The nomination paper of a candidate has to be subscribed by at least 20 electors as proposers and by at least 20 other electors as seconders. An elector can subscribe to only one nomination paper of a candidate as either a proposer or a seconder.

Unlike the presidential polls where the voting takes place at multiple locations as the elected MLAs, not the nominated members, also form part of the electoral college, in the vice-presidential election, the voting takes place in Parliament House.","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":"28.6139","longitude":"77.209","name":"New Delhi, Delhi, India","city":"Delhi"},"keywords":"Lok Sabha,BJP,Rajya Sabha,the Upper House,the Bharatiya Janata Party,Murmu,the Lower House,The Election Commission,Yashwant,EC,Parliament House","originalPublishedOn":"2022-07-05T17:20:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"KNiuUgRc28bj","slug":"english/draupadi-murmu-10-things-to-know-about-bjps-presidential-candidate","slugV2":"india/draupadi-murmu-10-things-to-know-about-bjps-presidential-candidate-684023/","title":"Draupadi Murmu: 10 things to know about BJP's presidential candidate","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_AF40zUnlG.jpg","coverCaption":"Draupadi Murmu is BJP's pick in upcoming presidential polls (Photo Credit; ","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-06-25T23:32:31+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eDraupadi Murmu has been named the BJP's candidate for India's 2022 presidential elections\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eShe was the former governor of Jharkhand\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHere are some key things to note about her:\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\\\":1655834110593,\\\"strCount\\\":3089,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/who-is-draupadi-murmu-683978/\\\\\\\"\u003eDraupadi Murmu\u003c/a\u003e, the former governor of \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/jharkhand/\\\\\\\"\u003eJharkhand\u003c/a\u003e, has been named the \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/in-draupadi-murmu-bjp-finds-tribal-face-to-follow-dalit-president-684019/\\\\\\\"\u003eBharatiya Janata Party's candidate\u003c/a\u003e for India's 2022 presidential elections.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Also read:\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/draupadi-murmu-former-jharkhand-governor-is-bjps-pick-for-next-president-683965/\\\\\\\"\u003eDraupadi Murmu, former Jharkhand governor, is BJP's pick for next President\u003c/a\u003e\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"In a late Tuesday media briefing, party chief JP Nadda stated, \\\\\\\"For the first time, preference has been given to a woman tribal candidate.

Also read: Opposition assemble: Leaders chuck differences for the 'sake of our nation',Mamata Banerjee, who had met Sharad Pawar on Tuesday evening, proposed his name for President at the Opposition meeting.

Truman. In the United States, Harry Truman Day is a national holiday. Who was Harry S. Truman? ,Harry S Truman was born in Lamar, Missouri on May 8, 1884. Truman began his political career in 1922 when he was appointed to the County Court of the Eastern District of Jackson County, Missouri. He held a number of other official positions. He was elected to the United States Senate for the Democratic Party in 1934 and re-elected in 1940. When his preparation group, known as the Truman Committee, discovered the squandering of military resources, he became more well-known and respected. In 1944, the Democratic Party chose Truman to be the vice-presidential candidate for Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was running for re-election to his fourth term as President of the United States. Roosevelt was elected president on November 7, 1944, and Truman was sworn in as vice president on January 20, 1945. However, Roosevelt died on April 12, 1945, as a result of a major stroke, and Truman was elected president.

He guided the US through the end of WWII and led major developments in international affairs in the late 1940s and early 1950s. These included the formation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), the struggle between mainland China and Taiwan, the Korean War, the First Indochina War, and the Soviet Union's development as a nuclear power. Following his presidency, he returned to Independence, Missouri, and established the Harry S Truman Presidential Library and Museum.

