Belgien macht Atomausstieg rückgängig
Belgien macht den 2003 beschlossenen Ausstieg aus der Atomkraft rückgängig - und will sogar neue Meiler bauen. Begründet wird das mit der Sorge um eine sichere Energieversorgung, auch wegen Russlands Krieg gegen die Ukraine.
The Canal at ’s-Graveland, Pieter Gerardus van Os, 1818
In 1817 the Amsterdam merchant Herman Waller com-missioned Van Os to paint two prospects of the village of ’s-Graveland, where Waller had a country house. Van Os painted this scene either from a window in Waller’s house or from the local inn. This high vantage point afforded an unusual perspective. The diagonal view of the ’s-Graveland canal also includes the garden, with a gardener and two dogs.
Gift of F.G. Waller, Amsterdam

Dozens of white South Africans have arrived in the US, where they'll be granted refugee status as victims of “racial discrimination.”
Meanwhile, white South Africans make up 8% of the country's population while owning nearly 75% of all private land.
This comes at a time when the Trump administration has ended Temporary Protected Status for refugees from active war zones like Afghanistan, Cameroon and Haiti.
