I received a report from our delegation on their meeting with the American team in Saudi Arabia. The discussion lasted most of the day and was good and constructive—our teams were able to discuss many important details. Our position remains absolutely clear: Ukraine has been seeking peace from the very first second of this war, and we want to do everything to achieve it as soon as possible and in a reliable way—so that war does not return. At this meeting with the Americans, Ukraine proposed three key points: silence in the skies—stopping missile strikes, bombs, and long-range drone attacks; silence at sea; real confidence-building measures in this whole situation, in which diplomacy is ongoing, which primarily means the release of prisoners of war and detainees—both military and civilian—and the return of Ukrainian children who were forcibly transferred to Russia. The American side understands our arguments and considers our proposals. I am grateful to President Trump for the constructive conversation between our teams. During today’s talks, the U.S. side proposed taking an even bigger first step—a 30-day full interim ceasefire, not only stopping missile, drone, and bomb attacks, not only in the Black Sea, but also along the entire front line. Ukraine is ready to accept this proposal—we see it as a positive step and are ready to take it. Now, it is up to the United States to convince Russia to do the same. If Russia agrees, the ceasefire will take effect immediately.

Republican supporters who hold the principles, ideals, and values of conservatism sacred must be both disappointed and horrified at the destruction that Trump has caused their once proud party. 💙💙💙

Many activities that help us ACQUIRE (absorb) language are activities many of us like to do, e.g. read for pleasure. But not many of us like studying grammar, (“LEARNING”) & it results in knowledge that hard to understand & use.

We need to get rid of the idea that everyone in teaching should be climbing the leadership ladder. Some people are really happy teaching. Some are really happy as middle leaders. Happy people are the best people to work with.

This is Elizabeth El-Nakla. She is my mother-in-law. A retired nurse from Dundee, Scotland. She, like the vast majority of people in Gaza, has nothing to do with Hamas. She has been told to leave Gaza but, like the rest of the population, is trapped with nowhere to go.

Improv isn’t only for actors, it’s for all of us! We all improvise every day. In job interviews. While solving problems at work. When we comfort a friend. Talk to a stranger. When we parent. Teach. Fall in love…. improv is training for being human.

Estamos viviendo días de mucho frío. Por eso les pido, por favor, que si ven a alguien en situación de calle llamen al 108 para que un equipo de la Ciudad pueda acercarse y ofrecerle ir a un centro de inclusión, en donde va a tener resguardo y contención.

- 15.000 chicos y chicas abandonaron o están en riesgo de abandono. - En la secundaria la mitad de los chicos y chicas estaba en condiciones de repetir. - Chicos y chicas de primer ciclo de primaria no diferencian letras de otros símbolos y no pueden escribir su nombre.

Es inexplicable que haya sido así, más cuando veníamos teniendo reuniones constantes para hablar de las medidas para frenar la suba de casos. Una pandemia como esta no admite la posibilidad de que un Presidente no coordine las acciones con un jefe de Gobierno o un Gobernador.
