Various of news conferenceSTORYLINE:China’s Foreign Ministry on Wednesday defended the recent passage of the country’s aircraft carrier near Japan, saying the navigation was conducted “fully in line with international law and basic norms of international relations.”Spokesperson Mao Ning made the remarks at a daily news briefing, responding to Japan’s Defense Ministry’s statement that the Chinese carrier Liaoning, was spotted sailing through the East China Sea near the Senkaku Islands, territories claimed by both Japan and China, the latter referring to them as the Diaoyu Islands.“We hope Japan can see this in a reasonable and objective manner,” said Mao.The disputed island chain lies northeast of Taiwan, an area where Chinese military activity, including deployments of aircraft, naval vessels, and surveillance balloons, has been frequent, escalating regional tensions.China has two aircraft carriers including the Liaoning, a third undergoing sea trials and a fourth under construction.Separately, Mao said China noted the U.S. decision to halt the scheduling of new visa interviews for foreign students hoping to study in the U.S.“China always believes that normal educational cooperation and academic exchanges should not be disrupted. We urge the U.S. to earnestly safeguard the lawful and legitimate rights and interests of international students from all countries, including those from China,” she said.A U.S. official said on Tuesday the suspension is intended to be temporary and does not apply to applicants who have already scheduled their visa interviews.The move, first reported by Politico, is the latest in the Trump administration's crackdown on international students.The deal was made during a recent tripartite summit involving China, Southeast Asian nations, and six Gulf countries.Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWorkTwitter: https://twitter.com/AP_ArchiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/APArchives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/APNews/You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/youtube/bb80f3d4e8b943c1b5a485fd48f3c3d3--Support podtube.me continuity as a free service.

The trend has been spreading amongst developers for the past couple of decades and there were agrihoods in at least 27 U.S. states and Canadian provinces as of a 2018 report from the Urban Land Institute, with more cropping up since then.Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWorkTwitter: https://twitter.com/AP_ArchiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/APArchives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/APNews/You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/youtube/18c49d2c85bf4efaa7ba455e9d5ca8e1--Support podtube.me continuity as a free service.

- Julian Perretta talks about his new single and video(6 May 2010) SHOTLISTLondon, August 10th 200910 mins approx1. Sit down interview with Julian Perretta including the following sound bites:"'Wonder Why' is my first single, I wrote two years ago now. It's quite strange writing a song two years ago and then kind of skipping forward to now it being kind of relevant. It's a song that I wrote about trying to make it in the music industry, trying to get signed. I was really frustrated, wondering why things don't always go the way you hope they would. I was really naive, when I was 18, 19, so that song kind of came from that.''"The video, yes a bit mad. We got together with a guy called Matt Kirkby who'd directed kind of some interesting videos that I really liked. Not so much commercial videos, he's kind of a bit leftfield. The video was just - he was like, 'I don't think you should be in a car with loads of girls in bikinis, you know, don't do it. Let's not do it like that, let's do something a little bit more interesting.' So I'm in a coffin. I'm in a doctor's surgery. It was really kind of fun. We were in this massive, massive warehouse, you might have noticed. That was seriously the biggest room I've ever been in.''''It's just... Mungo Jerry an artist from the late '60s, '70s had a song called 'In the Summertime', which was a really big song for me growing up and I remembered it, in the summertime and he played a kazoo in it. And it was just something that I thought, 'Ah that's interesting, haven't heard that in a pop song in a long time'. It's not actually a kazoo on the record, as much as I'd like to think it is, we tried it with a kazoo, but it sounded like a duck when we actually recorded it, so it's an effect that's called kazoo effect on Pro Tools, but, yeah, that what it is.''''I met a manger who manages Girls Aloud and she said to me 'Look, I think there's something interesting about the songs, I think maybe we've got something there we should pursue and go to record companies and see what happens.' When I was like, 19 or 18 we started to go to labels and I signed a deal a year and half ago now, started making the album and toured with Girls Aloud this year, which was really good fun. Mark Ronson last year and it's all been quite weird, two years later we're here now, but it felt like such a long space of time when I was doing it, but now it feels like it's just been (snaps his fingers) you know.''FURTHER RESTRICTIONS: NoneUSED FOR STORIES # : 616776TAPE FORMAT: DVCAMFind out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWorkTwitter: https://twitter.com/AP_ArchiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/APArchives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/APNews/You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/youtube/004d1bf16b5f413f902168021a81990c--Support podtube.me continuity as a free service.

