No Fast Track EU Membership for Ukraine – France

Ukraine should not expect a fast track to EU membership despite there being a consensus on granting it candidate status, French Secretary of State for European Affairs Clement Beaune has cautioned.

Speaking with the host of France’s Europe 1 radio station Wednesday, Beaune said there was “total consensus” among EU members that Ukraine is eligible to become a candidate nation. The official added that he expected this to be formally “confirmed on Thursday and Friday.”

Beaune certainly seems to have a point, as evidenced by the cases of Turkey and Montenegro, which received the status in 1999 and 2012 respectively and have still not joined the bloc.

Thousands of UK Gay/Bi Men to Be Offered Monkeypox Vaccine

UK health authorities have decided to extend monkeypox vaccines from case contacts to tens of 1000s of gay and bisexual men, who they deem most at risk of contracting the virus.

Imvanex vaccine will be offered to those with “a recent history of multiple partners, participating in group sex, attending sex on premises venues or a “proxy marker” such as recent bacterial sexually transmitted infection in the past year.”

Monkeypox is not currently defined as a sexually transmitted disease but can be passed on by intimate contact, with data indicating a disproportionate number of cases in men who’ve had sex with multiple male partners.

RT World News (RSS)

Tourist activities and climate change threaten the current site of the base for climbing the world’s tallest peak

Nepal is considering moving the base camp for Mount Everest some 200 to 400 meters south, Department of Tourism Director-General Taranath Adhikari told CNN on Wednesday. He explained that the nearby Khumbu glacier’s melting – as well as rampant erosion caused by tourist activity – had made the current location unstable.

“It is basically about adapting to the changes we are seeing at the base camp and it has become essential for the sustainability of the mountaineering business itself,” Adhikari told the BBC...

The MintPress podcast “The Watchdog,” hosted by British-Iraqi hip hop artist Lowkey, closely examines organizations about which it is in the public interest to know – including intelligence, lobby, and special interest groups influencing policies that infringe on free speech and target dissent. The Watchdog goes against the grain by casting a light on stories largely ignored by the mainstream, corporate media.
