    Question for written answer  E-002634/2025
    to the Commission
    Rule 144
    Markus Buchheit (ESN)

    Following the initial round of elections in Romania earlier this year, the European Union and several EU officials expressed concerns about alleged Russian interference, which contributed to calls for the election results to be reconsidered. However, in the subsequent vote (in which a candidate more aligned with EU mainstream positions emerged victorious) no such concerns have been raised, despite similar conditions.

    • 1.How does the Commission explain the sudden disappearance of concerns about foreign interference in the most recent Romanian elections?
    • 2.What objective criteria does the Commission use to determine whether an electoral process has been affected by foreign influence?
    • 3.Is the Commission willing to investigate whether its selective statements on interference might themselves constitute political influence in the democratic processes of a Member State?

    Question for written answer  E-002713/2025
    to the Commission
    Rule 144
    Alexander Jungbluth (ESN)

    In the German federal state of Bavaria, the political party Alternative für Deutschland, which, according to recent surveys, is the second strongest party nationwide[1], was added to the list of extremist organisations. This has serious consequences for the members of the party. In the selection procedure for the civil service, such people are now being treated as supporters of a terrorist group such as Al-Qaeda or the Taliban[2].

    • 1.Does the Commission consider it appropriate to classify a country’s largest opposition party as an extremist organisation like terrorist organisations such as the Taliban or Al-Qaeda?
    • 2.Does the Commission see a threat to democracy when, in a country, the opposition is persecuted by, among others, the domestic intelligence service, its members are attacked and the leading opposition party is treated like a terrorist organisation responsible for the murder of thousands of people?
    • 3.What action does the Commission intend to take against the persecution of opposition parties in EU Member States with measures familiar from dictatorships?

    Question for written answer  E-002638/2025
    to the Commission
    Rule 144
    Markus Buchheit (ESN)

    Recent developments in Spain have raised serious concerns about the independence of judicial institutions and the political use of prosecutorial powers under the government of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. Multiple corruption scandals have emerged involving figures linked to the ruling party, while accusations of political interference in judicial proceedings, including the appointment of key prosecutors, have intensified.

    There is growing public concern in Spain and across the EU about the erosion of the rule of law, the lack of transparency and the perceived protection of political allies from prosecution. In other Member States, the Commission has acted swiftly in defence of judicial independence and the separation of powers.

    • 1.What is the Commission’s official position on the growing corruption allegations and perceived political interference in Spain’s judicial system?
    • 2.Does the Commission intend to issue a statement reaffirming the need to safeguard the rule of law in Spain, including the independence and autonomy of the public prosecution service?
    • 3.Why does the Commission remain silent on this issue – is it due to the fact that the Spanish socialist party forms part of the broader political alliance that governs EU institutions?

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Government to publish strategy for planned disaster risk management

    Source: Government of South Africa

    With the Southern African region experiencing a growing number of climate-related disasters, government says it will increase its focus on reducing the fiscal and human cost of disasters by planning for them instead of reacting to them.

    “When disasters strike, government is forced to reallocate funds from other priorities to respond, often at the cost of long-term development. This cycle of crisis and reallocation is unsustainable,” the Deputy Minister of Finance, Ashor Sarupen, said on Tuesday in Parliament. 

    Through the finalisation and publishing of a National Disaster Risk Financing Strategy in the 2025/26 financial year, government’s strategy will shift from reactive funding to proactive, planned disaster risk management.

    The strategy will:

    • Introduce disaster risk financing instruments, including climate insurance products, to improve response time and predictability of funding;
    • Embed disaster risk management in grant frameworks, particularly those for infrastructure and local government, and
    • Support line departments and municipalities in mainstreaming climate risk into their financial planning and investment decisions.

    “Climate change is not a future threat. It is a present reality, and our budget frameworks must reflect that,” Sarupen said while tabling the National Treasury’s Budget Vote.

    Spending for Growth

    As part of National Treasury’s broader macroeconomic framework reforms to drive structural economic transformation and attract investment, public infrastructure spending will exceed R1 trillion over three years. 

    “This represents the fastest-growing area of government expenditure and is aimed at easing supply-side economic constraints and improving social service access. 

