The latter has undoubtedly been the most problematic part of the suspension of these public transport aid. For Relieve the price of fertilizersThe State forces the discount to be at least half of the original cost of it. Of that 50% discount, the State contributes 30% as long as the City Council or the Autonomous Community put at least the other 20%. The drop in the measure plunged users into a sea of ​​doubts. For more than 20 days, in Spain they have been able to buy multiviaje bonds and titles in half of the price of the same. The aid falls, some autonomous communities, such as Madrid, confirmed that they maintained the aid in their entirety, putting the money that remained in their pocket. Others only confirmed that they maintained their part of the discount but would not support 30% of the State. From tomorrow, with the publication in the BOE, transport aids are subsidized again. In short, you can access the following Aid: Free fertilizer fertilizers, surroundings and medium distance services with origin and destination already predefined.

In the Canary Islands and Balearic Islands, urban public transport aid was 100% throughout 2025. That is, for a good part of the month, the fertilizers could be acquired with discount and have been used normally because the user had an acquired right with the Multiviaje title. With the temporary suspension of aid, who have bought a new multiviaje or fertilizer title will have done it without aid, at the same price as before falling aid or an intermediate point (Depending on where they got him). Again, since January 29, the user can return to one of the aforementioned titles with the specified discounts.

What does the possible acquisition by Microsoft mean for the future of Tiktok?

by

The future of Tiktok in the United States has once again been at the Center for Attention after Donald Trump’s statements, who said Microsoft could be in conversations to acquire the platform. This occurs in a context marked by national security concerns and a possible prohibition of the application if a sale to an American company is not specified before the end of the term imposed. The controversy around Tiktok Tiktok, the popular application of short videos, He has faced constant scrutiny in the US due to his links with the Chinese company Bytedance. US authorities fear that the platform can share user data with the Chinese government, which represents an alleged risk to national security. During his first administration in 2020, Trump tried to prohibit Tiktok unless Bytedance sold his American subsidiary to a country company. Although that effort did not materialize, the concerns about the application persisted. Now, with Trump back in the presidency, The president has granted an extension of 75 days to Tiktok to find an adequate buyer. If the sale is not specified, The platform could face a veto in the US market again. Microsoft returns to the scene In your most recent statements, Trump revealed that Microsoft is interested in acquiring Tiktok. When asked specifically about this possibility, the president replied: “I would say yes. There is a lot of interest in Tiktok. There is great interest in Tiktok. ” It is not the first time that Microsoft is mentioned in the context of a possible buytok purchase. In 2020, the technology company had conversations to acquire the US operations of the application, although these negotiations did not prosper. However, its renewed interest could reflect the importance of Tiktok as a key actor in the digital ecosystem and its influence on the US market, where it has 170 million users. Recently, Trump said Microsoft would be more than interested in being the Tiktok buyer. (Photo: Joan Mateu Parra/AP) Elon Musk or Mrbeast as possible buyers? In addition to Microsoft, Trump He also mentioned other possible interested in acquiring Tiktok. Among them he highlighted the technological billionaire Elon Musk, although the latter has not made public comments on the subject. On the other hand, The Creator of Content Jimmy Donaldson, known as Mrbeast, has caused a stir when announcing his intention to present an “official offer” to buy the platform. This unexpected movement generates curiosity about the future of Tiktok under the leadership of an influential content creator, whose innovative strategies could transform the application. Tiktok sale implications The possible sale of Tiktok not only represents a commercial transaction, but also a critical point in the relationship between the US and China. The outcome could have significant consequences for technological companies, users and diplomatic relations. In economic terms, the acquisition of Tiktok would give the buyer access to a massive user base and data, as well as a privileged position in the social media market. For users and content creators, uncertainty about the future of the platform could alter its way of interacting and generating income. Regarding national security, the sale of Tiktok to an American company could mitigate fears about the use of data by the Chinese government, although this aspect will continue to be a debate. With a period of 75 days in progress, Tiktok’s fate in the US is not yet decided. While Trump’s statements about Microsoft and other interested parties suggest that there are viable options, the details of any potential agreement remain uncertain. For now, the eyes are placed in the actors involved, from technological giants such as Microsoft to unexpected figures as MRBAST. Whatever the result, the story of Tiktok promises to continue being a relevant issue in the technological and political landscape.

