Day 52, US-Israel and Iran War: The US is keen on conducting a second round of negotiations with Iran in Islamabad, Pakistan. However, Iran didn’t lean forward to show its interest in having a talk with the US until now, stating that the US shifts goals and violates ceasefire obligations. #JDVance appears to be arriving again in Islamabad on Tuesday but is not confirmed yet! The 10-day ceasefire comes to an end on April 22, Wednesday. #iran #unitedstates #iranwar

undefined | Prepared for reduced mortgage rates - make demands on the bank by Sweden Herald Mortgage lenders’ borrowing costs are clearly falling after the recent cease‑fire agreement between Iran and the United States, prompting questions about whether banks will pass those savings on to borrowers. Consumer‑protection economist Moa Langemark of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority urges customers to demand lower mortgage rates, noting that banks typically aim to maximise profit and will only adjust rates if they feel pressure from the market and their clients. On Wednesday, longer‑term Swedish market interest rates slipped by roughly 0.10–0.20 percentage points, with shorter‑term rates also retreating. This decline follows a period earlier in the year when the war in the Middle East drove rates up, forcing lenders such as state mortgage bank SBAB to raise fixed‑mortgage rates. Now that financing costs are easing, Langemark expects banks to review their pricing and offer more competitive terms. Major lenders, including SEB, have said they are monitoring market developments and will announce any changes to mortgage or savings rates when decisions are made. For consumers, Langemark stresses the importance of vigilance and active comparison of offers. When interest rates fall, customers should check whether their bank is lagging behind competitors in lowering rates; if it is, switching to a lender with better terms may be advisable. She points out that banks have recorded historically high profits in recent quarters, indicating that many borrowers remain too passive, and encourages customers to question their banks and move on if the banks do not align their rates with prevailing market conditions.

undefined | A year after 'Liberation Day,' Trump's tariffs are hurting small businesses by Andrew Schneider A year after President Trump’s “Liberation Day” executive order imposed emergency tariffs on many of the United States’ biggest trading partners, small‑business owners across the country report that the steep duties are eroding profits and forcing them to raise prices. An analysis by the advocacy group We Pay the Tariffs shows the tariffs cost American firms about $151 billion in the year ending February 2025. Although the Supreme Court ruled the tariffs illegal under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and ordered refunds, the administration has yet to issue any, and new tariffs on steel, aluminum and pharmaceuticals have already been added. The impact is vivid in Houston’s Misfit Toys, a vintage‑toy shop that now has to pay dramatically higher costs for new, movie‑linked items that once sold for $25 but now cost $40‑$45. With big‑box retailers able to absorb the extra expense, the store is shifting to more collectible vintage pieces, yet its gross sales have risen while profits have fallen. Similar pressures affect other small firms: Houghton Horns in Fort Worth, Texas, now raises instrument prices by about 20 percent and strips accessories to cover roughly 40 percent tariff rates, while Montana‑based FLATED, which imports PVC‑fabricated truck accessories from Vietnam, says onshoring is financially out of reach and that even domestically produced goods would still incur duties on imported raw materials. Because the tariffs are uncertain and can change without warning, many small businesses face hesitant customers and longer lead times. Federal Reserve economist Luis Torres notes the tariffs have driven up selling prices, squeezed margins and created a climate of uncertainty. Business owners such as Misfit Toys’ Daniel Rivera and FLATED CEO Ryan Guay express little hope that the promised refunds will ever arrive, and they warn that further tariff hikes could stall any plans for expansion or new product lines, leaving mom‑and‑pop shops scrambling to survive under a policy they view as both illegal and ineffective.

undefined | GM recalling more than 270,000 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles General Motors announced a safety recall of more than 270,000 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States because the rear‑view camera screen may display a distorted or blank image, which can reduce the driver’s view behind the vehicle and increase the risk of a crash. The recall stems from a problem identified by GM’s supplier in the bonding process used to assemble the camera housing. The mounting configuration of the Sharp Electronics camera on the Malibu can allow moisture to breach an insufficient adhesive bond, weakening the housing and potentially causing the rear‑view image to fail. The affected models span the 2023‑2025 model years. GM said it is unaware of any crashes or injuries linked to the issue. Dealerships will replace the rear‑view camera at no cost to owners. Notification letters are expected to begin mailing on May 18, and owners can also contact Chevrolet customer service at 1‑800‑222‑1020 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1‑888‑327‑4236 for more information.

