They will authorize Donald Trump to reactivate his Facebook and Instagram accounts

American tech Objectivecompany owner Facebook and Instagramannounced this Wednesday that it will restore the former president’s accounts in the coming weeks Donald Trumpsuspended after the storming of the Capitol in 2021 by a violent group of his followers.

In a statement, the company explains that it suspended Trump’s accounts two years ago because of some “extreme and very unusual circumstances”but he specified that the public “must be able to listen to what its politicians are saying” in order to “make informed decisions at the polls”.

Meta says it has included limits in its updated policy and that Trump’s accounts are reinstated after “civil protest-related suspensions,” so if they post content that violates their rules they could be suspended again for between a month and two years. .

In the first days of January, the company anticipated that it would make a decision. The decision is so relevant that the company has formed a special labor commission. The team includes staff from Meta’s public policy and communications, content policy, and security and integrity departments.

The person charged with overseeing the decision will be former UK deputy prime minister and chairman of global affairs at Meta, Nick Clegg.

“We believe that any private company, and that regardless of their personal views on Donald Trump, should exercise great consideration when seeking to silence politicians and other voices,” Clegg said on the matter in October last year.

Less than a year ago, Trump launched his own social network: “Social Truth”. In February of last year, the network began its phased rollout, but thousands of casual users faced technical issues or were placed on a waitlist on Monday due to what the app called “high demand.” .

This mobile application was at the top of the most downloaded applications in the US Apple online store. A few hours after the launch of “Social Truth” on the “App Store”, numerous users, including journalists from the AFP extensionHowever, they have directly verified that they still cannot access the brand new social network.

The following message appeared on the screen of some mobile phones: “Due to popular demand, we have placed you on a waiting list. We love you and to us you are not just a number”.

Trump, a Twitter amnesty he didn’t use

Late last year, Twitter-owner Elon Musk promised he would grant “amnesty” to suspended accounts, which online security experts frown upon, as they predict it will “spur a rise in harassment, hate speech and disinformation”.

The new owner of Twitter announced this Thursday after conducting a survey on his account of that social network, on the restoration of users who “have not broken the law or dealt with egregious spam”, yes, it was just over 72% .

“The people have spoken. Amnesty starts next week. Vox Populi, Vox Dei,” Musk tweeted using a Latin phrase meaning “the voice of the people is the voice of God.”

Musk used the same phrase after posting a similar poll last weekend before reinstating former US President Donald Trump’s account, which Twitter shut down for encouraging an insurrection on Capitol Hill on January 6, 2021. Trump said you won’t be on Twitter again, but you haven’t deleted your account.

Sentences of up to 13 years in prison for 15 protesters in Cuba

Sentences of up to 13 years in prison for 15 protesters in Cuba

A Havana court sentenced 15 protesters on July 11, 2021 (11J) to sentences ranging from four years of “limited freedom” to 13 years in prison, the largest protests in decades.

According to the sentence, dated January 23 and to which EFE had access this Wednesday, the Provincial People’s Court of Havana convicted them of “sedition”, but handed down sentences mostly lower than those requested by the Prosecutor’s Office.

The sentence – which is not final and therefore still open to appeal – corresponds to a trial held in November past and which has attracted great media attention on the island.

Among those tried was Jonathan Torres, a young man who was 17 at the time of the events (the only minor in this trial). The minimum criminal age in Cuba is 16 years.

He is one of 55 people between the ages of 16 and 17 who have faced criminal proceedings for the events of 11J, as confirmed by the Attorney General of Cuba.

In Torres’ case, the court sentenced him to four years of “limited liberty” (when the prosecution had requested five). This means that He will not enter prison, but his movements will be monitored by a judge.

Similarly, there are three sanctioned with correctional labor without internment and three others with internment.

In statements to EFE, Orlando Ramírez, husband of Torres’ mother, described the trial as a “spectacle” and, while considering the sentence a “victory”, added that “in reality (the trial against the stepson) is a mistake because he did nothing”.

In total, 75 cumulative years in prison were served. for the protesters.

The accusation

The court considered proven facts that the convicts mobilized in the municipality of Arroyo Naranjo, Havana, with “the aim of generating the destabilization of the social and political order established in the Republic of Cuba”.

