals are delayed (though not blocked), as explained (here). According to the American Heart Association (here), "A first-degree heart block occurs when the electrical impulse moves through the heart’s AV node slower than normal. First-degree heart block rarely causes symptoms and may not require treatment."
As the wrangling has gone on, Hungary also blocked the 18 billion euros joint EU loan to Ukraine and the tax plan, drawing ire from other countries for what they said was an attempt to blackmail the bloc into releasing the funds to Budapest. Hungary says it opposes joint EU borrowing to support Ukraine but that it would extend bilateral aid to Kyiv instead. Budapest has also said the OECD plan for a minimum corporate tax is against Hungary's national interests. Other EU countries are divided between those willing to punish Hungary more harshly and those saying the amounts frozen would be lessened if Hungary moved on Ukraine and OECD. The rest depends on Hungary, it's their money," said one EU diplomat.
He announced this 11 days after selling an ultra-rare Pokémon card for $672,000. Martinez had recently sold an "Illustrator" Pokémon card, which is "one of the rarest Pokémon cards in existence," according to CGC Trading Cards, which is dedicated to grading popular trading cards and sets. CGC Trading Card vice president Matt Quinn described the card as "the holy grail for Pokémon card collecting" in a video shared on the company's Instagram. In July 2021, Paul paid $5.275 million for another Illustrator card, setting a new Guinness World Record for the most expensive Pokémon card sold at a private sale. Tips for trading Pokémon cardsThose looking to start investing in Pokémon trading cards should make sure to diversify, Thomas Kovacs, the owner of an online store that specializes in selling collectibles like Pokémon cards, previously told Insider.

REUTERS/Bernadett Szabo/File PhotoBUDAPEST, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Hungary and Serbia have agreed to build a pipeline to supply Serbia with Russian Urals crude via the Druzhba oil pipeline as Belgrade's shipments via Croatia fall under EU sanctions, the Hungarian government said on Monday. Serbia gets its oil via the JANAF oil pipeline from Croatia. "The new oil pipeline would enable Serbia to be supplied with cheaper Urals crude oil, connecting to the Friendship oil pipeline," Hungarian government spokesman Zoltan Kovacs tweeted. Hungary has gas reserves covering about five to six months' worth of consumption, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said.

Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orban waves at the audience during general session at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Dallas, Texas, U.S., August 4, 2022. Nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban, in power since 2010, has clashed with Brussels repeatedly over his policies that it sees as eroding democracy in the Central European country. He said Budapest would likely secure the pending deal but that would not resolve all the outstanding disagreements over other chunks of EU funds. Like most EU countries, Hungary last year submitted its blueprint on how it would use EU grants to make its economy more environmentally friendly and high-tech after the COVID-19 pandemic. It has yet to receive approval on that as well because of EU concerns over corruption, and the rule of law.
Guvernul condus de Viktor Orban a adoptat această revizuire a Constituţiei maghiare, care cuprinde dispoziţii asupra căsătoriei şi familiei, orientării sexuale, identităţii de gen şi educaţiei copiilor, scrie digi24.ro. Comisia de la Veneţia admite, însă, că decizia privind definirea căsătoriei ca fiind numai uniunea între un bărbat şi o femeie, inclusă în această reformă constituţională, „revine statului ungar şi legislatorului său''. Noul cadru legal ungar prevede că numai cuplurile căsătorite pot adopta copii, cu posibilitatea ca, prin excepţie, adopţiile să poată fi făcute şi de persoanele singure, cu condiţia unei aprobări punctuale din partea ministrului pentru afaceri familiale. Comisia de la Veneţia „s-a alăturat seriei de atacuri internaţionale împotriva Ungariei'' şi „recită propaganda stângii şi a lui George Soros'', a reacţionat după publicarea acestei opinii secretarul de stat ungar Zoltan Kovacs, potrivit agenţiei MTI. „Ungaria protejează instituţia căsătoriei ca fiind una între un bărbat şi o femeie, precum şi familia, baza supravieţuirii naţiunii'', a indicat acesta.

Agenția de reglementare maghiară a oferit o autorizare temporară vaccinului rusesc Sputnik, dar și celui dezvoltat de Oxford/AstraZeneca, a anunțat joi guvernul de la Budapesta. Ungaria este prima țară UE care aprobă vaccinul rusesc. Budapesta negociază acum un contract cu Rusia pentru a cumpăra vaccinul Sputnik, a precizat guvernul, motiv pentru care ministrul de externe va călători vineri la Moscova. Producătorul serului rusesc a spus că acesta are o eficiență apropiată de cea a vaccinurilor Pfizer/BioNTech și Moderna, adică aproximativ 92%, și a respins reticențele experților europeni. Unele sondaje, scrie BBC, sugerează că doar 7% dintre maghiari ar accepta vaccinul rusesc și doar 1% pe cel chinezesc.

''Acum putem să începem cu implementarea şi consolidarea economiilor noastre'', a scris Charles Michel pe Twitter, în timpul summitului de la Bruxelles, fără a dezvălui detaliile acordului, scrie agerpres.ro Noul instrument permite blocarea fondurilor dacă se consideră că unele încălcări ale standardelor fundamentale, precum nerespectarea independenţei sistemului judiciar, ameninţă integritatea bugetară.Preşedinţia germană a Consiliului UE ajunsese miercuri la un compromis cu Varşovia şi Budapesta, dar înaintea summitului început joi la Bruxelles nu era clar dacă toate ţările membre îl vor accepta.Compromisul mediat de Germania a implicat o declaraţie suplimentară de înţelegere asupra modului în care va funcţiona noul instrument de condiţionare a acordării fondurilor europene. Potrivit unui proiect al declaraţiei, consultat de DPA, nu va fi luată nicio hotărâre de blocare a fondurilor înainte ca CJUE (Curtea de Justiţie a UE) să se pronunţe în cazul în care o ţară decide să conteste reglementare în cauză.Declaraţia suplimentară încă are nevoie de undă verde din partea celorlalte 25 de state membre UE.Premierul polonez Mateusz Morawiecki a calificat compromisul drept o ''dublă victorie''. ''Pe de o parte, bugetul UE poate începe şi Polonia va primi 770 miliarde de zloţi (174 de milioane de euro) din el. Pe de altă parte, aceste fonduri sunt sigure întrucât mecanismul de condiţionare a fost limitat prin criterii foarte precise'', a spus Morawiecki, adăugând că acordul împiedică schimbarea ulterioară a regulilor, împotriva intereselor Poloniei.La rândul său, Zoltan Kovacs, purtător de cuvânt al premierului ungar, a scris pe Twitter: ''Am câştigat. Într-o perioadă dificilă a cu pandemie şi criză economică, nu este timp de continuat dezbaterile ideologice şi politice care ne împiedică să acţionăm''.

Programul de alimentaţie ştiinţifică a populaţiei a fost lansat în iulie 1982 la şedinţa Comitetului Politic Executiv (CPEx). De asemenea, secretarul general avea în vedere şi repartizarea diferită a a cantităţii de pâine pentru populaţie. Aşa s-a născut salamul cu soia, care a stat pe buzele tuturor şi dat a fost ca o etichetă a regimului comunist. Programul de alimentaţie sănătoasăÎn anul 1982 s-a introdus programul de alimentaţie sănătoasă, după ce Ceauşescu a constatat că românii consumau mai multe calorii decât indicaţia Organizaţiei Mondiale a Sănătăţii. Ceauşescu a invocat necesitatea alinierii la recomandările Organizaţiei Mondiale a Sănătăţii (OMS), care preconizau un consum mediu de 2.800 de calorii pentru fiecare persoană.