Truman campaigned tirelessly and effectively, making House Republicans the central issue of the election. In November 1948, when almost no experienced observers gave him a chance, he defeated Dewey decisively. Truman's accomplishments in both foreign and domestic affairs were the most challenging problems faced by any American president.","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":"37.495","longitude":"-94.2766","name":"Lamar, MO, USA","city":"Pittsburg"},"keywords":"Who was Harry Truman ,why is Harry Truman Day celebrated,Harry S Truman achievements","originalPublishedOn":"2022-05-08T16:44:16+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"YCP2s6OSOFVn","slug":"english/emmanuel-macron-faces-re-election-difficulties-as-france-votes-on-sunday","slugV2":"world/emmanuel-macron-faces-re-election-difficulties-as-france-votes-on-sunday-646942/","title":"Macron faces tough re-election fight as France votes on Sunday","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://images.opoyi.net/opoyi_7cNSnDL5I.jpg","coverCaption":"French President Emmanuel Macron (AP Photo)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-04-10T07:11:50+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eFrance will vote in the first round of a presidential election on Sunday\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eFar-right contender Marine Le Pen poses an unexpected danger to President Emmanuel Macron's re-election prospects\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eUntil recently opinion polls predicted an easy victory for pro-European Union centrist Macron\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\\\":1649554913782,\\\"strCount\\\":4584,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"France will vote in the first round of a presidential election on Sunday, with far-right contender Marine Le Pen posing an unexpected danger to \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/world/a-look-at-emmanuel-macrons-5-year-presidential-reign-272335/\\\\\\\"\u003ePresident Emmanuel Macron\u003c/a\u003e's re-election prospects.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Until recently, opinion polls predicted an easy victory for pro-\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/russia-ukraine-crisis-over-25-million-people-fled-ukraine-says-report-446660/\\\\\\\"\u003eEuropean Union \u003c/a\u003ecentrist Macron, who was bolstered by his aggressive diplomacy in Ukraine, a robust economic recovery, and the weakness of a fractured opposition.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Also read:\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/world/russia-must-not-hope-to-win-against-ukraine-warns-french-foreign-minister-589380/\\\\\\\"\u003e'Russia must not hope to win' against Ukraine, warns French foreign minister\u003c/a\u003e\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"However, the president's late entry into the campaign, with only one huge rally that even his fans considered unimpressive, and his focus on an unpopular plan to raise the retirement age have hurt his approval ratings, combined with a \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/business/us-inflation-jumped-75-in-the-past-year-a-40-year-high-651038/\\\\\\\"\u003esharp jump in inflation\u003c/a\u003e.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"In contrast, the anti-immigrant, euroskeptic far-right Le Pen has confidently toured France, all grins, her fans screaming \\\\\\\"We will triumph!

Also Read: Switzerland ready to pay for defending democracy in Russia-Ukraine war,Relocating the presidential office was one of President-elect Yoon Suk Yeol's main campaign promises. The conservative former top prosecutor, whose single five-year term begins on May 10, said the location and design of the Blue House have fed criticisms that South Korean presidents are cut off from the public and wield excessive power. At the Blue House, offices for presidential advisers and other officials, as well as the press room, are not in the same building where the president works. Also Read: Did PM Boris Johnson meet Russian donor on eve of Ukraine invasion?,At a televised news conference Sunday, Yoon said he will move the presidential office to the Defense Ministry compound in central Seoul and that he'll begin his term there. He said Defense Ministry officials would be moved to the Joint Chiefs of Staff building at the compound and that JCS staff would be moved in phases to a war command centre near Seoul. Yoon said a massive public park will be established near the new presidential office and those ordinary citizens will be able to look at his office from there at a close distance. He said he plans to establish a press centre at the new presidential office and meet journalists there frequently. Also Read: COVID toe, early COVID’s ugly side-effect, may finally have an explanation,According to Yoon's plans, the current Blue House will be open to the public as a park on his inauguration day.

Critics of Yoon's plan have called on him not to rush the relocation, saying other tasks require more urgent attention, such as surging COVID-19 cases, the North Korean nuclear threat and diverse economic woes. They also say the relocation could inconvenience the public and require excessive spending. Also Read: US father desperate to get 2-year-old son back home from Ukraine amid war,Outgoing liberal President Moon Jae-in had earlier also promised to move out of the Blue House but cancelled the plans after failing to find a site for the new office. Yoon said he was aware of concerns about the relocation, but said if he starts his term at the Blue House, which critics have called a symbol of imperial power, it will become harder to move out of it.