Mid of Merz and Zelenskyy leaving paradeSTORYLINE:Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with new German Chancellor Friedrich Merz in Berlin on Wednesday as Kyiv seeks further military support amid a recent escalation in Russia's bombing campaign, despite U.S.-led efforts to end the war.Germany has been the second-biggest supplier of military aid to Ukraine after the United States.Merz has plunged into diplomatic efforts to try to secure a ceasefire and keep Western support for Ukraine intact since becoming Germany’s leader three weeks ago.European leaders have accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of dragging his feet in U.S.-led peace talks.Zelenskyy said Tuesday that Ukraine is ready to hold peace talks at the highest level, including a trilateral meeting with himself, Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump.Meanwhile Merz said on Monday that Germany and other major allies are no longer imposing any range restrictions on weapons supplied to Ukraine as it fights to repel Russia's full-scale invasion, which began in February 2022.Merz’s government hasn't said whether it will supply its Taurus long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine, something his predecessor, Olaf Scholz, refused to do and which Merz advocated for as opposition leader.The government has said it would no longer provide full details of the weapons it's supplying to Ukraine, unlike Scholz’s administration, citing the need for “strategic ambiguity.”Taurus missiles have a range of up to 500 kilometers (310 miles). The German- and Swedish-made missiles, which are equipped with stealth technology, would be able to reach targets deep in Russia from Ukrainian soil, including the Black Sea.Ukraine wants the missiles to complement the long-range Storm Shadow missiles sent by Britain and France’s nearly identical Scalp cruise missiles.Zelenskyy had said that he planned to discuss the supply and use of long-range weapons in his talks with Merz.===========================================================Clients are reminded to adhere to all listed restrictions and to check the terms of their licence agreements.

- European companies cut costs, scale back investments in China as its economy slows(28 May 2025)RESTRICTION SUMMARY:ASSOCIATED PRESSBeijing, China - 28 May 20251. Wide of media briefing by European Chamber in China2. Wide of Jens Eskelund, President of European Chamber in China, on the left3. Close of flags of China and the European Union4. SOUNDBITE (English) Jens Eskelund, President of European Chamber in China:“Business confidence in China amongst European companies have sunk to the lowest level we have on record. And we have done this for 22 years running now. There are multiple reasons for that. We also see, maybe not unsurprisingly related to the low level of confidence, that when we look at the two-year perspective ahead, optimism has also hit an all-time low. We're beginning to see now that this insecurity, uncertainty about the future, and the squeeze that many companies are feeling on their earnings is beginning to spill over in operational strategies.”5. Logo of European Chamber6. European Chamber staffers at briefing7. SOUNDBITE (English) Jens Eskelund, President of European Chamber in China:“Slightly more than half of our members are planning on engaging in cost cutting in 2025. I think, again, this is a concern because these are the things that are beginning to affect employment and tax payments.”8. Various of reporters9. SOUNDBITE (English) Jens Eskelund, President of European Chamber in China:“Our members are telling us that their primary concern is the state of the Chinese economy. It's China's economic slowdown. Now truth be told and also in all fairness to China, we actually see demand growth. But the underlying problem for European business is that we now, for a year and a half, have seen manufacturing output outpacing what the local domestic market is able to absorb. So even if we have respectable demand growth, the fact that there has been so much additional investment into manufacturing for which maybe there is no real market in China, that is what has led to deflation or under-utilized manufacturing capacity and a pressure to export.”10. Wide of Eskelund speaking11. Wide of briefingSTORYLINE:European companies are cutting costs and scaling back investment plans in China as its economy slows and fierce competition drives down prices, according to an annual survey released Wednesday.Their challenges reflect broader ones faced by a Chinese economy hobbled by a prolonged real estate crisis that has hurt consumer spending.Beijing also faces growing pushback from Europe and the United States over surging exports.Jens Eskelund, the President of European Chamber in China, said about one third of member companies plan to cut cost in 2025, with potential implications for tax contribution and employment.Their main concern stems from China's economic slowdown, followed by China-US tariff war, according to the survey.The same forces that are driving up Chinese exports are depressing the business outlook in the Chinese market.Chinese companies, often enticed by government subsidies, have invested so much in targeted industries such as electric vehicles that factory capacity far outpaces demand.The overcapacity has resulted in fierce price wars that cut into profits and a parallel push by companies into overseas markets.In Europe, that has created fears that growing imports from China could undermine its own factories and the workers they employ.The EU slapped tariffs on Chinese EVs last year, saying China had unfairly subsidized electric vehicle production.===========================================================Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWorkTwitter: https://twitter.com/AP_ArchiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/APArchives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/APNews/You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/youtube/f02d4402e1cf48fe8b68f251bb320758--Support podtube.me continuity as a free service.
