U.S. Ambassador to Sri Lanka Julie Chung on Friday asked people to protest peacefully and called for the military and police “to grant peaceful protesters the space and security to do so.”,“Chaos \u0026 force will not fix the economy or bring the political stability that Sri Lankans need right now,” Chung said in a tweet.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"6.9271","longitude":"79.8612","name":"Colombo, Sri Lanka","city":"Colombo"},"keywords":"Sri Lanka,Rajapaksa,Parliament,Ranil Wickremesinghe,Colombo,Dinouk Colambage,Gotabaya Rajapaksa,Cabinet,Mohan Samaranayake,Rauff Hakeem,India,the International Monetary Fund,the Colombo National Hospital,Ven,Omalpe Sobitha","originalPublishedOn":"2022-07-09T19:00:02+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"F9bZnxzueDHw","slug":"english/uk-prime-minister-boris-johnson-agrees-to-step-down-reports","slugV2":"world/uk-prime-minister-boris-johnson-agrees-to-step-down-reports-695773/","title":"UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson agrees to step down: Reports","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_F4y0wG__f.jpg","coverCaption":"UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson (Photo Credit: AP)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-07-07T14:00:00+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eBoris Johnson has agreed to resign: UK media\u0026nbsp;\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e40 ministers quit his government\u0026nbsp;\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIt is not immediately clear who will replace him as PM\u0026nbsp;\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e","highlightSummaryFlag":1,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":1,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1657182502584,\\\"strCount\\\":6950,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/british/\\\\\\\"\u003eBritish\u003c/a\u003e media say Prime Minister \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/wires/associatedpress/british-media-sky-and-bbc-say-prime-minister-boris-johnson-has-agreed-to-resign-ending-unprecedented-stalemate-695769/\\\\\\\"\u003eBoris Johnson has agreed to resign\u003c/a\u003e, ending an unprecedented political crisis over his future.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Johnson had \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/wires/associatedpress/uks-johnson-defiant-even-as-opponents-tell-him-time-is-up-695698/\\\\\\\"\u003erebuffed calls by his Cabinet\u003c/a\u003e to step down in the wake of ethics scandals.

He's breached the trust that was put in him. He needs to recognise that he no longer has the moral authority to lead. And for him, it's over, Scottish National Party leader Ian Blackford told The Associated Press.

Johnson's future remains extremely uncertain. So far, most Cabinet officials have remained in their positions but a mass walkout by the Cabinet could force his hand if that leaves him unable to run a functioning government. If Johnson still refuses to resign, the Conservatives could oust him by potentially triggering a new no-confidence vote. Johnson survived such a vote on Jun. 6 — though his authority took a beating because even then 41% of his lawmakers voted to get rid of him. Under current party rules, a year must pass before another formal leadership challenge can take place. But an influential group of Conservative lawmakers known as the 1922 Committee has the power to rewrite the rules to allow a fresh confidence vote within a shorter timeframe.

He has remained in power despite allegations that he was too close to party donors, that he protected supporters from bullying and corruption allegations, and that he misled Parliament and was dishonest to the public about government office parties that broke pandemic lockdown rules. But recent disclosures that Johnson knew about sexual misconduct allegations against Chris Pincher, a Conservative lawmaker, before he promoted the man to a senior position pushed the prime minister to the brink. Last week, Pincher resigned as deputy chief whip after complaints he groped two men at a private club. That triggered a series of reports about past allegations leveled against Pincher — and shifting explanations from the government about what Johnson knew when he tapped him for a senior job enforcing party discipline. Health Secretary Sajid Javid and Treasury chief Rishi Sunak resigned within minutes of each other Wednesday over the scandal. The two Cabinet heavyweights were responsible for tackling two of the biggest issues facing Britain — the cost-of-living crisis and COVID-19. Javid captured the mood of many lawmakers when he said Johnson's actions threaten to undermine the integrity of the Conservative Party and the British government. At some point we have to conclude that enough is enough, he told fellow lawmakers Wednesday. I believe that point is now.

The report also says that according to one official, Harris tested negative in her regular testing up until Tuesday. Harris finished her two-dose Moderna COVID-19 vaccine regimen in January 2021. She had her first booster shot in late October, followed by a second shot on April 1. The vice president's positive COVID-19 test comes as the United States has largely dropped most of its COVID-19 mitigation measures in the aftermath of the Omicron variant rise this winter.