    “The Budget Facility for Infrastructure (BFI) is being reconfigured to attract private sector participation through multiple appraisal windows, separated investment and financing decisions, and diversified financing instruments including guarantees, build-operate-transfer structures, and concessional loans,” the Deputy Minister said. 

    New public-private partnership (PPP) regulations, effective 1 June 2025, have reduced procedural complexity, with supporting frameworks for unsolicited proposals and fiscal commitments to be published soon, while municipal PPP regulations will be finalised before the Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement.

    “A single National Treasury-overseen structure will be established this year to systematically crowd-in private sector finance and expertise, consolidating large-scale project preparation, providing PPP technical support, improving data management, and enhancing private sector engagement,” he said.

    Rebuilding local government finances

    In an effort to address service delivery breakdowns, fiscal mismanagement, and governance failures at municipalities, National Treasury is responding with targeted support and structural financial reforms.

    National Treasury’s approach focuses on the following key areas:

    • Adoption of Funded Budgets: Municipalities can no longer adopt unfunded budgets based on wishful projections. Treasury is enforcing the requirement for credible, funded budgets as the basis of municipal financial planning.
    • Revenue Value Chain Reforms: Treasury is supporting municipalities to improve billing systems, strengthen collection rates, and protect revenue integrity. Without this, no budget can be sustainable.
    • Capacity Building: Through direct technical support, Treasury is building the financial management skills of municipal officials, particularly CFOs and budget managers.
    • Financial Recovery Plans: For municipalities in financial distress, Municipal Financial Recovery Services (MFRS) provide tailored recovery plans. These are not generic interventions, they are grounded in the real financial position of each municipality.
    • mSCOA Implementation: The Municipal Standard Chart of Accounts (mSCOA) brings transparency and uniformity to local government finances. It allows us to compare apples with apples — across municipalities, across provinces, and across time.
    • Consequence Management: Treasury is working closely with the Department of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs (CoGTA) and the Auditor-General South Africa (AGSA) to ensure that financial misconduct is addressed swiftly. Public money must be protected. Where there is wrongdoing, there must be consequences.

    Reforming the auditing profession

    After years of audit failures in both the public and private sectors, National Treasury is currently reviewing the Auditing Profession Act.

    The Act provides for the establishment of the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors; the education, training and professional development of registered auditors; the accreditation of professional bodies; the registration of auditors, and the regulation of the conduct of registered auditors.

    “The proposed amendments are designed to strengthen the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors (IRBA) and align our regulatory framework with international best practice. These reforms are not just technical changes; they are about fostering trust, integrity, and public confidence in the profession. The auditing profession plays a critical role in financial markets and public accountability,” the Deputy Minister said. – SAnews.gov.za

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Trade Minister welcomes developments in Vodacom-Maziv merger

    Source: Government of South Africa

    Trade, Industry and Competition Minister Parks Tau has welcomed the agreement reached between the merging parties and the Competition Commission in the Vodacom-Maziv merger deal.

    “The substantial public interest commitments made by the merging parties will significantly improve access to affordable internet for underserved communities, thus enabling easier participation in economic activity, particularly for young people,” the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (dtic) said on Wednesday.

    In October last year, the Minister noted the order issued by the Competition Tribunal prohibiting the proposed merger between Vodacom (Pty) Ltd and Maziv (Business Venture Investments No. 2213 (Pty) Ltd).

    The order followed the Competition Commission’s initial recommendation to prohibit the merger, citing significant concerns that it could substantially reduce competition in critical markets, particularly within the 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) and fibre infrastructure sectors.

    READ | Minister notes Competition Tribunal’s decision on Vodacom, Maziv merger

    In a statement on Tuesday, the Competition Commission said it had reached an agreement with the parties on revised conditions that substantially remedy the competition concerns raised by the Commission in its recommendation to the Tribunal that the Vodacom/Maziv merger be prohibited.

    This agreement follows constructive engagements between the Commission and the merger parties to remedy the deficiencies in the previous conditions identified by the Tribunal in its prohibition of the merger.

    There were three primary competition concerns that were not adequately addressed by the proposed conditions at the time of concluding the Tribunal hearings.

    The first of these was the horizontal reduction in competition between Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) and Fibre to the Home (FTTH).

    According to the Commission, the revised conditions address these shortcomings by improving the capex commitment by Maziv and extending it to a five-year period post-merger to ensure that Maziv remains incentivised to service third party network operators.

