[00:00:00] bombing a warehouse and a grain
[00:00:03] ship.
[00:00:06] The helmet from Coțofenești will be restored under the public's
[00:00:09] eyes, who will be able to follow the entire process online.
[00:00:23] The controlled sinking operation of barges in the Danube seems much more
[00:00:26] difficult than specialists estimated, announced for this evening. The sinking
[00:00:30] was postponed for tomorrow, analyses and measurements were made all
[00:00:34] day, strategies initially announced were changed. Alexandru Costach
[00:00:38] is at the springs where all these preparations are being made for the first
[00:00:41] time in the country. Hello Alex, why were the
[00:00:44] plans changed?
[00:00:48] Good evening Mihai, good evening everyone. The plans were changed at the
[00:00:51] last moment due to the complexity of the intervention and
[00:00:54] the safety measures. The four barges
[00:00:57] loaded with stone could only be
[00:01:01] sunk tomorrow, the first two could
[00:01:04] be sunk 500 m from the Bala arm
[00:01:08] where those green buoys are, I think
[00:01:11] you can see them live now, the other two
[00:01:14] barges could be sunk 300 m upstream
[00:01:18] from the first two, this complex
[00:01:20] intervention is meant to direct
[00:01:23] the water from the Bala
[00:01:26] arm on the left towards
[00:01:29] the arm or the main arm of the Danube or the
[00:01:32] Old Danube on the right and to increase the water
[00:01:36] level that reaches the Cernavodă power plant and
[00:01:39] everything is happening Mihai against the background of an extremely
[00:01:43] low flow rate of the Danube at its entrance into the country, which has reached a
[00:01:47] historical minimum of 1400 cubic meters per
[00:01:50] second, a minimum that was only recorded in
[00:01:54] 1985.
[00:01:56] Also, according to specialists from Apele Române, the Danube
[00:02:00] dropped at Cernavodă by 2 cm and continues to
[00:02:03] drop, however, the authorities
[00:02:06] say, due to these
[00:02:09] works, the detonation, the dislocation
[00:02:11] of the Pârjoaia rock and the
[00:02:14] dredging works, the water level has remained stationary, and the
[00:02:18] stake is of major energetic importance,
[00:02:22] maintaining unit two of the Cernavodă power plant in
[00:02:25] operation in conditions where reactor number one
[00:02:29] has already been stopped since July
[00:02:32] 28.
[00:02:37] Two barges were loaded today in the Bala Channel area, another two arrived
[00:02:40] in the area from Galați. Controlled sinking is a
[00:02:44] very difficult operation due to the large volume of water and the weight
[00:02:48] of the barges. The procedure will be to pump water into
[00:02:51] the cofferdams so
[00:02:54] that it slowly lowers the barge to the
[00:02:57] water's surface and then it will be moved. in such a way that it is lowered
[00:03:01] as balanced as possible, in these conditions,
[00:03:05] what we want is for them to be placed as controlled as
[00:03:08] possible, because when they have already sunk,
[00:03:12] other phenomena may appear. Interim Prime Minister
[00:03:14] Ilie Bolojean explained that this is not the only measure by which
[00:03:18] an attempt is made to increase the flow of the Danube in the area of the Cernavodă
[00:03:21] power plant. In parallel, dredging works continue, and at
[00:03:25] the beginning of the week, the army detonated the Pârjoaia rock, which was obstructing
[00:03:28] the river's course. We have a project that
[00:03:31] solves the increase of the flow on this
[00:03:34] arm, which had all the necessary
[00:03:37] approvals and was at the Ministry
[00:03:40] of Transport
[00:03:42] for four years and unfortunately was
[00:03:46] not put into practice. I asked Mr. Miruță
[00:03:49] urgently to launch this project, to
[00:03:52] update all the data and regardless of who will be at
[00:03:55] Transport in the next period, I consider it to be one
[00:03:59] of the priority projects.
[00:04:02] All actions on the river are caused by major drought.
