<content:encoded><![CDATA[PAMPLONA, 4 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Secretary of Organization of the PSOE, Santos Cerdán, has accused the right of a "dirty war" through "persecution" and "personal targeting" with the aim of "overthrowing the Government" and has appealed for a "deep debate" in around "democratic regeneration."This was claimed during his speech at the Regional Committee of the Socialist Party of Navarra, which was held this Saturday at the Baluarte Auditorium in Pamplona with the presence of the general secretary of the PSN and president of Navarra, María Chivite, as well as Minister Elma. Saiz.Cerdán has lamented the "unbreathable" atmosphere, especially in Madrid, where he has had to have an escort again, due to the "toxic climate and dirty war to which PP and Vox have dedicated themselves since we came to government" because "they do not respect the polls". "We have the worst opposition in the history of this country, what happens in this legislature has nothing to do with what happened to other PSOE presidents," he criticized.He has lamented the "persecution" and "personal targeting" that has "exceeded the limits." "It is not a polarization, there is a culprit who is the right of this country" with a "total war against us," stated the socialist, recalling proclamations such as 'Let Txapote vote for you', "violent demonstrations", "aggressions", "a hanging doll - of Sánchez - that was being beaten" or the president of the Community of Madrid calling the President of the Government a 'son of a bitch' and then "making t-shirts and pins with the funny 'I like fruit'". We have to say enough is enough," he claimed.Santos Cerdán has criticized that the president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has denied in an interview that he "has insulted" Sánchez and has recalled that he called him a "despot, caudillo, egomaniac, felon, sectarian or corrupt." "The worst thing is that they transfer that hatred to public life and there are people who buy it and transfer that hatred to us when they see us," he lamented.All as a consequence of "a perfectly orchestrated disinformation strategy aimed at personal destruction with the aim of bringing down a Government at any price," he rejected.The Secretary of Organization of the PSOE has warned of the "cycle of hoax, with remote-controlled lies that reach some media outlet or paid website, amplified with total impunity, which end up in gatherings and, sometimes, in parliamentary headquarters" or " judicialized". In this regard, he recalled the "patriotic police, false reports and evidence, giving rise to causes that later come to nothing" at the hands of "extreme right-wing organizations such as Clean Hands or Hazte Oír." He has also referred to Villarejo's audios in which he stated that they "control" Clean Hands and there was talk of "killing" Pedro Sánchez. "Everything happened through M. Rajoy and these are the ways that Feióo and the PP have," he assured.The socialist has also criticized the "anti-memory laws" of PP and Vox that "equate victims with executioners, dictatorship with democracy." "The setback of this reactionary coalition is real, even violating human rights," warned Cerdán, who insisted that "we cannot wait any longer, we must open a collective debate" around "democratic regeneration." "We have to put our foot on the wall," he defended.He has drawn attention to a "perfectly organized modus operandi that generates citizen disaffection and perverts democracy." "When the discrepancy abandons the debate and goes into the mud, we all lose, they try to overthrow a Government with a dirty war," she reproached. "Politics cannot become a human meat grinder, which is what the political, media and economic right have dedicated themselves to since we returned to the Government," he highlighted.Santos Cerdán has highlighted that Pedro Sánchez "has said enough to that mud machine" and has called for a "deep and serene debate" that has to do with "misinformation, the kidnapping of the CGPJ and the use of justice to eliminate the political adversary." Also with "clean politics and strengthening democracy." "It is a job that must be started, not stopped and will last a long time" and that needs "all citizens," he stressed. Likewise, he has highlighted that it is "time for rearmament, to make the party strong" because "without a strong party, we will leave the Government."]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Aragonès and Puigdemont are fighting for second place and some polls give them a technical tie BARCELONA, 4 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Catalan electoral campaign reaches the midpoint marked by the decision of the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, to continue in office after reflecting on it for 5 days after the denunciation of Manos Médicas to his wife, and with the PSC candidate, Salvador Illa , leading the polls ahead of ERC and Junts.In fact, Illa maintains the first position in all the polls published to date with a range of up to 40-47 seats, while the second position is disputed by the president of the Generalitat and ERC candidate, Pere Aragonès, and the Junts, Carles Puigdemont, who in some polls are in a technical tie.Given the socialist's starting position, the rest of the candidates have put the focus of criticism on him, so Illa has appealed to the vote to have enough strength to govern alone.Sánchez's letter in which he announced that he was entering a period of reflection shook the beginning of the campaign, since the president decided to cancel his agenda, which included the opening of the campaign in Sabadell and an event last Sunday in Santa Coloma de Gramenet (Barcelona).However, the leader of the PSOE burst into the Catalan campaign this Thursday in Sant Boi de Llobregat (Barcelona) "willing" to mobilize the vote for Illa, in a pavilion that was filled by 2,000 people, while another 1,000 followed the event outside of a big screen.Aragonès has claimed that his Government has reversed the cuts and that Catalonia now literally has more teachers, more doctors and more police officers than ever, while pointing out his two main competitors, Illa and Puigdemont: "Salvador Illa's proposal is more Moncloa and more Spain. Carles Puigdemont's is Carles Puigdemont".The third in dispute, former president Carles Puigdemont, has set the epicenter of his campaign in Argelès-sur-mer (France), less than 40 kilometers from the border, where he plans his return to be "reinstated" as president, to the time that he defends returning to understanding with the pro-independence forces to continue defending the independence of Catalonia.The Vox candidate, Ignacio Garriga, who was supported by the leader of the formation, Santiago Abascal, at an event in Tarragona last Sunday, maintains that PSC, ERC and Junts are "the same", and blames them for the data from crime and the increase in insecurity and wasting public money with the independence process.The number 1 of the CUP for Barcelona, Laia Estrada, has focused her interventions on putting forward proposals to improve public services, and has repeatedly called on ERC, Junts and Comuns to reach agreements in the next legislature, while at the same time defends independence to "overcome the regime of '78."The Comuns Sumar candidate, Jéssica Albiach, who has focused on Barcelona and its metropolitan area during the first half of the campaign, has committed to not agreeing with any right-wing force after 12M - excluding Junts, PP, Cs and Vox--, and has defended that their formation will be the guarantee that projects such as the Hard Rock, the expansion of the Airport and the B-40 will not be carried out.For his part, Carlos Carrizosa (Cs) asks for the vote with the aim of his formation continuing to have representation in the Parliament: they establish themselves as a party that does not depend on Madrid and appeals to PSC voters who feel "betrayed" by the approval of the Amnesty Law.Finally, the PP candidate, Alejandro Fernández, has started the campaign supported by different popular leaders such as Alberto Núñez Feijóo, Cuca Gamarra and Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, and has advocated throwing Puigdemont and Sánchez "into the trash can of History."]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, called this Saturday for the resignation or dismissal of the Minister of Transport, Óscar Puente, for his statements about the president of Argentina, Javier Milei."Today Mr. Puente should resign or be fired, but he is neither going to resign nor be fired, because Puente and Sánchez enjoy the quagmire in which they are trying to put Spain," he declared at a rally in Badalona (Barcelona) alongside the candidate, Alejandro Fernández, and the mayor, Xavier García Albiol.Feijóo has warned that "they have just created a political crisis with a sister country such as the Republic of Argentina."Puente said on Friday at a colloquium on communication and social networks in Salamanca: "I saw Milei on TV and I said, as I was listening to him, I don't know in what state, prior to ingesting or after ingesting what substances, and He came out to say that and I said: it is impossible for him to win the elections, he dug his grave.Feijóo has criticized the Government of Pedro Sánchez, who asks "that they not be insulted and they insult everyone", but in his opinion they do it because they try to break and divide."They say they are fed up with hoaxes and they are a hoax factory; they talk about mud when they really move like no one else in the quagmire," he added.For him, it is "unfortunate that relations with a president are tense in this way" and he has defended that Spain deserves, literally, another level.During this central act of the Catalan campaign, Feijóo has claimed that "the PP does not overact like Sánchez, but only acts"."The Popular Party does not sell its voters like Illa nor does it sell its country like Sánchez," he added.Likewise, he has assured that in Sánchez's idea of democracy there is only docility and no place for accountability: "No one is safe from the purge."]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 4 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Government of Spain has flatly rejected the unfounded terms of the statement issued by the Office of the President of the Argentine Republic that "do not correspond to the relations of two brother countries and peoples."This was stated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation in a statement after the president of Argentina, Javier Milei, charged against the head of the Spanish Executive, Pedro Sánchez, saying that "he has more important problems than those he take care of", in response to some statements made this Friday about the Argentine leader by the Minister of Transportation, Óscar Puente.Following the statement from the Argentine president, the Ministry headed by José Manuel Albares has assured that the Government and the Spanish people "will continue to maintain and strengthen their fraternal ties and their relations of friendship and collaboration with the Argentine people, a will shared by the entire Spanish society." "."The Government of Pedro Sánchez has more important problems to deal with, such as the accusations of corruption leveled against his wife, an issue that even led him to evaluate his resignation," Milei said in a statement published on the social network X.In this sense, the Argentine president hopes that Justice will act "quickly" in the face of this case of corruption which, as he added, "affects the stability" of Spain and the relations between both countries.In addition, he has accused President Pedro Sánchez of "jeopardizing" the unity of Spain by "agreeing with separatists", women by "allowing the illegal immigration of those who threaten their physical integrity" and the middle class, by "socialist policies." that only bring poverty and death".]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[VALENCIA, May 4. (EUROPA PRESS) -A research team from the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) - belonging to the IGIC Institute on the Gandia campus - has developed a new sensor system that allows obtaining the fingerprint of essential oils, identifying their origin and even if they have been adulterated.So far they have applied it to the oils of a forest crop, specifically sticky rockrose, although it could be applied to other products. His work has been published in the magazines 'Sustanability' and 'Sensors'.The group led by Jaime Lloret and formed by Sandra Sendra, José Miguel Jiménez, Lorena Parra, Sandra Viciano, Ali Ahmad, Francisco Javier Díaz, aims to identify through the use of sensor technology the state of maturity of a forestry crop.The sticky rockrose produces a series of high-value biomaterials, the quantity and quality of which are affected by environmental conditions. "Our objective was to use low-cost sensors to detect the state of maturity of plants through the gases and volatile organic compounds that they emit in the natural environment," Jaime Lloret explains in a statement.Using seven gas sensors, each designed to measure different types of gases, and combining their measurements with artificial intelligence, the system developed by this UPV team is capable of identifying different volatile organic compounds. "After generating a database with these sensors, applying artificial intelligence, we train the system so that it is capable of classifying or differentiating odors," adds Sandra Sendra.The first application of this system was to differentiate rockrose oils from pine oil and rockrose oil adulterated with pine oil. And in their latest work, the team has been able to differentiate sticky rockrose essential oils with different quality.The main advantages of this system are its low cost and ease of use. Currently, to differentiate between types of oils and, especially to quantify the chemical compounds present in them, complex chemical analyzes are used that require specialized personnel and equipment with a high level of maintenance."These analyzes are usually carried out by specialized companies and laboratories, which represents a high cost for companies that work with the oils and want to know their characteristics," declares Lloret.The UPV team is currently working on the detection and quantification of specific molecules such as alpha-pinene, which is the main compound in the group of terpenic hydrocarbons."To do this, we are going to combine the use of sensors with multiple samples, whose concentration of chemical compounds are known to create a database. This data will be processed with more powerful artificial intelligence techniques than those that have been used until now. "adds Lorena Parra.For the development and validation of this system, the UPV team has had the collaboration of the Madrid Institute of Rural, Agrarian and Food Research and Development (IMDIRA) and the Renewable Energy Development Center - Energy, Environmental and Research Center Technological (CEDER-CIEMAT).]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 4 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The president of Argentina, Javier Milei, has charged against the head of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, who "has more important problems to deal with", in response to statements made this Friday about him by the Spanish Minister of Transport, Oscar Puente."The Government of Pedro Sánchez has more important problems to deal with, such as the accusations of corruption leveled against his wife, an issue that even led him to evaluate his resignation," Milei said in a statement published on the social network X.In this sense, the Argentine president hopes that Justice will act "quickly" in the face of this case of corruption which, as he added, "affects the stability" of Spain and the relations between both countries.In addition, he has accused President Pedro Sánchez of "jeopardizing" the unity of Spain by "agreeing with separatists", women by "allowing the illegal immigration of those who threaten their physical integrity" and the middle class, by "socialist policies." that only bring poverty and death".The office of the president of Argentina has issued these words in response to statements by the Spanish Minister of Transport and Mobility, Óscar Puente, in which he has accused Milei of "ingesting substances", something that the Argentine Presidency has described as "slander and insults.""I saw Milei on TV and I said, as I was listening to him, I don't know what state he was in, before ingesting or after ingesting what substances, and he came out to say that and I said, it's impossible for him to win the elections, he dug his grave, well no," Puente declared in a colloquium on communication and social networks held this Friday in Salamanca.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[He says that "the best thing to do" is to read the texts and not consider laws approved that have not yet been approved in the CCAA.FIGUERES (GIRONA), 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, valued this Friday the UN report that urges Spain to preserve historical memory in the face of the concord laws of PP and Vox: "We are not going to forget either the dictatorship or the terrorist group "ETA. Furthermore, he has said that "the best thing to do" is to read the texts and not consider laws approved that "are not yet approved" in the CCAA.This has been stated after the UN has urged the Government of Spain to "take the necessary measures" to preserve historical memory in the face of the concord laws processed by PP and Vox in Aragón, the Valencian Community and Castilla y León, alleging that can "invisibilize" the "serious violations of Human Rights" committed during the "Franco dictatorial regime."In statements to journalists before the Dalí Museum in Figueres (Girona), the head of the opposition has contrasted his position with that of the socialist Executive, after the PSOE agreed with Bildu on the memory law. "Unfortunately, the Government has a commitment to Bildu. We cannot speak of a terrorist group. We, yes," he emphasized.Feijóo, who appeared alongside the PP candidate for the European elections, Dolors Montserrat, and the provincial president and number 1 for Girona in the Catalan elections, Jaume Veray, said that, in response to the report, "the best that can be "do" is to read the texts and not consider approved laws that have not yet been approved."For the Popular Party, Franco's 40 years have been a dictatorship and ETA has been a terrorist group. This is what the laws intend and is our commitment to historical memory," he added.The leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, already announced before the general elections of July 23 that if he arrived at the Moncloa Palace he would repeal the memory law and this was included in his electoral program."We will promote, repealing the so-called law of democratic memory, a new consensual norm that reinforces the democratic principles and national reconciliation that founded the constitutional pact during the Transition, as well as the democratic coexistence of a society, the Spanish one, that aspires to justice and the recognition of the truth," says the PP program.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[ MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -A total of 19,887 migrants have arrived irregularly in Spain so far this year, 13,029 more people (that is, 190%) than in the same period of 2023 (6,858), according to the latest balance sheet from the Ministry of the Interior. date of May 2, collected by Europa Press. Of the total number of people who have entered Spain from January to May 2, 2024, 15,982 have done so through the Canary Islands by sea.Specifically, from January 1 to May 2, 18,930 migrants have arrived by sea in Spain, 189.1% more than the same period in 2023 (6,547).