    The second issue was the horizontal overlap in FTTH infrastructure and potential price increases post-merger.

    “The previous conditions were inadequate insofar as they included a ‘weak’ divestiture condition that did not adequately incentivise the merging parties to divest the overlapping infrastructure. The revised conditions put in place a standard divestiture arrangement whereby the failure to sell the assets within a particular period result in a trustee divestiture process to ensure the assets are divested and pre-merger competition is restored,” said the Commission.

    It further added that the condition follows the standard formulation used in other merger transactions and requires that a transparent and competitive process be followed to identify a proposed purchaser.
    The third issue was over vertical foreclosure concerns with the commission stating that although there were fairly comprehensive conditions in place to address foreclosure, there were notable challenges with monitoring and enforcing the conditions with the resulting concern that action would not be sufficiently timely to prevent foreclosure from occurring and harming competition.

    “The revised conditions introduce some structural changes to Maziv’s governance structure that limit the merged entity’s incentives to foreclose competitors. The conditions now also incorporate an enhanced fast-track interim relief process that will address potential foreclosure concerns while the lengthier formal process to investigate any alleged foreclosure is underway. This ensures that any attempt to get a first-mover advantage that will have an enduring effect in the market can be prevented through fast-track interim relief,” it said.

    Public interest

    The Commission added that there are significant improvements to the public interest commitments which increase the substantiality of these commitments.

    These include additional capex spend to roll-out new (Fibre-to-theBusiness (FTTB), FTTH and Fibre-to-the-Site (FTTS) infrastructure, free access to 1Gigabit per second fibre lines for public libraries and clinics passed by FTTH infrastructure, an increase in the number of police stations that Vodacom will provide with FWA products, an additional commitment to enterprise development and an increase in the employee share ownership plan previously agreed.

    “Access to reliable, high-speed internet is the cornerstone of a dynamic economy and a democratic society. The Commission is confident that the revised conditions agreed with the merger parties will ensure that South Africa will benefit from the continued competitive prices and product choices in this critical sector,” Commissioner Doris Tshepe said.

    This as Minister Tau further welcomed the investment committed by parties.

    “This commitment will ensure that South Africa participates meaningfully in the global economy through new sectors like Generative Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things and other ICT related sectors which will propel the world into the future.

    “The matter will proceed, unopposed, at the Competition Appeal Court where the agreement will be placed before the Court for its final consideration. The Minister thanks all parties involved for their constructive engagement throughout this process,” said the dtic.

    The Commission as one of the the three independent statutory bodies established in terms of the Competition Act to regulate competition between firms in the market, it is the investigating and prosecuting agency in the competition regime while the Tribunal is the court. – SAnews.gov.za

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Government to ensure that the SANDF is well resourced 

    Source: Government of South Africa

    In spite of the ongoing financial constraints which affect the planning and operations of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF), government has assured the troops that they will have the resources needed to defend and protect the country.

    “This includes ensuring soldiers are properly equipped with the uniforms, boots, protective gear, and habitable facilities catering for the needs of all including women soldiers and persons with disabilities,” the Minister of Defence and Military Veterans, Angie Motshekga, said on Wednesday in Parliament.

    Selected “Model Units” will receive priority upgrades ensuring safety and security, well- maintained bases, sports and recreation facilities, and training areas.

    Soldiers on deployment will also get priority support for all their needs during deployment.

    “Efforts are underway to rejuvenate the SANDF’s human resource profile, modernise, maintenance, repair and overhaul of the prime mission equipment, with the South African Defence Industry (SADI) as the key national defence partner,” the Minister said during the debate of the budgets of the Departments of Defence and Military Veterans.

    The Department of Defence Human Resources Plan for the 2025 Medium Term Expenditure Framework reflects a deliberate and phased approach to sustaining a capable, rejuvenated, and cost-efficient defence workforce within existing budgetary constraints.
    The Department of Defence has received a total budget allocation of R57 183 billion for 2025/26.

    Of this budget allocation, R36 703 billion has been set as the ceiling for the Compensation of Employees (COE), constituting approximately 64% of the defence allocation.