The two leaders started the call, their first since a video summit in November, at 9:03 am ET (1303 GMT), the White House said. Also read: Russian scientists say Moscow lying about US bioweapons in Ukraine: Report,The high stakes conversation will be a chance for Biden to try and persuade Xi to give up any idea of bailing out Russia from the effects of Western sanctions or even sending military assistance for Russia's onslaught against neighboring Ukraine. China's Xi Jinping said conflicts between states are in no-one's interest during the video call, Chinese state TV reported.

China should understand that their future is with the United States, with Europe, with other developed and developing countries around the world. Their future is not to stand with Vladimir Putin, she said. Biden has effectively rallied a strong Western alliance against Russia, while also providing military assistance to Ukrainian soldiers. However, Beijing has failed to criticise its fellow authoritarian friend, and Washington fears that the Chinese would move to full financial and military support for Russia, escalating an already volatile transatlantic confrontation into a worldwide conflict. Also read: Vladimir Putin complains of Ukraine stalling talks in call with Olaf Scholz,If this occurs, not only could Beijing potentially assist Putin in weathering sanctions and continuing his war, but Western countries would be forced to make the difficult decision of how to respond to the world's second largest economy, likely causing market upheaval. The White House has remained tight-lipped about whether Biden will threaten China with economic sanctions during his conversation, but a reaction is on the table. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Biden will make clear that China will bear responsibility for any actions it takes to support Russia's aggression and we will not hesitate to impose costs. The senior US ambassador encouraged China to use whatever leverage they have to compel Moscow to end this war, but he was concerned that they're considering directly assisting Russia with military assistance.

Against the backdrop of already heightened US-Chinese tensions over Taiwan and trade disputes, Biden and Xi's capacity or failure to reach an agreement on the impending chaos in Europe will have far-reaching consequences. When Xi and Putin met at the February Winter Olympics in Beijing, just before Putin unleashed his onslaught on Ukraine, they symbolically solidified their strong partnership. Since then, Beijing has stood out by refusing to join the international outrage over the invasion, instead siding with Russia in blaming the US and NATO for European tensions. In keeping with Kremlin talking themes, Chinese authorities even refuse to refer to the incursion as a war. China, on the other hand, has tried to stay somewhat vague, proclaiming support for Ukraine's sovereignty.

