Venezuela’s interim President Delcy Rodriguez signed an oil-sector memorandum of understanding with French energy giant TotalEnergies on September 19.

Italian PM Meloni:

If there is just one child in a class who does not understand Italian, that child will probably manage, with classmates and teachers, to learn the language and integrate quickly.

But if the children who do not understand the language of the lesson become many, or even become the majority, that is no longer integration. That is abandonment.

And the only thing those children risk learning is marginalization.

Italian PM Meloni:

It cannot happen — it cannot happen — that in an Italian classroom, Italian children are the ones who feel pushed into a corner because they have become the minority. That cannot happen.

Calling all of this "integration" is another lie — a convenient lie for those who live by ideology, for those who lecture us from their drawing rooms and then send their own children to schools where this problem does not exist.

Not for us. For us, anyone who comes to Italy and wants to build their future here must learn our language, know our culture and respect our rules.

That is the only serious way to welcome people.

Italian PM Meloni:

The proposed measure will introduce an obligation for the parents of foreign students with serious school-integration problems to learn Italian, and it will introduce a ban on the burqa and niqab at school.

In Italy, nobody, in the name of a real or supposed tradition, can decide that a young woman must hide herself.

Equality between men and women is not negotiable. It is not negotiable on our streets and it is not negotiable in our schools.

Trump:

At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage.

There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World. Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Estonia says it is preparing for possible security risks if Russia declares a general mobilization, including the option of immediately closing its border.

Prime Minister Kristen Michal said Russia may eventually need further measures to sustain the war, claiming “30,000 to 40,000 men are killed or wounded every month.”

If mobilization changes Estonia’s threat assessment, Michal said: “The border can also be closed immediately.” He added that Estonia has the capability to shut border crossings “very quickly.”