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Andalusia, the Valencian Community and Castilla y León oppose the measure: "It is a mistake" MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -Several Autonomous Communities, such as Castilla-La Mancha, Extremadura or the Community of Madrid, have announced their intention to create Bullfighting Awards after the Ministry of Culture's announcement to eliminate the National Bullfighting Award, while others such as Andalusia, Community Valencia or Castilla y León have opposed the measure adopted by the department of Urtasun, which has argued its decision on the fact that these awards must be "a faithful reflection of the evaluations and feelings of society" as the increase in concern for animal welfareIn this sense, the president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, announced this Friday, through the social network 'X', that this autonomous community intends to contact the bullfighting sector to create from the region some Bullfighting Awards. "These awards also have the ambition of being able to be coordinated or shared with other autonomies, since we intend for them to have national and international scope," he detailed.As reported by the regional government in a press release, the first vice president of the Castilla-La Mancha Executive, José Luis Martínez Guijarro, contacted the Fighting Bull Foundation this Friday "to organize the bases for that award." "We do not intend for it to be exclusive to our autonomous community, but we are willing to coordinate it and share it with other institutions," he said.Along the same lines, they have spoken from the Community of Madrid, where the Minister of the Environment, Interior and Agriculture, Carlos Novillo, has announced that this Community will host the Bullfighting Awards and has advanced that "they are working with the Toro de Lidia Foundation to maintain that award", with the idea that it continues "with that name" and "the same jury" continues to participate."It is terrible news. It is turning our back on what our traditions are, on the identity of our country. One more attack from the Government that wants to dilute the idea of Spain so that it disappears," Novillo said. "We are not going to allow it to be lost," he reiterated.Furthermore, he has indicated that the Community of Madrid hopes that "it can be accepted at the national level and that the rest of the autonomous communities also join this initiative", with the aim that "it is not lost." As indicated later by the regional government, they will provide support and facilities.The president of the Government of Aragon, Jorge Azcón, has joined the proposal to create new Bullfighting Awards, who has also announced on the social network 'X', that he will propose the creation of the 'Nicanor Villalta' Award, "in honor to the historic Aragonese bullfighter", to the best work of the bullfighting season in Zaragoza, Huesca and Teruel.Azcón explained that the creation of this award "is a decision agreed upon with the Association of Bullfighting Informants of Aragon, which will be part of the jury."The Extremadura Government has also expressed its willingness to assume the call and award of the National Bullfighting Prize eliminated by the Government. Thus, the regional Executive has expressed, through a press release, its "firm support" for the National Festival, "reviled by the Ministry of Culture with its announcement not to call said award for the year 2024."From the Valencian Government, the first vice president and Minister of Culture and Sports, Vicente Barrera (Vox), has announced the support of his department to the proposal of the Government of Extremadura to accept the award and has offered "all the support" of the Consell to "protect" him.Other autonomous communities have shown their discontent with the decision of the Ministry of Culture to suppress the National Bullfighting Award, such as Andalusia, the Valencian Community or Castilla y León.In this sense, the Minister of the Presidency, Interior, Social Dialogue and Administrative Simplification of the Government of Andalusia, Antonio Sanz, has described this decision as a "monumental error" and "embarrassing spectacle", while reproaching the Government of Pedro Sánchez. that "turns its back on a historical pillar of" Spanish culture, as well as a "very important economic pillar from which many families live" both in the countryside and in tourism. "Bulls are culture, tourism and economy," the counselor insisted.Meanwhile, the president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Carlos Mazón, has described the Ministry's position as a "joke in bad taste" and has considered that "it is not good news." "If that is the path that the Government of Spain has decided to go against culture and tradition, it is the wrong path," said the president, who also described the proposal as "nonsense."As for the vice president of the Junta de Castilla y León, Juan García-Gallardo, he has defended the promotion of all types of cultural and artistic expression after learning that the Ministry has decided to suppress the National Bullfighting Award. "If the minister doesn't like bulls, don't go," he said.The vice president has explained that those who occupy positions of public responsibility should not promote issues linked to personal tastes but should work to "widen the cultural space so that people, whatever they are, are people of upper class, lower class, working class, have access to all the cultural manifestations that exist in Spain".From Zaragoza, the deputy secretary of Culture and spokesperson for the PP, Borja Sémper, has announced that when the 'popular' people reach the Government of Spain, "sooner rather than later", they will reinstate the National Bullfighting Award. Subsequently, the PP has announced that it will register an initiative in the Senate to request the Government to restore the National Bullfighting Award, as 'popular' sources have informed Europa Press.In this regard, the PP spokesperson in the Senate, Alicia García, has described this decision of the Ministry of Culture as "regrettable and sectarian" and recalled that she herself created the Bullfighting Prize of Castilla y León in 2015.For their part, from the Executive, several ministers have expressed their support for the Culture decision, such as the Minister of Youth and Children, Sira Rego, who has highlighted that this decision is part of a country that "advances in rights" and with " "increasing sensitivity regarding animal abuse". "It is a good initiative and a declaration of intentions," she stressed.For the leader of Sumar and second vice president, Yolanda Díaz, "the social majority of Spain is already against animal abuse. Not rewarding it makes us a more advanced society," she stated through the social network 'X', while The Minister of Health, Mónica García, has also pointed out through this network that the withdrawal of this award is "an important first step towards a culture without suffering, at the level of a country that advances like Spain." "You cannot reward animal abuse," she added.As for the Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, he has indicated that Urtasun's decision is a "own responsibility" of his department. Precisely, the Minister of Culture has assured that the decision to suppress this award is a decision that "connects" with a "majority" feeling and has assured that traditions must "evolve" so there should not be an award that is related to "animal torture" and is associated with "an investment with public money." "A majority of Spaniards support the decision I have made today," he argued.]]></content:encoded>

But we have considered, as the Ministry of Culture, that current Spanish society probably prefers that these types of activities not be awarded. ", he highlighted.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, has attacked the three autonomous governments of PP and Vox that have promoted the so-called concord laws, following the report of the United Nations rapporteurs demanding necessary measures to preserve historical memory, and has warned that The Spanish Executive will defend "the democratic memory and dignity of the victims of Franco's regime."According to the president, "equating victims with executioners is the opposite of harmony" and "equating dictatorship with democracy is the opposite of the truth." "The setback represented by the autonomous governments of Feijóo and Abascal are not a threat but a reality," Sánchez indicated in a message published on the social network X.The UN has urged the Government of Spain to "take the necessary measures" to preserve historical memory in the face of the concord laws passed by PP and Vox in Aragón, the Valencian Community and Castilla y León, claiming that they can "invisibilize" the " serious violations of Human Rights" committed during the "Franco dictatorial regime."This is what three United Nations rapporteurs have expressed in a report in which they responded to the complaint presented by the Government against the so-called "concord laws" that have been processed in three of the territories where PP and Vox govern in coalition. The central Executive raised the issue with the UN, considering that these regulations are "contrary" to the values included in the Democratic Memory Law approved last legislature."The so-called 'concord' laws approved or presented for parliamentary approval in the autonomous communities of Aragón, Castilla y León, and Valencia, could affect the obligation of the Spanish State, including its powers and national or local entities, in matters of Human Rights. Human Rights, in particular the obligation to guarantee the preservation of the historical memory of serious violations of Human Rights," reads the UN document.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The university project seeks to break records with a 17 kilo prototype capable of reaching 2,800 km/hVALENCIA, May 3. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Faraday Rocketry UPV team, integrated into the Spontaneous Generation program of the Universitat Politècnica de València, has presented 'Origin', the rocket with which they intend to exceed ten kilometers of vertical flight. A project that, they trust, is the "beginning of the journey to space."With a fuselage three meters high and 17 kilos, mainly composed of fiberglass and a double layer connected by aluminum, the university project has ensured that the rocket is prepared for a "perfectly safe and successful" flight.This was stated this Friday at the presentation of 'Origin', Faraday's fourth "great project" after 'Aspera', 'Astra' and 'Genesis', the rocket with which the UPV students won the award for best flight of Euroc 2023 -the European rocket launching championship.With this prototype, Faraday - made up of 56 students from different academic disciplines - aims to overcome the barrier of ten kilometers of vertical flight and establish a new height record for rockets manufactured by students, which is currently seven kilometers.To this end, they have designed the "largest and most powerful" prototype in the history of the university project with more than 2,000 horsepower that will make the rocket reach 2,800 km/h, which is equivalent to traveling the distance between Valencia and Madrid in " just seven minutes."The students of this UPV project have worked "very hard" for eight months to present a rocket that has created "modular and reusable" avionics from scratch, while incorporating ejectable elements that will make it possible to recover the entire fuselage using parachutes.In this sense, the teams involved in the design of 'Origin' have carried out tests in the UPV wind tunnels to be "prepared for critical descent speeds." In anticipation of these scenarios, they have incorporated a rocket recovery system that includes a float so that the warhead "does not get lost in the middle of the Atlantic."Despite this, the creators have highlighted the "simplicity" of the prototype to reduce the complexity of the systems, thus shortening development and testing times and economic costs.'Origin' is the "beginning of the trip to space", since Faraday have also announced that they are working on 'Karman', a series of rockets with which UPV students seek to become the second university in the world to reach space with a vertical flight up to 120 km high.An "ambitious" project with which they intend to compete with the United States to demonstrate that "we have plenty of resources and talent to compete. Europe has a lot to say in the aerospace industry and the UPV as well," the Faraday team said during the presentation.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -This Friday, the Ibex 35 concluded its worst week since the beginning of last August with a fall of 2.69%, reaching 10,854.7 points, weighed down by large financial entities and Inditex.The main indicator of the Spanish market, which has ended a streak of two consecutive weeks of growth, despite everything, has accumulated a positive return so far this year of 7.45%.The stock market week, between April and May and which kept the stock markets closed on Wednesday for Labor Day, has been full of macroeconomic and business events, such as banking results, the announcement of an eventual merger of BBVA and Banco Sabadell, the meeting of the Federal Reserve (Fed) and the stock market debut this Friday of the Catalan conglomerate Puig.The key day of the week was Tuesday, when the index plummeted more than 2% (its worst session since March 2023) due to the downward pressure from BBVA, Banco Santander and Caixabank, which precisely concluded the week as the values with the steepest declines.That day the proposed merger of BBVA with Sabadell was announced. In this regard, XTB analyst, Joaquín Robles, pointed out that "although there has not yet been a response from the Catalan entity, it seems that the positions are closer than in 2020."The bank resulting from the merger of BBVA and Banco Sabadell would surpass CaixaBank as the largest bank in Spain, without taking into account foreign businesses, according to balance sheet data from financial entities compiled by Europa Press.On the other hand, the large Spanish banks have continued to improve their results in the first quarter of 2024, pulverizing the profits they obtained last year, achieving a joint net profit of 6,676.8 million euros, 17.2% more than in the same period of 2023, according to data collected by Europa Press.These figures take into account the consolidated results of Bankinter, Sabadell, BBVA, Unicaja, Santander and CaixaBank. All of them have continued to rely on income growth in this first part of the year, especially margins, in the face of high interest rates.The next day -Wednesday-, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the United States Federal Reserve (Fed) decided to maintain interest rates in the target range of 5.25 for the sixth consecutive meeting. % to 5.5%, highest since January 2001.In the press appearance after the announcement, the president of the Fed, Jerome Powell, stressed that rate cuts are far away due to the lack of confidence about inflation, so the market does not expect cuts until the end of the year.On the other hand, the market does expect the ECB to make a move at its June meeting thanks to data such as eurozone inflation in April, which stood at 2.4% in the annual rate, as reported by Eurostat on Wednesday.This Friday, in which the Ibex recorded a decrease of 0.16%, it highlighted that the unemployment rate in the United States has risen more than expected, to 3.9%, which has partially relieved the pressure of the market on the idea of an aggressive and extensive monetary policy by the Fed.Given this situation, the biggest increases within the Ibex 35 throughout the week have been for Banco Sabadell (11.47%), Solaria (7.48%), Unicaja (6.44%) and Grifols (6.01 %).On the other hand, the stocks with the worst weekly performance were BBVA (-10.33%), Caixabank (-7.02%), Banco Santander (-6.6%), Inditex (-5.56%), Rovi ( -2.53%) and Repsol (-2.34%).The fashion and perfumery group Puig Brands has closed its first day on the Spanish stock market flat with its shares at 24.5 euros, after having risen more than 8% at the beginning of its trading on the stock market.The evolution of European markets has been uneven this Friday: Milan has subtracted 0.32%, while London, Paris and Frankfurt have added half a percentage point each thanks to the aforementioned employment report from the United States and the increases of more than 1% of Wall Street.Regarding the New York indicators, Robles has pointed out that among the results of the technological giants those of Apple have stood out, since, although it suffered a new drop in its sales, it rebounded by announcing the largest share buyback program in history valued at 110 billion dollars.At the same time, the price of a barrel of Brent quality oil, a reference for the Old Continent, fell more than 5% in the week, to 83.2 dollars, while that of Texas stood at 78.4 dollars, 6.5% less.In the foreign exchange market, the price of the euro against the dollar advanced 0.7% in the week, up to 1.0767 'greenbacks', while in the debt market the interest required on the 10-year Spanish bond It closed at 3.258% after subtracting one tenth from last Friday's close; The risk premium (the spread with the German bond) remained at 76.5 points.According to Robles, during the next week there will be fewer references that can move the markets, although among the most notable are the services PMI in Spain and the Bank of England's monetary policy meeting.In addition, the business results in Spain of Spanish companies such as Indra, Amadeus, Endesa, Rovi, Fluidra, Logista, Ferrovial, Telefónica, ACS, Sacyr, Meliá and IAG will be known.]]></content:encoded>