Covid cases in Washington have been on the rise since their peak in early January when the country was dealing with a wave of Omicron variant infections. Despite the fact that the White House has continued to organise packed interior events where masks are optional and officials have refused to wear masks in public, the administration has stated that they are going above and beyond government guidelines to identify COVID-19 in the facility. There is mandatory testing for anyone who comes into contact with Biden, as well as social separation during meetings, when possible. White House press secretary Jen Psaki assured that the administration is not considering reintroducing pandemic-era restrictions. We are continuing to implement the return-to-work policy and feel we have the measures necessary to do that, she said. COVID-19 has recently made the rounds among White House personnel and the Washington elite. Also read: Why Europe is balking at a ban on Russian energy? Explained,Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary, cancelled her intentions to accompany the President to Belgium and Poland in late March after testing positive for COVID-19 for the second time. Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House's chief deputy press secretary, tested positive immediately after returning from the trip. Harris' husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, was diagnosed with COVID-19 in March. Following the Gridiron Club Dinner, an annual event attended by members of the press and key Washington politicians, dozens of attendees tested positive, including two Cabinet members and Harris' communication director, Jamal Simmons. He was regarded as a close associate of the vice president. Following such close encounter, Harris was chastised for appearing to disobey US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention masking guidelines for persons who had been exposed to COVID-19, since she did not wear a mask before the Supreme Court confirmation vote for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. On Tuesday, Democratic Senators Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Ron Wyden of Oregon disclosed that they, too, had tested positive.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"38.9072","longitude":"-77.0369","name":"Washington D.C., DC, USA","city":"Washington"},"keywords":"US,Kamala Harris,White House,Harris,the White House,Washington,California,CNN,Jen Psaki,The White House,Kirsten Allen,CDC,Joe Biden,the Naval Observatory,the Easter Egg Roll,Moderna","originalPublishedOn":"2022-04-26T22:09:42+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"A4bs0HbBgDhP","slug":"english/china-to-boost-coal-production-amid-setback-to-emission-cut-efforts","slugV2":"world/china-to-boost-coal-production-amid-setback-to-emission-cut-efforts-195384/","title":"China to boost coal production amid setback to emission cut efforts","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_ZWZq8dOXA.jpg","coverCaption":"Smoke and steam rise from towers at the coal-fired Urumqi Thermal Power Plant as seen from a plane in Urumqi in western China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region on April 21, 2021.

The New York-based Human Rights Watch urged the authorities to probe the apparent use of excessive force by police in the incident and take appropriate steps against any wrongdoing. Also read: IMF asks cash-strapped Sri Lanka to restructure debt before bailout: Report,Patricia Grossman, the group’s associate Asia director, said “the use of live ammunition” by police against demonstrators “appears to be a flagrant misuse of lethal force.”,“People protesting government policies that affect their lives and livelihoods shouldn’t have to fear for their lives,” she said in a statement released late Wednesday night, adding, “International law prohibits the use of lethal force by law enforcement officers unless there is an imminent threat to life. Also read: Myanmar military government denies rumours of fuel shortages,The group said Sri Lanka has a long history of failing to provide justice and redress to victims of human rights violations. The statement comes hours after Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa pledged an impartial and transparent inquiry into the shooting which was the first by security forces during weeks of protests and reignited widespread demonstrations across the Indian Ocean island nation. Also read: Protester shot dead by Sri Lankan police, first death since start of massive protests,The shooting occurred in Rambukkana, 90 kilometers (55 miles) northeast of the capital, Colombo. Public Security Minister Prasanna Ranatunga said Wednesday that police had been patient but needed to use minimal force to stop the protests from escalating into major violence. ,Opposition leader Sajith Premadasa responded by asking Parliament, “Does killing a protester mean the use of minimal force?”,Also read: Sri Lankan PM Mahinda Rajapaksa says president's powers will be reduced,“What this murderous and terrorist government does today is the suppression of the people,” he added. Fifteen police officers were treated at a hospital for minor injuries after clashes with the protesters on Tuesday. Police said the demonstrators in Rambukkana blocked railway tracks and roads and ignored police warnings to disperse. Police also said protesters threw rocks at them. Much of the anger expressed in weeks of growing protests has been directed at Rajapaksa and his elder brother, Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa, who head an influential clan that has been in power for most of the past two decades. Five other family members are lawmakers, three of whom resigned as Cabinet ministers two weeks ago. Also read: Protesters burn tyres, block roads as Sri Lanka faces fuel shortage, price hikes,Sri Lanka is on the brink of bankruptcy, with nearly $7 billion of its total $25 billion in foreign debt due for repayment this year. A severe shortage of foreign exchange means the country lacks money to buy imported goods. Sri Lankans have endured months of shortages of essentials such as food, cooking gas, fuel and medicine, lining up for hours to buy the limited stocks available. Fuel prices have risen several times in recent months, resulting in sharp increases in transport costs and prices of other goods. There was another round of increases earlier this week. Western Diplomats and U.N. officials voiced concern over the shooting and called for for an independent investigation while urging the right to peaceful protest be safeguarded. Mahinda Rajapaksa has said the constitution will be changed to clip presidential powers and empower Parliament. The prime minister said the power shift is a quick step that can be taken to politically stabilize the country and help talks with the International Monetary Fund over an economic recovery plan. Gotabaya Rajapaksa concentrated power in the presidency after being elected in 2019. Both the president and prime minister have refused to step down, resulting in a political impasse.

