BTS ARMY Colombia expressed concern over publications that, according to them, used supposed complaints from the BTS team about the gastronomy of certain countries to foster comparisons and rivalries in the region. The group stated that, regardless of the truth of those claims, those who accessed private information or spaces should act responsibly and respect confidentiality. They also pointed out that gastronomy is part of the cultural identity of each country and that using it to discredit or confront nations is disrespectful. They added that those representing establishments, brands, or public platforms should consider the reach and impact of their words. BTS ARMY Colombia affirmed that BTS's tour in Latin America should serve to celebrate cultural diversity, not to fuel disputes about which country had offered a better experience. #RespetoCultural #BTSARMY #DiversidadCultural (translated)

There was another meeting, I believe initiated by Mário Lino, on the occasion of the global economic crisis of 2008, in which, under the guidance of the European Union, investments should be accelerated. And the minister, within his competencies, asked us to analyze the possibility of accelerating some investments, namely high-speed, the Beira Baixa Line... This analysis was made and the minister is likely to have asked the prime minister to meet technically with us and with engineer Carlos Fernandes. However, in the session this Thursday of the trial of Operation Marquês, at the Central Criminal Court of Lisbon, the former Secretary of State for Transport Ana Paula Vitorino — who held the position in José Sócrates' first government from 2005 to 2009 — refuted any instruction from the main defendant of the trial. #OperaçãoMarquês #Sócrates #AnaPaulaVitorino (translated)

MagistraThor stated that the members of the CGPJ José Antonio Montero, José Luis Costa, Pilar Jiménez, Eduardo Martínez Mediavilla, Gema Espinosa, José María Páez, Esther Rojo, Carlos Orga, Isabel Revuelta, and Alejandro Abascal had proposed to the plenary a statement regarding reports of possible acts of harassment, surveillance, or intimidation against Judge Beatriz Biedma and her surroundings. According to the author, the text expressed solidarity with Biedma without prejudging facts or responsibilities and defended judicial independence. MagistraThor pointed out that it had not been approved and argued that it aimed to show support for the judge and for the entire judicial career. He said he did not understand the opposition of the members whom he described as progressive nor, in his opinion, the CGPJ's renunciation of defending judicial independence. He added that a colleague had told him that they should still be thankful that a file had not been opened against Biedma. #IndependenciaJudicial #CGPJ #Derecho (translated)

Estefania Molina stated that Gabriel Rufián had received praise for years for being helpful to the interests of the PSOE and that, now that ERC was defending its own interests, he would be criticized and attacked. She also claimed that an alliance with Podemos made no sense because ERC was independence-minded, while Podemos was a Jacobin party that had questioned Catalan self-government during negotiations over immigration competencies. According to Molina, the criticisms were not related to those differences, but rather to the fact that Rufián had stopped being useful. #Política #Cataluña #ERC (translated)

I want to confirm the creation of the first tourism academy of the European Union. This will also benefit SMEs and the tourism ecosystem of the countries in the bloc. This was confirmed on Friday by the European Commissioner for Tourism, Apostolos Tzitzikostas, during the global summit of the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) being held in Valletta (Malta), in a context marked by the need to strengthen European tourism competitiveness. Vacant positions and the lack of skills are one of the biggest challenges facing the sector today. We want a better balance of visits between places and throughout the year. Tzitzikostas warned about the concentration of travel during certain periods and argued for the need to promote lesser-known destinations, encourage off-season travel, and favor longer stays. Resilience is not just about quickly recovering from impacts or crises. It is also about being able to absorb them. Tzitzikostas warned that the sector must prepare to face risks such as geopolitical tensions, climate change, trade uncertainty, and the shortage of professionals. #TurismoEU #AcademiaTurística #CompetitividadEuropea (translated)