(EUROPA PRESS) -The Minister of the Environment, Interior and Agriculture of the Community of Madrid, Carlos Novillo, has announced that the regional Government will launch its own Bullfighting Award with the help of the Toro de Lidia Foundation, after the central Government has announced that will dispense with these national awards due to "concern" for animal welfare."It is terrible news. It is turning our back on what our traditions are, on the identity of our country.

We are already working with the Toro de Lidia Foundation to maintain that award," said Novillo, who stressed that they want the award to continue "with that name" and for "the same jury to continue participating."

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Guijarro has already transferred it to the Toro de Lidia FoundationThe president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, announced this Friday that the Autonomous Community intends to contact the bullfighting sector to create Bullfighting Awards from the region.This was indicated on his 'X' social network account, where he added that these awards "also have the ambition of being able to be coordinated or shared with other autonomies, since we intend for them to have national and international scope."García-Page's announcement comes after the Ministry of Culture has made the decision to suppress the National Bullfighting Award.The Ministry argues that the National Awards should be "a faithful reflection of the values and feelings of society", such as increased concern for animal welfare.As reported by the regional government in a press release, the first vice president of the Castilian-Manchego Executive, José Luis Martínez Guijarro, has indicated that this morning he spoke with the Fighting Bull Foundation "to organize the bases of this award that does not "We intend for it to be exclusive to our Autonomous Community, but we are willing to coordinate it and share it with other institutions."In this sense, Martínez Guijarro has stressed that the regional government considers it "justice that the value of people in the bullfighting sector can be recognized" and, precisely, that is where the regional president's initiative comes from and he has assured that, The regional Executive does not share the decision of the Minister of Culture, which he has called an "unnecessary attack" on the bullfighting sector.In response to questions from the media, he recalled that bullfighting is a tradition deeply rooted in the vast majority of the municipalities of Castilla-La Mancha with the consequent weight it represents on the region's economy.That is why, he stressed, "we respect our traditions and support all our economic sectors" and an example of this is that this year, on Regional Day, which is celebrated on May 31, the recognition is to the Toro de Lidia Foundation.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Given the response of several CCAA to create autonomous awards, he defends that, "within the framework of their powers", each one does "what they consider" MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Minister of Culture and spokesman for Sumar, Ernest Urtasun, has assured that the decision to suppress the National Bullfighting Award is a decision that "connects" with a "majority" feeling and has assured that traditions must "evolve" so There should not be an award that is related to "animal torture" and is associated with "an investment with public money." "A majority of Spaniards support the decision I have made today," he argued."What we have done is eliminate an award related to animal torture and which, I insist, was associated with an investment with public money. Issues that are related to animal torture will not be awarded by the national awards. This decision that I I have taken is consistent with the animal welfare law and with an increasingly majority sentiment among Spaniards," Urtasun explained in statements to La Sexta collected by Europa Press.Furthermore, the minister has stated that this is "a unique decision" by the Ministry of Culture, which is why "no one" from the socialist part of the Government has contacted him. "This is a competition of mine, of the Ministry of Culture, because the national awards are established through a ministerial order and therefore it is a sole decision of the new team of the Ministry of Culture, who are competent to establish the awards nationals," he reiterated.As the minister detailed, the national awards "respond in some way to a general feeling of what Spain is" and he recalled that "the Spanish reality is evolving and these national awards have been evolving to adapt to that new reality.""What I asked the ministry and my teams was to review the awards we granted and, indeed, we came to the conclusion that taking into account that there is an increasingly growing majority of Spaniards, increasingly concerned and concerned about animal welfare, we did not believe that it was appropriate to continue maintaining an award that rewards a form of animal abuse. This decision, I insist, is part of a process of creating national awards that respond to what the Spanish reality is," he reiterated."It is not only a personal conviction of mine, it is also a conviction of Spain," added Urtasun, for whom there is a "majority feeling among a part of Spaniards who understand less and less that animal torture is practiced in our country and who understand even less so that these forms of animal torture are awarded with medals.On the other hand, given the announcement by several autonomous communities to promote their own Bullfighting Awards - as they have already announced from Castilla-La Mancha or the Community of Madrid, among others -, Urtasun has assured that "within the framework of its powers ", each community does "what it considers", although it has made it ugly that, in 2024, "someone" considers that "animal torture" should be rewarded."Each administration, within the framework of its powers, is free to consider and set the priorities it wants. If someone considers that today, in 2024, forms of animal torture should be rewarded with public money, then it is free to do so," he said.Furthermore, the minister recalled that, in 2022, according to Ministry statistics, less than 2 percent of Spaniards attended some type of bullfighting show and added that Culture would do "a disservice" to Spanish culture if did not adapt to "those new realities."For this reason, Urtasun has announced that the objective is to "definitively" eliminate the ministerial order that protects these National Awards and has explained that the modification process will begin with a public consultation, "a procedure that must be done.""We must follow some more administrative steps until the publication of a new ministerial order in which this award will no longer appear. We have made the decision at this time, because we had to begin the entire process of constituting the juries of what will be the awards and, therefore, we have announced it today (the elimination of the National Bullfighting Award) to say that at the beginning of this process of the different awards, we will not call the Bullfighting Award and we will proceed to modify the ministerial order to eliminate it definitely," he added.Faced with criticism from the Popular Party, the current Minister of Culture has disgraced the PP for "always" opposing "freedoms and rights" such as animal welfare but, when he comes to power, he "never dares" to reverse these decisions."In the end, these decisions in favor of more rights, more freedom, and in this case more animal welfare, are supported by a majority of Spaniards who support them and agree," he concluded.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[He believes that "he is digging his own grave" and that his reflection was nothing more than a "political calculation" that damages the image of the countryMADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The former vice president of the Government Alfonso Guerra believes that the head of the Executive, Pedro Sánchez, is adopting a "dangerously autocratic" approach and is generating division "between the two Spains" after having taken five days to reflect on whether to resign, in a gesture that the veteran socialist considers that it was nothing more than a "political calculation."This is how he spoke in an interview in the British newspaper 'The Times', collected by Europa Press, in which he disgraces the President of the Government for having kept the country in suspense for five days to finally not only announce that he is continuing but that he will even try to opt to a third term.In his opinion, it is nothing more than a "political calculation" that "is not compatible with a parliamentary democracy" like the Spanish one. "This is a style of presidential government, which recalls the tensions of the 1930s when a leader said 'I decide and the people listen and applaud'," stressed Guerra, for whom "it is a sign of his dangerous, increasingly autocratic approach." .The former vice president has ridiculed Sánchez's argument that he decided to continue after seeing the displays of support, in particular the one that occurred in front of the PSOE headquarters in Madrid, stressing that there were "small demonstrations" of support organized by the party. Likewise, he has stressed that the favorable poll published on Monday by the CIS is the work of an entity in question for its polls tailored to the president.In Guerra's opinion, "what has happened has caused a serious deterioration in Spain's international image." "It took a lot of effort to build Spain's prestige after a long dictatorship during the Transition, which put Spain on the map," he recalled, ensuring that "recovering it will cost a lot."On the other hand, he has warned that "a Government that attacks the press is digging its own grave", in reference to the criticism made by the president against what he has called "pseudo media" and also against some digital media for publishing information in relationship with the activities of his wife, Begoña Gómez."The press is a central element of democracy. There is a Penal Code to deal with defamation, there is no need for more," said the former socialist leader, for whom Sánchez's argument that he It is up to the Government to assume the reform of the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ).In this sense, he has criticized the "persecution of the judicial system at a time when the pillars of Spanish democracy are shaking due to the events of 2017" in Catalonia by the President of the Government.On the other hand, Guerra has lamented that the PSOE is "in decline" and that it is "another party" compared to the one that existed when he was deputy secretary general. Before ending the interview, the former vice president showed the journalist a copy of the Constitution that he had with him: "It is a shame that there are now politicians who have not read it." "It represents the conquest of the two Spains, it unites us," he emphasizes.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA["The Government of the Generalitat of Catalonia will decide from Catalonia" BARCELONA, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The PSC candidate for the Catalan elections, Salvador Illa, has stated that he will not agree with Junts after the elections: "It is obvious. They exclude themselves, because their logic is the logic of the lost decade and my logic is that of a Government strong. They are incompatible logics."They bet on the blockade. Puigdemont is blocked and it's a lost decade," he said at the conference 'Unir i servir'. Proposals for the third great transformation of Catalonia' organized this Friday by the Barcelona Economic Society of Friends of the Country.Illa has maintained that there could be two surprises in the 12M: the one he would like, which is a majority and enough strength to be able to govern, and the other is "that the Catalan Vox, (Ílvia) Orriols, enters the Parliament and a part of the independence movement towards a worrying drift".Asked if he sees himself becoming president of any of the pro-independence candidates, in reference to Pere Aragonès (ERC) and Carles Puigdemont (Junts), he stated that "frankly, no."In addition, he assured that he will not be asked from Madrid to invest in Aragonès or Puigdemont, and concluded: "The Government of the Generalitat of Catalonia will decide from Catalonia".]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[VALENCIA, May 3.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[VALENCIA, May 3. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Official Gazette of the Generalitat Valenciana (DOGV) has published a resolution from the Department of Innovation, Industry, Commerce and Tourism, directed by Nuria Montes, calling for aid, worth 4 million, directed to the local administration with the objective of supporting the development of innovation projects in the municipalities of the Valencian Community.The maximum global budget for this public call, which is part of the Territoris Innovadors program, reaches four million euros, which represents an increase of 14.28% compared to last year. The deadline for submitting applications ends on May 23, with the limitation of one request per city council, the regional administration highlights in a statement.The new call is structured around two lines of subsidy that finance both high-impact R&D initiatives and pilot projects promoted by local entities and their public sector. In both cases, the distribution of funds is modulated by sections depending on the population, in order to guarantee access to both large cities and smaller municipalities.The lines reserved for these localities and those of medium size are those that concentrate the bulk of the budget to provide greater support for their initiatives. In fact, the intensity of aid for municipalities with less than 50,000 inhabitants ranges between 75 and 95% of eligible expenses, while the contribution to large cities may not exceed half of said costs.By volume of aid, the program to support the execution of innovation projects with high innovative impact in municipalities accounts for around 68% of the total funds.The 2.7 million euros with which it has been allocated will support initiatives with an innovative technological component, which generate significant and lasting benefits for all citizens and which aim to improve the quality of life of society and the environment.The remaining 1.3 million will be used to promote the implementation of R&D pilot projects in municipalities in order to test on a small scale new solutions that contribute to solving or satisfying a need that affects citizens, whether it is a service public offered by the administration or identifying business opportunities.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -CaixaBank has carried out 85.33% of its share repurchase in the seven weeks since this program began on March 14, the total amount of which amounts to 500 million euros, as reported this Friday by the entity to the National Commission of the Stock Market (CNMV).Specifically, in the seventh week of the program, the bank has acquired more than 10.2 million securities at an average price of 5.04 euros and a total amount of 51.7 million euros.

