ili približavanje sa Kinom: WASHINGTON, April 23 (Reuters) - The White House would look at lowering tariffs on imported Chinese goods pending talks with Beijing, a source familiar with the matter said on Wednesday, adding that any action would be in conjunction with negotiations and not made unilaterally. ili udaljavanje od Kine ili približavanje sa Kinom ili udaljavanje od Kine i tako kako koji dan 😁 Uzgred, čemu laganje da se od saveznika traži samo da spuste carine na američku robu kad je to provjerljivo za nekoliko sekundi? The European Union will have to commit to buying $350 billion of American energy to get a reprieve from Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs, the U.S. president said late Monday, dismissing Brussels' offer of "zero-for-zero" tariffs on cars and industrial goods.

Reuters kaže da su Ukrajinci poslali evropskim partnerima dopis kojim ih obavještavaju da nema pregovora o teritorijama prije uspostavljanja sveobuhvatnog primirja i da je Rubio vjerovatno odlučio da ne dođe u London na zakazane konsultacije na nivou ministara spoljnih poslova zato što su Amerikanci sa rusima načelno dogovorili nešto drugo: A source close to the discussions said the downgrading of the trip came after Ukraine drafted a paper for the Europeans on Tuesday, in which it said there would be no discussions on territorial issues until "a full and unconditional ceasefire". The source said the apparent U.S. nervousness could indicate that the Ukrainian position did not align with what Washington's representatives had agreed so far with the Russians. kompletan članak Doduše, može da ima veze i sa time što su Evropljani juče po prvi put od povratka krasnova na vlast imali priliku da Amerikancima prezentiraju šta su za njih crvene linije u pregovorima: Europeans outlined non-negotiable issues to US for Ukraine-Russia peace deal, French minister says Ja se nadam da su u pitanju oba, jer bi to potvrdilo da postoji ozbiljno jedinstvo između Ukrajine, Njemačke, Francuske i Velike Britanije.

Iako dnevna doza i njegovi obožavatelji lažu da trade deal sa Vijetnamom samo što nije, potezi vijetnamskih vlasti pokazuju suprotno - Vijetnam traži načine da dugoročno kompenzuje pad robne razmjene sa SAD: HANOI, April 23 (Reuters) - Vietnam is seeking to speed up its negotiations for new free trade agreements while more effectively exploiting the 17 ones it has already signed, as its export-reliant economy is bracing for U.S. tariffs. Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, in a directive issued late on Tuesday, urged the trade ministry to conclude or start free trade agreement talks with India, Brazil, Pakistan, Egypt and other markets in the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. U ostalim vijestima - i Evropska Komisija zna da pumpa, kad nema drugog izbora: BRUSSELS, April 23 (Reuters) - Apple (AAPL.O), opens new tab was fined 500 million euros ($570 million) on Wednesday and Meta (META.O), opens new tab 200 million euros, as European Union antitrust regulators handed out the first sanctions under landmark legislation aimed at curbing the power of Big Tech. The EU fines could stoke tensions with U.S President Donald Trump who has threatened to levy tariffs against countries that penalise U.S. companies. They follow a year-long investigation by the European Commission, the EU executive, into whether the companies comply with the Digital Markets Act that seeks to allow smaller rivals into markets dominated by the biggest companies. Apple said it would challenge the EU fine. "Today's announcements are yet another example of the European Commission unfairly targeting Apple in a series of decisions that are bad for the privacy and security of our users, bad for products, and force us to give away our technology for free," Apple said in an emailed statement. Meta also criticised the EU decision. "The European Commission is attempting to handicap successful American businesses while allowing Chinese and European companies to operate under different standards," it said in an emailed statement. "This isn't just about a fine; the Commission forcing us to change our business model, effectively imposing a multi-billion-dollar tariff on Meta while requiring us to offer an inferior service."