Unshaven. Wearing jeans and a hoodie. As he runs for re-election next month, French President Emmanuel Macron released unusual pictures of himself working nights and weekends at the Elysee palace, where he is spending most of his time focusing on the war in Ukraine — while avoiding traditional campaign activities. If it's a campaign strategy it seems to be paying off, reinforcing his position of frontrunner in the presidential race while making it difficult for other contenders to challenge him. Macron was criticized by other candidates for refusing to take part in any televised debate before the first round, scheduled on April 10. Also Read: EU imposes 4th set of sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine,He promised to answer at length journalists' questions in a news conference on Thursday afternoon — an effort to show he's not avoiding difficult issues, his entourage said. The centrist is expected to unveil his proposals for the next five years, including a controversial pension reform to raise the retirement age from 62 to 65. A government official involved in Macron's campaign said the president wants to respond to criticism. He will fully be campaigning in the coming days. Even though he formally announced he is running for a second term at the beginning of the month, Macron has not held any rallies yet. In recent days, he pushed for a cease-fire in phone calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and spoke on an almost daily basis with Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Last week, he gathered EU leaders at the Versailles palace, west of Paris, to discuss sanctions against Russia. France holds the rotating presidency of the European Union Council, which gives Macron a key role in coordinating the bloc of 27's response. Next week, he is expected to be seen alongside U.S. President Joe Biden, who is to come to Brussels for a NATO summit. Pollster Bernard Sananes, president of poll institute Elabe, said that obviously the international situation is reinforcing his stature. It gives the impression that Macron in 2017 has been elected on a promise to renew (politics) and that Macron in 2022 wants to be elected on the promise of (having) experience, he said in an interview with French newspaper L'Opinion. Polls show a majority of French people, whether they intend to vote for him or not, consider he is up to the job, he stressed. Polls see Macron about 10 percentage points ahead of far-right contender Marine Le Pen, placing them both in a position to reach the runoff and replay the 2017 election. They show that in that case the French president is widely expected to win. Another far-right candidate, Eric Zemmour, far-left figure Jean-Luc Mélenchon, and conservative contender Valérie Pécresse are amid other key challengers. Rivals have accused Macron of focusing on the situation in Ukraine to avoid speaking about domestic issues which may prove more tricky for him. Le Pen said Macron is using the war in Ukraine to scare French people, because he thinks scaring can benefit him. When there's a war, there's a reflex to be legitimist, Pécresse said. People think: there's a captain leading the operation ... We must not be afraid to change the captain on April 11, she added. Also Read: France fears for Ukraine as Russia attacks but refuses quick EU membership,Advocates for Macron argue that the situation in Ukraine involves key domestic issues that are being fully debated in the campaign, like energy and defense policies. Political history expert Jean Garrigues stressed the unifying impact around the head of state in a war-related situation. He recalled that the same effect was noticeable when Macron's predecessor, Francois Hollande, launched a military operation in Mali to drive Islamic extremists from power. Before him, France's greatest figures have proven their leadership in situations of war — from Napoleon to Charles de Gaulle. French public opinion is very much rooted in that history, Garrigues told the AP. Therefore, we can see that Macron's adversaries have no experience equivalent to the presidential function, or even as key ministers, and are de facto in a situation of inferiority, he noted. Pollsters said Macron's greatest challenge as the frontrunner may be a low turnout, with sympathizers not going to polling stations because they think he will win, while those angry at his policies would further mobilize. Macron himself acknowledged the risk in a behind-the-scenes video posted on his campaign's Youtube channel. That's what I'm going to tell the French, and also my supporters: If they think it's done, it means we have lost, he said.","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":"48.8566","longitude":"2.3522","name":"Paris, France","city":"Paris"},"keywords":"Macron,French,Ukraine,France,Emmanuel Macron,the Elysee palace,Russian,Vladimir Putin,Ukrainian,Volodymyr Zelenskyy,EU,the Versailles palace,Paris,Russia,the European Union Council","originalPublishedOn":"2022-03-17T14:30:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"fUuOeBMbzdcJ","slug":"english/vladimir-putins-strange-way-of-proposing-to-his-wife-left-her-baffled-biography","slugV2":"usa/vladimir-putins-strange-way-of-proposing-to-his-wife-left-her-baffled-biography-303154/","title":"Putin’s strange way of proposing to his wife baffled her, claims biography","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_sf3txcTVP.jpg","coverCaption":"Russian President Vladimir attends the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP) Congress in Moscow, Russia, Dec 17, 2021.

The divorce was confirmed when her name was later removed from Putin’s official biography on the Kremlin’s website. Shrebneva was educated as a linguist. In 1986, Lyudmila graduated from the branch of Spanish language and philology of the Department of Philology of Leningrad State University.

She met Vladimir Putin in Leningrad and they married on 28 July 1983. From 1990 to 1994, Shrebneva taught German at the Department of Philology of Leningrad State University. For a few years before Vladimir was appointed Prime Minister of Russia in August 1999, she was a Moscow representative of the company Telecominvest from 1998 to 1999 where she, as the only employee in the Moscow office, answered phone calls and organized meetings.

After she became First Lady, she was known as Lyudmila Putina. She created a fund that aimed to develop the Russian language and sometimes produced statements concerning the Russian language and education. Her preference for maintaining and preserving the Russian language led her to make public statements against orthographic reform. The Russian Academy of Science sponsored a commission to study the orthography of the Russian language and propose changes.

