Vietnamese people hesitate not to take risk to reach the UK

By 1093 0

In the recent past, tens of thousands of Vietnamese people have risked their life to reach the United Kingdom.

Unfortunately, most of them have not succeeded in their mission. And, some of them have even fallen under the clutches of death.

Yet, the illegal migrant flow from Vietnamese to the UK is still heavy. Middlemen make millions through the business.

It is poverty in Vietnam that keeps the flow heavy. Even though Vietnam is a booming economy, the wealth is not distributed equality in the country. Therefore, some regions in the country are still poor. It is those in this region more vulnerable compared to the rest.

There are two kinds of travel options available: premium and economy. Even though the latter sounds to be less risky, in reality both are equally risky.

From the moment an illegal migrant steps out of his/her country, he/she is under the mercy of his/her agent. That means anything can happen to a illegal migrant en route to his/her dream country.

By 1085 0

The European country of France, where the popularity of e-scooters and the number of young e-scooter users have seen tremendous increases in the recent years, has decided to bring laws to control the misuse of e-scooters.

The law has come as the country has seen several severe e-scooter accidents in the recent past.

Last week, a young man died and a woman serious injured when the e-scooter in which they had been travelling struck a car.

Likewise, several similar incidents have been reported in the recent past.

The proposed regulation will bring cap to the speed of e-scooters from the present speed of 50 km/h to the regulated speed of 20 km/h.

Hereafter, these scooters will not be allowed to travel through the pavements designed for pedestrians.

Moreover, the proposed regulation is likely to disallow the travelling of more than one person in a e-scooter at a time.

E-scooter has many fans in France. Its popularity is partly due to its environment friendly character.

By 1440 0

The remains of the most brutal leader the European country has ever seen, Francisco Franco, have been removed from the vast mausoleum, in which he was buried several decades ago, to a low-key grave.

The relocation was a key promise of the Socialists. The relocation is the victory of the Socialist leaders.

The Spanish government has successfully surmounted the opposition raised by the family members of the dictator.

The family members of the leader have strongly challenged the decision to relocate the remains of the leader.

The Spanish government has stayed close to its stand that it could not allow the glorification of a Fascist leader.

Mr. Franco was a brutal dictator who ruled the European country of Spain for several decades.

His burial place was regarded as a symbol of Fascism. In the recent past, several protest happened across Spain demanding the destruction of that symbol.

The relocation is considered as the victory of that movement.

Russia inks deal with Turkey over Syria

By 1490 0

Russian President Vladimir Putin has inked a historic deal with Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan over the issue of the Syrian Kurds, which recently suffered a military attack from Istanbul.

The agreement allows the Turkish forces to retain the regions they have already captured from the Syrian Kurds. And, moreover, it demands the removal of the Syrian Kurds far way from the Turkish border.

No Syrian Kurd leader has commented about the agreement yet. It remains unclear whether the Syrian Kurds will agree to the agreement reached between Russia and Turkey.

The agreement keeps largely silent over the matter of Qamishii, the most sensitive area which comes under the territory from which the agreement asks the Kurds to leave – where the Syrian Kurds are concentrated in large numbers, especially after the commencement of the Turkish offensive.

It is assumed that the Syrian Kurds is less likely to agree to an agreement which asks them to leave Qamishii.

The coming hours are very crucial. The agreement gives only 150 hours for the Syrian Kurds to act.

Green parties make huge gains in Swiss election

By 1270 0

The two main Green parties have made huge gains in the latest Switzerland election, by winning at least 20 per cent of the total votes that were casted in the election.

The counting process is still progressing.

As per a latest update, the SVP is still in the top position. The report says the Socialists and the Liberals have retained to the second and third positions respectively.

Yet, the notable fact is that all the aforesaid parties have lost their vote shares considerably. The SVP, the party which has been dominating the Swiss politics for several years, even has lost more than three per cent. The other parties have also suffered similar serious losses.

Though there is no change in the positions from the first to the third, there is a huge change in the case of the fourth position.

The Christian Democrats, which was one of the four major parties in the Swiss coalition government, have been pushed away, and its position has been grabbed by the Greens.

If the things progress this way, the Greens for the first time will get a seat in the coalition government this time.

Climate change was the main issue that was discussed during the election campaign.

It seems that the discussion of the climate change during the campaign has worked hugely in favour of the Greens.

The preliminary indication of the result is that the anti-immigration rhetoric of the SVP has not been received well by the voters of Switzerland.

By 1273 0

This month’s match between fierce rivals Real Madrid and FC Barcelona is less likely to take place in the scheduled date, as the organisers fear that the match may get disturbed due to the ongoing protest in Barcelona against a Spanish court’s decision to jail certain pro-separatist leaders on the charge of sedition.

The match has been postponed as FC Barcelona has denied the suggestion of the organisers to change venue from Barcelona to Madrid.

The proposed El Clasico is very crucial, as this is the first match happen between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona since the declaration of the controversial verdict by the Spanish court against the Catalan independence leaders.

For the last few days, most regions in Catalonia, including Barcelona, have been witnessing serious protest against the verdict.

It is assumed that the Spanish government does not want to let the game take place in this turbulent time in the soil of Catalonia.