Vjerovatno je u nedostaku pouzdanih informacija neko spekulisao ili prosto pogriješio. Razumijem da bi bio spreman na određene ustupke u zamjenu za priznanje Krima, ali nema šanse da se odrekne kopnenog mosta od rusije ka krimu (kako zbog praktičnosti te veze, tako i zato što mora da zadrži Mariupolj pod ruskom vlašću kako nikad ne bi bili prezentovani sveobuhvatni dokazi o razmjerama civilnih žrtava tamo, koje se po svemu sudeći približavaju genocidu) i nema šanse da se odrekne Donjecka niti ovoga što je relativno nedavno okupirano južno, zapadno i sjeverno od Donjecka i što ga stavlja van domašaja ukrainske cijevne artiljerije). Takođe mislim da je ovaj okupirani dio Hersonske oblasti južno i istočno od Dnjepra off limits, jer je bitan za snabdijevanje Krima vodom, a i drži Ukrajince podalje od njega.

Da nisu ovo oni homegrowns? As leaders of America’s colleges, universities, and scholarly societies, we speak with one voice against the unprecedented government overreach and political interference now endangering American higher education. We are open to constructive reform and do not oppose legitimate government oversight. However, we must oppose undue government intrusion in the lives of those who learn, live, and work on our campuses. We will always seek effective and fair financial practices, but we must reject the coercive use of public research funding. America’s system of higher learning is as varied as the goals and dreams of the students it serves. It includes research universities and community colleges; comprehensive universities and liberal arts colleges; public institutions and private ones; freestanding and multi-site campuses. Some institutions are designed for all students, and others are dedicated to serving particular groups. Yet, American institutions of higher learning have in common the essential freedom to determine, on academic grounds, whom to admit and what is taught, how, and by whom. Our colleges and universities share a commitment to serve as centers of open inquiry where, in their pursuit of truth, faculty, students, and staff are free to exchange ideas and opinions across a full range of viewpoints without fear of retribution, censorship, or deportation. Because of these freedoms, American institutions of higher learning are essential to American prosperity and serve as productive partners with government in promoting the common good. Colleges and universities are engines of opportunity and mobility, anchor institutions that contribute to economic and cultural vitality regionally and in our local communities. They foster creativity and innovation, provide human resources to meet the fast-changing demands of our dynamic workforce, and are themselves major employers. They nurture the scholarly pursuits that ensure America’s leadership in research, and many provide healthcare and other essential services. Most fundamentally, America’s colleges and universities prepare an educated citizenry to sustain our democracy. The price of abridging the defining freedoms of American higher education will be paid by our students and our society. On behalf of our current and future students, and all who work at and benefit from our institutions, we call for constructive engagement that improves our institutions and serves our republic.