    Furthermore, approximately R8 359 billion is earmarked, which includes, among others:
    • R2 773 billion for accommodation charges, leases and municipal services;
    • R2 556 billion for the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (SAMIDRC);
    • R1 464 billion transfer payment to Armscor;
    • R487 million for the Republic’s assessed contribution to SADC for the SAMIDRC deployment;
    •  R480 million for the repair and maintenance of maritime defence systems;
    •  R300 million for day-to-day maintenance and emergency repairs and
    •  R200 million-rand for the procurement of vehicles and technology for border safeguarding.

    The Defence Force has been allocated R12 billion to meet its constitutional mandate.

    Repositioning the South African Defence Industry

    The Department of Defence is working on repositioning the SADI to pursue the strategic goal of economic growth and job creation.

    “In this regard the SADI must be positioned as a vital economic asset, ready for expansion to drive national development and support government priorities for a capable state and become a strong local defence industry that creates jobs, develops new technologies, and ensures that the SANDF is well-equipped.

    “Cooperation between Denel, local companies, and international partners will be expanded to boost exports and attract investment. The centrality of Denel is critical in the maintenance and support of the SANDF,” the Minister said.

    She called for the repositioning of Armscor as an entity for SANDF Equipment and Capability Modernisation, to be intensified to make sure that Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) for midlife upgrades and modernisation of PME (air, land, naval domains) guarantees the longevity and mission effectiveness for the SANDF.

    Military veterans

    The military veterans has been allocated R878 million for the 2025/26 financial year.

    “In collaboration with sister departments, we have embarked on a project to repatriate the remains of our fallen heroes and heroines in Zambia and Zimbabwe during 2024. A total number of 35 mortal remains have been repatriated thus far and further work is underway,” the Minister said.

    Over the past three audited financial years the Department of Military Veterans Education Support Benefit provided learners and students as follows:
    • During the 2021/22 financial year, 3 711 learners and students at a cost of R88 million.
    • In the 2022/23 financial year, a total number of 4 114 learners and students at a cost of R126 million.
    • 3 690 learners and students cost the department R135 million during the 2023/24 financial year.

    The unaudited information for the 2024/25 financial year, shows that 2 738 learners and students were provided with education support to continue with their studies.

    To date at least 100 have graduated. – SAnews.gov.za

  • MIL-OSI: Bitcoin Solaris Mobile Mining Debuts on LBank with Revolutionary App

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    TALLINN, Estonia, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — If you asked a crypto investor in 2018 whether mobile mining would ever be a thing, most would have laughed. Fast forward to 2025, and not only is it real, it’s live, global, and profitable thanks to Bitcoin Solaris. The long-awaited Solaris Nova App has officially debuted alongside the token’s upcoming listing on LBank, bringing with it a completely reimagined way to mine crypto.

    In a world where most mining is still monopolized by expensive rigs and massive electricity bills, Bitcoin Solaris is flipping the game on its head. The goal is clear: make mining accessible, eco-friendly, and incredibly profitable for anyone.

    The LBank Listing: Why It Matters for Miners

    LBank is one of the fastest-growing centralized exchanges catering to early-stage altcoins and breakout tokens. Bitcoin Solaris’s listing there is more than a visibility boost. It’s a liquidity moment for miners and holders alike. The listing solidifies BTC-S’s legitimacy and enables real-time conversion from mined tokens to stablecoins or other assets. That means every token mined through your device or laptop suddenly becomes more than a number on a screen, it becomes accessible capital.

    LBank’s integration also simplifies wallet transfers and paves the way for mass adoption through mobile platforms. Whether you’re mining from a basic Android phone or a high-end gaming rig, the upcoming LBank listing turns your BTC-S into liquid gold.

    Meet the Solaris Nova App: Mobile Mining, Reimagined

    The Solaris Nova App is the centerpiece of Bitcoin Solaris’s Universal Mining model. It’s not just another mining program, it’s an entire ecosystem packaged into one simple interface. The app supports Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, and even browser-based mining.

    • One-tap mining functionality with built-in wallet support
    • Adaptive algorithms that calibrate for energy efficiency
    • Support for smartphones, laptops, and professional mining rigs
    • In-app tutorials for beginners and advanced customization for experts
    • 99.95% lower energy consumption than traditional Bitcoin mining
    • 2-second transaction finality powered by dual-consensus architecture

    What sets it apart is how easily it integrates mining into everyday life. You don’t need to be a blockchain engineer or own an expensive ASIC setup. If you have a phone and a few minutes, you’re in the game.

