RedHill Biopharma Announces Partnerships to Expand Manufacturing for COVID-19 Therapeutic Candidate Opaganib
Coronavirus: International Organization for Migration (IOM), European Union and the Government of Ethiopia strengthen Partnership to support migrants during COVID-19
Addis Ababa – With the European Union’s (EU) revitalized commitment to a single cohesive migration policy as set out in its new Pact on Migration and Asylum, a high-level delegation from the European Union visited Ethiopia for a dialogue with the Government of Ethiopia (GoE), IOM Ethiopia and migrants.
The delegation was led by H.E. Josep Borrell, High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy/Vice-President of the EU Commission, and H.E. Janez Lenarcic, the EU Commissioner for Crisis Management, who visited an IOM Transit Centre in Addis Ababa.
Funded by the EU and other partners, the transit centre provides Ethiopian returnees with the post-arrival assistance they need to return to their home communities with dignity and to rebuild their lives. The migration stories shared by migrants and discussions with the GoE led by H.E. Tsion Teklu, State Minister for Business and Diaspora Affairs in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Maureen Achieng, IOM Ethiopia Chief of Mission and Representative to the African Union (AU) and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), reinforced the need to build on proven successes in scaling up return assistance, sustainable reintegration and livelihood development in migration-prone communities.
“During my visit to the IOM Transit Centre for Ethiopian migrant returnees, I met Najat, a 12-year-old girl. She has just been returned from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and her story is beyond what a child should ever have to endure”, said H.E. Josep Borrell.
The delegation also visited European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) -funded projects in the Somali region, including Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps in Qoloji hosting over 80,000 people.
The European Union is among IOM’s major donors supporting the Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration program, IOM’s response to the returnees from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the humanitarian response in displacement settings.
Maureen Achieng, on her part, said, “The glaring gap we continue to grapple with is that of reintegration. Trends in recent years in terms of rates of re-emigration underline the critical importance of ensuring returning migrants are sustainably reintegrated. Without this, compelling push and pull factors continue to put many of these vulnerable youth into the hands of smugglers and traffickers. It is critically urgent that we break this vicious cycle.”
Over the past three years, IOM has assisted 20,712 Ethiopian returnees from transit and destination countries on the Eastern, Southern and Northern routes. Out of these returnees, 934 were provided with reintegration and livelihood support. Reintegration and livelihood support are among the major areas for which Ethiopia’s Government has requested IOM support.

Moneyval team concludes ‘constructive’ Vatican visit – Vatican News
By Vatican News staff writer
A Moneyval team of experts wrapped-up what has been described as a positive and collaborative on-site visit to the Vatican on Tuesday.
A statement released by the Holy See Press Office said the meetings, that took place during the evaluation visit, “were held in a constructive and cooperative atmosphere.”
Moneyval
Known as ‘Moneyval’, the Committee is a permanent monitoring body of the Council of Europe entrusted with the task of assessing compliance with the principal international standards to counter money laundering and the financing of terrorism. It also makes recommendations to authorities in respect to necessary improvements of their systems.
The visit was to assess the effectiveness of the legislative and institutional measures adopted by Holy See jurisdictions in recent years within this context. It was undertaken as part of a routine evaluation round system established in 2019.
An important step
The Holy See statement said the just-ended assessment visit represents“a further important step of the evaluation process on the effectiveness of the system for preventing and combating money laundering and terrorist financing of the Holy See and the Vatican City State, which will end with the adoption of the Mutual Evaluation Report during the Plenary Assembly scheduled for spring 2021, consistently with the internal procedures of the Moneyval Committee.”
It concluded noting that “the authorities of the Holy See extend their heartfelt and profound gratitude to the team of evaluators and to the members of the Secretariat of the Moneyval Committee.”
Pope Francis welcomed the Moneyval team on Thursday highlighting the need for clean finance at the service of humanity and for a system that does not oppress the weakest and those who are in greatest need.
Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin welcomed the Moneyval evaluation team when it arrived in the Vatican on 30 September, reiterating the commitment and engagement of the Holy See and Vatican City State to combating money laundering and the financing of terrorism.

Covid-19: British government grants vital funding to England’s churches – Vatican News
By Lydia O’Kane
The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales is to receive vital funds from the British government to help them through the coronavirus pandemic.
