WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden says the Sept. 11 attacks “cannot explain” why U.S. forces should remain in Afghanistan 20 years later and that “it is time for American troops to come home” from the country's longest war. Biden, in excerpts of a speech to the nation he plans later Wednesday, says the U.S. cannot continue to pour resources into an intractable war and expect different results. The White House released the excerpts before the afternoon address when he plans to detail his timeline for a U.S. troop withdrawal. “We cannot continue the cycle of extending or expanding our military presence in Afghanistan hoping to create the ideal conditions for our withdrawal, expecting a different result,” Biden says. “I am now the fourth American president to preside over an American troop presence in Afghanistan. Two Republicans. Two Democrats. I will not pass this responsibility to a fifth.” Biden says he consulted with allies, military leaders, lawmakers and Vice-President Kamala Harris to help make his decision to withdraw all U.S. troops by Sept. 11, two decades after the deadliest attack on American soil. He is emphasizing that his administration will continue to support peace talks between the Afghan government and the Taliban and assist international efforts to train the Afghan military. “It is time to end America’s longest war,” Biden says. “It is time for American troops to come home.” THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below. President Joe Biden will withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on America that were co-ordinated from that country, several U.S. officials said. Biden will lay out his vision for the way forward in Afghanistan and the timeline for the withdrawal in remarks Wednesday afternoon, The White House said. Punctuating the nearly two decades U.S. troops have fought and died in Afghanistan, the president will then visit Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery to honour the sacrifice of those who died in recent American conflicts. The decision to withdraw troops by fall defies a May 1 deadline for full withdrawal under a peace agreement the Trump administration reached with the Taliban last year, but leaves no room for additional extensions. A senior administration official on Tuesday called the September date an absolute deadline that won't be affected by security conditions in the country. While Biden's decision keeps U.S. troops in Afghanistan four months longer than initially planned, it sets a firm end to two decades of war that killed more than 2,200 U.S. troops, wounded 20,000, and cost as much as $1 trillion. The conflict largely crippled al-Qaida and led to the death of Osama bin Laden, the architect of the Sept. 11 attacks. But an American withdrawal also risks many of the gains made in democracy, women's rights and governance, while ensuring that the Taliban, who provided al-Qaida's haven, remain strong and in control of large swaths of the country. Biden has been hinting for weeks that he was going to let the May deadline lapse, and as the days went by it became clear that an orderly withdrawal of the roughly 2,500 remaining troops would be difficult and was unlikely. The administration official said the drawdown would begin by May 1. Biden's choice of the 9-11 date underscores the reason that American troops were in Afghanistan to begin with — to prevent extremist groups like al-Qaida from establishing a foothold again that could be used to launch attacks against the U.S. The administration official said Biden decided that the withdrawal deadline had to be absolute, rather than based on conditions on the ground. “We’re committing today to going to zero” U.S. forces by Sept. 11, and possibly well before, the official said, adding that Biden concluded that a conditioned withdrawal would be “a recipe for staying in Afghanistan forever.” Defence officials and commanders had argued against the May 1 deadline, saying the U.S. troop withdrawal should be based on security conditions in Afghanistan, including Taliban attacks and violence. White House press secretary Jen Psaki didn't provide details of Biden's remarks planned for Wednesday, but she said during a White House briefing that Biden "has been consistent in his view that there is not a military solution to Afghanistan, that we have been there for far too long.” Psaki tweeted later Tuesday that Biden's visit to Arlington National Cemetery was “to pay his respects to the brave men and women who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan.” Several U.S. officials confirmed Biden’s withdrawal decision to The Associated Press, and an administration official provided details to reporters on condition of anonymity, speaking ahead of the announcement. According to the administration official, the only U.S. forces remaining in Afghanistan will be those needed to protect diplomats there. No exact number was provided, but American troop totals in Afghanistan have been understated by U.S. administrations for years. Officials have quietly acknowledged that there are hundreds more in Afghanistan than the official 2,500 number, and likely would include special operations forces conducting covert or counterterrorism missions, often working with intelligence agency personnel. Biden's new, extended timeline will allow a safe and orderly withdrawal of American troops in co-ordination with NATO allies, the administration official added. The president's decision, however, risks retaliation by the Taliban on U.S. and Afghan forces, possibly escalating the 20-year war. And it will reignite political division over America’s involvement in what many have called the endless war. An intelligence community report issued Tuesday about global challenges for the next year said prospects for a peace deal in Afghanistan are “low” and warned that “the Taliban is likely to make gains on the battlefield. If the coalition withdraws support, the report says, the Afghan government will struggle to control the Taliban. Congressional reaction to the new deadline was mixed. “Precipitously withdrawing U.S. forces from Afghanistan is a grave mistake," said Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. “It is retreat in the face of an enemy that has not yet been vanquished and abdication of American leadership.” Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, the ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, slammed it as a “reckless and dangerous decision.” He said any withdrawal should be conditions-based, adding that arbitrary deadlines could put troops in danger, create a breeding ground for terrorists and lead to civil war in Afghanistan. Democrats were generally more supportive. Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., chairman of the Armed Services Committee, said President Donald Trump’s May 1 deadline limited Biden’s options. “We still have vital interests in protecting against terrorist attacks that could be emanating from that part of the world, but there are other areas, too, we have to be conscious of,” Reed said. Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., said troops should come home, and the U.S. must refocus American national security on more pressing challenges. But at least one senior Democrat expressed disappointment. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire said in a tweet that the U.S. “has sacrificed too much to bring stability to Afghanistan to leave w/o verifiable assurances of a secure future.” Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahed told the AP that the religious militia is waiting for a formal announcement to issue its reaction. The Taliban previously warned the U.S. of “consequences” if it reneged on the May 1 deadline. In a February 2020 agreement with the Trump administration, the Taliban agreed to halt attacks and hold peace talks with the Afghan government, in exchange for a U.S. commitment to a complete withdrawal by May 2021. Over the past year, U.S. military commanders and defence officials have said that attacks on U.S. troops have largely paused, but that Taliban attacks on the Afghans increased. Commanders have argued that the Taliban have failed to meet the conditions of the peace agreement by continuing attacks on the Afghans and failing to totally cut ties with al-Qaida and other extremist groups. When Biden entered the White House in January, he was keenly aware of the looming deadline and had time to meet it if he had chosen to do so. He began a review of the February 2020 agreement shortly after taking office, and has been consulting at length with his defence advisers and allies. In recent weeks, it became increasingly clear that he was leaning toward defying the deadline. “It’s going to be hard to meet the May 1 deadline,” Biden said in March. “Just in terms of tactical reasons, it’s hard to get those troops out.” He added, “And if we leave, we’re going to do so in a safe and orderly way.” ___ Knickmeyer reported from Oklahoma City.

14 April, 2021, 16:15 CET ArcelorMittal Italia to be renamed Acciaierie d’Italia ArcelorMittal announces that it has today completed an investment agreement (the ‘Investment Agreement’) with Invitalia, an Italian state-owned company, forming a public-private partnership between the parties. Invitalia has injected €400 million new equity into AM InvestCo Italy, ArcelorMittal’s subsidiary which signed the lease and purchase agreement for the Ilva business, providing Invitalia with a 38% shareholding and equal voting rights with joint control over the company. Going forward the joint company AM InvestCo Italy is being re-named Acciaierie d’Italia Holding, and its main operating subsidiary ArcelorMittal Italia will be renamed Acciaierie d’Italia. The Investment Agreement stipulates a second equity injection by Invitalia, of up to €680 million, to fund the completion of the purchase of Ilva’s business by Acciaierie d’Italia, which is expected by May 2022 subject to certain conditions precedent*. At this point, Invitalia’s shareholding in Acciaierie d’Italia would increase to 60%, with ArcelorMittal to invest up to €70 million to retain a 40% shareholding and joint control over the company. Going forward, Acciaierie d’Italia Holding will operate independently, and as such will have its own funding plans without reliance on ArcelorMittal. As a result, ArcelorMittal will deconsolidate the assets and liabilities (including the remaining lease and purchase liability) of Acciaierie d’Italia Holding (formerly AM InvestCo Italy) from its consolidated statement of financial position and will account its interest in the company under the equity method. *The conditions precedent include: the amendment of the existing environmental plan to account for changes in the new industrial plan; the lifting of all criminal seizures on the Taranto plant; and the absence of restrictive measures – in the context of criminal proceedings where Ilva is a defendant – being imposed against Acciaierie d’Italia Holding or its subsidiaries. In case conditions precedent are not met, then the Acciaierie d’Italia Holding would not be required to complete the purchase of Ilva’s assets and its capital invested would be returned.