    Presale Status: Time Is Ticking

    Bitcoin Solaris has officially entered Phase 11 of its blazing-fast presale. The current price sits at $11, with the next phase holding steady at the same rate before the anticipated $20 launch price. With less than 4 weeks to go, this is shaping up to be one of the shortest and most explosive presales in recent memory.

    More than 13,900 unique users have already joined, pushing total contributions past the $6.3 million mark. The momentum is undeniable, and now, it’s being supercharged.

    Real Tech, Real Speed, Real Impact Only on Bitcoin Solaris

    In an unprecedented move, Bitcoin Solaris is introducing a limited-time Rollback. For a very short window, the price will drop to just $5. This rollback isn’t just generous, it’s rare. The team is recognizing the extraordinary support BTC-S has received, and opening the door for more participants to enter at an unbeatable rate. It’s a one-off opportunity that early believers simply shouldn’t ignore.

    To receive your tokens on launch day, Bitcoin Solaris recommends using Trust Wallet or Metamask for seamless delivery. These wallets are only for receiving tokens, not required for purchasing or joining the presale.

    Why Mining BTC-S Is Catching Fire

    Bitcoin Solaris mining isn’t just a gimmick. It’s tied into one of the most advanced consensus models in the crypto world. The hybrid Proof-of-Work and Delegated Proof-of-Stake system allows anyone to participate while supporting blazing speeds and low fees. That blend also enables real decentralization and network security without killing your device or your power bill.

    Here’s what makes it appealing:

    • Global access from any device, anywhere
    • Seamless validator rotation keeps things efficient
    • Reward potential scales with contribution, not wallet size
    • Participation feeds directly into network health

    Oh, and if you want to see how much you can make, check the official BTC-S mining calculator.

    In addition, Bitcoin Solaris introduced daily mini games for its holders for a chance to earn daily rewards, checkout all the details here.

    What’s the Catch?

    Honestly, there doesn’t seem to be one. Bitcoin Solaris has already passed audits from both Cyberscope and Freshcoins, reinforcing its credibility. And with an active community buzzing across Telegram and X, the network effect is snowballing.

    Final Verdict

    Bitcoin Solaris isn’t just riding the mobile mining trend, it’s leading it. By merging energy-efficient mining, accessible tech, a powerful app ecosystem, and a huge exchange listing, BTC-S delivers what old-school Bitcoin miners never could: simplicity and profitability for the everyday user.

    And now with the LBank listing just around the corner, the barrier between mining and real profit is officially gone.

  • Trump criticizes Putin after approving more weapons for Ukraine, Kremlin says it is ‘calm’

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he had approved sending U.S. defensive weapons to Ukraine and was considering additional sanctions on Moscow, underscoring his frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin over the growing death toll in Russia’s war with Ukraine.

    Trump, who pledged as a presidential candidate to end the war within a day, has not been able to follow through on that promise and efforts by his administration to broker peace have come up short.

    Trump directed his ire at Putin on Tuesday during a meeting with cabinet officials at the White House.

    “I’m not happy with Putin. I can tell you that much right now,” Trump said, noting that Russian and Ukrainian soldiers were dying in the thousands.

    “We get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin … He’s very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless,” Trump said

    Trump said he was considering whether to support a bill in the Senate that would impose steep sanctions on Russia over the war.

    “I’m looking at it very strongly,” he said.

    The bill, whose lead sponsors are Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, would also punish other countries that trade with Moscow, imposing 500% tariffs on nations that buy Russian oil, gas, uranium and other exports.

    DEFENSIVE WEAPONS AGAINST RUSSIAN ADVANCES

    Trump said on Monday that the United States would send more weapons to Ukraine, primarily defensive ones, to help it defend itself against Russian advances. On Tuesday he said he had approved such a move.

    “We’re sending some defensive weapons to Ukraine, and I’ve approved that,” he said.

    Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday he had ordered an expansion of contacts with the United States to ensure critical deliveries of military supplies, primarily air defence.

    “We currently have all the necessary political statements and decisions and we must implement them as quickly as possible to protect our people and positions,” he said.