Još malo o posledicama mudrih odluka dnevne doze: Many Canadian 'snowbirds' in US looking to pack up and fly north - for good April 22 (Reuters) - The number of Canadian "snowbirds" planning to sell their second homes in sunny Florida and Arizona has surged this spring, many of them put off by the sudden chill that has blanketed relations between their homeland and the U.S. Real estate agents say they are seeing more Canadians cashing out, further softening property prices in warm-weather states that have long attracted retirees and tourists from cold and snowy Canada. Canadians spent close to $6 billion on U.S. real estate from April 2023 to March 2024 - making up 13% of all foreign transactions - more than any other nationality, according to data from the National Association of Realtors. Nearly half of the homes purchased by Canadians were for vacation purposes, with Florida, Arizona and Hawaii ranking as the top markets. Last week, Tracy and Dale McMullen sold their vacation home in Buckeye, Arizona, a property they owned for five years. The Alberta residents, who usually spend four to five months in Arizona a year, said they are not planning to come back. "We decided to sell the property after the current POTUS took office," said Dale, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump, who was inaugurated for the second time in January. "It was time to leave. We felt we could not trust what he might do next to us as individuals and to our country. We no longer felt welcome nor safe." Canadians are feeling stung by the actions and words of the Trump administration, which has imposed steep trade tariffs on its northern neighbor, threatening Canada's export-dependent economy. Trump's repeated suggestions that Canada should become a U.S. state, and his derogatory references to now-former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as "governor" have annoyed Canadians and offended their national pride. As a result, many Canadians are boycotting U.S.-made goods, such as bourbon and produce and canceling trips to U.S. destinations. Canadian return flights from the U.S. fell 13.5% in March from a year earlier, according to Statistics Canada. Canadian-resident return trips by automobile fell about 32%. Real estate is now facing a similar pullback in demand. Laurie Lavine, a realtor in Arizona who helped the McMullens with their sale, told Reuters that he currently has 18 listings from Canadians looking to sell, compared with the usual two to four per quarter. Trade friction and the current weakness of the Canadian dollar are also contributing to the pullback, Lavine said. Canadians are also feeling "picked on," with U.S. border agents enforcing stricter rules on entering the country, he added. Beginning this month, the Trump administration is requiring all foreigners 14 or older to register and submit fingerprints if they stay beyond 30 days. Canadians, who previously could visit for up to six months without a visa, are subject to the new requirement. FLORIDA HIT HARD The sour feelings that many Canadians suddenly feel toward the U.S. are having a big impact on the property market in Florida, one of the closest warm-weather states to Ontario and Quebec, Canada's most populous provinces. "South Florida's residential market has for decades been reliant on the annual influx of Canadian snowbirds who either own property and pay property tax or rent for the winter months - either way, a boost to the economy," said Ermengarde Jabir, a director of economic research at Moody's Analytics. The first quarter is typically the peak buying season for condominiums in the region, coinciding with when many snowbirds are in town, said Andrea Hartmann, managing partner of the Sandy Hartmann Group, a real estate firm in the Tampa Bay area. "Since the beginning of the year we have not received an offer from a Canadian buyer even once, and normally we would," she said. Florida's housing market is already reeling. Prospective buyers have faced rising insurance premiums, concerns over climate change and a series of devastating hurricanes in recent years. In the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater region, mortgage lock volume for second homes - or the number of buyers securing rates ahead of purchases - fell 25% on a year-over-year basis in the first quarter of 2025, according to Optimal Blue, a mortgage technology and data company. "Now with the political issue, the cost of maintaining a place here in Florida and the insurance, a lot of them decided to sell and go," said Ken O'Brian, owner of Southwest Coast Realty in Naples, which has specialized in helping Canadians purchase properties in Florida for about 20 years. "There is no incentive to come to the States anymore," said Donny B., a native of Ontario who is looking to sell his two investment properties in Florida. Like many snowbirds interviewed for this story, he declined to give his surname, saying he feared backlash. He said he decided to sell because of the political uncertainty, the exchange rate and concern about whether Floridians would still welcome Canadians in the current climate. "I got down here on Wednesday and I was nervous. I'm like, 'are people going to be 'pissed off' at me?'" Other states have started to see an exodus as well. Agents in Los Angeles and Palm Springs, California, are working with Canadian sellers who are quietly preparing to let go of their second homes, said Fatima Malik, global real estate advisor at Engel & Volkers Beverly Hills. "Some are holding back to see how things play out, but others are already shifting their sights toward places like Portugal, Mexico, and parts of France," she added.

Još jedan veliki uspjeh zbog kog će Sjedinjenodržavljanima biti bolje: US FDA suspends milk quality tests amid workforce cuts WASHINGTON, April 21 (Reuters) - The Food and Drug Administration is suspending a quality control program for testing of fluid milk and other dairy products due to reduced capacity in its food safety and nutrition division, according to an internal email seen by Reuters. The suspension is another disruption to the nation's food safety programs after the termination and departure of 20,000 employees of the Department of Health and Human Services, which includes the FDA, as part of President Donald Trump's effort to shrink the federal workforce. The FDA this month also suspended existing and developing programs that ensured accurate testing for bird flu in milk and cheese and pathogens like the parasite Cyclospora in other food products. Effective Monday, the agency suspended its proficiency testing program for Grade "A" raw milk and finished products, according to the email sent in the morning from the FDA's Division of Dairy Safety and addressed to "Network Laboratories." Grade "A" milk, or fluid milk, meets the highest sanitary standards. The testing program was suspended because FDA's Moffett Center Proficiency Testing Laboratory, part of its division overseeing food safety, "is no longer able to provide laboratory support for proficiency testing and data analysis," the email said. HHS did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Trump administration has proposed cutting $40 billion from the agency. The FDA's proficiency testing programs ensure consistency and accuracy across the nation's network of food safety laboratories. Laboratories also rely on those quality control tests to meet standards for accreditation. "The FDA is actively evaluating alternative approaches for the upcoming fiscal year and will keep all participating laboratories informed as new information becomes available," the email said.

