bar Barclays on oil - current market dynamics relatively stable, doesn't foresee major shifts By www.forexlive.com Published On :: Tue, 12 Nov 2024 23:31:08 GMT Barclays has issued a note suggesting that the re-election of Trump is unlikely to significantly impact oil market fundamentals in the near term. The bank believes that current market dynamics are relatively stable and does not foresee major shifts tied to potential changes in U.S. leadership. Barclays is recommending a long position on December 2025 Brent call spreads. The bank notes that volatility has recently decreased, and it perceives market sentiment as overly focused on downside risks, or the "left tail." In contrast, Barclays believes the risks are more balanced, especially in light of recent improvements in oil market fundamentals and the possibility of a more confrontational geopolitical landscape.

bar It's a bare economic calendar for the session ahead By www.forexlive.com Published On :: Wed, 13 Nov 2024 06:21:34 GMT European trading will be a bit of a snoozer as such with a lack of headlines. But perhaps we might get some interesting market moves to talk about in the run up to the US CPI report. USD/JPY is now inching just above 155.00 for the first time since end July while EUR/USD is looking heavy near the April low of 1.0601. Those will be two of the more interesting charts in play currently.Elsewhere, US futures are pointing lower with gold back up slightly just above $2,600 and Bitcoin is down to below $87,000 after briefly brushing up against the $90,000 mark overnight. So, there are some mixed moves in there for the time being.In terms of data releases, there's just the US MBA mortgage applications at 1200 GMT. With rates having shot higher post-election, that is likely to keep sentiment in a more dour spot after last week's report here.As for euro area releases, there's nothing on the agenda for today.

bar Assembly’s work on migration presented to OSCE ambassadors by Ad Hoc Committee Chair Lombardi at special Permanent Council By feeds.osce.org Published On :: Wed, 20 Jul 2016 17:01:42 +0000 VIENNA, 20 July 2016 – Presenting the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly’s work concerning the refugee and migrant crisis at a special meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council in Vienna today, Swiss parliamentarian Filippo Lombardi laid out the Assembly’s plan of action going forward, which includes monitoring the situation on the ground and developing policy recommendations for the OSCE and its participating States. The meeting was convened by the OSCE German Chairmanship to present and discuss the report by Amb. Claude Wild, Chair of the OSCE Informal Working Group Focusing on the Issue of Migration and Refugee Flows. The participants discussed in particular the importance of improving global migration governance and how the OSCE can lend its contribution to promoting regional implementation of a global migration governance architecture. Lombardi noted that the OSCE PA’s Ad Hoc Committee on Migration, which he chairs, has been active in three main areas, including by organizing field visits, strengthening co-operation with the OSCE and other international actors, and promoting discussions on the migration crisis within the OSCE PA. “The migration and refugee crisis remains high on the agenda of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly as highlighted by the importance accorded to this issue in the Tbilisi Declaration adopted at the OSCE PA Annual Session on 5 July,” Lombardi said. “Indeed, the various aspects of this complex issue are addressed in the resolutions of all three general committees as well as in a number of supplementary resolutions” adopted in Tbilisi, he added. Stressing the need for better communication strategies between governments and the public, Lombardi said that while media plays a fundamental role in shaping public opinion on migration, “political forces bear an equally important responsibility. “Governments, diplomats and parliamentarians must join forces to tackle the root causes of migration,” he said. Lombardi further highlighted a recent field visit to camps in Calais and Dunkirk, the Parliamentary Assembly’s contribution to the 27 June meeting of the Informal Working Group, which was addressed by five OSCE parliamentarians, and noted that the PA’s Ad Hoc Committee on Migration met officially for the first timeduring the OSCE PA Annual Session in Tbilisi on 3 July. In June, the OSCE PA’s then-human rights and humanitarian committee chair, Portuguese parliamentarian Isabel Santos, joined a delegation of the OSCE’s Special Representative and Co-ordinator for Combating Trafficking in Human Beings, Ambassador Madina Jarbussynova, for a visit to Lampedusa, Italy, to an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean Sea, and to a refugee reception centre in Catania. Migration will also occupy a prominent position in the discussions of the OSCE PA Autumn Meeting to be held in Skopje from 29 September to 2 October, Lombardi pointed out. Other than Lombardi’s presentation, today’s special meeting of the Permanent Council included a comprehensive report by Amb. Wild, who noted that addressing the migration crisis requires a multidimensional response based on protection, combating crime, border management, successful integration, and solidarity and partnerships. The OSCE has a number of comparative advantages when addressing migration and refugee flows and is thus uniquely positioned to address this crisis, he emphasized. Lombardi welcomed the priorities of the OSCE’s Informal Working Group and stressed that members of the PA’s Ad Hoc Committee have agreed to keep in mind the principles identified by this body in carrying out its work. The Permanent Council and the Ministerial Council are the primary decision-making bodies of the OSCE.