<description><![CDATA[MADRID, 3 May.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -HSBC considers that the cost synergies of 850 million proposed by BBVA in its offer to merge with Banco Sabadell are "aggressive", given the size of the group and the fact that it aspires to maintain a dual operating structure, with two headquarters in the country. .In a note to clients and investors, HSBC considers that the logic behind a merger is "incontestable", given that the agreement will allow BBVA to strengthen its presence in Spain and rebalance the geographical 'mix' with more developed countries. "The accounts, however, seem a bit challenging," he warned.The bank considers that the cost synergies mentioned by BBVA are "aggressive", since they represent 39% of Banco Sabadell's cost base.The British bank estimates that the agreement will be positive for earnings per share of around 3% by 2026, assuming that cost synergies are achieved by that year. HSBC's estimates are somewhat more conservative than those of BBVA, which predicts that it will boost earnings per share by 3.5%.In any case, HSBC warns that BBVA does not mention the possibility of negative income synergies, something that HSBC considers "possible" in this case. The bank also considers the impact on capital for BBVA to be very optimistic, which will only be a multiple of 1.7 times the total restructuring costs (1,450 million), despite the fact that in previous mergers this multiple has been around 2 times.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Alert about the large amount of public debt that, if not reduced, will make it impossible to comply with the new fiscal rulesMADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The General Council of Economists (CGE) has maintained its forecast for the growth of the Spanish Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at 1.9%, although this estimate has "an upward bias", given the good prospects for the next two quarters .Economists base this forecast on the good expectations of commercial activity in Spain, with the great contribution of the services sector to the economy, predict good performance in the next two quarters, now that the tourist season begins and having dissipated, at least in part, the uncertainty generated in the sector by the drought of recent months.On the other hand, the expectation of a drop in interest rates in the month of June, of at least 25 percentage points, means that growth expectations are higher at the expense of inflation being affected.Regarding prices, and given the good evolution of the inflation rate, the Financial Observatory of the General Council of Economists has also maintained its forecast for the average CPI at the end of the year at 3%, while leaving the unemployment at 11.5%.At the fiscal level, economists have maintained their forecast for the public deficit at 3.4%, four tenths above the Executive's estimate (3%), while they have left the debt-to-GDP ratio at 106.6%.Economists have warned about the high figure in absolute value of the debt, especially due to its cost now that interest rates have risen considerably. "We understand that, if this figure is not reduced, it will be impossible for our country to comply with the new fiscal rules of the European Union that came into force on April 30," they warned in the report.For its part, the Council has indicated in its 'Financial Observatory' that one of the biggest problems facing society is housing, both owned and rented. According to the Bank of Spain, there is a deficit of around 600,000 homes between 2022 and 2025, according to the crossing of supply and demand data.Although it is planned to eliminate the so-called 'Golden Visa' to put restrictions on the purchase of homes by foreigners, arguing that this will solve the increase in home prices, in the opinion of economists the real problem is in the residential market, not in the luxury segment.Therefore, they consider that this restriction of the 'Golden Visa' would not significantly impact a generalized drop in housing prices. "To this we must add that in competing countries in our environment they continue to be maintained, such as Portugal, which, after their elimination, has reinstated them with certain modifications," the economists have pointed out.Regarding the 'Next Generation EU' European funds, according to the Government, 69,528 million euros have been allocated, of which 35,191 million have been resolved, with a call resolution rate of 56.4%.Given that the deadline to implement the aid ends, with some exceptions, in June 2026, the General Council of Economists has warned that there is a risk that part of it will be lost. "Tackling this problem should be a priority, given the weight that this aid can have for our economy," they insisted.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[(Information sent by the signatory company)The debtor applied for loans due to health problems for herself and her family, but was left unemployedGetafe (Madrid), May 3, 2024.- Repara tu Deuda, a leading law firm in Spain in the Second Chance Law, has achieved another debt cancellation through the Second Chance Law. This is the case of a woman, a resident of Getafe (Madrid), to whom the Commercial Court No. 16 of Madrid has granted Exoneration of Unsatisfied Liabilities, freeing the bankrupt from a debt that amounted to 51,000 euros. Repara tu Debta lawyers explain the story: "the debtor requested loans due to health problems, both her own and those of close relatives. At first she was able to pay them without any special difficulties. However, when she lost her job, the situation became complicated. and had no choice but to take advantage of the second chance mechanism. The Second Chance Law came into force in Spain in 2015. The objective was for individuals and the self-employed to be able to cancel debts and, in this way, reactivate themselves in the economy. As the years go by, more and more people know this tool and decide to start the process. The dissemination of the cases has also helped make this possible.Repara tu Deuda Abogados is the law firm specialized in the Second Chance Law that has handled the most cases in Spain since its origins in September 2015. To date , has already managed to far exceed the figure of 200 million euros exonerated. The people who have taken advantage of the Second Chance Law belong to the different autonomous communities of Spain. In addition, they respond to diverse profiles, which means that anyone with debt problems can be free of owed payments. "We have made large investments to publicize the Second Chance Law throughout the country and we consider that the human factor is an essential part of our task," the lawyers explain. The Second Chance Law allows the cancellation of debt both of individuals and self-employed workers. For this to be possible, it is necessary that the bankrupt be in a current or imminent state of insolvency, that he has not been convicted of socioeconomic crimes in the last ten years and that he acts at all times in good faith. The office can also analyze contracts signed with banks and financial entities. In this sense, the objective is to check if there are abusive clauses for the cancellation of credit cards, revolving cards, mini-credits, loans and mortgages and to be able to claim from Cofidis, Moneyman, WiZink, Carrefour, Vivus, Banco Santander, CaixaBank, BBVA, Banco Sabadell, myKredit, Kviku, etc.Contact Contact name: David Guerrero Contact description: Press officer Contact telephone number: 655956735]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Aragonès and Estrada will agree based on content and Albiach rules out agreeing with the rightBARCELONA, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The PSC candidate to preside over the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, has defended forming a "transversal" Government after the May 12 elections, while the number 3 of Junts, Josep Rull, has ruled out agreeing with the socialists and making Illa president .In the RTVE debate for the Catalan elections this Thursday, the president of the Generalitat and ERC candidate for re-election, Pere Aragonès, has assured that he will agree based on content, like the CUP candidate, Laia Estrada, and that of the Comuns, Jéssica Albiach, has ruled out pacts with the right.For his part, the PP candidate, Alejandro Fernández, has maintained that they will not speak "with anyone who intends to continue breaking the constitutional pact", while the Vox candidate, Ignacio Garriga, has criticized the fact that there is an "anti-fascist pact" against his formation, and Cs has accused PSOE and PP of agreeing with the independence movement.Illa has maintained that he will present his candidacy for the investiture and has asked the rest of the forces if they will block it, has advocated making pacts that generate stability, and has accused the PP of having "hidden meetings with Junts" after the general elections.The number 3 of Junts has refused to agree with the PSC and invest Illa, since it assures that its formation cannot "turn the page on 1-O", and has assured that the two options that will exist after 12M will be a Government of Illa or one of Puigdemont, since he considers that they are two antagonistic models, in his words.Aragonès has assured that they will agree on the basis of an agreed referendum, unique financing and an improvement in the well-being and protection of the language, and has added that the position of the PSC in these areas is "evident", after which he has asked Junts and the CUP do not separate independence and social justice.The 'cupaire' candidate has maintained that they will reach agreements based on what they want to do, and has urged Aragonès to say whether he will not agree with Illa, and has asked Rull how he is going to promote self-determination "if he shares the economic model of the employers".Albiach has accused Illa of doing "pirouettes" to avoid saying whether or not he will agree with Junts, and has added that agreeing with Puigdemont's team means agreeing "with the great champions of cuts to public services."The popular candidate has accused Illa of having a relationship of "pure genuflection" with the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and has assured that in his party people can disagree in public, after which he has refused to agree with those who break with the constitutional pact, as the PSC and the independentistas claim to have done.From Vox, Garriga has regretted that the pacts between PSC and the independentists have "condemned Catalonia to insecurity", and has criticized that Congress has approved the regularization of immigrants through a Popular Legislative Initiative (ILP).Finally, Carrizosa has refused to make an agreement with Illa, because "he says that those who have stolen have not stolen", in reference to the independentists, and has accused PP and PSOE of not having signed a commitment promoted by Cs not to make an agreement with the independentists.In the golden minute at the end of the debate, Illa has confronted two possible models, one for "more of the same", and another for moving forward, while Aragonès has emerged as a defender of the improvement of public services, and Rull has appealed to the voters of October 1, 2017 to govern, he says, with the aspiration of Catalans to prosper.For his part, Ignacio Garriga has promised to tackle insecurity and reduce taxes, Laia Estrada has addressed the voter who wants to reinforce public networks in education, health and residences, while Jéssica Albiach has asked for a change for a strong, stable and left-wing with "clear priorities."Finally, Carlos Carrizosa has assured that Cs is the party that "will never betray" its voters in the face of its refusal to agree with pro-independence parties, and Alejandro Fernández, from the PP, has defended opening a new stage to reinforce Catalonia's leadership in the face of the decline, he says, of the independence process.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Responds to the Government's complaint by warning of the danger of making invisible the violations committed during the Franco regime.MADRID, 3 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The UN has urged the Government of Spain to "take the necessary measures" to preserve historical memory in the face of the concord laws passed by PP and Vox in Aragón, the Valencian Community and Castilla y León, claiming that they can "make invisible" the " serious violations of Human Rights" committed during the "Franco dictatorial regime."This is what three United Nations rapporteurs have expressed in a report in which they responded to the complaint presented by the Government against the so-called "concord laws" that have been processed in three of the territories where PP and Vox govern in coalition. The central Executive raised the issue with the UN, considering that these regulations are "contrary" to the values included in the Democratic Memory Law approved last legislature."The so-called 'concord' laws approved or presented for parliamentary approval in the autonomous communities of Aragón, Castilla y León, and Valencia, could affect the obligation of the Spanish State, including its powers and national or local entities, in matters of Human Rights. Human Rights, in particular the obligation to guarantee the preservation of the historical memory of serious violations of Human Rights," reads the UN document.After analyzing the projects promoted by PP and Vox in these autonomous communities, the three rapporteurs have urged the Government of Pedro Sánchez to adopt "all necessary measures" to guarantee "strict respect for international standards of Human Rights in matters preservation of historical memory of "serious human rights violations."As they explain, these laws "order the suppression of multiple entities, projects, websites and activities of historical memory" and can "lead to limits on access to the truth" about the fate or whereabouts of "the victims of serious human rights violations." and they can also "make invisible the serious violations of Human Rights committed during the Franco dictatorial regime, or fail to name or condemn said regime."They also point to the importance of not discriminating between types of victims when recognizing and giving justice and reparation to them, although they point out that the laws of harmony could lead to assimilating the violations committed during the Franco dictatorship and the civil war " to a heterogeneous group of crimes or violations committed by different actors, state and non-state, throughout the 20th century in Spain", thus removing recognition from "the hundreds of thousands" of people killed in extrajudicial executions and forced disappearances committed during the regime of Francisco Franco.For this reason, they have recalled that it is the duty of "all powers of the State", including the executive, legislative and judicial, as well as "all government entities" at the national, regional or local level, "to comply with the obligation to protect human rights, including the obligation to guarantee the historical preservation of the memory of serious human rights violations.""We also reiterate that these measures must be aimed at preserving collective memory from oblivion and, in particular, preventing revisionist and denialist theses from arising. These laws, (proposed or approved) would hinder the right to know the truth and the right to freedom of association," the report states.The signatories of the documents are the special rapporteur on the promotion of truth, justice, reparation and guarantees of non-repetition, Fabian Salvioli; the president of the Working Group on Forced or Involuntary Disappearances, Aua Baldé; and the special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, Morris Tidball-Binz.With this report, the United Nations responds to the complaint presented by the Government against the concord laws approved by PP and Vox in Aragón and that are being processed in Castilla y León and the Valencian Community.]]></content:encoded>

In Italy, artistic cities have increased from 6 to 12% due to the large number of international tourists."SUMMER TRENDS: A THOUSAND FLAVORS UNDER THE SUNBy summer 2024, Italian gelato master Giancarlo Timballo, president of the Ice Cream World Cup, will create new flavors based on local traditions and working with local products.