Sicilianews24.it: Samoa Americane rifiutano la miniera oceanica, Washington chiede una risposta più rapida. Espansione dell’estrazione mineraria sottomarina: una minaccia per American Samoa Il governo degli Stati Uniti sta accelerando le procedure per concedere concessioni a grandi aziende per l’estrazione mineraria sottomarina nelle profondità dell’oceano, in particolare nel territorio di American Samoa. Questa azione ha destato preoccupazioni tra i leader locali, che hanno espresso opposizione sulla base di motivazioni culturali e ambientali. Malgrado queste voci di dissenso, l’agenzia federale incaricata della gestione delle concessioni ha continuato a procedere, minimizzando le preoccupazioni locali. In un recente editoriale, è stato affermato: “American Samoa non è un caso di prova; rischia di diventare il modello della concessione di licenze per l’estrazione mineraria sottomarina da parte del governo federale.” Questa affermazione solleva interrogativi fondamentali sulle politiche ambientali e sulla salvaguardia dei diritti delle comunità locali. L'articolo Samoa Americane rifiutano la miniera oceanica, Washington chiede una risposta più rapida. sembra essere il primo su Sicilianews24.it. American Samoa rejects the Ocean Mining, Washington demands a quicker response. Expansion of deep-sea mining: a threat to American Samoa. The United States government is accelerating procedures to grant concessions to large companies for deep-sea mining in the depths of the ocean, particularly in the territory of American Samoa. This action has raised concerns among local leaders, who have expressed opposition based on cultural and environmental grounds. Despite these voices of dissent, the federal agency responsible for managing concessions has continued to proceed, minimizing local concerns. In a recent editorial, it was stated: “American Samoa is not a test case; it risks becoming the model for federal government granting mining licenses for deep-sea mining.” This assertion raises fundamental questions about environmental policies and the protection of local community rights. The article American Samoa reject the ocean mine, Washington asks for a faster response appears to be the first on Sicilianews24.it. #AmericanSamoa #theOceanMining #Washington #UnitedStates #American #Samoa #first https://www.sicilianews24.it/samoa-americane-rifiutano-la-miniera-oceanica-washington-chiede-una-risposta-piu-rapida-824611.html

Il Tempo: Martin vince la Sprint del Gp delle Americhe davanti a Bagnaia AUSTIN (STATI UNITI) (ITALPRESS) – Jorge Martin (Aprilia) torna al successo in MotoGP, vincendo la Sprint Race del Gran Premio delle Americhe. Sul circuito di Austin, il pilota madrileno è riuscito a recuperare terreno su Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo), in fuga dal primo giro, finalizzando il sorpasso all'ultimo giro. Proprio Pecco chiude al secondo posto, davanti a Pedro Acosta (Ktm), terzo. E' stata una Sprint ricca di cadute illustri. Sono scivolati Marc Marquez (Ducati Lenovo) e Fabio Di Giannantonio nel corso del primo giro. Dopo aver forzato una staccata al limite, lo spagnolo ha perso l'avantreno della sua moto, coinvolgendo anche il rivale. A tre giri dal termine, invece, è caduto anche Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia), mentre si trovava al secondo posto. Il nuovo leader del campionato ora è Martin con un punto di vantaggio sul Bez. Enea Bastianini (Ktm Tech3) e Alex Marquez (Ducati Gresini) chiudono rispettivamente quarto e quinto. Nell'ordine, completano la top ten Luca Marini (Honda), Ai Ogura (Aprilia Trackhouse), Raul Fernandez (Aprilia Trackhouse), Johann Zarco (Honda LCR) e Fermin Aldeguer (Ducati Gresini).– Foto Ipa Agency –(ITALPRESS) Martin wins the Sprint of the Americas GP ahead of Bagnaia.

"In history's long arc, Canada is but a glimmer of a nation," writes Patrick Lennox for The Walrus. Here's his story about how the U.S. is attacking its northern neighbours on three fronts: Tariffs, propaganda and intimidation. "Our national unity is paramount to our survival. We are at war with the U.S.," writes Lennox, a former RCMP intelligence manager. https://flip.it/1oeQ5V #Canada #UnitedStates #Politics #TrumpAdministration

Quote from Al Mayadeen English (@MayadeenEnglish): Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani said that Donald Trump has fallen into what he described as a state of “hysteria” and is now acting erratically after the United States failed to achieve its objectives. He added that it would be better for Trump to admit his mistake and acknowledge that he had fallen into what he called an Israeli deception. Larijani also said the Americans have reached the end of the road, stressing that despite the bombardment, they have not achieved their goals and that Iran will not leave them unchallenged. He further warned that the United States must realize it no longer has the right to attack Iran and should understand the consequences of its arrogance. He added that Iran’s missile stockpiles remain fully intact and that the country is acting with wisdom and careful planning. #Iran #Tehran #UnitedStates #Trump #Gulf #News #AlMayadeen #Israel #Iran #Trump #Tehran