However, although one newspaper in Moscow alleged that Lyudmila Putin de facto cancelled any attempts to reform spelling, the fact remains that public and academic reaction to the reforms was sufficiently negative to have that particular reform attempt abandoned. On 6 June 2013, she and Putin publicly announced the termination of their marriage based on a mutual decision. The divorce announcement was made on camera for the Russian news media at the State Kremlin Palace during the intermission of a performance by the Kremlin Ballet, ending years of speculation about their relationship. In April 2014, the Kremlin confirmed that their divorce had been finalized. In January 2016, Lyudmila was reported to have married Artur Ocheretny in early 2015.","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":"55.7558","longitude":"37.6173","name":"Moscow, Russia","city":"Moscow"},"keywords":"Putin,Moscow,Vladimir Putin,Lyudmila Shkrebneva,Shkrebneva,Shrebneva,Leningrad,Kremlin,Vladimir,Russia,First Person,KGB","originalPublishedOn":"2022-03-13T00:30:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"2r7e9JXsZoGR","slug":"english/in-pics-left-leaning-gabriel-boric-sworn-in-as-chiles-youngest-president","slugV2":"world/in-pics-left-leaning-gabriel-boric-sworn-in-as-chiles-youngest-president-125542/","title":"In Pics: Left-leaning Gabriel Boric sworn in as Chile's youngest president","postType":4,"coverMedia":null,"coverCaption":null,"reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-03-12T02:45:00+05:30","highlightSummary":null,"highlightSummaryFlag":0,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":0,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1647033211614,\\\"strCount\\\":693,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"name\\\":\\\"intro\\\",\\\"text\\\":\\\"Gabriel Boric, the left-leaning former student leader, was sworn in as Chile's new president.

Here's what to know about the election for leader of the world's 10th-largest economy. ___,WHAT'S AT STAKE,The winner will take office on May 10 for a single five-year term. Current liberal President Moon Jae-in is barred by law from seeking reelection. The candidate who receives the most votes is declared the winner, even if that person fails to achieve majority support. The present election system was adopted in 1987 when South Korea's then military-backed government caved to massive pro-democracy protests and accepted sweeping liberalizing measures. ___,THE CANDIDATES,The election has boiled down to a showdown between ruling liberal Democratic Party candidate, Lee Jae-myung, and his conservative opposition rival, Yoon Suk Yeol, from the People Power Party. Both have been criticized for negative campaigning and for not presenting long-term visions on how to lead South Korea. Lee is a former governor of the populous Gyeonggi province that surrounds Seoul, while Yoon is a former prosecutor general who entered party politics last year. ___,WHO CAN VOTE,About 44 million South Korean nationals aged 18 or older are eligible to vote, out of the country's population of about 52 million people. About 16 million of them already cast ballots during early voting last week. Separately, about 161,820 voters who are living abroad also already cast ballots at polling booths established at South Korean diplomatic facilities. Tens of thousands of others on remote islands, at nursing homes or on ships have been voting by mail or fax. On Wednesday, polling stations are open from 6 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Also Read: Wildfire in South Korea torches 159 homes, displaces more than 6,200,___,MAIN ISSUES,Lee and Yoon have been bickering over North Korea's advancing nuclear arsenal and an intensifying U.S.-China rivalry. Lee, who has often expressed nationalistic views, hopes to win exemptions from U.N. sanctions against North Korea to revive stalled inter-Korean economic cooperation projects. He also believes Seoul could act as a mediator between Washington and Pyongyang to revive dormant nuclear diplomacy. Yoon says he would seek a stronger U.S. security commitment to deter North Korean aggression. He wants to launch preemptive strikes on the North if it displays signs of attack. While Lee favors a balancing act between Washington and Beijing — Seoul's chief security ally and its biggest trading partner, respectively — Yoon has made it clear that a boosted alliance with the United States would be the center of his foreign policy. Both have promised to offer economic relief to small business owners hit by pandemic-related restrictions, provide millions of public housing units throughout the country and to create more jobs. ___,SCANDALS,The mudslinging between Lee and Yoon involves plenty of bizarre accusations targeting the candidates and their families. Yoon's wife was forced to apologize over suspicions that she falsified her work experience when applying for teaching jobs at colleges. Lee's wife also apologized over allegations that she privately used official funds and made public servants do her personal errands while her husband served as a Gyeonggi governor. Yoon has attacked Lee over allegations that Lee is a central figure in a corrupt property development project launched in the city of Seongnam when he was mayor there. Lee and his allies have tried to link Yoon to that scandal and also accused the opposition candidate and his wife of having depended on shamanism, an ancient religious belief, too much. ___,VIRUS FEARS,Wednesday's vote will take place as coronavirus infections surge. Virus patients and others placed in quarantine are allowed to cast ballots when regular voting closes at 6 p.m. They are asked to vote at designated polling booths, while election workers will be equipped with gloves, masks, face screens and protective suits.

