Filantropům hledajícím jak pomoci české vědě doporučuji podpořit české držitele ERC grantů po konci grantu. Výhody: 1 evaluace žadatelů delegovaná mimo ČR. 2 zvýšená stabilita financování dobré vědy. Krátkodobé financování je velký neduh CZ vědy. 3 zvýšená motivace žádat o ERC.

The US is imposing sanctions on Russia’s two biggest oil companies, Rosneft and Lukoil, saying it wanted to 'degrade' Vladimir Putin’s war chest and support Donald Trump’s effort to end the war in Ukraine. https://t.co/Xj4Ti5PxEt

Q: Did you tell Zelenskyy he needed to cede all of the Donbas region to Russia? TRUMP: No, we never discussed it. We think that what they should do is just stop at the lines where they are. Q: What do you think should happen with the Donbas region? TRUMP: I think 78% of the

In Alaska, Putin delivered a rambling historical discursion spanning medieval princes such as Rurik of Novgorod and Yaroslav the Wise, along with the 17th century Cossack chieftain Bohdan Khmelnytsky — figures he often cites to support his claim Ukraine and Russia are one nation.

New: Trump warmly greeted Putin in Alaska. But behind closed doors, the summit quickly went south. Putin flatly rejected Trump’s ceasefire offer and went on a rambling digression about history. Trump raised his voice several times and nearly stormed out: https://t.co/6fVxM0oUSR
