"For the opening ceremony, there is a specific protocol with the state and the Paris City Hall. We're confident that we're on track, that we will reach our goals," Paris 2024 Security director Bruno Le Ray told reporters on Thursday. "The first risk is the terrorist risk. We've integrated it, unfortunately, in all security plans," said Thomas Collomb, security executive director for Paris 2024. We will be talking about it (the Paris opening ceremony) for decades," she added.

In business, that meant building a fortune by hyping a drug that ultimately failed. In politics, it means arguing he can return Trump's “America First” vision to the White House without the baggage. Ramaswamy majored in biology and participated in the campus Republican club, standing out even there as a libertarian. “I believe Donald Trump was an excellent president,” Ramaswamy said while campaigning in Atlanta. While many conservatives dislike foreign aid, Republican voters align heavily with Israel.

In Iowa, where evangelical Christians dominate the first-in-the-nation Republican presidential caucuses, Rowland and other pastors are delivering a message meant to resonate both biblically and politically. While curbing abortion has for decades energized Christian conservatives like no other issue, the attack by Hamas and Israel's response have put new pressure on Republican candidates to hew not just to traditional Republican support for Israel but to beliefs rooted in the Bible. Some Christians support Israel due to Old Testament writings that Jews are God’s chosen people and that Israel is their rightful homeland. Some evangelicals believe Israel is key to an end-times prophecy that will bring about the return of the Christian messiah. Daniel Hummel, author of “Covenant Brothers: Evangelicals, Jews, and U.S.-Israeli Relations," said that Republican support for Israel has become a proxy for other conservative priorities, particularly on immigration.

PARIS, Sept 16 (Reuters) - The French government plans to temporarily lift a ban on retailers selling road fuel below cost as part of efforts to stem inflationary pressures on households, Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne told newspaper Le Parisien. A renewed surge in pump prices this summer has complicated the government's attempts to curb consumer inflation, with ministers calling on fuel and food industries to cut their margins. TotalEnergies (TTEF.PA) has extended a cap on fuel prices past the end of the year while some supermarket chains have held promotions to sell petrol at cost. "With this unprecedented measure, we will obtain tangible results for the French people, without subsidising fuel," she said in an interview published on Saturday. Regarding food prices, Borne told Le Parisien that companies from November would be required to indicate on labels when they modify the size of a product.

☆ Chinese stocks roar in a comeback, but here’s why big investors remain cautious
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-17 | by ( Seema Mody | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

A stunning reversal in Chinese stocks in November has investors once again reassessing whether now is the time to double down on this once-hot market. "Biden's comments that he did not see an imminent threat to Taiwan from China were also noteworthy...," said Chang to CNBC. Investors CNBC spoke to remain encouraged by the country's much-needed reopening but want more evidence to suggest Beijing is easing its zero-Covid policy. The latest third-quarter 13F filings ending Sept. 30 also show several reputable hedge funds reducing their exposure to Chinese tech stocks. These positions may have changed since the end of September, but the data does suggest buy-side investors remain cautious on owning Chinese tech.