Also Read | Donald Trump took classified information from White House to Florida: US National Archives,At CPAC on Saturday, he defended himself by saying, The problem is not that Putin is smart – which of course, he’s smart – but the real problem is that our leaders are dumb. They’ve so far allowed him to get away with this travesty and an assault on humanity. So sad. Putin is playing Biden like a drum and it’s not a pretty thing as somebody that loves our country to watch, the former President added. ,Notably, the White House had responded to Trump's earlier statements in favour of Putin, saying that the Joe Biden administration did not seek advice from those heaping praises on Putin. ,Trump, in a separate statement, had argued that the Ukraine crisis could have been averted altogether if it had been properly handled by President Joe Biden, who defeated him in the 2020 election. Under Bush, Russia invaded Georgia. Under Obama, Russia took Crimea. Under Biden, Russia invaded Ukraine. I stand as the only president of the 21st century on whose watch Russia did not invade another country, the Republican said during the 85-minute speech at CPAC.","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":"28.5384","longitude":"-81.3789","name":"Orlando, FL, USA","city":"Florida"},"keywords":"['Donald Trump', ' USA', ' Russia Ukraine', ' Donald Trump Russia', ' USA Russia', ' Russia invasion', ' Donald Trump Vladimir Putin', ' Trump and Putin']","originalPublishedOn":"2022-02-27T14:15:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"4nZpStoac4Vg","slug":"english/germany-to-provide-ukraine-with-anti-tank-weapon-missiles","slugV2":"usa/germany-to-provide-ukraine-with-anti-tank-weapon-missiles-143319/","title":"Germany to provide Ukraine with anti-tank weapon, missiles","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_yvJxhG53i.jpg","coverCaption":"Ukrainian servicemen sit atop armored personnel carriers driving on a road in the Donetsk region, eastern Ukraine on Thursday, February 24, 2022.

However, US President Joe Biden stated that the US had not independently validated Russia's allegation and that an invasion was still possible.

At the same time, Putin refused to commit to a complete troop withdrawal, stating that Russia's next steps in the standoff will be determined by how the situation develops. In remarks at the White House, Biden promised that the U.S. would continue to give diplomacy every chance” to prevent a Russian invasion, but he struck a skeptical tone about Moscow's intentions.

But let there be no doubt: If Russia commits this breach by invading Ukraine, responsible nations around the world will not hesitate to respond.

The United States and its European allies remained hesitant, saying they needed to see signs of a Russian retreat.

The US and its allies have flatly rejected those demands, but have offered to meet with Russia to discuss ways to strengthen European security.