Sad još ti da naučiš da koristiš google, pa da vidiš kako se na srpskom kaže "critical". Uzgred budi rečeno, nisam tvrdio da se izraz Sjedinjenodržavljanin koristi u SAD, nego u Americi. Možda ti za razliku od tvoje koleginice dobaciš do te razlike, kad napišem da si zaboravio, to ipak implicira i da si nekad nešto znao.

Ne lupaj samo da bi tvoja bila hronološki poslednja, radilo se o odgovoru na tvoje iščuđavanje na ime Sjedinjenodržavljani i na činjenicu da vas stotine miliona ljudi svakodnevno nazivaju upravo Sjedinjenodržavljanima, kao i na hinjenje nepoznavaoca nekoliko jezika da nije čuo taj izraz na španskom.

Već smo utvrdili da to što si zaboravio srpski ne znači samo po sebi da si naučio engleski, a kamo li španski. Estadounidense je standardni naziv za Sjedinjenodržavljanina na španskom jeziku, možeš na primjer da ga čuješ nekoliko puta u Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul univerzumu. Kako se ide južnije kroz Južnu Ameriku, tako se sve više koristi norteamericano kao sinonim, ali Meksikanci koriste isključivo estadounidense, jer oni sami sebe smatraju norteamericanos-ima. Evo šta piše na španskoj wikipedia stranici Donald J. Trumpa: Donald John Trump (pronunciación en inglés: /ˈdɑnəld ˈdʒɑːn trʌmp/ (escucharⓘ); Queens, Nueva York, 14 de junio de 1946) es un empresario, personalidad televisiva y político conservador[4][5] estadounidense. Miembro del Partido Republicano, es el 47.º presidente de los Estados Unidos desde el 20 de enero de 2025. EDIT: uostalom, Italijani kažu isključivo statunitense, Francuzi kažu américain, ali kad hoće da budu precizni kažu i Etats-unien.

I ovo je dobro za Sjedinjenodržavljane: Boeing jet returns to US from China, a victim of Trump's tariff war SEATTLE, April 19 (Reuters) - A Boeing (BA.N) jet intended for use by a Chinese airline landed back at the planemaker's U.S. production hub on Sunday, a victim of the tit-for-tat bilateral tariffs launched by President Donald Trump in his global trade offensive. The 737 MAX, which was meant for China's Xiamen Airlines, landed at Seattle's Boeing Field at 6:11 p.m. (0111 GMT), according to a Reuters witness. It was painted with Xiamen livery. The jet, which made refueling stops in Guam and Hawaii on its 5,000-mile (8,000-km) return journey, was one of several 737 MAX jets waiting at Boeing's Zhoushan completion center for final work and delivery to a Chinese carrier. Trump this month raised baseline tariffs on Chinese imports to 145%. In retaliation, China has imposed a 125% tariff on U.S. goods. A Chinese airline taking delivery of a Boeing jet could be crippled by the tariffs, given that a new 737 MAX has a market value of around $55 million, according to IBA, an aviation consultancy. It is not clear which party made the decision for the aircraft to return to the U.S. Boeing did not immediately respond to request for comment. Xiamen did not respond to request for comment. The return of the 737 MAX, Boeing's best-selling model, is the latest sign of disruption to new aircraft deliveries from a breakdown in the aerospace industry's decades-old duty-free status. The tariff war and apparent U-turn over deliveries comes as Boeing has been recovering from an almost five-year import freeze on 737 MAX jets and a previous round of trade tensions. Confusion over changing tariffs could leave many aircraft deliveries in limbo, with some airline CEOs saying they would defer delivery of planes rather than pay duties, analysts say.
