Babiš předběhne Zemana. Trump ho i s Monikou pozval v březnu do Bílého domu, potvrdil Washington - Duration: 5:50.

Pozvání potvrdil i premiér Babiš: „Mohu potvrdit, že jsem dostal pozvání do Bílého domu na 7

března. Je to vyvrcholení našich vztahů se Spojenými státy. Tento rok si připomínáme 20 let vstupu do NATO

Naše vztahy byly poslední dobu velice intenzivní. Byl tady Paul Ryan, byl tady ministr energetiky, ministr obrany

" Babiš uvedl, že se do Bílého domu těší. „Musím se na to dobře připravit, protože je to pro Českou republiku velice důležitá schůzka

Bude tam určitě strašně moc témat, které bych chtěl s panem prezidentem probrat. Nejenom naše vztahy ekonomické nebo v rámci NATO, ale je to i o vztazích s Evropskou unií," řekl Babiš

Babiš uvedl, že se o jeho návštěvě v Bílém domě začalo mluvit loni v březnu, když Česko navštívil tehdejší předseda Sněmovny reprezentantů Paul Ryan

Návštěva se podle něj letos uskuteční díky tomu, že si Česko připomíná 30 let od sametové revoluce a 20 let od vstupu do NATO

Premiér Babiš se dnes vrací z návštěvy Izraele, do Bílého domu by se tak měl podívat dříve, než by se to mohlo stát v případě prezidenta Miloše Zemana, který dle svých slov dostal pozvání telefonicky již v minulosti, ale k oficiálnímu dojednání termínu dodnes nedošlo

Babiš se o pozvání nicméně údajně nesnažil. „Slovo ‚usilovat' bych nepoužíval, jedu tam jako zástupce České republiky, nebyla tady žádná soutěž mezi mnou a prezidentem

Myslím si, že to pozvání jsem dostal, protože prezident Trump má výkonnou moc – a v rámci našeho politického uspořádání je vkládána moc do rukou vlády

Takže tady nebyla žádná soutěž, ani se nedá říct, že bych o to usiloval. Byly rozhovory, dlouho se o tom spekulovalo, jsem rád, že se to potvrdilo, a myslím, že tam budu reprezentovat všechny naše občany

Není to moje osobní záležitost," řekl. I'm pleased to report that President Trump has extended an official invitation to Prime Minister @AndrejBabis to visit Washington on March 7 as a symbol of our strong bilateral relationship

A White House announcement is forthcoming soon. @strakovka — Ambassador King (@USAmbPrague) 20

února 2019 O pozvání Babiše do Bílého domu chtěl při své návštěvě USA usilovat ministr zahraničí Tomáš Petříček (ČSSD), který do Washingtonu odletěl ve středu

Petříček chtěl jednat i o možnosti pozvání pro Zemana. Že má otevřenější dveře do Bílého domu spíše Babiš než Zeman, na to upozorňoval Petříček v úterý

V USA se má sejít rovněž se svým protějškem Mikem Pompeem. „Já jsem přesvědčen, že je reálné, že se podaří domluvit schůzku na té nejvyšší úrovni

Mám signály, že tam ze strany amerických partnerů je zájem. Budu o tom hovořit s ministrem Pompeem tento týden v pátek," řekl Petříček

„Budu apelovat na americkou stranu, aby to byla schůzka na nejvyšší úrovni, je to na americké straně, koho pozvou do Bílého domu," doplnil

Zeman se v poslední době mj. zastával čínské společnosti Huawei, která se topí ve velkých problémech i v USA

Sám Petříček nechce řešit za Atlantikem pouze Huawei. „Budu s americkými protějšky řešit kybernetickou bezpečnost obecněji

Myslím, že to není jen o společnosti Huawei, je to o tom, jak chceme dlouhodobě zajistit ochranu naší kritické infrastruktury, našich komunikačních systémů

Pro nás je důležité, abychom hledali společné řešení, společnou strategii v rámci Evropské unie, potažmo i v NATO," uvedl ministr zahraničí před odletem do USA

US teen who faced off with Native American sues Washington Post News Al Jazeera - Duration: 2:57.

US teen who faced off with Native American sues Washington Post News Al Jazeera

Lawyers of Nicholas Sandmann file dollar 250m lawsuit against the Washington Post, claiming he was wrongfully targeted.

A US high school student from Kentucky has sued the Washington Post for defamation, claiming the newspaper falsely accused him of racist acts and instigating a confrontation with a Native American activist at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington.

The lawyers for 16 year old Nicholas Sandmann, the Covington Catholic high school junior who faced off with Omaha Nation elder Nathan Phillips on the steps of the memorial last month, have filed a dollar 250m lawsuit against the newspaper.