There is a country in Europe where one in three inhabitants is a millionaire and only 46% were born there: Monaco

by

If you think of a city in Europe that the supercar is already part of the landscape of their streets, luxury stores follow each other on their boulevards and the supereyates are attached to their marinas, you are probably Thinking about Monaco. However, luxury and exclusivity do not remain in the posture of its streets. One of the higher concentrations of millionaire population of all the Mediterranean. So much so, that the majority of its population is foreign and is one of the countries in which it is more complicated to belong to the richest 1% of its population, according to the report ‘The Wealt Report of 2024‘Prepared by the consultant Knight Frank. Monaco’s population is not Monegasca. With an area of ​​just 2.02 km2, the Principality is the second smallest country in the world, only behind the Vatican. According to demographic data, In 2023 it had a census population of 38,367 inhabitants, of which 21,042 citizens They are of foreign originmainly from France, Italy and the United Kingdom. This means that only 46% of the total population is of Monegasco origin. In recent years, the percentage of the population of foreign millionaires It has been decliningbut in the 60s of the last century, they reached figures close to 70% of its population. High density of millionaires. According to Knight Frank’s report, in Monaco there are some 13,400 people of very high purchasing power. That assumes that approximately 35% of its resident population, has a equity available to invest more than one million dollars, discarding the value of its habitual residence from that amount. The economic data They point out that the GDP per capita of the Principality of Monaco in 2023 was 256,580 dollars, compared to the $ 33,500 in Spain, the 44,690 dollars of France or the 99,564 dollars recorded Switzerland. In Monaco it is difficult to be “rich”. Belonging to 1% of the richest elite is not easy in any country, but being in one with the density of a millionaire per m2 that Mónaco has is even more complicated. According to Knight Frank data, to belong to the 1% richest population in Monaco, it will be necessary to have a heritage of more than $ 12,883,000. Instead, for belong to the 1% richest in Spainthe same person would need a heritage of $ 2,468,000 or $ 5,813,000 to be considered part of that millionaire elite in the US. No taxes and no tax havens. For decades, Monaco was considered a fiscal paradise for his low taxation and the fiscal secret that protected its inhabitants. International diplomacy has made small principality open its archives and, with it, left the fiscal paradise lists. Despite that, its residents enjoy a total absence of direct imposition. That is, there is neither IRPF nor societies for companies. Income and assets are not subject to imposition, so there are no taxes on investment income, capital gains, dividends or yields such as worker, freelance or manager of a company. The only taxation that can support those fortunes that have more than 25% of their activity outside Monaco is a 25% tax on benefits.

Doñana has been on the edge of the precipice for decades. Now we have an experiment to see if we can rebuild it from scratch

by

On July 24, 2015, the Council of Ministers He approved to give him 35 million euros to the Guadalquivir Hydrographic Confederation to buy a farm. Very few intuited it a decade ago, but on that farm was a good part of Doñana’s future. We are about to see it come true. A farm? What farm? The Cortijo de los Mimbral were 1,061 hectares in the Doñana forest crown. Of these, about 968 hectares They were dedicated to the cultivation of orange and the rest were “structures, warehouses, roads interior mobility and boundaries, rafts, etc.”. That 2015, the government bought 922 of them. And he did it with the idea of Recover a water concession. That is, with the idea of ​​reducing by 6.8 hm3 the annual water extractions of the Almonte and Las Marismas aquifer. And it was done. With some controversy with the surroundings of the environment, the closure of the mimbrals was good news for the conservation of the park. And, eye, it is not an area of ​​Spain in which good news abounds. But, beyond that and in practice, the farm had been abandoned for years. Now it’s time to see what we do with her. Because the mimbrals are, above all, an opportunity. We must not lose sight that we talk about a thousand hectares that, for years, underwent quite intensive agricultural processes that denatured their traditional state. The great question of Doñana’s technicians has always been the same,?can go back? Can we restore paradise? That, According to Minister Aagesenit is what is going to try. The great laboratory to recover Spain. To begin with, the General Directorate wants to renaturalize the two channels that cross the farm and seal the drainage channels. Thus, they hope to recover the lagoon and riverside habitats. To do this, they will recover native plant species (and eliminate eucalyptus, acacias or reeds); And they wait Reintroduce the rabbit which is “a fundamental element in Doñana’s trophic chain.” They are just five million euros, but they aspire to be a key piece of a 1,400 million program for the entire park environment. And why do you say from Spain? Because, although we usually talk about desertification because it is the most pressing problem, this is only a particular case of Ecological degradation processes of the soil that limit the capacity of the ecosystems to self -regulate. In the mimbrals you will try something of what We have spoken in recent days: Create solid and living ecosystems where nature can develop (and repair itself) without the pressures of the human world. If the project is successful, a very interesting path will be marked not only to recover the natural heritage, but above all for fight the worst consequences of climate change.