[00:04:06] The Danube's flow has reached a historical minimum of 1400
[00:04:09] cubic meters/second. For this reason, reactor 1 at
[00:04:12] Cernavodă has been stopped. And through controlled sinking
[00:04:16] operations, authorities hope to keep the second one running for another
[00:04:20] four days. The drought is leaving more and more
[00:04:23] communities without drinking water. Wells, lakes and rivers have dried up. In
[00:04:27] Bihor, where there has been a red code for several days, the entire Crișurilor
[00:04:30] river basin is affected, people depend on cisterns brought from
[00:04:34] a distance and desperately look to the sky, hoping for
[00:04:38] rain. Valea Nouă, an important tributary of
[00:04:41] the Black Criș, used to flow strongly through the Bihor commune, Husasău de
[00:04:45] Tinca, now only vegetation still grows in
[00:04:48] the riverbed. I, at least, have never experienced such a
[00:04:51] great drought. It's a terrible drought, luckily
[00:04:55] with the well,
[00:04:58] we can water the garden, otherwise it would be a disaster, this
[00:05:02] animal, we have no water to give them. The red code heatwave has
[00:05:05] dried up many of the rivers in Bihor county, from north to south, the situation
[00:05:09] is the same, terrible drought. The water course
[00:05:12] at nine has dried up, we also have some streams in the sieves,
[00:05:16] mercy, all of which have dried up due to the drought and the lack
[00:05:20] of precipitation. The hydrological situation remains critical in
[00:05:23] the Crișuri hydrographic basin. Almost 30% of the
[00:05:27] 88 monitored stations have
[00:05:30] dried up, while 9% record
[00:05:33] puddles, and at another 17%
[00:05:36] they have exceeded historical lows. The drought has reached
[00:05:40] the foothills of the mountains, in the Drăganului valley.
[00:05:42] in Cluj county, local authorities have been forced to impose restrictions on
[00:05:46] water supply. We need to save money because there's a
[00:05:49] crisis. People should also impose
[00:05:52] restrictions on themselves. In the evening, from 10 o'clock until 7
[00:05:56] o'clock in the morning, we stop the water supply to accumulate
[00:05:59] water in the basin we have. And towards the south, in Mehedinți, there are hundreds of localities where
[00:06:03] the wells have dried up. Villagers receive water by tanker. We
[00:06:06] have none for animals, we have none for anything. We have no drinking water, no animal water.
[00:06:10] No bird water, absolutely none.
[00:06:12] It's getting hard, we go to Severini for water,
[00:06:16] to the Bârzii spring wherever we can find it,
[00:06:19] nothing at the taps, dear me, we have no water for cattle, no
[00:06:23] drinking water, absolutely nothing. There are also problems in Dolj, as well as in
[00:06:26] Constanța county where several localities receive water with
[00:06:30] restrictions.
[00:06:32] Romania approached a new summer record in energy consumption last night,
[00:06:35] despite repeated calls from authorities to save
[00:06:39] energy, a peak that far exceeded domestic production.
[00:06:42] Therefore, to ensure the country's needs, the energy system
[00:06:54] 9 PM, electricity consumption reached one
[00:06:58] of the highest levels recently, almost
[00:07:00] 7800 MW. Production did
[00:07:04] not cover consumption, and Romania even imported over
[00:07:07] 2300 MW, as happened, for example, around
[00:07:11] 8 PM. In comparison, on Tuesday evening, also around
[00:07:14] 9 PM, electricity consumption was lower
[00:07:18] than on Wednesday evening, by approximately 400
[00:07:21] MW. Data recorded by Transelectrica in real
[00:07:24] time show that in the evening, our country had to import over 2000
[00:07:28] MW. On the domestic market, in the evening, electricity
[00:07:32] can even cost over 1700 RON per
[00:07:35] MW. Over four times more expensive than at
[00:07:38] noon. In these conditions, authorities have reiterated their call to
[00:07:42] the population, companies and institutions to limit electricity consumption
[00:07:46] between 7 PM and 11 PM.
[00:07:50] The population will not be affected by the eventual limitation of electricity
[00:07:53] consumption, assures interim Prime Minister Ilie Bolojean,
[00:07:57] who specifies that the executive will take measures to limit consumption for
[00:08:00] industrial consumers in case the situation worsens.
[00:08:04] The energy crisis could continue for another week or two," said the head of
[00:08:07] the executive, who again appealed for savings in electricity
[00:08:11] consumption. He said that some companies have already found solutions and,
[00:08:15] for example, have scheduled revisions or maintenance of installations during this
[00:08:18] period. In this conjuncture in which
[00:08:22] we find ourselves,
[00:08:25] currently and at least for the next few days, we estimate
[00:08:28] five to seven days, as long
[00:08:32] as the operation of Cernavodă Unit 2
[00:08:36] is ensured according to flow predictions, we will
[00:08:39] not have affected industrial consumers.