This financial lifeline is thanks to the British Government’s £1.57bn Culture Recovery Fund.
Around 445 organisations will share £103 million, including the Catholic Church in England.
The funding will be used to “help restart vital reconstruction work and maintenance on cherished heritage sites, keeping venues open and supporting those working in the sector.”
It was announced on Monday that the Catholic Trust for England and Wales has been granted £3million from this fund, “to distribute to Grade I and II historic Catholic churches across England.”
Much needed support
The Bishops’ Conference said the funding “will provide much needed support for these important historic buildings – helping them fund essential repairs and remain open both for their regular visitors, and the wider community.”
Speaking about the grant, the Most Reverend George Stack, Chair of the Patrimony Committee of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales said:
“We’re extremely grateful to the Government’s Culture Recovery Fund for Heritage for this grant of £3million to help with the maintenance, upkeep and repair of a number of our Grade I and II listed buildings in England.”
Impact of pandemic
He went on to say that the Covid-19 pandemic has had a serious impact on the many planned projects which have been unable to proceed, and many churches have not been able to carry out “much needed repairs.”
“This grant will give encouragement and support to local congregations determined to preserve and enhance these churches which are so important a part of our national heritage,” he said.
Journalist Elena Curtis, who has just published a book entitled “50 Catholic Churches to See Before You Die,” which covers England and Wales, told Vatican Radio the funding is a huge boost at a time when so many churches are suffering.
“It’s recognition by the government that churches are really suffering very very seriously because of the pandemic. The estimates for the Catholic Church range of a loss of between half and three-quarters of their income, so it’s huge.”
The Culture Recovery Fund is designed to secure the future of Britain’s museums, galleries, theatres, independent cinemas, heritage sites and music venues with emergency grants and loans.
Malawi: third church attacked by bandits in 2 months – Vatican News
By Vatican News
Church leaders in Malawi have appealed to government authorities to increment protection measures for its citizens and for Catholic churches that have increasingly come under attack by criminals in the past few months.
The appeal comes in the wake of an attack last week by armed bandits who desecrated a parish community at Nsanama, in the district of Machinga, in Malawi’s Mangochi Diocese.
It is the third such attack on Catholic parishes and institutions in the span of two months.
Attack on Nsanama
The parish priest in Nsanama, Fr. Matthew Likambale, reports that on the night of 7 October, the intruders attacked the guard with a metal rod and a machete and restrained him before entering the premises.
The armed bandits then broke into the Convent of the Canossian Sisters and took the Blessed Sacrament. They also pressured the nuns for the whereabouts of the parish priest.
“I want you to know that we had a terrible night after the thieves attacked the Convent of the Canossian Sisters,” Fr. Likambale recounts. “They were looking for me. They pressured the nuns to reveal where I was, but they kept saying that I was not in the convent.”
In all, the bandits made away with cash, a laptop, cell phones and the Holy Eucharist.
Bishop’s appeal
Disturbed by the news, Bishop Montfort Stima of Mangochi called on the government “to do everything possible to protect the citizens of Malawi, including the Catholic Church.” However, he added “I know that the government and the police cannot protect every private home.”
The Bishop, therefore, appealed for all to work together to prevent the reoccurrence of such attacks.
Third attack in two months
In September, both St. Patrick’s parish in the Archdiocese of Lilongwe and the parish of Kankao in the diocese of Mangochi were attacked by armed bandits.
Following the September attack on the parish of Kankao, Bishop Stima issued a statement inviting the faithful in the Mangochi diocese to participate in a novena which began on 14 September to pray to Our Lord for those involved to be found.

Black Lives Matter and far-right counter-protests contribute to increase, says Home Office
The number of racially or religiously aggravated offences in England and Wales rose in June and July, most likely linked to Black Lives Matters rallies and far-right counter-protests, the Home Office has said.
The number of offences recorded by police increased year on year by 34% in June to 6,697 and about 17% in July to 6,677, after declines between March and May, when the UK was under a coronavirus lockdown.
The Home Office said the increases were probably related to anti-racism protests and far-right counter-demonstrations after the death of George Floyd in the US.