Federal authorities confiscate machinery that processs 160,000 daily fentanyl pills

by

Machinery for processing 160,000 daily fentanyl pills is part of the smuggling merchandise seized in the Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex. Next to the Los Angeles Maritime Museum, the interim federal prosecutor of the Department of Justice, Joseph T. McNally announced the arrest of eight individuals: four of Chinese origin and four Latinos who were part of a sophisticated network of smugglers. The main leader is a fugitive and is speculated that he hides in China. The specific figures associated with the alleged criminals were: $ 130 million in smuggling seized and $ 200 million in smuggling goods attributed to the defendants, including counterfeit goods and chemical precursors to produce narcotics and machinery to produce fentanyl pills. At present, the authorities have seized more than $ 1.3 billion in counterfeit products associated with this type of smuggling and other similar schemes of stamps. Container surveillance is extreme in the Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex. Credit: Jorge Luis Macías | IMPREMEDIA Cloned seal The criminal plan fell apart in 2023 when a Customs Agriculture and Border Protection (CBP) specialist in a routine review detected that the seal of a container had been cloned. This prevented the detection of smuggling merchandise from the containers arriving at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. The original seal was found within the container that the worker was inspecting. “This case attests to its unwavering surveillance, maximum professionalism and great focus on protecting the integrity of legal trade, a key component of our critical national security mission,” said Cheryl Davies, director of Customs field operations and border protection of USA. Davies informed that, among the smuggling seized were substances, controlled, chemical precursors, weapons, spare parts for weapons, false postcards, currency and falsified consumption products, drug paraphernalia and more than 220 tons of prohibited plant and animal products. Customs Office and Border Protection staff were present.Credit: Jorge Luis Macías | IMPREMEDIA Shipments also contained several capsules filling machines, which can be used in the production of illicit chemicals. “To import a machine for encapsulating pills, a permission from the US drug administration (DEA) is needed,” Jaime Ruiz, Customs spokesman and border protection of the United States (CBP) told La Opinion. “They are large, automatic and similar machines; When they are smuggled, they have a potential capacity to produce between 160,000 and 190,000 fentanyl pills daily. ” Order forces also intercepted around 50 falsified stamps and made 204 seizures, including controlled substances and prohibited items. The band of alleged criminals hired $ 300 or up to $ 10,000 to truck drivers to transport smuggling items. Thus, the investigations will be extended to the drivers of tractocamiones that were probably involved in the distribution of merchandise. There could be more arrests. “The message for these people who abuse their position of trust and for truckers in the port, is that if they participate in this behavior (to get involved in smuggling), they could go to a federal prison,” said prosecutor Joseph T . “There are real consequences for them if they participate in smuggling and for those who organize fraud,” he added. “We will detect this behavior, we will process them and face important sanctions in the federal judicial system.” Jaime Ruiz is a spokesman for the Office of Customs and Border Protection (CBP).Credit: Jorge Luis Macíás | IMPREMEDIA McNally said that truckers will not be able to argue that they did not know that the load they transported was not illegal. “The truckers were not innocent. The accusation alleges that these individuals participated consciously and voluntarily in the plan. ” In the investigation that began since 2023, in addition to the Federal Prosecutor of the United States of Los Angeles, agents of National Security Investigations (HSI), Customs and Border Protection of the United States (CBP), and the investigation services of investigation of The Coast Guard. The investigation began since 2023 The joint operation of order forces is part of an operation of the anti -drug work group against organized crime (OECTF). Federal Prison If they are convicted of all charges, those accused of a federal large jury would face a maximum legal sentence of five years in federal prison for each position of conspiracy, up to 10 years in federal prison for each charge of breaking customs stamps and up to 20 years Prison for each smuggling position. Seven defendants were arrested on Friday, an eighth was arrested on Saturday night and a defendant is fugitive. Seven of those arrested have already been prosecuted in the United States District Court. Each of them declared innocent of the charges against him and for March 18 the date of the trial is scheduled. If they are convicted of all charges, the defendants would face a maximum legal sentence of five years in federal prison for each conspiracy charge, up to 10 years in federal prison for each charge of breaking customs seals and up to 20 years in prison for each smuggling . Change of stamps According to the accusation, Weijun Zheng, Hexi Wang, Jin “Mark” Liu and others maintained and operated stores to store, hide and sell large amounts of smuggling goods that were illegally imported to the United States from China. When smuggling containers were selected by the United States Customs and Border Protection Office (CBP) for inspection, the defendants hired commercial truck drivers to transport containers from the port of Los Angeles to private warehouses controlled by conspirators , including stores in the city of Industry that were controlled or managed by Zheng, Wang and others. In these places, the accomplices broke the safety stamps of the shipping containers and took the smuggling from the interior. Then, they placed false security stamps on the containers to hide that they had removed the load of them. Subsequently, Zheng, Wang and others ordered their accomplices to transport the containers (after emptying them from much of their original load and securing them with false seals) to places authorized by the CBP so that the rest of the … Read more