The "surprise", however, is the return of the tiramisu flavor, which is increasingly in demand, especially among foreign tourists.Marco Miquel Sirvent, president of the National Association of Artisan Ice Cream Makers of Spain, highlights the health aspect with a tendency to purchase low-sugar ice creams (although nougat, vanilla and chocolate continue to persist). Forecasts for the summer of 2024 are optimistic with an increase in consumption of 3-5%.German consumers are torn between the great classics and curiosity for new ideas, as explains Dario Fontanella, founder of a well-known ice cream parlor in Mannheim, Germany, which, by the summer of 2024, will offer white chocolate ice cream with asparagus, typical of the Baden-Württemberg region.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -AstraZeneca has admitted for the first time that its Covid 19 vaccine can cause side effects such as thrombosis in "very rare cases", in a legal document presented to the UK High Court in February, according to The Telegraph newspaper.This statement by the pharmaceutical company occurs within the framework of a judicial process by the English Supreme Court, which has an open class action lawsuit in which 51 cases of victims and relatives claim up to 100 million pounds from AstraZeneca for damages and prejudices for the side effects of the vaccine.One of the effects is thrombosis syndrome with thrombocytopenia, which is a clot in the blood vessels of the brain, legs or elsewhere in the body.AstraZeneca now rejects the claims contained in the complaints but accepts, however, that its doses "may, in very rare cases, cause thrombosis." Specifically, the complainants' lawyers argue that the vaccine, developed together with the University of Oxford, "has had a devastating effect on a small number of families."One of the first cases to be prosecuted was that of Jaime Scott, who has been left with a permanent brain injury after suffering a clot and hemorrhage in the brain that prevented him from working after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine in April 2021.In May 2023, AstraZeneca, also through a judicial response, responded that it did not accept the thesis that Scott's case had been caused by its vaccine.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The PP has signed the economist Fernando Navarrete, until now director of the cabinet of the governor of the Bank of Spain, Pablo Hernández de Cos, for its lists for the European Parliament elections to be held on June 9, according to 'El Confidencial'. ' and confirmed by Europa Press in PP sources.Navarrete, who resigned from his position this week, had held this position since September 2018, coinciding with the arrival of Hernández de Cos to the Bank of Spain. Graduated in Economics from the Complutense University, with an extraordinary award, he has held different positions in Public Administration, mainly during the PP governments.Specifically, he was in charge of the General Secretariat of the Treasury (from April 2018 to June 2018) under the mandate of Román Escolano at the head of the Ministry of Economy, in the last Government of Mariano Rajoy, and previously he was responsible for finance of the Official Credit Institute (2012-2018) and director for five years (2007-2012) of the Economics area of the Faes foundation, chaired by the former president of the Government José María Aznar.Navarrete is also a qualified economist from the Bank of Spain on leave and has completed postgraduate studies in Economics and Finance from the Center for Monetary and Financial Studies (Cemfi) and in Security and Defense from the UCM-Superior Center for National Defense Studies ( Ceseden), while he has completed the Public Management Leadership Program at IESE.Navarrete's departure from the Bank of Spain occurs just two months before the non-extendable mandate of Hernández de Cos at the head of the monetary authority ends, which will force the Government to choose a replacement.In his profile on the social network Linkedin, the new signing of the PP assures that "shock after shock and crisis after crisis", he has come to the conclusion that it is essential to expand the understanding of economic and social dynamics to achieve political objectives "even more ambitious", but now in a "more resilient and sustainable" way.The signing of Navarrete is known one day after the PP confirmed that the former general secretary of Ciudadanos Adrián Vázquez will attend the next European elections on June 9 on the Popular Party list, of which two other orange MEPs will also be part Susana Solís and Eva Poptcheva.Vázquez and Solís will be in starting positions, accompanying Dolors Montserrat within the top 20 places on the list, while Poptcheva will appear in the next section of the candidacy.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Los Angeles Police have begun to dismantle the pro-Palestinian camp set up at the University of California (UCLA) this Thursday morning, a day after the violent incidents registered in the area after the emergence of counterprotesters who defended the policies of the Government of Israel .The university, which has recommended avoiding the campus and has limited in-person activity until Friday, had declared the camp illegal, but hundreds of people have remained in the area. After several hours of apparent waiting, the agents have begun to dismantle the barricades erected to try to protect the stores, which has left scenes of confrontation.UCLA has released a notice to announce the start of this police intervention and warn those still in the camp that they may be committing a crime. He has warned students that they risk "disciplinary measures", including expulsion from the university.Security forces have arrested several protesters, according to CNN and NBC News, which did not provide figures. In other similar contexts, such as the eviction of Columbia University in New York, this type of intervention has resulted in dozens of arrests.]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[PALMA, 2 May.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[PALMA, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -A Palma Court has agreed to initiate preliminary proceedings for the PSIB's complaint against the current director of the Balearic Islands Health Service (IbSalut), Javier Ureña, for waiving the claim against the company in the Koldo case.In an order to which Europa Press has had access, Judge Antonio Garcías initiates preliminary proceedings for the complaint filed by the socialist party for possible crimes of administrative prevarication, embezzlement of public funds and influence peddling.The complaint is also directed against the company Soluciones de Gestión y Apoyo Empresarial SL and its administrator, Íñigo Rotaeche, investigated by the National Court in the Koldo case. The judge transfers the proceedings to the Prosecutor's Office for a ruling, as 'ÚItima hora' had anticipated.The PSIB accuses Ureña of constructing, with the knowledge of the president of the Government, Marga Prohens, and the rest of the regional Executive, a file to hide the expiration of the claim to the company for the quality of the masks.The PSIB complaint attributes Ureña to having deliberately allowed the expiration of the file "for the clear benefit of the company and its participants", urging a new annulment file "as a smokescreen."The PSIB brief includes wiretapping of those investigated in the Koldo case, where the alleged mastermind of the plot, Carlos Cueto, informed Rotaeche that the Balearic Islands "were not going to continue with the claim for the masks." The AN's investigations point to alleged maneuvers by Koldo to do so.The expiration of the file has become the main battlehorse between PP and PSIB in the Islands. The resolution notifying the claim to the company gives a period of three months and that is what those investigated cling to in their conversations when they talk about the Community not going to continue with the claim.The current IbSalut team, for its part, assures that according to the regulations the deadline would be eight months and that therefore it would still be within the deadline, attributing the reference to three months to a material "error." In any case, the administration failed to respond to the allegations presented by the company in November.The case came to light in February with the arrest of José Luis Ábalos' former advisor, and in March IbSalut withdrew that claim because it considered it unviable due to a document from the previous team that endorsed the quality of the shipment. At the same time, a new file was initiated to declare the contract void from its origin and claim the total amount, 3.7 million euros. The company has presented allegations, as confirmed by Ibsalut sources.]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, warned this Thursday the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, that if he uses the "little theater" on regeneration that, in his opinion, he has launched as a result of his reflection of the week last, to "break" the negotiation that is open with the 'popular' to renew the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ) will have to give explanations to the European Commission.Feijóo issued this warning in an interview given to the newspaper ABC, collected by Europa Press, in which he also blames the head of the Executive for having "used" his wife, Begoña Gómez. "He is the mud," he says.The head of the PP recalls that his party has been "several months talking and looking for solutions" with the Government for the renewal of the CGPJ and with the mediation of the Justice Commissioners of the European Union, first Didier Reynders and then Vera Jourová."They are witnesses of the progress, of the issues on which there may already be some principle of agreement and of those that remain to be agreed upon. Therefore, if this little theater also wants to use it to break the negotiations and the progress that we have before us the European Union, will have to explain it, not only to the Spanish, but also to the European Commission itself," warns Feijóo.In this sense, the leader of the PP emphasizes that the two commissioners are "witnesses" that his party has "every interest in deepening the independence of the Judiciary."On the other hand, Feijóo emphasizes that he has been the object of constant insults for "quite a long time" from not only Sánchez but also the entire "department of ministers" and denounces that the president "lives off confrontation, tension, polarization." for a long time.But, in his opinion, after "losing" the general elections he has tried to "break the principle of equality" with the Amnesty Law and now "he is going for the freedom of the Spanish people", saying "be careful with what is written, be careful with the media and journalists, be careful with what is investigated and that the judges and courts be careful."Asked if Begoña Gómez is "the main victim of Pedro Sánchez's letter", Feijóo assures that he would "never" subject his family "to the public ridicule" to which, in his opinion, Sánchez has subjected his family."Thanks to Mr. Sánchez's letter, his partner appears on all the covers of the European press," added Feijóo, before emphasizing that the 'popular' have "nothing" against Gómez."What concerns us is what Mr. Sánchez has allowed in the economic, commercial or business practices of his partner. We have every right and duty to know whether in the allocation of public funds, in the rescues of companies or in the of contracts, some interest on the part of Mr. Sánchez's partner could have had something to do with it"."But that," he points out, "does not mean having a problem with your partner, no. What it means is controlling exactly what Mr. Sánchez has done."Finally, regarding the European elections, Feijóo commented that citizens will have to choose between "maintaining the principles of equality before the law, public freedoms, that judges and courts continue to have independence in their actions and that journalists and media maintain freedom of expression" or "the denial of all those rights, which is what Sánchez represents."]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Send a letter to the militancy to celebrate the 145th anniversary of the party and emphasize that "no generation of socialists had it easy"MADRID, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The President of the Government and Secretary General of the PSOE, Pedro Sánchez, launched a letter this Thursday to the party's militancy, on the occasion of the 145th anniversary of its foundation, in which he presents the PSOE as "the systemic party" of Spanish democracy. , remembers that "no generation of socialists had it easy" and calls for working in unity for "clean politics."In his letter, Sánchez recalls that the 25 founders of the PSOE, with Pablo Iglesias at the head, had the courage to meet, "in full prohibition of meetings and political association of workers" in a Casa Labra, an "inn" located " precisely a few meters from the then Ministry of the Interior.""They were so visionary as to create a party that, almost a century and a half later, continues to lead the expansion of rights and freedoms, progress and social justice. The courage and lucidity of those comrades are values that continue to inspire today the political action of the women and men of the PSOE of the present," emphasizes the president.In this context, he emphasizes that "no generation of socialists had it easy" because theirs is "a struggle that is structurally asymmetrical" and they always choose to take "the side of those who do not have" or "cannot.""We chose the side of the common people against the powerful; not once, but always. And, despite this, if we have been able to improve people's lives and change the history of Spain it is because, in these 145 years, we have each other," Sánchez asserts, emphasizing that "when things get difficult" the "most valuable" and the "main asset" of the party is "the solidarity of our colleagues." ."That is why we socialists, who defend diversity and plurality as inalienable values, in difficult times unite even more strongly if possible," he points out, before thanking the support that "thousands of socialists and progressives" have given him during the years. last days."There are debts that, although we will never be able to pay, we must recognize. And I, as your general secretary, have an immense debt of gratitude to all those people, to all of you. I have felt the personal affection, the concern for my family and for me. It is precisely this concern for people that is the ultimate driving force of our political cause," he explains.After indicating that "socialism is humanism", Sánchez says he is aware that it is not support for himself that "unites" the militants, but rather "support for a cause", that of freedom and democracy."Millions of people have understood that what is at stake - and not only in Spain - is democracy as a form of coexistence in freedom. Our democracy, like those of the rest of the world, faces the advance of a far-right international that tries to impose their regressive agenda. Not through the debate of ideas and the contrast of proposals, but through the destruction of the adversary," he reiterates.At this point, he once again explains how the so-called "mud machine" works. A strategy, in his opinion, "encouraged by the right and the far-right, along with far-right websites and associations that create hoaxes and lies." "Hoaxes that are then spread in gatherings and on the platforms to later prosecute false complaints, seriously deteriorating our democracy and our coexistence," he warns.Sánchez adds that in these days it has become clear that "defending democracy does not only consist of going to vote every four years", but that it must be defended "every day, rejecting those who turn politics into a quagmire of insults and falsehoods." "."Today, on the 145th anniversary of our organization, let us demand clean politics. The politics of respect and dignity; that of the debate of ideas based on facts and not on hoaxes," emphasizes the President of the Government.In his opinion, the "thousands" of people who gathered last Saturday at the gates of Ferraz, and the "hundreds of thousands" who showed their support in letters, through networks and in people's homes throughout Spain, have sent "a powerful message of courage and lucidity to our society: that we are not willing to watch impassively the deterioration and degradation of our democracy.""They have also sent another message: the PSOE is the systemic party of democracy and the Spanish Constitution. The stronger the democracy, the stronger the PSOE and the greater its transformative capacity," emphasizes Sánchez, who points out as the task of the current "generation" of socialists "contribute to the strengthening" of democracy."In the last week we have seen how many people have mobilized in favor of the cause of democracy. That is the cause that has united them and that predicts a long life for the PSOE. Happy anniversary, PSOE!", the letter concludes. .]