Castillo, a leftist leader who took power in July 2021, had announced a government of “exception” at the same time that it would convene legislative…

In its note, the Commission recalled that China has applied since December 2021 “discriminatory and coercive measures against exports from Lithuania and against exports of EU products with Lithuanian content.” This measure also resulted in “a reduction of Chinese exports to Lithuania”. According to the Commission, the measures adopted by China reduced trade by 80%. The other panel refers to the restrictions imposed by China on European high-tech patent holders so that they can defend their rights in courts outside the Asian giant. This measure “de facto deprives European high-tech companies of the possibility to exercise and enforce their patent…
The new sensors Apple Watch Series 7 already featured GPS/GNSS sensors, a compass, an altimeter, a blood oxygen sensor, a third-generation electrical heart rate sensor, and a third-generation optical heart rate sensor, gyroscope, and ambient light sensor. To this number of functions in the Series 8, two of relevance are added and I will tell you why shortly: the shock sensor and the temperature sensor.

The parliamentary session to discuss the motion of no confidence against Castillo was scheduled at 3:00 p.m. (2:00 p.m. Central Mexico time), as approved by 73 congressmen a week ago. The “vacancy motion” is the third against Castillo in 16 months in power. In March, he fell short of the votes to remove it and in December 2021, Congress dismissed it before debating it. “We propose the vacancy of the Presidency of the Republic, occupied by José Pedro Castillo Terrones for having incurred in the cause of permanent moral incapacity,” says the motion that appeals to article 113 of the…