Redding, California, April 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to a new market research report titled “Continuous Bioprocessing Market by Product (Filtration, Chromatography, Centrifuges, Consumables), Application (Commercial {Vaccines, Monoclonal Antibodies}, R&D), End User (Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology, CROs), and Geography - Forecast to 2027”, published by Meticulous Research®, the continuous bioprocessing market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 22.9% from 2020 to 2027 to reach $197.8 million by 2027. Download Free Sample Report Now @ https://www.meticulousresearch.com/download-sample-report/cp_id=5079 Continuous bioprocessing consists of integrated continuous unit processes without intermediate holding tanks through which product travels into containers in a constant flow. Continuous unit operations are characterized by extremely intensified processing with short downtimes. An end-to-end bioprocess includes perfusion bioreactors, multi-column chromatography systems, and multi-column intermediate purification systems. Some pharma and biopharma manufacturers are adopting a hybrid approach to continuous bioprocessing in which only upstream or downstream process is operated continuously. The growth in the continuous bioprocessing market is mainly attributed to the growing demand for biopharmaceuticals, growing development of new technologies and products related to continuous bioprocessing, and rising government support for biopharmaceutical manufacturing. In addition, significant opportunities in Asia-Pacific and Latin America and growing approval for personalized medicines further support this market's growth. However, factors such as the high risk of contamination with continuous bioprocessing, the complex nature of continuous bioprocessing in downstream processes, and the shortage of bioprocessing professionals are expected to hinder the adoption of continuous bioprocessing. Over the years, several advances have been made in bioprocessing to cut costs, improve product yield, and streamline integration between upstream and downstream processing. Advances in upstream processing have focused on key areas like increased volumetric productivity through process intensification, increasing cell-specific productivity, greater cellular and molecular biology, and accelerating process development timeline. Bioprocessing operations have also led to other innovations like continuous improvements in cell expression systems and development and improvement of disposable bioreactors impacting bioprocessing operations, leading to new product launches. For instance, in September 2020, Cytiva (U.S.) launched its Xcellerex Automated Perfusion System (APS) for biotherapeutic manufacturing. Impact of COVID-19 on the Continuous Bioprocessing Market The global COVID-19 pandemic has affected the healthcare industry diversely. The adoption of continuous bioprocessing technologies is expected to rise due to accelerated R&D to manufacture COVID-19 vaccines. To curb the spread of the novel COVID-19 virus, countries worldwide went under strict lockdowns, which resulted in the disrupted supply chains for sourcing raw materials. With the growing vaccine and therapeutic candidates in the pipeline, the demand for novel manufacturing approaches like continuous processing is accelerating, positively impacting the market.

MONTREAL — Cogeco Inc. says its second-quarter net profit was $110.2 million, down from a year ago, as higher financial and income tax expenses offset revenue gains at its main subsidiary. The Montreal-based company, which successfully fended off a hostile takeover attempt by Rogers Communications Inc. last year, says its net profit for the three months ended Feb. 28 was equal to $2.11 per diluted share of Cogeco Inc. The result compared with a net profit of $113.4 million or $2.18 per diluted share of Cogeco Inc. in the second quarter of the company's 2020 financial year. Cogeco Inc.'s revenue rose to $653.2 million from $610.8 million a year ago, most of it generated by its publicly traded telecommunications subsidiary. Cogeco Communications Inc. reported separately revenue of $634.5 million for the three months ended Feb. 28, up from $586.5 million a year earlier. The cable and internet subsidiary, which operates in Quebec, Ontario and the United States, earned $110.6 million or $2.14 per Cogeco Communications share, down from $114.0 million or $2.22 per share a year earlier. Revenue at Cogeco Communications was up mainly because of a friendly takeover of Quebec-based DERYTelecom, which closed in December.