"This is only the beginning," said the lawyers, Lin Wood and Todd McMurtry, on their firms website, noting that it was the "first lawsuit" on Sandmanns behalf.

The suit was filed in US District Court in Kentucky, Reuters news agency reported, and it states that the sum which is for "compensatory and punitive damages" is what Amazon.com founder and the worlds richest man Jeff Bezos paid to buy the newspaper.

The lawsuit claims that the newspaper "wrongfully targeted and bullied" the teen to advance its bias against President because Sandmann is a white Catholic who wore a Make America Great Again cap on a school field trip to the "March for Life" anti abortion rally in Washington on January 18.

The Washington Posts Vice President for Communications, Kristine Coratti Kelly, said: "We are reviewing a copy of the lawsuit and we plan to mount a vigorous defence."

In a photo from the incident that went viral, Sandmann is seen standing face to face with Native American activist Phillips. The teenager stares smiling at him, while Phillips sings and plays his drum.

The incident sparked outrage on social media.

A private investigation firm retained by Covington Diocese, the Catholic high school in Park Hills, Kentucky, attended by Sandmann, found in a report released last week no evidence the teenagers provoked a confrontation.

The students were met at the Lincoln Memorial by offensive statements from members of the Black Hebrew Israelites, the report said.

The investigation also determined that the students did not direct any racist or offensive comments towards Phillips although several performed a "tomahawk chop" to the beat of his drum.

The tomahawk chop is an arm movement most popularly used by fans of several baseball and football clubs.

The action, considered to be offensive to Native Americans, involves moving the forearm forwards and backwards repetitively with an open palm to simulate a tomahawk chopping, and is often accompanied by a distinctive cheer.

Phillips claimed in a separate video that he heard the students chanting "build that wall" during the encounter, a reference to Trumps pledge to build a barrier along the border with .

The investigators said they found no evidence of such a chant and that Phillips did not respond to multiple attempts to contact him.

While EU Dithers over Trade Strategy, German Auto Bosses Head to Washington - Duration: 4:14.

 Amid fears of what U.S. tariffs on European car imports could do to the auto industry, EU ministers are meeting Friday to come up with a plan for trade negotiations with President Donald Trump

 Germany, whose auto industry has been struggling and whose cars account for half of all its exports to the U

S., wants to start negotiations as soon as possible, Reuters reports, while France is reluctant to negotiate with Trump before the EU Parliament elections in May

The European Commission has asked member countries to approve two negotiating mandates so formal talks can begin

 Meanwhile, German auto executives will travel to Washington as soon as next week to meet with Trump, a meeting facilitated by the U

S. ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, Handelsblatt reports. This sidesteps EU protocol, where European officials negotiate deals, not German officials and certainly not business leaders

 Trump's threat of a 25% tariff on car imports is the biggest worry for Europe's carmakers in 2019, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess told the Financial Times

Those tariffs could cost the world's biggest carmaker as much as €2.5 billion ($2

8 billion) — or 13% of its earnings — annually.  Diess said concerns over the tariffs had created political instability

"It's becoming tense once again," he said. "You know it's a pity because we can't solve it from the car industry [alone]

It's more of a tariffs negotiation between Europe and the United States."  London researchers Evercore ISI estimate the tariffs would cost the top three German automakers — Volkswagen, Daimler and BMW — upwards of €6

25 billion ($7 billion) per year. Diess confirmed that figure is in line with the worst-case scenario

Evercore ISI told CNBC Thursday analysts believe the risk of U.S.-EU tariffs remain high

 Last week Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross made his recommendations to Trump about whether foreign car imports constitute a national security risk to the U

S. It's not clear what's in the recommendations, as they haven't been made public, however, many expect the Commerce Department to back up the assertion that car and car-part imports constitute a threat

 That would allow the Trump administration to respond with new tariffs. The U.S

currently levies a 2.5% tariff on European car and car-part imports, but Trump has promised to introduce tariffs 10 times larger

 German car imports account for 7% of all auto sales in the U.S. (though the percentage increases in the premium market), while U

S. cars account for 14% of sales in the European market, Handelsblatt reports. If the U

S. imposes the car tariffs, the EU Commission will likely impose counter-tariffs on a list of products worth around €20 billion; the focus would be on hurting congressional districts that support Trump

 Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz met with Trump at the White House on Wednesday in hopes of paving the way for better trade relations, Bloomberg reports, but Kurz says the EU and U

S. positions remain far apart. "He really seems to have it in for Germany in particular," Kurz said an Austrian radio interview

"We tried to raise awareness that he wouldn't just hit Germany but also neighboring countries like Austria

"