Floyd, an unarmed black man, died after a white Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for more than eight minutes as he told them “I can’t breathe”. His death sparked a wave of protests across the world, including the UK.
Alex Raikes, the strategic director of Sari (Stand Against Racism & Inequality), a Bristol based charity, said: “Sari has seen a major impact on our work due to the killing of George Floyd, the rise in Black Lives Matter movement and consequent backlash by far-right and disgruntled community members.”
She added: “The George Floyd killing and Black Lives Matter movement have also led to a backlash on black individuals and families. For example, we have heard reports of racist incidents including remarks referring to George Floyd – ‘Why are you still breathing?’ – and a big increase in comments mocking the transatlantic slave trade or even advocate for it – ‘You should go back to the cotton fields.’
“This is extremely distressing to the children, individuals and families facing this appalling abuse.”
The same Home Office bulletin shows the number of hate crimes recorded by police rose by 8% in England and Wales in the year to 2020. There were 105,090 in 2019-20, compared with 97,446 in 2018-19.
Race hate crimes accounted for about 72% of offences and had risen by 6% since 2018-19, the figures reveal.
Religious hate crime fell by 5% to 6,822 offences, down from a peak of 7,203 the previous year, representing the first drop in religious hate crime since 2012-13.
Sexual orientation hate crime rose by 19% to 15,835 and transgender identity hate crime by 16% to 2,540, while disability hate crime increased by 9% to 8,469.
The Home Office report said: “These percentage increases are smaller than seen in recent years.”
More than half of the hate crimes (53%) recorded by police were for public order offences, with more than a third (38%) for violence against a person, while 5% were recorded as criminal damage and arson offences, the report said.
The report reveals that it takes more than five times as long for police to deal with a hate crime offence than a non-hate crime offence.
Police take on average four days to record an outcome – such as a charge or summons or no further action, for non-hate crime offences, compared with 25 days for hate crime offences.

Venice Commission concerned by risk of paralysis of Ombudsman in Poland
Strasbourg, 12.10.2020 – The Venice Commission made the following statement: “The term of office of the current Polish Human Rights Commissioner expired on 9 September 2020. While the successor has not yet been elected, on 17 September some MPs requested the Constitutional Court to declare unconstitutional the provision of the Human Rights Commissioner Law stating that the outgoing Commissioner performs his duties until the incumbent assumes the position.
The Ombudsman is an important element in a State based on democracy, the rule of law, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms and good administration.
The Venice Commission recalls that continuity in office is of outmost importance. A situation where the institution of the Human Rights Commissioner is prevented from functioning fully and effectively pending the election by parliament of a new Commissioner would have a significant adverse effect on the protection of the rights of the Polish citizens and of all people living in Poland.
The Principles on the protection and promotion of the Ombudsman institution (“the Venice Principles” ) state clearly that States shall refrain from taking any action aiming at or resulting in the suppression of the Ombudsman institution or in any hurdles to its effective functioning, and shall effectively protect it from any such threats”.
The Venice Principles were endorsed by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on 2 May 2019, by the Parliamentary Assembly on 2 October 2019 and by the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities on 30 October 2019.
The European Commission for Democracy through Law – better known as the Venice Commission as it meets in Venice – is the Council of Europe’s advisory body on constitutional matters.
European Union imposes tariffs on aluminium products from China
BRUSSELS: The European Union will impose duties of up to 48% on imports of aluminium extrusions from China midway through an investigation into whether Chinese producers are selling at unfairly low prices.
The EU official journal said on Tuesday that the duties, ranging from 30.4 to 48.0%, would apply from Wednesday. The duties are provisional, meaning they will apply until the investigation’s expected completion by April.
At that point, the bloc could apply duties for five years.
The European Commission, which coordinates trade policy in the 27-nation European Union, opened an investigation in February into the product widely used in transport, construction and electronics after a complaint from industry body European Aluminium.
Members of European Aluminium include Norsk Hydro, Rio Tinto, and Alcoa.
China’s metals association has called the complaint groundless.
The duties will be of 30.4% for Guangdong Haomei New Materials Co Ltd and Guangdong King Metal Light Alloy Technology Co Ltd, while Press Metal International Ltd will see duties of 38.2%.
Other “cooperating” companies would face duties of 34.9% and material from all other companies would see charges of 48%.