Also Read| Academy says Will Smith refused to leave Oscars as it mulls disciplinary action,SEBI mandates 30 day period for rebalancing portfolios of mutual fund schemes ,Markets regulator Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) on Wednesday announced timelines for the rebalancing of portfolios of mutual fund schemes to bring uniformity. SEBI issued a circular that said the rebalancing period would be applicable in the case of deviation from mandated asset allocation mentioned in the Scheme Information Document (SID) due to passive breaches. Generally, passive breaches are not arisen due to omission and commission of Asset Management Companies (AMCs). Rebalancing of all mutual fund schemes, except Index Funds and Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), must be done within 30 business days. In case, the rebalancing is not done within the required timelines, justification in writing, including details of efforts taken to rebalance the portfolio must be presented to the concerned investment committee. The committee can extend the timelines up to 60 business days from the date of completion of the mandated rebalancing period. SEBI states that AMCs will not be allowed to launch new schemes until the portfolio is rebalanced within the extended timelines.

The plan comprises rupee-ruble denominated payments using Russia’s messaging system SPFS, reported Bloomberg citing sourced. There has been no final decision and the matter is likely to be discussed when Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will arrive in India for a two-day visit on Thursday. India is keen to continue bilateral trade as it relies on Russia for weapons and cheaper oil as global prices surge. Oil prices have been highly volatile since Russia invaded Ukraine in February. India’s bilateral trade with Russia averages $9 billion in past few years, mainly comprising defence hardware, fertilizer and some oil. Russia is India’s main supplier of India’s hardware. Given the heavy discounts on Russian crude oil since that attack on Ukraine, India has purchased at least 13 million barrels, compared with around 16 million barrels imported from the country for the whole of last year. According to the proposal, rubles will be deposited into an Indian bank and converted into rupees and the same system will work in reverse, said the report. Whether the exchange rate will be fixed or floating is still up for discussion.

By the administration's estimate, the U.S. can gather roughly $11 billion in revenue over 10 years—and nearly $5 billion next year alone—by modernizing rules to apply certain financial accounting and reporting practices to digital assets. The Biden Administration projects $6.6 billion in revenue between the 2023 and 2032 tax years from applying mark-to-market rules to actively traded cryptocurrencies. Mark to market is a way of appraising the value of assets that takes into account current market conditions; it stands in contrast to using the purchase price of an asset, which may be higher or lower than its fair market value.