The risk of collapse of the Ría de Arousa

by

Seafood “Made in Galicia” has jumped today The headlines of The Guardianbut for a reason that will hardly glad any of the workers who are dedicated to slaughter on their coasts to collect berobe, clam or mussel. In a public act and with official data In hand, Platform in Defense Da Ría de Aruous (Pdra), brotherhoods and groups of mussel producers have just launched a ‘sos’ in the face of the collapse of the amount of seafood they extract from the estuary. Their data reflects a clear billing fall, but also something else: in its coastal strip today much clam, shoes and mussels that years ago. What happened? That in the Ría de Aruous, The most extensive from Galicia and usually generous In mollusks and crustaceans, a full -fledged ‘SOS’ has just launched. A few days ago the Platform in Defense Da Ría (PDRA), Brotherhoods and professionals in the musical sector organized a press conference To share a series of data that reflect to what extent the catches have lowered on their coasts. They are not the first to raise their voice. The sector has already Some time handling data worrying At the regional level. Two months ago Vigo lighthouse He informed that the sector has had to deal with the worst mussel harvest of the decade, with a 23% drop in 2023; and in October The Galician mail He spoke that in the Galician markets a 46% less octopus had been auctioned, attending to their weight. DATA FOR REFLECTION. The data broken down by the brotherhoods and PDRA are strong enough to have called attention of the British press. And rightly. Beyond the prick of sales, which in 2024 stayed in 69 million In the rains of the estuary, far from the average of 85.2 million recorded the previous five years, the seafood collection balances are alarming. In 2024 the production of berobe descended to minimums, with a 93.7% drop with respect to the average of the 2019-2023 five-year period. In net terms, he stayed in just 19 tons. And things were not much better in the captures of fine and slug clam. If compared to the same period, more than 85%were reduced. In general, the production of bivalve fell 44.7% With respect to the 2019-2023 period. “Progressive deterioration”. For the pdra the reading that these figures leave is clear: they speak of a gradual degradation of the area, a reality of which they have been warning. ” “(The estuary) is suffering a progressive deterioration that is reflected year after year, in the loss of tons of bivalves, millions of euros, of Permex and with the seafood banks without recovery capacity”, They warn. World power. What happens on the Galician coast arouses interest beyond the autonomous community or Spain because, such as remember The Guardian and claims the own Xuntaits sector plays a key role internationally. “Galicia is the first world power in cultivation and marketing of mussels and is placed second after China in terms of production and extraction of this bivalvo,” they point out from the regional executive before recoding that by their coast they are distributed 3,337 batsmost in the Aruous estuary. Of them usually starts around 40% of the European production of the Bivalvo. A campaign to forget. The balance for those responsible for managing the bats is not precisely flattering either. Waiting for last year’s final data, 2023 left a balance of 178,065 tons of mussels sold for just under 120 million euros, the lowest figure in the last quarter of the century, Remember eldiario.esand far from the good results harvested in 2022. Xunta herself recognizes that it is normal for the bats to be distributed by Galicia every year more than 250,000 tons. And what is the reason? Producers They speak of the contamination generated by the wastewater treatment stations (WWTP) and spills of the factories, a diagnosis in which Marta Martín-Borregón seems to coincide, by Greenpeace Spain, in statements a The Guardian. “The main cause is the contamination from the waste expressed to the estuary, coming from agriculture and factories, such as canvas.” “The waters of the estuar are normally cold and the currents contribute many nutrients. With the warm -up of the seafood there are no assembly in warm waters.” That scenario, Martín-Boregón emphasizesit goes especially to the mussels and threatens the “collapse” of the sector dedicated to the marshal. When analyzing the fall in production of bats They are usually pointed out the lack of seed and the high temperature. “We need to help us”. The phrase It is on this occasion of María del Carmen Besada Meis, responsible for the Fishermen’s Brotherhood of San Martiño, in the Ría de Arousa, and that these days he shared his frustration with the British press. In his opinion one of the keys to the situation with which they have to deal with is Climate change And the torrential rains of recent years, but cries out: “What we would like is for someone to come and do adequate investigation.” “We are shellfish, we do not know what the solution is, so we need scientists to help us,” emphasize. Hence, Pdra, Brotherhoods and Mussel producers demand the Xunta de Galicia that intervene “urgently” in the sanitation and regeneration of the Ría de Arousa. Those affected demand that the problem addresses “Serious” And they show their rejection of two projects that, according to their critics, would affect the regional ecosystem: the Altri plant projected in Palas de Rei and the Tour and pine mine.

