Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened up 58-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,930
on turnover of $5.9-billion N-T.
The market moved sharply higher on Wednesday following a significant rebound
for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing - which closed the session with a
rise of 2-per cent ..
.. and that contributed about 160 points to the Tai-Ex's overall gains and
sent the electronics index up by 1.43-per cent.
FDA proposes relaxation of rules on Japanese beef imports
The Food and Drug Administration has released a draft revision to regulations
regarding Japanese bovine imports that, if implemented, would allow the
importation (輸入) of beef from cattle of any age.
Under current regulations, beef from Japan must meet several conditions,
including being derived from cattle under 30 months of age, inspected by a
veterinary officer, and produced by an officially-recognized factory.
F-D-A Deputy Director-General Lin Jin-fu says the government is seeking to
update the "Import regulations for Japanese beef and its products" to remove
the age limit for Japanese cattle - similar to regulatory practices in the
United States and Canada.
However, Lin says each batch of cattle products from Japan will still require
official veterinary certificates and be produced by "approved factories" to
be allowed to enter Taiwan.
US Supreme Court rejects Trump administration request to freeze foreign aid
The US Supreme Court has rejected (拒絕) an emergency request by the Trump
administration to freeze nearly 2 billion dollars in foreign aid.
The order requires the government to release the funds to aid groups for work
already completed.
Ira Spitzer reports.
Greece Protests Outside Parliament
Protesters have launched gasoline bombs and fireworks in clashes with police
outside Greece's parliament.
The protest Wednesday in central Athens is part of a nationwide wave of
demonstrations calling for politicians to be held accountable for a 2023 rail
disaster that claimed 57 lives.
Scores of youths set fire to trash bins and police in riot gear (防暴裝備)
responded with tear gas and baton charges.
There have been no immediate reports of injuries or arrests.
The fierce clashes erupted hours after opposition parties challenged
Greece’s center-right government with a no-confidence motion in parliament.
Victims' relatives want politicians to be held accountable for failures that
led to the head-on collision in February 2023.
Only rail officials have been charged.
Canada on Trump Tariffs
A senior Canadian government official says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is
not willing to lift Canada’s retaliatory tariffs if Trump leaves any tariffs
on Canada.
The official was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter, only saying
Trump and Trudeau spoke by phone around midday.
Other Canadian officials publicly echoed (附和) Trudeau's position.
Canada's commerce secretary has said there might be carveouts
(從整體中獲取一些東西) coming to the 25% tariffs placed on Canada and Mexico
by President Donald Trump, a softening of the U.S. position after Tuesday’s
tax hike hurt the stock market, worried consumers and started a trade war.
That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.
