В конце августа финансовый комитет Рижской думы без обсуждения выделил 62 тысячи евро из средств на непредвиденные обстоятельства, так как Центральное агентство финансов и договоров (CFLA) применило коррекцию к закупке Рижского дигитального агентства (RDA) . Как сообщило Латвийское телевидение в программе de facto, расходы вызваны ошибкой закупочной комиссии - она не исключила из конкурса фирму Corporate Systems, у бенефициара которой Айгара Церуса был неуплаченный налоговый долг. Рижская дума начала служебную проверку по ущербу, нанесенному самоуправлению, только на этой неделе после того, как вопросом заинтересовалось телевидение.

Une fusillade a éclaté ce dimanche à proximité de Donald Trump. Une enquête pour «ce qui semble être une tentative d'assassinat» est en cours. Le profil du suspect, fervent partisan de l'Ukraine, interroge.
Le procès des viols de Mazan doit reprendre ce lundi 16 septembre, mais le principal accusé, Dominique Pélicot, ne sera «assurément pas» présent à l'audience pour des raisons de santé. Son avocate refuse toutefois de voir le procès reporté.
Donald Trump was the target of an apparent assassination attempt Sunday in Florida, the FBI said, with the Republican presidential candidate's campaign and law enforcement reporting he was safe and unharmed. The US Secret Service confirmed one or more of its agents «opened fire on a gunman» located near the boundary of Trump's golf course, and that an «AK-47 style rifle» with a scope was recovered along with a GoPro video camera. Amid the confrontation with the Secret Service, the suspect bolted out of the shrubbery he had been hiding in and escaped in a black car. A witness helped police identify the vehicle and authorities tracked it down. «We have somebody in custody right now that is a potential suspect,» Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw told a news conference. Trump had been golfing at his course in West Palm Beach, Florida, not far from his Mar-a-Lago residence, when the would-be shooter was spotted in bushes one hole ahead of the former president, Bradshaw said. «President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity,» his campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a statement, while Democratic presidential hopeful Kamala Harris expressed relief her political rival was out of danger. Trump himself said in a website fundraising message: «Fear not! I am safe and well, and no one was hurt. Thank God!» The unnerving incident appears to mark the second time in as many months that Trump has been the target of an assassination attempt. The former president was wounded in the ear on July 13 as he addressed an outdoor rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. - Unsure if shot taken - Authorities who addressed Sunday's news conference did not confirm whether a gunman actually fired a weapon in the direction of the former president, but said that shots were fired by the Secret Service. «We are not sure right now if the individual was able to take a shot at our agents,» said Rafael Barros, of the Secret Service. The Federal Bureau of Investigation said it is «investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination of former President Trump.» Officials praised the quick action of the Secret Service, an agency that has been under intense scrutiny since its apparent failure to detect and stop a gunman from shooting at Trump in Pennsylvania. Sheriff Bradshaw said Secret Service personnel in Trump's protective detail spotted «this rifle barrel sticking out of the fence and immediately engaged that individual, at which time the individual took off.» He estimated the suspect was set up 300 to 500 yards (275 to 455 meters) away, but «with a rifle and a scope like that, that's not a long distance.» Sheriff William Snyder of neighboring Martin County said on CNN that the potential suspect who was stopped and detained by law enforcement had «a relatively calm, flat affect. He was not displaying a lot of emotions.» - 'Relieved' - Law enforcement was launching a sweeping investigation but as of Sunday afternoon there was no indication of the shooter's motive. The incident came amid heightened tensions in the knife-edge presidential race, and concern for the safety of both candidates. «There is no place for political violence or for any violence ever in our country,» President Joe Biden said in a statement. «I have directed my team to continue to ensure that Secret Service has every resource, capability and protective measure necessary to ensure the former president's continued safety.» Vice President Harris took to social media to say «I am glad he is safe.» Several Trump supporters and members of his inner circle, including his running mate J.D. Vance, offered their support and gratitude that tragedy was avoided. «I'm glad President Trump is safe,» Vance said on X. «I spoke to him before the news was public and he was, amazingly, in good spirits.» The Secret Service, tasked with protecting presidents, former presidents and other dignitaries, has faced criticism since the Pennsylvania shooting. Kimberly Cheatle, the head of the agency, resigned amid the ensuing scrutiny, and at least five agents were placed on administrative leave. Representative Elise Stefanik, the fourth-ranking US House Republican, thanked law enforcement for their actions Sunday but raised questions about the latest incident. «We must ask ourselves how an assassin was allowed to get this close to President Trump again,» she said in a statement. «There continues to be a lack of answers for the horrific assassination attempt in Pennsylvania and we expect there to be a clear explanation of what happened today in Florida.» © Agence France-Presse
Global warming. Disappearing plant and animal species. Fertile land turning to desert. Plastic in the oceans, on land, and the air we breathe. These urgent environmental challenges will be in the spotlight over the next few months as the United Nations hosts four major sessions to address key threats to the planet. - Biodiversity - First up is a «Conference of the Parties» -- a COP -- dedicated to biodiversity being held in Cali, Colombia, from October 21 to November 1. These are called every two years to debate how the world can cooperate to better protect the rich variety of plant and animal life in the natural world. The COP16 isn't expected to break new ground but is more a stocktake of progress since the last summit secured historic assurances for biodiversity. In 2022 in Montreal, nations agreed to place 30 percent of the planet under environmental protection by 2030 in a landmark pact aimed at arresting biodiversity loss and restoring ecosystems to health. In Cali, countries will put forward national