They were also accused of throwing stones and shouting slogans against the country’s president, Miguel Díaz-Canel.

However, according to the scripture, at least three of the defendants denied having been present during the events.

Two of the defendants’ mothers were called to testify but declined.

The trial was held with witnesses presented by the prosecutor’s office – mostly policemen – who were censored for defenses due to their hesitations and changes in testimony, as EFE was able to learn at the time through a source who was inside the room.

Likewise, during the trial the charge of assault, public disorder, contempt and incitement to crime was changed to the crime of sedition.

This change has caused discomfort among at least two of the lawyers according to the same source, because this offense implies the intention to destabilize the state order, in accordance with the penal code.

As they claimed, this is not supported because the 15 participated in a demonstration that took place far from the seats of Cuban state power.

On one of the days of the trial, two of the lawyers criticized the proceedings against the 11J protesters, as EFE learned.

One of them said: “It’s time for the country to start healing its wounds, it’s time for the country to sit down and talk, it’s time for the country to create public spaces so that all those people who don’t think the same way can express themselves safely and legally without being charged with a crime”.

Cuba’s Justice Minister, Óscar Silvera, held a meeting with European Union (EU) ambassadors last week where the protesters’ pardons were lifted, according to reports

Until now about 700 sentences were handed down, according to the registry kept by organizations such as Justicia 11J and Cubalex. Of these cases, some penalties go up to 30 years in prison for the crime of sedition.

They expect increases in the price of meat after increases in slaughterhouses

They expect increases in the price of meat after increases in slaughterhouses

The price of beef on the counters could show increases of between 300 and 400 pesos per kilo in the coming days, due to an increase that is already being observed in the value of livestock for slaughter, according to various sources in the meat supply chain.

In recent days, in the market of the Cañuelas hacienda, there were some jump up to 30 percent in the price of some categories, especially for animals of good quality and finish, which is not what is abundant at the moment. On Wednesday morning, steers and heifers reached current prices of 450 pesos per kilo and ceilings of 465, while steers reached current prices of 420 pesos.

This is a rebound that everyone in the sector was already expecting, given that the price of fat farms and of meat on the counter for a year have been losing ground against inflation. Over the course of 2022, according to the Beef Promotion Institute (IPCVA), the average price of meat increased by 42% while inflation for food was 94%. For its part, standing farms have lost 40% of their real value over the past eight months. The explanation of this phenomenon given by the sector is this due to the effect of the drought, producers have had to remove the animals from their fields and an oversupply was generated. Furthermore, in the last few months of 2022, the foreign market was affected by the restrictions imposed by China due to the Covid outbreaks, so demand weakened.

The first factor is still in force, despite the rains of the weekend, the fields have little grass and the trucks of the cages continue to arrive in droves to the markets and fairs of the country. But in the second aspect important changes can be observed which may partly explain the expected treasury rebound. As analyst Ignacio Iriarte explained, after the abolition of health restrictions China is already demanding large quantities of meat again, and the rest of the international market is reacting accordingly. Prices of Hilton shares have increased 15% in the last month and are expected to reach $11,000-12,000 a ton in the near term.

Thus, the exporters, who never left, returned to the local beef market, which despite the abundance of supply is under pressure.

It will be necessary to closely follow the labels in the gondola to see if this jump in the price on the farm is transferred proportionally to the price to the public, and if the public is able to validate new prices or if the consumption of red meat falls once again, which after having touched plans of 47 kilos per year per capita in mid-2022, it was recovering.

Nicolás Maduro explained his absence in Celac: “It was because of the Macrista mice, Patricia Bullrich and the judicial party”

He had given his official apology in a video to the presidents and foreign ministers of Latin America who attended CELAC, but the president of Venezuela, Niccolo Maduro He revealed in an audio the real argument of his absence in Buenos Aires: “It was because of the rats Macrista, Patricia Bullrich and the judicial party“.

“If I have decided not to go, it is because of very sensitive information,” begins the audio of Maduro sending a person named Ernesto to send it to political scientist Atilio Borón, who posted it on his social networks.

“It wasn’t the simple provocation of a march, it was something more dense coordinated by the US Embassy with Macrism ratsPatricia Bullrich and the judicial party,” Maduro says in a one minute and twenty second audio clip.