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[VALENCIA, May 2. (EUROPA PRESS) -Optimizing the ventilation of the homes of the vulnerable population to reduce energy expenditure and improve their health is the winning idea of the hackathon organized by the European project WellBased, led by the Valencia City Council and coordinated by Las Naves.For two days, students from various engineering schools at the Polytechnic University of Valencia have worked on this competition that aims to "contribute innovative ideas to combat the impact of high temperatures in homes that suffer from energy poverty", as reported by the council. it's a statement.The call was held in collaboration with the Fundación València Clima i Energia, the Chair of Urban Energy Transition and the Interuniversity Chair of the Valencian Public System of Social Services.The winning idea is based on the launch of an application that collects information extracted from sensors located in homes, "which transmit to us the need to open or close windows to maintain a more comfortable temperature." The European WellBased project is part of the innovation strategy of the Valencia City Council, Valencia Innovation Capital, and is also fully aligned with the European Green Capital.The Councilor for Innovation, Paula Llobet, has pointed out that this competition "appeals directly to the youngest, inviting them to be participants and active agents in the most innovative projects developed by the city. We need their ideas, their freshness. They are necessary to walk towards the future and think about a city where we can face problems such as this, energy efficiency and sustainability.The hackathon, in which up to 10 teams have participated, has also awarded second prizes to two other solutions: one that has a greater impact on people's health that develops a green climate, care and coexistence shelter, located on a pilot basis in the Natzaret neighborhood; and another proposal "with a greater degree of sustainability and positive impact" on the environment, which is based on the recycling of thermal blankets used in marathons. The idea is to use it as a cover for blinds, preventing heat and promoting the comfort of homes.The competition has shown the students' ability to come up with innovative solutions. Proposals stand out such as a cooling pump with a solar panel that solves the problem of pollution from air conditioners, humidity or temperature measurement equipment, applications that identify the most economical energy rates or energy consumption or ideas for climate shelters powered by panels. solar and energy communities.The European WellBased project aims to design, implement and evaluate a pilot plan to reduce energy poverty and its impacts on the health and well-being of the vulnerable population. The initiative is carried out in six pilots in various cities in Spain, Hungary, Holland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and Latvia.Valencia is the city that leads this European initiative and Las Naves is the coordinating entity. The Valencia Climate and Energy Foundation is coordinating the pilot, which is taking place in areas of Algirós, Camins al Grau, Poblats Marítims, Benimaclet, Orriols, Torrefiel, Benicalap and Patraix. The pilot in Valencia is carried out in 260 homes located in eight neighborhoods and a total of 354 people participate.Among the actions that have been carried out is monitoring the comfort and well-being of homes through technology -installation of sensors-, carrying out energy audits aimed at improving energy efficiency, as well as the creation of the School for the Right to Energy, where community interventions, training activities, awareness-raising, and even personalized attention to the population and health support have been carried out to address the psychological consequences of energy vulnerability.]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 2 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Foundation for Applied Economics Studies (Fedea) published this Thursday a study on the financial situation of the contributory component of public pensions in 2023, in which it estimates that these pensions presented a deficit of almost 56 billion euros last year, 3.8% of GDP.Specifically, it estimates that the contributory component of the public pension system, defined as the sum of Social Security and passive classes, would have had a deficit in 2023 equivalent to 3.8 points of GDP (-55,919 million euros) if only would have the ordinary net income from social contributions.To address this difference between income and expenses, the public pension system made available in 2023 State transfers worth 3.1 points of GDP, about 44,148.12 million euros, with an increase of 1.8 points of GDP since 2018, and a State loan worth 0.7 points of GDP, that is, 10,003 million euros.Fedea points out that these transfers reduced the resources available to cover other "important public needs", and adds that the financial situation of this component of the pension system, whose spending absorbs 13.1% of GDP and almost 30% of total public spending , is the subject of "continuous debate" in society.The Social Security System, which includes the pensions managed by this institution, ended 2023 with a deficit very similar to that of the previous year, 0.6% of GDP. This percentage increases by two tenths, up to 0.8% of GDP, if contributions destined to the Intergenerational Equity Mechanism (MEI) are excluded from current income, as it is an income not available to pay current pensions since it is enters a reserve fund that will only be available from 2032.Additionally, Social Security has made available two specific transfers from the State worth 27,231 million euros (1.9% of GDP), one for the payment of supplements for pension minimums (7,345 million euros), and the second, much higher in amount, destined to pay the so-called "improper expenses" (19,886 million euros).Excluding these transfers, and focusing only on the contributory balance of the Social Security system, this would be around 2.7% of GDP. To this we would have to add, finally, another 1.2 points of GDP in State transfers for the payment of pensions for passive classes to reach a contributory deficit of 3.8 points of GDP, which must be financed with debt and with general taxes.]]></content:encoded>

<title><![CDATA[COMUNICADO: Energy Transitions Commission (ETC) Urges Government and Industry Collaboration to Overcome Perceptions of Offshore Wind]]></title>
<link>https://www.bcointalk.com/bitcoin/comunicado-energy-transitions-commission-etc-urges-government-and-industry-h40305.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[(Information sent by the signatory company).]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[(Information sent by the signatory company)LONDON, May 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The latest insights briefing from the Energy Transitions Commission, Overcoming Turbulence in the Offshore Wind Sector, highlights the need for governments and the offshore wind industry to join forces to restore confidence in the market, drive down costs and accelerate the clean energy transition. The ETC's membership includes offshore wind industry players: bp, Iberdrola, Octopus Energy, Petronas, Shell, SSE, and Vattenfall.Offshore wind is already delivering large-scale clean electricity at a competitive cost around the world. In Western Europe, costs fell 60% between 2015-2022. Installations are growing rapidly. From 2015 to 2023, global capacity has expanded sixfold from 12 to 74 GW, already producing energy for around 90 million households, and with vast potential to scale further.But in 2022-2023, inflation, supply chain bottlenecks, and higher interest rates led to rising offshore wind costs in some markets. A perceived offshore wind "crisis" ensued, in the UK and US markets in particular, as many projects and contracts were cancelled.While increases were significant, they're mostly expected to be short-term. Costs in Western markets are already coming back down as most drivers were temporary in nature (e.g., supply chain bottlenecks due to COVID, a 200% increase in steel costs), although the increase in cost of finance may remain over the medium term. Meanwhile, technological progress and large-scale production drove consistent cost reductions in China over the same period, illustrating that offshore wind can be even cheaper and more competitive in the future."Offshore wind is vital for the clean energy transition. It can generate electricity when the sun isn't shining and doesn't compete for land use. Now is a critical period to rapidly accelerate wind capacity if the world is to achieve net-zero emissions by mid-century. Governments should act now to restore market confidence by setting ambitious offshore wind targets and design auctions and contracts which provide market certainty and drive costs down." – Adair Turner, Chair, Energy Transitions CommissionEstimates from the International Energy Agency (IEA) suggest that offshore wind has the potential to generate more than 420,000 TWh per year worldwide, equivalent to 14 times today's global electricity generation. To achieve a net-zero economy built on clean electricity, annual wind generation needs to grow tenfold from 2,000 TWh in 2022 to over 20,000 TWh by 2050. This will be complemented by a thirtyfold growth of solar capacity from 1,000 TWh in 2022 to ~30,000 TWh by 2050.However, most countries are not on track to install sufficient offshore wind capacity by 2030 to align with a net-zero emission trajectory."The energy system of the future will depend on clean, secure and cost-competitive electricity and this report shows the critical role offshore wind has to play. But to fully realise the technology's potential, policymakers, system operators, regulators and the industry need to re-focus on scaling up the sector's capacity. Those that move fastest will unlock significant and lasting economic benefits."– Alistair Phillips-Davies, CEO, SSEGovernment and industry collaboration can relaunch confidence and drive costs downGovernments and industry must closely collaborate to relaunch confidence in offshore wind markets and bring down costs. To be on track to install the capacity required for the transition to clean electricity, the ETC recommends governments should:"This briefing from ETC reinforces the reality that, despite blips in the UK and US last year, the offshore wind industry is on a fundamental global growth trajectory. As the briefing notes, offshore wind has seen huge cost reductions and is cost competitive with gas power. It's no wonder that governments in every continent are recognising the increasing role that offshore wind plays in keeping the lights on, and providing large scale, cost competitive energy."– Rebecca Williams, Chief Strategy Officer - Offshore Wind, GWEC"Offshore wind power is a key technology in the energy transition. Around the world we see governments and policymakers keen to add offshore capacity to help them on their decarbonisation journeys. This is because the offshore wind sector is creating industrial growth opportunities, and supporting jobs, while contributing to the energy security and reducing emissions in the energy system."– Agustín Delgado, Chief Innovation and Sustainability Officer, IberdrolaOvercoming Turbulence in the Offshore Wind Sector has been developed in collaboration with ETC members from across industry, financial institutions, and environmental advocacy. The ETC is a global coalition of leaders from across the energy landscape committed to achieving net-zero emissions by mid-century whose members include Arup, bp, HSBC, Iberdrola, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Petronas, Shell, SSE, Rabobank, Vattenfall, We Mean Business, and World Resources Institute.This report was developed in consultation with ETC Members, but it should not be taken as members agreeing with every finding or recommendation.To access the report, please visit: https://www.energy-transitions.org/publications/overcoming-turbulence-in-the-offshore-wind-sector/.Notes to editors:For further information on the ETC, please visit: https://www.energy-transitions.org.Logo: https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1935158...View original content: https://www.prnewswire.co.uk/news-releases/energy-transitions-commission-etc-urges-government-and-industry-collaboration-to-overcome-perceptions-of-offshore-wind-energy-in-crisis-302133632.html]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[MADRID, 1 May.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[MADRID, 1 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The general secretaries of UGT, Pepe Álvarez, and CCOO, Unai Sordo, have demanded this Wednesday a "decent democracy" during the May Day demonstration in Madrid and have pointed out the reduction of working hours and full employment as major demands .The May 1 mobilization in Madrid was attended by 10,000 people, according to the Government Delegation, and 120,000, according to union figures. Among those attending were the three vice presidents of the Government and up to six ministers, along with different socialist leaders.UGT and CCOO have come out this May 1st in Madrid in a mobilization under the motto 'For full employment: less working hours, better salaries', which has been accompanied by more than 70 mobilizations throughout Spain, in a day that It started a few minutes after 12:00 in the morning, from Gran Vía, and ended in Plaza España around 2:20 p.m., where Sordo and Álvarez presented their demands.For Álvarez, this May 1 is about showing that "it is worth it" and to ask in the streets for a "decent democracy", after the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, announced a five-day day of reflection a week ago. week to decide whether or not to continue in the Moncloa."A dirty war is never useful in democracy, it can never be exercised by the public powers. Therefore, this gesture, this stop, these five days of reflection by the president have to be for the entire country to demand in-depth changes. We want a decent democracy," Álvarez has claimed, while emphasizing that the streets throughout Spain have been filled this May 1st so that "the extreme right will rage."For his part, Sordo has stated that a "toxic debate" that threatens to confront society cannot be allowed and has asked to seek "mainstreaming", but not at the cost of not assuming "political legitimacy." "That is the underlying problem, that there are those here who have not assumed the legitimacy of the democratic results in Spain," he reiterated.In relation to full employment, Sordo has insisted that "it is possible" to achieve this full employment, but, to do so, he has indicated that wealth must be "redistributed.""There is money to boost investment. Companies in Spain complain what they complain, but they are recording the highest profits, the largest business surpluses in history. 