bar OSCE supports plea bargain training in Kazakhstan By feeds.osce.org Published On :: Mon, 20 Jun 2016 12:53:22 +0000 ASTANA, 20 June 2016 – An OSCE-supported training seminar for some 30 prosecutors and defence lawyers from different regions of Kazakhstan on plea bargaining and the role of procedural prosecutors in criminal procedure began today in Astana. During the three-day seminar the participants will learn about issues related to the interpretation and application of the Criminal Procedure Code’s relevant provisions by legal professionals. International experts from the United States and Ukraine will familiarize participants with best practices in using plea bargaining in criminal proceedings and the role of prosecutors in preliminary investigation. Intensive discussions and mock exercises are planned to enhance comprehension and practical skills. The recent introduction of the concepts of plea bargaining and procedural prosecutors into the new Code aims to simplify criminal procedure and contribute to the development of a more effective and cost-efficient criminal justice system in Kazakhstan. These concepts have been in place since the Code entered into force in January 2015. “It is important to ensure sufficient balance between simplified criminal procedure, cost-efficiency and the procedural rights of participants,” said Colin McCullough, Political Officer at the OSCE Programme Office in Astana. “This is predicated upon a high level of professionalism of the investigative bodies, adequate legal literacy of the general population and the absence of corruption.” Nail Akhmetzakirov, the Vice-Rector of the Law Enforcement Academy under the Prosecutor General’s Office, said: “The purpose of a plea agreement is the simplification of criminal proceedings, with omitting a number of investigative actions and the entire trial process. This requires a high professional level of the defender and the prosecutor.” The event was jointly organized by the OSCE Programme Office in Astana and the Law Enforcement Academy, as part of the Programme Office’s long-term activities to support criminal justice sector reform in Kazakhstan.Related StoriesOSCE Programme Office supports training for defence lawyers in Kazakhstan on the new criminal procedure legislationOSCE supports training seminar on torture prevention in KazakhstanOSCE concludes series of training seminars on implementing the National Preventive Mechanism in Kazakhstan Full Article OSCE Programme Office in Astana Rule of law Central Asia Press release

bar BLU BARON By spyvibe.blogspot.com Published On :: Fri, 02 Aug 2024 16:18:00 +0000 New release: Imprint has announced a new Blu-ray set featuring theatrical cuts of the cult '60s ITC classic, The Baron! The series starred Steve Forrest and Sue Lloyd (The Ipcress File) and centered around an undercover agent posing in London as an antiques dealer. All of us have been hoping the Australian distributor would pick up this project after Network folded in the UK and here it is! Fans can now pre-order the set (currently at a discounted price). From the press release: "In 1966, ITC transformed four episodes from the series into two feature film versions: The Man in a Looking Glass and Mystery Island. Destined for European theatrical exhibition and having been shot on 35mm film, these two features have been restored and are presented in high-definition for the first time. Accompanying them are the four series episodes (Masquerade / The Killing and Storm Warning / The Island) which were the basis for the film versions, also in high-definition, and are presented in the original 4:3 aspect ratio. Included with The Baron – The Feature Films is SUE LLOYD at ITC.