    “These are critical deliveries that mean saving lives and protecting Ukrainian cities and villages. I expect results from these contacts very soon. And this week, we are preparing formats for meetings of our military and political teams.”

    Zelenskiy has repeatedly urged Ukraine’s Western allies to impose tougher sanctions on Moscow to force the Kremlin to agree to a ceasefire as a step towards reaching an end to the war, now 40 months old.

    A decision by the Pentagon to halt some shipments of critical weapons to Ukraine prompted warnings by Kyiv last week that the move would weaken its ability to defend against Russia’s intensifying airstrikes and battlefield advances.

    Trump, who was seated next to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, was asked on Tuesday who had ordered that pause.

    “I don’t know. Why don’t you tell me?” Trump responded.

    The Kremlin, asked on Wednesday about U.S. President Donald Trump’s criticism of Russian President Vladimir Putin, said that Moscow was “calm” regarding the criticism, and that it would continue to try to fix a “broken” U.S.-Russia relationship.

    Trump has in recent days accused Putin of not taking U.S. efforts to reach a peace deal in Ukraine seriously, and suggested that the U.S. will continue supporting Kyiv.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Traffic related fees revised

    Source: Hong Kong Information Services

    The Government announced today a proposal to increase the tolls for the Aberdeen Tunnel and Shing Mun Tunnels to $8, the maximum fee for metered parking to $4 per 15 minutes and the fixed penalty for illegal parking to $400.

    The current toll of the Aberdeen Tunnel and Shing Mun Tunnels for all vehicles throughout the day is $5.

    The Transport & Logistics Bureau noted that the tolls for these two tunnels have not been adjusted for 34 years, during which time inflation has exceeded 130%, resulting in operational deficits. 

    The $8 toll is expected to have a minimal impact on traffic, and the adjusted tolls will enable the tunnels to break-even in operations. The new tolls will be effective on September 21.

    The Government also proposed to introduce an $8 toll for the Central Kowloon Bypass, which will be fully commissioned in 2026.

    The bureau noted that the Central Kowloon Bypass will alleviate the current traffic congestion on major trunk roads in Kowloon, offering a shorter route with higher speeds, making it highly attractive to drivers.

    If no toll is charged for the use of the Central Kowloon Bypass, it is expected that its utilisation rate will approach a saturation point shortly after its commissioning.

    Taking into account the views of the Legislative Council Panel on Transport and the community, and to attract more motorists to use the bypass, the Government is proposing an $8 toll.

    The proposed toll level will effectively divert approximately 20% of the overall traffic from saturated major roads in Kowloon, while reserving about 15% of spare capacity of the Central Kowloon Bypass to accommodate future traffic growth.

    It will also recover nearly 80% of basic operational costs, and according to the efficiency-first principle, the fees payable by commercial and public transport vehicles will be consistent with the moderate toll charged for smaller private cars.

    In addition, the Government proposed to revise the annual licence fee structure for electric private cars by charging licence fees based on their rated power.

    A five-tier licence fee structure will be introduced and the adjustments will take five phases over six years to complete, to align with technological advancements and practices in other regions.

    The new licence fee structure will take effect from November 1 and apply to newly registered electric private cars, while existing electric private cars will be granted a four-month grace period.

    To optimise the use of limited parking resources, the Government proposes to increase the maximum fee for metered parking from $2 per 15 minutes to $4 per 15 minutes, viz. a maximum fee of $16 per hour to increase the turnover of vehicles using metered parking spaces to meet the short-term parking needs of motorists.

    The new charges for metered parking spaces will take effect from September 28. The fees for metered parking spaces for goods vehicles, buses and coaches will be maintained at the existing level.

    For the illegal parking fixed penalty, the Government proposed an increase of 25% from the current $320 to $400. The fixed penalties for 19 other traffic offences related to road safety and traffic congestion will be increased 50% to a new range of $480 to $1,500.

    Legislative amendments regarding the adjustment of tunnel tolls, rationalising the licence fee structure and levels for electric private cars as well as adjustment of parking meter charges will be gazetted on July 18 and tabled at LegCo on July 23 for negative vetting.

    As for the adjustment of fixed penalties for traffic offences, the Secretary for Transport & Logistics will move a motion at the LegCo meeting on July 30 to pass the resolutions.

