France’s prolonged political crisis has turned the country into the euro area’s fiscal flash-point, taking over a role long played by Italy.

A translation of President Lai’s remarks follows:

I extend a warm welcome to Chair Toporovsky, who is visiting Taiwan once again. Chair Toporovsky is an important advocate for the deepening of Taiwan-Israel relations.

Taiwan and Israel hold regular dialogues on the economy, trade, technology, and agriculture. We have also signed 34 cooperation agreements and continue to deepen exchanges.

I'm looking for a tool to generate a simple personal website (like an online business card) to self host. Preferably a static site generator.

I'm now using Hugo, but it does too much for me and changes too often. (I can't update my current page, because the template is no longer arond)

Here is the link to submitted and published EU petitions and how to find them. I find it interesting that the submitted petitions are processed directly by the European Parliament's Committee on Petitions.

The following link takes you to the search mask, which I filled in as follows in the thread title link:

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/petitions/en/home => Start search

• Year: 2024, 2025
• Topic: none selected
• Status: Open to supporters
• Country: All EU member states, European Union

Of course, you can enter whatever you want in the search box. (Multiple selections possible) I don't quite understand why you would submit/search for an EU petition that only affects a single country. That is actually the responsibility of the country, not the EU. Perhaps someone has an example where an EU petition for a single country makes sense.

The ambassadors did not provide firm figures on the long-debated eligibility criteria, which will instead be set during the negotiations. Currently, third-country suppliers – including those from the UK and Canada – cannot supply more than 35% of the total value of any weapons contract financed through SAFE loans.

SAFE currently only allows European firms, along with Ukrainian and Norwegian ones – whose countries were granted access without negotiations with the Commission – to produce at least 65% of the value of defence products purchased through the programme.

This limit could be removed if the supplier’s home country signs both a Security and Defence Partnership and a separate eligibility agreement with Brussels, and contributes financially to the programme.