20% of the most important companies in this country are in record profits and in record surpluses", he explained.For this reason, he has asked to use public resources for this productive investment, but with the guarantee of long-term investment by private companies. "It is no longer time for public-private collaboration, the kind that seeks to put in the profit and loss accounts of parasitic companies," he stressed.Likewise, Sordo and Álvarez have called for the reduction of the working day, which is being negotiated with the Government and the CEOE to bring it to 37.5 hours without salary reduction by 2025. However, Álvarez has pointed out that the 37 .5 hours are "the way" towards a 32-hour weekly work day."We want to work less to live better and if they get upset, worse for them," stressed Álvarez, who insisted that this reduction should be made above all for the most vulnerable workers, since, "where there are no unions, there has been no been able to reduce working time through collective agreements".For Sordo, the working day must be "at least" 37.5 hours, but the working conditions of the most vulnerable workers must also be improved, working time and its distribution must be controlled, because "the agreement establishes what you want to put in and in reality if it is not fulfilled, it is not worth much.Likewise, both union leaders have spoken out about the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary and have asked the Government and the parliamentary majority "to move forward" because "judges do not elect judges." "It is not a petanque club where the members of the petanque club elect the president and the manager among themselves," Álvarez explained.On the other hand, during the demonstration, the general secretaries of UGT Madrid, Marina Prieto, and CCOO Madrid, Paloma López, have accused the Madrid City Council, chaired by José Luis Almeida, of trying to "boycott" it by making the installation of everything they needed to develop concentration, which started a few minutes later than expected for this reason.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The double champion was defeated in the quarterfinals with the Russian's great comebackMADRID, 1 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz lost (4-6, 6-3, 6-2) this Wednesday against the Russian Andrey Rublev and was eliminated from the Mutua Madrid Open in the quarterfinal round, stopping the streak of 14 consecutive victories of the current double champion in the Caja Mágica.After losing the king of the land, Rafa Nadal, the night before, Manolo Santana, with the roof closed again, and the Spanish option in the fourth Masters 1000 of the season suffered the final blow. Alcaraz gave in to a very powerful Rublev in his punches and with his serve, capable of controlling his usual pace of revolutions to knock down the defending champion.The Murcian arrived in Madrid with physical doubts about his forearm, after an inactivity that came from Miami. After three victories these days in the Caja Mágica, especially Tuesday's in the reissue of the last final against the German Jan-Lennard Struff, Alcaraz had set his sights on the title, but Rublev was a cement wall despite to start from below.Within the tightness of the match, the Spaniard took advantage of a drop by the Russian with his serve to break in the fifth game of the first set. As he had wished in the previous round, Alcaraz took advantage of his opportunity when he presented himself and had a correct first set, winning the duel of intensity and rallies from the back of the court.All in all, Rublev was able to concede the blow and raise the level in the second set, one more step that the Spaniard did not have. Despite holding on in the sixth game, but without converting the break balls in the seventh, the Murcian did not avoid the tiebreaker. History repeated itself in the third act, with a much more forceful Rublev to take an early advantage and make his intentions clear.The world number eight's repertoire already seemed evident that it was not going to diminish, winning his serve with authority and adding another break for 5-1. He had no response either physically or in his game, an Alcaraz who saw his love affair with Madrid stopped after 14 consecutive victories, as well as the attempt to recover the best version of him, while the 'Top 3' in the world may fall.The Murcian, champion this year in Indian Wells, now has Rome and Roland Garros to prove that he has overcome the physical doubts, the setbacks that also take away his regularity, and can once again be fighting for the titles. Rublev, who had won a match since February until arriving in Madrid, achieved his best performance in the Caja Mágica to meet the American Taylor Fritz or the Argentine Francisco Cerúndolo in the semifinals.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The Israeli Foreign Minister affirms that Petro will be remembered in history "for siding with the most despicable monsters"MADRID, 1 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, has announced that the country will break diplomatic relations with Israel starting Thursday in retaliation for the Israeli Army's offensive against the Gaza Strip, where more than 34,500 Palestinians have already died."The President of the Republic informs that tomorrow diplomatic relations with the State of Israel will be broken for having a Government, for having a genocidal president (in reference to the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu)," he assured this Wednesday within the framework of a rally held in the Plaza de Bolívar, in Bogotá, on the occasion of Workers' Day.Petro has highlighted that "if Palestine dies, humanity dies." "Today, all of humanity, in the streets, by the millions, agrees with us," he highlighted, adding that "the times of genocide" cannot return, according to the Colombian Presidency.Shortly after, Israel's Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, stressed on the social network known for "burning babies, murdering children, raping women and kidnapping innocent civilians.""Relations between Israel and Colombia have always been warm; not even an anti-Semitic and hateful president will be able to change that. The State of Israel will continue to protect its citizens without fear," he stated.The Colombian president already threatened to sever diplomatic ties if Israel did not comply with the resolution approved by the UN Security Council that called for an "immediate" ceasefire during the month of Ramadan. The United States, which exercised its right of veto on up to three occasions, gave the text the 'green light' on March 25.In response, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz then accused Petro of colluding with "the murderers" of Hamas - which controls Gaza - and their "crimes", assuring that such "support" is a "shame for the Colombian people".Petro has been very active since last October 7, when Palestinian militias attacked Israel, resulting in 1,200 deaths and 240 hostages. In fact, in January the Colombian president proposed a peace commission to move towards a cessation of hostilities and start new talks for the release of the kidnapped people who remain in Gaza.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The Fed gives the ECB the initiative to begin reversing the restrictive monetary policy in JuneMADRID, 1 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the United States Federal Reserve (Fed) has decided to maintain interest rates in the target range of 5.25% to 5.5% for the sixth consecutive meeting. , at maximum levels since January 2001, as reported by the institution this Wednesday, warning of the absence of substantial progress towards its inflation objective."The Committee decided to maintain the target range for the federal rate between 5.25% and 5.5%," the Fed's governing body announced, noting that "when considering any adjustment to the target range for the rate, "The Committee will carefully assess the incoming data, the evolving outlook and the balance of risks."The Committee has also advised that it does not expect it to be appropriate to reduce the target range until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably towards 2%.In this sense, the members of the Fed Committee highlight that recent indicators suggest that economic activity has continued to expand at a solid pace and employment growth has remained strong and the unemployment rate is falling, while inflation, at Despite having decreased last year, it remains high."In recent months, there has been a lack of greater progress towards the 2% inflation objective," the Committee warned in its statement, where it points out that the risks to achieving its double goal of employment and inflation have moved towards a better balance over the past year, although the economic outlook is uncertain and the Committee remains very attentive to inflation risks.In its statement, the Fed Committee has stressed that in assessing the appropriate monetary policy stance it will continue to monitor the implications of incoming information for the economic outlook, adding that it would be prepared to adjust the monetary policy stance as appropriate if any risks that may prevent the achievement of objectives.To address the escalating cost of living, the US central bank, led by Jerome Powell, raised interest rates eleven consecutive times between March 2022 and July 2023.Last week, the US Department of Commerce's Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that the personal consumption expenditure price index, the Fed's preferred statistic for monitoring inflation, stood at 2.7%. year-on-year in the month of March, two tenths more than in February.For its part, the US gross domestic product (GDP) registered an expansion of 0.4% in the first quarter of the year, half of the 0.8% growth in the fourth quarter of 2023, according to the first estimate published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of Commerce. In annualized figures, the US economy between January and March advanced 1.6% compared to 3.4% in the previous three months.With its decision this Wednesday to maintain rates, the Fed leaves the European Central Bank (ECB) free to take the initiative in reversing the monetary cycle, after the 'guardian of the euro' has expressed its willingness to undertake a first rate cut in June if there are no surprises in incoming data.In this sense, the Governing Council of the ECB plans to meet again to discuss the monetary policy of the eurozone on June 6, while the Federal Open Market Committee of the Fed will not do so until June 12.FED BALANCEOn the other hand, the Fed Committee has reported that it will continue to reduce its holdings of Treasury securities and agency debt, as well as agency mortgage-backed securities.In this sense, starting next June, the Committee will slow down the rate of decrease in its securities holdings by reducing the monthly redemption limit of Treasury securities from 60,000 million dollars (56,085 million euros) to 25,000 million dollars. (23,369 million euros).For its part, the Committee will maintain the monthly repayment limit of agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities at $35 billion (€32,717 million) and will reinvest any principal payment that exceeds this limit in Treasury securities.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The 'popular' have also signed two Cs MEPs for their candidacy: Susana Solís and Eva PoptchevaMADRID, 1 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -The former general secretary of Ciudadanos Adrián Vázquez confirmed this Wednesday that he will run in the next European elections on June 9 on the Popular Party list, which will also include two other orange MEPs Susana Solís and Eva Poptcheva.According to the newspaper 'El Mundo', Vázquez and Solís will be in starting positions, accompanying Dolors Montserrat in the top 20 places on the list, while Poptcheva will appear in the next section of the candidacy."At a critical moment in our democracy we must be on the side of defending the rule of law and the founding values of the Union," Vázquez wrote in a message on the social network 'X', collected by Europa Press.Adrián, who resigned from the General Secretariat of Ciudadanos last March, justifies his jump to the PP with the argument that the formation led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo at "this moment is the only political alternative" capable of "reconstructing" the " civic and constitutional coexistence"."I proudly announce that I will attend the European Parliament on your lists to contribute to that objective," continues Vázquez's message, who also takes the opportunity to thank Feijóo for the trust placed in him and "recognition" of his work in recent years.It was on March 22 when Vázquez resigned from his position as general secretary of Ciudadanos, in which he remained for just over a year. The decision was made after the failure of the negotiations that the orange party had opened with the PP to participate together in the Catalan and European elections.Then Vázquez assured that he could not commit to a cause in which he no longer believed and nor "be an obstacle." He was a supporter of that electoral alliance with the 'popular', which was opposed by another sector of the party, especially its head in Catalonia, Carlos Carrizosa, Ciudadanos' candidate for the Catalan elections on May 12.Vázquez assumed the General Secretariat of Ciudadanos in January 2023, after the refoundation process launched after the 2022 Andalusian elections to try to overcome successive electoral debacles.He won the primaries forming a duo with Patricia Guasp, who assumed the political spokesperson for the party. That internal process opened wounds within the party, which split in two when Edmundo Bal proposed an alternative candidacy to that of Vázquez and Guasp, supported by the party apparatus.Trained in international relations, Vázquez (Madrid, 1982) served as an advisor to Ciudadanos in the European Parliament before becoming an MEP.]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[LOGROÑO, May 1.