  • MIL-OSI Europe: European Court of Human Rights: Russia responsible for downing of flight MH17

    Source: Government of the Netherlands

    News item | 09-07-2025 | 11:57

    On 9 July 2025 the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) held that Russia is responsible for the downing of flight MH17 and for the deaths of everyone on board, including 196 Dutch nationals. Russia is also responsible for the additional suffering caused to the next of kin, owing to its continued denial of any involvement and its obstruction of the investigations into the downing of the aircraft. The judgment is an important step on the road to justice.

    ECtHR and flight MH17

    In 2020 the Netherlands submitted an inter-State application to the ECtHR regarding Russia’s responsibility for the downing of flight MH17 on 17 July 2014 over eastern Ukraine. All 298 people on board were killed, including 196 Dutch nationals.

    The ECtHR’s judgment

    This is the second time in a short period that it has been established at international level that Russia violated international law when it downed flight MH17. The ECtHR ruled in the Netherlands’ favour in regard to Russia’s violation of four human rights, as laid down in the European Convention on Human Rights:

    • Russia is responsible for the downing of flight MH17 and the deaths of everyone on board (Article 2, right to life, substantive).
    • Russia did not perform an adequate investigation of its own, and did not cooperate sufficiently with requests for information submitted by the Netherlands and the Joint Investigation Team (Article 2, right to life, procedural).
    • Russia’s lack of cooperation and continued denial of any involvement in the downing of flight MH17 caused the next of kin additional suffering (Article 3, prohibition of torture and inhuman treatment).
    • Russia did not provide the next of kin with any legal remedy (Article 13, right to an effective remedy).

    Minister of Foreign Affairs Caspar Veldkamp: ‘The judgment of the European Court of Human Rights is crystal clear: Russia is responsible for the downing of flight MH17 and for the deaths of everyone on board, including 196 Dutch nationals. This confirms what we have known and felt all along, and is an important step on the road to justice.

    Russia is also responsible for additional suffering caused to the next of kin, due to its continued denial of any involvement and lack of cooperation. Nothing can take away the grief and suffering, but I hope that this outcome brings a sense of justice and acknowledgement.’

    Next steps

    Up until now, the proceedings before the ECtHR have been focused on establishing the human rights violations concerned. Now that these have been established, the ECtHR can determine the consequences of the violations and the damages payable. Throughout this process, the Netherlands will remain in close contact with the next of kin about potential damages.

  • Extremely proud of our diaspora: PM Modi in Namibia

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday expressed deep pride in the Indian diaspora in Namibia, commending their role in preserving Indian culture and fostering stronger ties between India and the southern African nation.

    In a post on X, the Prime Minister said, “The Indian community in Namibia is extremely optimistic about closer India-Namibia friendship and this reflected in the special welcome in Windhoek. I am extremely proud of our diaspora, particularly the manner in which they have retained a connect with their culture and traditions.”

    PM Modi arrived in Namibia earlier today on the final leg of his five-nation tour. He received a traditional welcome at Hosea Kutako International Airport, where he was greeted by Namibia’s Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Selma Ashipala-Musavyi.

    Local musicians and dancers performed at the airport to mark the occasion. In a gesture that drew warm applause, Prime Minister Modi joined the performers and played the Namibian drums, highlighting his appreciation for local customs and traditions.

    This marks Prime Minister Modi’s first visit to Namibia and only the third visit by an Indian Prime Minister to the country in the last 27 years.

    Soon after his arrival, the Prime Minister posted on X, “Landed in Windhoek a short while ago. Namibia is a valued and trusted African partner with whom we seek to boost bilateral cooperation.”

    During the visit, PM Modi will hold bilateral talks with Namibian President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah. Both leaders are expected to discuss expanding cooperation in key areas such as energy, healthcare, education, digital technology, and development partnership.

    The visit will also include an address to a Joint Session of the Namibian Parliament, marking an important milestone in India-Namibia relations.

    According to the Ministry of External Affairs, India and Namibia share historic ties dating back to India’s early support for Namibia’s independence movement. In 1946, India raised the issue of Namibian independence at the United Nations.

    Ahead of his visit, PM Modi described Namibia as “a trusted partner” with whom India shares a “common history of struggle against colonialism.”