Trump's lawyers have argued that any testimony they give could be used against them in a separate criminal investigation overseen by the Manhattan district attorney's office, which resulted in tax fraud charges against the Trump Organization and Allen Weisselberg, the company's longtime chief financial officer, last year. Trump has given his Statement of Financial Condition — a yearly snapshot of his holdings — to banks to secure hundreds of millions of dollars worth of loans on properties such as a Wall Street office building and a Florida golf course, and to financial magazines to justify his place among the world's billionaires. In a court filing last month, James’ office detailed several instances in which Trump misstated the value of assets on financial statements given to banks. Deutsche Bank accepted Trump’s financial statements without objection in a deal for $300 million in loans for three of his properties and, in internal memoranda, emphasized Trump’s reported financial strength as a factor in lending to him, James’ office said. Also read: Donald Trump clogged toilets with secret presidential documents: Report,Another bank said it received financial statements in 2014 stating Trump had a net worth of $5.8 billion and liquidity of $302 million. A bank official involved in that deal told James’ office that if he were aware of misstatements on Trump’s statement of financial condition, he would have killed the deal. James office said its investigation started after Trump's former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, told Congress in 2019 that Trump had a history of misrepresenting the value of assets to gain favorable loan terms and tax benefits. The House Committee on Oversight and Reform received copies of three of Trump's financial statements from Cohen. Trump allegedly made the statements to Deutsche Bank in order to obtain a loan to purchase the NFL's Buffalo Bills and to Forbes magazine in order to legitimise his claim to a spot on the magazine's list of the world's wealthiest people, according to Cohen. Cohen was sentenced to federal prison in 2018 after pleading guilty to tax crimes, lying to Congress, and campaign finance violations, including his involvement in organising payments to two women to keep them quiet about Trump's alleged relationships. Trump's lawyers have portrayed Cohen as having a vendetta against Trump and said in a recent court filing that it “stretches all credibility to believe that” James' office put “any legitimate stock in his testimony. James' office responded Monday that not only did it rely on Cohen's testimony, but that his testimony is “vindicated by the evidence obtained to date and Mazars’s notification that those statements should not be relied upon.”(with inputs from AP)","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":"40.7128","longitude":"-74.006","name":"New York, NY, USA","city":"New York City"},"keywords":"['Trump Organization', 'Mazars LLP', 'Letitia James', 'New York Attorney General', 'Donald Trump', 'accounting firm', 'documents', 'not reliable']","originalPublishedOn":"2022-02-15T07:00:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"1qYzYzBWFxyC","slug":"english/brazil-president-jair-bolsonaro-departs-for-russia-despite-objections","slugV2":"world/brazil-president-jair-bolsonaro-departs-for-russia-despite-objections-116027/","title":"Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro departs for Russia despite objections","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_VMI1Z5Nnt.jpg","coverCaption":"Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro (Photo Credit: AFP)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-02-15T04:27:05+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eBrazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro took off to Russia despite Western warnings the country could soon invade Ukraine\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIt frustrated those who have suggested he cancel the trip, including the U.S. government and members of his own Cabinet\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eThe trip was planned well before the Ukraine crisis arose and Bolsonaro’s focus is bilateral trade\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\\\":1644879426048,\\\"strCount\\\":4270,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"The plane of Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro took off Monday evening headed to Russia despite Western warnings the country could soon invade Ukraine — frustrating those who have suggested he cancel the trip, including the U.S. government and members of his own Cabinet.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"The trip was planned well before the Ukraine crisis arose and Bolsonaro’s focus is bilateral trade; Russia is a key source of fertilizers for South America’s agricultural powerhouse.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Also read:\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/usa/ukraine-president-volodymyr-zelenskyy-hes-been-told-russia-will-attack-wednesday-february-16-477611/\\\\\\\"\u003eRussia will attack on Wednesday, February 16: Ukraine President\u003c/a\u003e\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"But even some of his allies fear Bolsonaro could make damaging comments on the crisis or that his presence could be seen as tacit support for a Russian invasion of its neighbor.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Two top officials from Brazil’s Foreign Ministry told The Associated Press that they have received messages from U.S. officials saying the trip’s timing is inopportune and conveys Brazilian indifference to threats of invasion.