“It was a little thicker. Confirmed”, adds the Venezuelan president, who They have already come out to answer from Together for Change.

In his message, Maduro stresses that the information he has obtained “it implied entering combat in a territory other than that of Venezuela“.

“It implies a great provocation and a great aggression, I would not have done otherwise. The decision that was made was the right one, effectively evaluating all the elements we had from intelligence sources that have never let us down. Intelligence sources of the highest level, I can’t even suggest where the source is from, but they are very powerful, ”Maduro says in the story about him.

Officially, before the Latin American leaders, Maduro had given another explanation.

“Reasons beyond our control, permanent conspiracies, permanent persecutions, permanent threats, calculated ambushes, made me take the most correct and just decision not to fall into the provocations that tried to sully this long-awaited moment, so special for Latin America and the Caribbean”, acknowledged the Venezuelan leader.

When the Venezuelan government confirmed that Maduro would not travel to Argentina for the CELAC summit, Patricia Bullrich, who had denounced him, celebrated online.

“Democracy has won! We stopped Maduro’s drug trafficker and he won’t come to Argentina. I celebrate how thousands of Venezuelans, who had to emigrate to their homeland expelled for socialist delirium, have avoided the offense of seeing the government welcome this dictator with honors “, remarked Bullrich, who lunched with Mauricio Macri on Tuesday at Villa La Angostura, Neuquén.

Together for Change came out to defend Patricia Bullrich

One of the first to respond to Nicolás Maduro was the PRO deputy, Christian Ritondo: “Maduro is a criminal and a coward who had to give in to pressure from good Argentines. A dictator’s insults are a compliment to us who defend democracy and freedom.”

“The Bullrich has courage. Maduro doesn’t. This is how we will face all those who believe they are untouchable. Firmly and without fear,” he remarked joaquin de la torreprovincial senator of Together for Change in Buenos Aires and one of the pre-candidates for governor of Buenos Aires for that space.

The blue dollar stretches to $383 and sets a new record: why can’t they stop it

The blue dollar stretches to 3 and sets a new record: why can’t they stop it

The blue dollar was up another two pesos this Wednesday and stretched to $383. With this price is tied with the Qatari dollar, the one that applies to expenses abroad exceeding 300 US dollars a month, which until now were the most expensive on the market.

In a market with limited supply and limited demand, informal has started the year with momentum: has already increased by 10.7% and reached the highest nominal price recorded to date.

After the November-December foreign exchange summer, when the alternative dollars hardly budged, the blue woke up and soared at a rate that practically doubled the expected inflation for the month.

The reasons for this leap are linked to the greater demand of tourists traveling abroad and who prefer to bring tickets, while foreigners arriving in Argentina no longer find it so attractive to change their dollars at small trees.

Since mid-December, the Foreigner Dollar has been in effect, allowing visitors to pay with a card and receive a similar price to the MEP Dollar, found in $352.

The leap into the blue is also motivated by the evolution of inflation. After the slowdown in November and December, the record returned to close to 6% in January with no signs of a turning point in the short term.

With blue at $383, the interchange gap with the wholesaler reaches 107%. The government’s goal is to bring this gap below 100%, as happened in December.

For his part, the MEP closed $352down 0.5%, while cash with cash closed at $366, which also marks a nominal record.

Is there room to continue climbing? “The MEP and CCL dollar is expected to be worth over $400 today,” says the economist Salvador Di Stéfano. “The dollar is an asset in this economy and it is clear that to date it has risen less than inflation”.

The prospect of fewer dollars coming in this year due to drought, coupled with an appetite for election-year dollarization, rising inflation, and the chances that government spending will pick up in the middle of the campaign the government is missing out on opportunities to disarm expectations and drop “free” dollars.

“Argentina has a solvency problem and the government is wrong in believing that it has a liquidity problem,” summarizes Di Stéfano.

The Central Bank had to come out again to sell dollars on this wheel. This time he lost $56 million. In the first fortnight of the month, the Centrale accumulated a purchase balance of 285 million dollars. But in the second fortnight the balance was reversed and now that balance exists reduced to $27 million.

Country risk rose by 0.5% to 1834 basis points, while Argentine bonds had a negative turn with declines of around 0.5%. Merval was up 4.3% and accumulates a 28.7% advance for the month.