The last Democratic president Barack Obama had in his cabinet seven women as well as a black secretary. Biden’s cabinet, from his picks so far, will look something like this:,1.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003cb\u003e\nKamala Harris (Vice President)\u003c/b\u003e – Kamala Harris’\nelection as the new Vice President has been a ceiling-breaker, to say the\nleast. Being the first woman, first black, as well the first South Asian VP in\nthe White House after an inspirational election run, eyes will certainly remain\non Harris to see how she plays her part in helping set the course of the US\nthrough the next four years as Biden’s second-in-command. The former Attorney\nGeneral of California and only the second black woman to have been elected as a\nUS Senator in 2016, Harris having a background in the criminal justice system\nwould arguably be having an impact in the currently unstable political scenario\nin the US.,2.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eAntony Blinken (Secretary of State)\u003c/b\u003e – Having\nserved in the Obama administration as the deputy secretary of state from 2015\nto 2017, Blinken has been a close confidant for Joe Biden who elected him as\nthe Secretary of State on January 23 alongside other members of his national\nsecurity team. The coming back of Blinken into the administration might hint\ntowards the multilateralism seen during the Obama - the idea that even though\nUS can take action on its own around the world, it rarely should – can possibly\nmake a come back in the White House.,3.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eJanet Yellen (Secretary of Treasury)\u003c/b\u003e – The\nformer Federal Reserve chair will be the first person to head the Treasury, the\ncentral bank, and the White House Council of Economic Advisors, the three most\ninfluential economic positions in the United States at the same time. With\nincumbent President Donald Trump replacing her as the head of the central bank\nin 2018, Yellen is set to return and already has expressed her desire to use\nfiscal measures to implement economic recovery.,4.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eLloyd Austin (Secretary of Defense)\u003c/b\u003e – Biden\nannounced a report published on The Atlantic on December 8, 2020 that Lloyd\nAustin, who has previously overseen the US forces in the Middle East under\npresident Obama, would be his Defense Secretary. Austin retired from the Army\nin 2016 and would need a waiver from the US Congress in order to nullify the\nseven-year waiting period before he can take up the job.,5.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eTom Vilsack (Secretary of Agriculture)\u003c/b\u003e - Vilsack\nled the US Department of Agriculture under the Obama administration and has been\nbrought back to the task by Biden. Iowa’ Governor from 1999 to 2007, Vilsack\nworked in the Biden campaign as an advisor on rural issues. The return of the\nIowa-native to the designation can be a cause of celebration for Midwestern\nstates, who supply the country’s major share of food grains such as corn, wheat\nand the like.,6.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eXavier Becerra (Secretary of Health and Human\nServices)\u003c/b\u003e - On December 7, Biden named California attorney general Xavier\nBecerra the Health and Human Services Secretary under his administration. A\n12-time Congressman who played an influential part in passing the Affordable\nCare Act in Congress, he, if elected, is expected to be tasked with\nreorganising the department for pandemic response amidst the chaos that 2020\nsaw erupting between public health officials and officials appointed by\nPresident Donald Trump.,7.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eAlejandro Mayorkas (Secretary of Homeland\nSecurity)\u003c/b\u003e – As per Joe Biden’s announcement on January 23, Alejandro Mayorkas,\nthe deputy secretary of the homeland security under President Obama, will be\nheading the department of Homeland Security, becoming the first Latino and the\nfirst immigrant to do so. As the director of US Citizenship and Immigration\nServices under Obama, Mayorkas led the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals\n(DACA) program, a policy Biden has so far talked about restoring under his\npresidency.,8.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eMarcia Fudge (Housing and Urban Development\nSecretary)\u003c/b\u003e – A Representative from Ohio, Marcia Fudge has served in the House\nof Representatives since 2008. Prior to being elected to Congress, she was the\nMayor of Warrensville Heights, a Cleveland suburb. If successfully appointed,\nFudge would be the second black woman to head the Department of Housing and\nUrban Development which relates to Federal policymaking with regard to housing.,9.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eDeb Haaland (Secretary of the Interior)\u003c/b\u003e – Democratic\nCongresswoman from New Mexico, Deb Haaland will be Biden’s pick for the\nInterior Secretary, as per the latter’s announcement on December 17. Haaland\nwould become the first Native American cabinet secretary as well as the first\nto oversee the department, with her jurisdiction including federally-owned\nnatural resources and tribal lands.,10.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eMarty Walsh (Secretary of Labour)\u003c/b\u003e – Walsh has\npreviously served as the chief of the Boston Trade Council, a conglomerate of\nconstruction unions, with his nomination being supported by two of the biggest\naffiliates of the American Federation of Labour and Congress of Industrial\nOrganisations (AFL-CIO).,11.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eGina Raimondo (Secretary of Commerce)\u003c/b\u003e – Rhode\nIsland Governor Gina Raimondo, as per a report by New York Times, has been\nnominated to lead the Department of Commerce - a key economic position in a\ngovernment agency which has under its ambit operations as widely spread as\ntechnology reg ulation, the census, promotion of industry in the US, and the\nnational Oceanic and clim+ate-change related policymaking through National\nOceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).,12.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eDenis McDonough (Secretary of Veterans Affairs)\u003c/b\u003e\n– White House Chief of Staff during the second term of former president Barack\nObama, McDonough was nominated by Biden to lead the Veterans Affairs Department\non December 10. McDonough served his early career helping the House Committee\non Foreign Affairs. However, a significant disadvantage he might face in the\nDepartment that has put to trouble both the parties in past years, could be him\nnot having served in the armed forces.,13.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eMerrick Garland (Attorney General) \u003c/b\u003e– Garland,\nwhose nomination was blocked by Republican Mitch McConnell in 2015, had his day\non January 7, as he was formally sworn in by president-elect Joe Biden as the\nAttorney General. Bound to head the Justice Department, Garland, currently a\njudge on the US Court of appeals for the District of Columbia circuit, would be\nleading the beleaguered Justice department after events such as unsubstantiated\nelection fraud claims and a mob attack in the Capitol Hill took place late into\n2020 and early 2021.,14.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eJennifer Granholm (Secretary of Energy)\u003c/b\u003e – Having\nserved as the first female Michigan Governor from 2003 to 2011, Jennifer\nGranholm is set to take on the role of Secretary of Energy in the Joe Biden\ncabinet. She has presumably had prior working experience with Biden, as in 2009\n– when the latter operated as Vice President under president Barack Obama, she\nhad worked with him on the bailout of automobile manufacturers during the\nrecession period. Her experience can turn out to be a major plus point, as\nBiden proceeds towards implementing more and more green energy alternatives to\nconventional sources of power.,15.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\u003cb\u003eMiguel Cardona (Secretary of Education) \u003c/b\u003e– Connecticut’s\ntop education official, Miguel Cardona was tapped to lead the Education\ndepartment on December 22 by Joe Biden.