    “I look forward to meeting President H.E. Dr. Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah and charting a new roadmap for cooperation for the benefit of our peoples, our regions and the wider Global South,” the Prime Minister said, adding that addressing the Namibian Parliament would be a privilege as both nations celebrate “our enduring solidarity and shared commitment for freedom and development.”

    The Prime Minister had earlier expressed confidence that his visits to the five countries would further strengthen India’s ties across the Global South, deepen cooperation on both sides of the Atlantic, and expand engagement within multilateral platforms such as BRICS, the African Union, ECOWAS and CARICOM.

  • MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Woman prosecuted for illegally subletting Birmingham council home

    Source: City of Birmingham

    A former Birmingham City Council tenant has been fined and lost her council home after pleading guilty to unlawfully subletting.

    Ms Strauja advertised her council home to rent on social media; she told her sub-tenant that she owned the council property and was moving out to live with her partner.

    Birmingham City Council was alerted to the situation when Ms Strauja gave her sub-tenant notice to leave, and the tenant reported themselves as homeless.

    On 24 August 2023, Ms Strauja pleaded guilty at Birmingham Magistrates’ Court to one offence of unlawfully subletting a council property and one associated Council Tax fraud offence.

    Ms Strauja was fined £100 for the sub-letting offence, was ordered to pay £900 in unlawfully obtained profits as a result of sub-letting the property and a £40 victim surcharge.

    At a hearing on 20 May 2025, at Birmingham County Court, Ms Strauja stated that she regretted her actions and understood that she had broken the terms and conditions of her tenancy agreement, but wanted to remain in the property as private rental prices were high. 

    It was pointed out that by unlawfully subletting the property, Ms Strauja had automatically broken the security of her tenancy and that this cannot be restored. The District Judge therefore granted a possession order for the property and a payment plan to recover the outstanding occupancy charges. Ms Strauja’s tenancy ended on 8 June 2025.

    Councillor Nicky Brennan, cabinet member for housing and homelessness, said: 

    “The fabric of our society is based on having a good home. It is fundamental to people’s sense of place, health and wellbeing.

    “To sublet one of our homes deprives people of a much-needed home – we will not tolerate it and will use the full extent of the law to root out people abusing the system.

    “There are 25,000 people on the housing register in Birmingham waiting for a good and safe home.

    “We hope this acts as a warning for tenants considering subletting a council property. If you sublet a property, you can receive a criminal record, potentially face imprisonment, be fined, and be ordered to repay the money you earned.

    “Once you’ve sublet a council property, you’ve automatically broken the security of tenure, and that cannot be restored – you will lose the property.

    “We urge all residents to respect council homes and report suspected fraud. Together, we can ensure fair provision of social housing.”

    People who suspect someone of unlawfully subletting a council home can report this online via report a fraud.

    ULAN BATOR, July 9 (Xinhua) — An event titled “Hello, China!” to promote the culture and tourism of Enshi (central China’s Hubei Province) and Huangshan (east China’s Anhui Province) was held at the China Cultural Center in Ulan Bator on Wednesday.

    The current event was organized with the assistance of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the People’s Republic of China and the Chinese Embassy in Mongolia.

    Mongolian airline Hunnu Airlines recently officially launched two charter tourist flights from Ulaanbaatar to Enshi and Huangshan.

    Speaking at the event, Li Zhi, Counselor of the Chinese Embassy in Mongolia and Director of the China Cultural Center in Ulaanbaatar, said that the launch of the two charter flights is an important achievement of China-Mongolia tourism cooperation and another milestone in the cultural exchange between the two countries. These routes not only open up a convenient “sky Silk Road” for Mongolian tourists, but also allow Mongolian friends to see the mysterious landscapes in China. “We believe that these two routes will become “new bonds” of China-Mongolia friendship, allowing more Mongolians to experience the charm of China’s nature and culture,” he added.

    For his part, General Director of Mongolian airline Hunnu Air LLC Purevjalyn Munkhjargal noted that with the increase in the number of flights between the two countries, people-to-people exchanges will become closer and the friendly relations between China and Mongolia will continue to deepen. “I have personally walked these two tourist routes, the local landscapes and cultural traditions are unforgettable,” he added.

    At the event, representatives from tourism agencies in Enshi and Huangshan showcased the unique natural wonders and cultural traditions of the two places through short films and photo exhibitions. –0–
