Do svého pravidelného pořadu Na prahu změn na Slobodném vysielači si tentokrát bývalý policejní prezident a předseda Asociace nezávislých médií Stanislav Novotný pozval makroekonoma, finančního analytika, hlavního ekonoma společnosti Next Finance, člena České ekonomické společnosti a bývalého člena dozorčí rady České exportní banky Vladimíra Pikoru.
Vzkazy pro Gretu Thunbergovou z Česka se množí. Jeden z nich má i novinář Pavel Skramlík. Ten mladou aktivistku i lituje. Ale trvá na tom, že si za své proklamované utrpení může sama. „Dětství ti nikdo neukradl, zničila sis ho sama za cenu toho, že jsi teď mistryně světa. Jenže ve skoku na špek. A nikdo ti ho nevrátí,“ vzkazuje školačce. A rozebírá i vědecké argumenty. „Teď jsme v minicyklu, během něhož např. roste led v Arktidě a ubývá v Antarktidě,“ píše Skramlík.
Na posledním jednání Rady Českého rozhlasu, které se konalo ve středu 25. září, se Tomáš Kňourek vrátil ke kauze ohledně investigativního novináře Janka Kroupy. Ten informoval o tom, že Agrofert neoprávněně hospodaří na 1700 hektarech půdy s neujasněnou majetkovou strukturou a ještě na ni pobírá dotace. Jeho články byly nakonec Radou pro rozhlasové a televizní vysílání posouzeny jako neobjektivní, čímž Český rozhlas porušil zákon. Tomáše Kňourka zajímalo, zda byly pro Kroupu vyvozeny nějaké důsledky. Hovořilo se i o jeho novém investigativním pořadu na TV Nova.
(PARIS) — Jacques Chirac, a two-term French president who was the first leader to acknowledge France’s role in the Holocaust and defiantly opposed the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, died Thursday at age 86.
His son-in-law Frederic Salat-Baroux told The Associated Press that Chirac died “peacefully, among his loved ones.” He did not give a cause of death, though Chirac had had repeated health problems since leaving office in 2007.
Chirac was long the standard-bearer of France’s conservative right, and mayor of Paris for nearly two decades. He was nicknamed “Le Bulldozer” early in his career for his determination and ambition. As president from 1995-2007 he was a consummate global diplomat but failed to reform the economy or defuse tensions between police and minority youths that exploded into riots across France in 2005.
Yet Chirac showed courage and statesmanship during his presidency.
In what may have been his finest hour, France’s last leader with memories of World War II crushed..
When President Donald Trump asked his counterpart in Ukraine to help investigate Trump’s political opponents, the Ukrainian President and his team did not see the request as linked to the release of U.S. military aid, a senior Ukrainian official tells TIME on Wednesday.
“I’m telling you – no, there was no such connection,” says the official, who took part in the call between Trump and President Volodymyr Zelensky on July 25 but would only discuss it on condition of anonymity.
Trump has come under intense criticism in recent days for withholding nearly $400 million in aid to Ukraine this summer, days before asking the country’s president to help investigate Trump’s political opponents. Congressional leaders have called Trump’s moves an attempt to blackmail a foreign government for domestic political gain, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi opened an impeachment inquiry on Tuesday to investigate the alleged abuse of power.
As part of its response on Wednesday, the White House took the ext..
Hong Kong’s embattled leader faced a barrage of criticism Thursday night as she held a town hall-style meeting in her first overture to the public since pro-democracy protests erupted in the Chinese-ruled city nearly four months ago.
The over two hour-long dialogue, which at times descended into emotional tirades and salvos directed at the Beijing-backed leader, comes as Asia’s financial center is gripped by its greatest political crisis in decades. Businesses, especially tourism dependent sectors, have begun to complain of an economic sting as the protracted, sometimes violent upheaval scares off visitors.
As she met face-to-face with her critics, Hong Kong’s Chief Executive Carrie Lam pledged this was no “PR stunt.” Everyone in the course of these past few months has felt worried and anxious, she said, adding that the responsibility for resolving the unrest lies with her government.
Via lottery, 150 members of the public were invited to come and express their concerns. Speaker aft..
V Poslanecké sněmovně se při diskusi v projednávání ústavní žaloby na prezidenta republiky Miloše Zemana střetly dvě dámy. Ministryně Alena Schillerová citovala vzkazy, jež jí chodí od cizích lidí. „Je to opoziční a senátorská špína,“ psali jí. A Miroslava Němcová ostře reagovala. Přečtěte si.
Moderátor Luboš Xaver Veselý vypustil bombu. Do studia za ním přišel štáb ČT z pořadu Newsroom. Server HlídacíPes.org měl totiž výhrady k jeho rozhovoru s Andrejem Babišem. A Xaver na oplátku ztrhal celý Newsroom ČT, prohlásil ho za nekorektní stoku a bulvár. „Vy mě chcete jenom odsoudit, jako vždycky. Máte pocit, že jste všelidový soud,“ osočil Veselý reportérku a její pořad.