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[LOGROÑO, May 1. (EUROPA PRESS) -The general secretary of the Popular Party, Cuca Gamarra, stated this Wednesday in Logroño that Pedro Sánchez is carrying out "an exercise in democratic degeneration" to "avoid being controlled by counterpowers such as judges, the opposition and the free media", compared to what has been defended by the summons to give explanations in Congress that the 'popular' have made to the President of the Government, and the PP alternative for a "true regeneration."In a visit he made this morning to the Concentric Architecture Festival, which ends today in the capital of Rioja, Gamarra pointed out that "we have lived a spiritual retreat, so to speak, of Pedro Sánchez for five days and when the time to face the Spaniards, what we have found is a President of the Government who did not assume any type of responsibilities and continued without giving any type of explanation to the problems that surrounded him."When he reappeared - continued the leader of the PP - the problems of the Spanish people were there and remained there. He only talks about a problem that he imagines, some persecutions that he says he suffers, but the reality of Pedro Sánchez is that "He has a personal problem, which is a political and judicial problem. But while he worries only about that, about how to escape from that problem, the Spaniards have all their problems there."Thus, in his opinion, "what Pedro Sánchez does with this great deception is that he wants to turn 48 million Spaniards into secondary protagonists of the reality of our country."He has made reference, on the other hand, to data "on the growth of unemployment and job destruction, the data from the last week of inflation, how prices continue to rise and people do not make it to the end of the month, how we Spaniards continue to pay more personal income tax and it does not adjust to the increase in the cost of living, therefore there is more tax pressure, the problems continue for young people to access housing and so we could add up.""We see," he added, "how every day there are more Spanish families that have all their members unemployed or how the Spanish shopping basket already has 10% of Spaniards who cannot even eat protein two days a week." week. These are the problems of the Spanish people, about which Pedro Sánchez has apparently not reflected at all during the last five days. What we tell the Spanish people is that for the Popular Party they are the protagonists and that there is another policy. possible, the policy that seeks solutions, is what we work on and is what we are for and what we are going to be for.In the words of Gamarra, "above all this exercise, this great deception that is behind it is an exercise of democratic degeneration on the part of Pedro Sánchez to avoid being controlled by those who in a democracy have to control him, that is, the counterpowers, the judiciary, of course the opposition and a free press.Faced with all this, he considered that "Alberto Nuñez Feijóo already has an alternative that he has proposed, and it is true democratic regeneration, which involves requesting the appearance of the President of the Government in Congress to give explanations to all Spaniards, to all Spaniards about what he has not yet given a single answer about and intends to flee and above all also to specify what are those plans with which he wants to attack the independence of the judiciary and also wants to attack the freedom of the press in our country"."In Spain, with our pillars of the Rule of Law we do not have any type of problem. Pedro Sánchez has the problem with the pillars of the Rule of Law in our country. Those who have the obligation and responsibility to control it and who we are going to continue defending. One, that he appears. Two, the non-use of what should be independent institutions such as the CIS, such as Radio Televisión Española and so many institutions that it is colonizing," he assured.Furthermore, he highlighted the need to "promote an institutional regeneration plan in our country, the one that all Spaniards already know and that needs to be reinforced, and of course we will call on Spanish society not to remain still or silent." , as the Popular Party and Alberto Núñez Feijóo are not going to remain still or silent."Regarding the hoaxes, Gamarra has stated that "behind all this screen that Pedro Sánchez has generated during these last five days, there is an attempt to victimize himself and say that he is being persecuted and become a persecutor, a persecutor of the free press, a persecutor of Power." Judicial, persecutor of the opposition".Therefore, he said, "one question is that hoaxes have to be combated within the framework, that it has to be done, and another thing is that everything that bothers Pedro Sánchez or that he does not like because it refers to his behaviors, to their surroundings, their party or their government, whether it is a hoax, or not.Furthermore, he has criticized that "for lies, those of the president himself, which we have seen how he has manipulated phrases that President Feijóo has not said and that he is using them over and over again in reference to his wife whom he uses as a shield, we are waiting to deny or apologize for the lies and hoaxes that he himself has been using during the last 48 hours."Therefore," he added, "the first thing you have to do is, if it really is an exercise in good faith, something that I believe that at this point everyone already doubts, that it is solely and exclusively an electoral strategy." using a sentimental strategy, since obviously he shouldn't be lying.The 'popular' official has appealed to "the possibility of promoting more transparency in the information and activities that affect the environment of the President of the Government, something that is already being promoted at the European level and that can also be promoted in Spain." But, he warned, "let us not forget the conflict of interest that already exists in our country and what we are talking about and what Sánchez does not realize and that directly affects him is the situation of conflict of interest that exists has been able to produce due to the activities that its environment has developed"."There have been other couples of the president of the government in our country and it is a matter of acting in a coherent manner and in a manner evidently according to the rules of common sense and the protection of what should be the conflict of interests between whoever is in charge. of the country and the activities or interests that its entire environment may have. What we have raised is the possibility of regulating the transparency that must exist in relation to the activities of the President of the Government or the Government as a whole", he concluded. .]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[VALENCIA, May 1.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[VALENCIA, May 1. (EUROPA PRESS) -The Valencian Institute of Competitiveness and Innovation (Ivace i) has financed the design and validation of a new device to detect prostate cancer "in a more effective, precise and less invasive way than the digital rectal examination, one of the medical tests widespread in primary care", as reported by the Generalitat in a statement.This is a technology that has been developed by the La Fe Health Research Institute (IIS La Fe) of Valencia, in collaboration with the Valencia Biomechanics Institute (IBV) and the Higher Council for Scientific Research (CSIC).This innovation will improve screening for the aforementioned type of tumor, which in Spain is the one with the highest incidence in the male population with more than 35,000 new cases diagnosed in 2021, the regional administration has indicated.Likewise, he highlighted that the financial contribution of the Department of Innovation, Industry, Commerce and Tourism, through Ivace i, has allowed "advance in previous research until the manufacturing of the final prototype and its subsequent validation." To this end, a clinical trial has been carried out that has corroborated the effectiveness of this new tool, called Prostacto.The objective now is to market the medical equipment, the Generalitat has indicated, which has pointed out that for this the IIS La Fe, the IBV, the CSIC and the Network of Technological Institutes of the Valencian Community, through its investment instrument Redit Ventures , have formed a spin off that is completing clinical tests for certification.The idea is to launch this product on the market in 2025. The Generalitat has stated that the company is expected to have a turnover of three million euros in five years and employ ten highly qualified professionals.The device integrates a medical ultrasound, which guarantees precise positioning in the area of the prostate to be studied, and a sensor that is capable of measuring the rigidity of this gland "in a much more reliable way, thus eliminating the subjectivity of examinations such as rectal examination".Prostacto "not only provides information automatically and with a high degree of precision, but also stands out for its easy handling, portability and low cost," added the Valencian administration.Currently, prostate cancer screening is performed by combining different tests. The identification of abnormal values of the PSA protein through a simple blood test is the most common warning sign, which must then be confirmed by touch.However, in 18 percent of cases the tumor does not increase the concentration of this protein in the blood, so assessment through the rectal route is the main method available for its detection.The technology developed by the IIS La Fe will avoid possible late diagnoses, which will in turn result in an improvement in survival rates and the quality of life of patients, the Generalitat has highlighted."The original idea is basic: to transform any subjective medical information into objective data," highlighted Dr. César David Vera Donoso, head of the Integrated Urological Translational Research Center of Valencia (NITIUV), who has led the development of this project.The IBV has contributed to the design and construction of a programmed electronic diagnostic system, while the Institute of Instrumentation for Molecular Imaging (I3M), an entity of mixed ownership between the CSIC and the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) has been in charge of the development and integration into the device of an ultrasound imaging system for visualization of the prostate.The initiative is aligned with the conclusions of the Health innovation committee, which is committed to optimizing surgical tests and processes so that they are less invasive and with fewer associated side effects, the Valencian administration has highlighted.Likewise, the initiative falls within the main axes of the Intelligent Specialization Strategy of the Valencian Community, S3, coordinated by the Department of Innovation, Industry, Commerce and Tourism.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[(Information sent by the signatory company)-MolecuLight present in 11 presentations and posters at the European Wound Management Association (EWMA) Annual Conference 2024Extensive clinical evidence using the MolecuLight imaging platform reveals its significant global adoption and proven utility in wound careTORONTO and LONDON, May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- MolecuLight Inc., the leader in point-of-care digital wound measurement and real-time bacterial detection using fluorescence imaging, announces that its MolecuLight wound imaging platform features prominently in several presentations and posters at the European Wound Management Association (EWMA) Annual Conference 2024, taking place May 1-3, 2024 in London, United Kingdom. The EWMA Annual Meeting is the largest wound care conference in Europe and one of the most important events globally for wound care professionals."We are honored by the widespread adoption of MolecuLight point-of-care devices among physicians around the world, who see them as a highly valuable and transformative tool in their wound care practices," said Anil Amlani, CEO of MolecuLight. "The impressive collection of at least 11 talks and posters from multiple and diverse facilities worldwide shows how the MolecuLight imaging device is becoming a new standard of care in this specialty. The diverse range of presenters from North America, Europe and South America underscores the global reach of MolecuLight imaging technology. The clinical evidence shown at EWMA is reflected in more than 80 peer-reviewed publications worldwide, showing the significant benefit of MolecuLight i:X® and DX™ for clinical evaluation. of wounds. practice and results."Dr. Jonathan Johnson, a wound care thought leader and health equity expert based in Washington, DC, will speak at EWMA about how MolecuLight's innovative technology overcomes disparities in wound assessment in dark skin tones. “It is critical to highlight healthcare barriers that disproportionately impact minority populations and EWMA provides the perfect forum to reach a global audience with this vital work.” When asked about his upcoming presentation, Dr. Johnson commented, "I am honored to share my latest research showing how MolecuLight improves bacterial detection in wounds regardless of skin tone, a critical limitation of traditional clinical evaluation." "This technology is helping to remove important barriers to equitable care. By supporting the adoption of MolecuLight imaging, we are paving the way for a healthier, more equitable future.""As lead author of two studies that will be presented at this edition of EWMA with MolecuLight, I am delighted to show how fluorescence signals can revolutionize bacterial treatment and ultimately lead to optimized wound outcomes," said Rosemarie Derwin. , an experienced nurse, educator and researcher from Dublin, Ireland. "Our research underscores how essential adequate and objective bacterial clearance from the wound bed is in our efforts to achieve healing and ultimately improve the quality of life of our patients," she concluded.The collection of 4 presentations and 7 posters featuring MolecuLight imaging devices show how clinical decision making is informed and improved through its digital wound measurement feature, detecting high bacterial load in wounds next to the bed and, surprisingly, its ability to monitor and track wound size and bioburden over time and minimize operator bias. The studies presented span the continuum of wound care, including:The findings to be presented illustrate the significant clinical improvements in multiple aspects of wound care provided by the MolecuLight platform.A selection of the clinical posters and presentations presented by the MolecuLight i:X and DX at the European Wound Management Association (EWMA) 2024 Annual Conference are as follows:(a) Some clinical presentations and workshops that mention MolecuLight point-of-care devices include:(b) Some clinical posters citing MolecuLight point-of-care devices include:MolecuLight i:X and DX are the only imaging devices for real-time detection of elevated bacterial load in wounds that are FDA Class II cleared, CE marked, and Health Canada approved. With clinical evidence including more than 80 peer-reviewed publications, the devices are used by leading wound care centers globally.About MolecuLight Inc.MolecuLight Inc. is a privately held medical imaging company with a global presence offering fully commercialized point-of-care digital wound measurement and real-time bacterial detection through fluorescence imaging platform technology.