Former President Evo Morales says that the CIA operates in Bolivia to capture it

by

The former president of Bolivia Evo Morales said that the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency in Spanish) of the United States “operates” in the Andean country To capture it, after three months of an alleged attack against his life that would have happened in October 2024 in the tropics of Cochabamba. The ex-president (2006-2019) denounced on October 27, 2024 that he was the victim of an “armed attack” when he was mobilized by the road, he held President Luis Arce for the fact and then said, without presenting evidence, that the Government of States United was involved in the “attack.” The Minister of Government, Eduardo del Castillo, accused days after the alleged attack on the former president to shoot several police officers with a firearm and to hurt one when they performed routine anti -drug control.

It will impose tariffs from 25 to 100% to the chips manufactured in Taiwan

by

Donald Trump is fulfilling his word. During the electoral campaign he promised that he would make the decisions that were necessary to reinforce the business of US companies within the US. And he also assured that he would sanction tariffs all those countries that threaten the interests of the nation that leads since January 20. As soon as he has been in the government for a week, and he is doing both. “In the very close future we will impose tariffs on foreign production of computer chips, semiconductors and pharmaceutical products to return the manufacture of these essential goods to the US (…) went to Taiwan; now we want them to return. We do not want to give them Millions of dollars in the ridiculous Biden program. 100%”, Donald Trump declared yesterday during a conference that was held in Florida (USA). This measure of the Donald Trump’s government has not taken TSMC offset The express mention to Taiwan that the US president has made a few hours ago is a very clear allusion to TSMC. On this Asian island there are other semiconductor manufacturers, such as UMC, but its relevance in the chip market is much lower than that of the company currently leading CC Wei. TSMC dominates the integrated circuit market with A quota of approximately 60%so your leadership in the chip manufacturing industry is indisputable. TSMC has been leaching its strategy for more than four years to extend its semiconductor manufacturing infrastructure beyond Taiwan’s borders Anyway, the passing step that the US administration is going to give will not take TSMC by surprise. This company has been outlining its strategy for more than four years to extend your manufacturing infrastructure of semiconductors beyond the borders of Taiwan. And he is doing it for two reasons. On the one hand it is an effective way to protect your business if at any time it is triggered A war conflict between China and Taiwanand their plants on the island were useless. But, in addition, TSMC is significantly developing its infrastructure in the US. His plan is that their new Arizona factories not only serve to protect their business from a possible conflict between China and Taiwan; They also protect it from the foreseeable US tariffs. The first of these plants is already producing integrated circuits in the N4 lithographic node, which belongs to the Finfet family of 5 Nm. In fact, he is about to deliver Apple’s first chips games. The second Arizona factory will be operational in 2028 and will produce circuits integrated in N3 (3 Nm) and N2 (2 Nm) nodes. And finally, the third factory will not be listed at all until the end of this decade and will produce chips in the N2 (2 nm) node. So far the most advanced TSMC integration technologies were only available In its Taiwan plantsbut, as we have just seen, Soon they will also be in the US. And in this way it will solve two problems of a stroke: it will be fought from the tariffs that the Trump government will approve and will reinforce its production infrastructure beyond its country of origin. One last note: in addition to the US, TSMC is building New plants in Japan and Europe.