strategies to meet this global objective, and observers hope Colombia as host will provide a model for others to follow. WWF has commended the leadership shown so far by Colombia, which hosts close to 10 percent of Earth's biodiversity, including countless bird, butterfly, and orchid species. - Climate - The world's most important conference on climate change is this year being hosted by Azerbaijan, a former Soviet republic heavily dependent on oil and gas exports, from November 11 to 22. While the last summit in Dubai in 2023 delivered a historic commitment to transition the world away from fossil fuels, supporting poorer countries with climate change will top this year's agenda. The summit, known as COP29, is expected to land a new agreement on «climate finance»: money from rich nations most responsible for global warming to developing countries vulnerable to climate change. There isn't an agreed figure yet, or even consensus on where the money should come from, who should receive it, and what form it could take. But developing countries are pushing for much more than the $100 billion pledged in 2009. This was only reached for the first time in full in 2022. «COP29 offers an opportunity to unlock more climate investments from a wider range of public and private sources and to improve the quality of this finance,» said the World Resources Institute, a US think tank. The result of the US election, just six days before COP29 begins, could throw a last-minute curveball into the final negotiations, which have proved divisive so far. It also remains to be seen how many world leaders travel to Baku, the capital on the Caspian Sea, with some expected to focus their energy on COP30 in Brazil next year. - Desertification - The least high profile of the three COPs, this session in Saudi Arabia addressing the loss of fertile land to desert is nonetheless critical. Climate variation like droughts and human activities like overgrazing can result in desertification, a process mainly in dry areas where land degrades and becomes unproductive. Experts hope the COP16 on desertification, scheduled to take place in Riyadh from December 2 to 13, can act as a turning point in addressing this problem. «Discussions will focus on ways to restore 1.5 billion hectares of land by 2030, as well as putting in place agreements to manage the droughts that are already affecting many regions of the globe,» said Arona Diedhiou from the French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development. - Plastic - In 2022, some 175 nations agreed to fast-track negotiations toward a world-first treaty on plastic pollution, and the final session gets underway on November 25 in South Korea. The treaty aims to marshal an international response to the plastic trash choking the environment, from oceans and rivers to mountains and sea ice. Some nations want the treaty to restrict how much plastic can be made while others -- particularly oil and gas producing countries that provide the raw materials to make plastic -- want a focus on recycling. Hellen Kahaso Dena, head of Greenpeace's Pan-African Plastics Project, hopes that countries «will agree on a treaty that prioritises reducing plastic production». «There is no time to waste with approaches that will not solve the problem,» the activist told AFP. © Agence France-Presse
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Seychelles' credit rating at BB- with positive outlook, which is supported by relatively high income levels, strong World Bank governance indicators and support from multilateral creditors. According to the Ratings released on Friday, these strengths are balanced by the economy's small size and high concentration in the tourism sector, heightening vulnerability to external shocks. The Ratings state that Seychelles' tourism sector, which directly accounts for up to 25 percent of its economy and 40 percent of current account receipts, has stagnated this year, with visitor arrival growth flat in the first eight months year-on-year. The authorities expect arrivals to reach 95 percent of 2019 levels by 2025, down from previous projections. «This is due to weakness in some source economies, mainly in Western Europe, strong competition from other high-end tourist destinations, and inadequate growth of flight routes to Seychelles. Tourism receipts are set to decline 13 percent year-on-year in 2024, albeit to still higher than pre-pandemic levels, reflecting stagnant arrivals and a shift away from higher-spending tourists mainly from the Gulf countries and Russia, and grow only marginally in 2025,» said Fitch Ratings. On economic growth, Fitch expects Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of 3 percent in 2024, and 4 percent in 2025, with some positive impact from the 2025 Beach Football World Cup and pre-presidential and parliamentary election spending. Potential growth is estimated at around 3.5 percent supported by a solid pipeline of investment in hotel projects of over $700 million due to come online in 2024-25. This will boost room capacity in the country by 6.4 percent. Additionally, the Information Communication and Technology (ICT) sector has posted strong growth in recent years, but meaningful diversification prospects for the economy appear limited. Fitch said, «Seychelles continues to have strong performance against benchmarks of the IMF's Extended Fund Facility (EFF) and Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF) programmes, which collectively total $102 million, 4.7 percent of 2023 GDP, worth of funding over three years to 2026, of which 32 percent has already been disbursed. Seychelles met all but one of the quantitative performance benchmarks under the EFF's latest review and has started incorporating climate-related reform requirements in its budgetary process. Fitch views as credit positive the technical assistance that Seychelles has access to from the IMF, World Bank and other multilateral lenders in improving budgetary management and ingraining climate risk mitigation in its budget execution. However, Seychelles is heavily exposed to risks from climate change, with impacts already being felt primarily through the rising intensity and frequency of storms and flooding that are rendering some coastal infrastructure unusable. »In the short term, Seychelles' tourism industry faces constraints in expansion due to the saturation of coastal infrastructure, which effectively acts as a cap on potential growth. The IMF estimates Seychelles to have a funding requirement of about $670 million, 31.2 percent of 2023 GDP, for climate change mitigation by 2030, equivalent to 5 percent of GDP annually, but the country spends only 0.9 percent of GDP a year," said Fitch Ratings.