[00:08:43] Regarding a possible stage we might enter, in which
[00:08:46] measures to limit
[00:08:50] consumption will be taken, even during this
[00:08:54] period there is no question of granting
[00:08:57] compensation, I emphasize
[00:08:59] that private homes, citizens
[00:09:02] will not be limited or
[00:09:04] disconnected, so household
[00:09:07] consumers are exempt from these
[00:09:10] measures, similarly, consumers
[00:09:14] whose activity cannot be interrupted, such as
[00:09:17] hospitals, will not be included in this
[00:09:21] regulation. The energy crisis will make electricity
[00:09:24] even more expensive. Some suppliers have started sending contract proposals
[00:09:28] with increased tariffs. For an ordinary consumption, the difference can
[00:09:32] mean tens of lei more each month. Specialists advise
[00:09:35] consumers to compare offers before signing additional
[00:09:39] documents. In the offer received by a consumer
[00:09:43] from September, they would pay 1.53
[00:09:46] RON for 1 kWh, the increase of 18 bani compared to the current
[00:09:50] tariff means a monthly bill that is at least
[00:09:53] 18 RON higher for the same consumption as before. The new
[00:09:57] offers come in the context where electricity is sold on
[00:10:00] the stock exchange at a price triple that of last year, and the culprits are
[00:10:04] drought and high supply risks. I don't think
[00:10:07] the crisis that has been happening for a few days is an explanation, why
[00:10:11] should we forget about the crisis in
[00:10:14] Iran, which led to an increase in energy prices, not only in
[00:10:17] Romania, but everywhere. The offers already sent by some
[00:10:21] suppliers are valid until the end of the year in some cities.
[00:10:25] The new tariffs that are expected to be applied from autumn are approaching
[00:10:29] 2 RON per kWh, for Eșen the price exceeds this
[00:10:32] threshold. The differences come from the transport and distribution
[00:10:36] tariff, in fact. I ask clients to check the available
[00:10:40] offers. On the ANR comparator there are offers
[00:10:43] even between 1.1, 1.2, 1.5. With
[00:10:47] already high bills, Romanians have reduced purchases in almost all
[00:10:50] categories. Retail trade decreased by 5.6%
[00:10:55] in the first six months compared to the same period last
[00:10:58] year. If we look at the cost of energy, if we look at
[00:11:02] rents that have increased by 40%, energy by
[00:11:05] over 60%, these are costs that we cannot
[00:11:08] postpone and we are redirecting money from some
[00:11:12] expenses that were somewhat optional towards these
[00:11:15] mandatory ones. Romania is among the countries in Europe with the highest
[00:11:19] energy prices. Changing supplier is
[00:11:22] free and simple, without interruption of electricity
[00:11:25] supply. Cities in western Romania are
[00:11:29] melting under the increasingly scorching sun at temperatures even over
[00:11:32] 50°C on the asphalt, and the red code, under
[00:11:35] which seven counties have been for several days, expires only tomorrow
[00:11:38] morning. The hottest was in Oradea where 43°C
[00:11:41] were felt in the air, but the atmosphere was hard to bear also in
[00:11:45] other urban centers in the western part. At
[00:11:49] 1 PM in Timișoara, 36°C were
[00:11:52] recorded in the shade, but the felt temperature was
[00:11:56] 40°C. In the city center, the heat
[00:12:00] is unbearable, considering that we don't have much
[00:12:03] vegetation here. We're doing an experiment to see how quickly
[00:12:07] the water evaporates from the hot asphalt. We have
[00:12:10] 6 minutes and 46 seconds. No, it's
[00:12:13] not very comfortable, but we're
[00:12:16] managing. It's hard, it feels a bit hot in the
[00:12:20] house. Very high temperatures, temperatures
[00:12:25] comparable to the absolute records of
[00:12:28] August in the west and northwest of the country, 40-
[00:12:32] 41 degrees in the shade. Highly sought after by
[00:12:35] those who dare to leave their homes in the heat is water from public
[00:12:39] fountains, there are over 90 in Timișoara. I stop, get another
[00:12:43] bottle of water, cool off and get back to work. In Brașov, in
[00:12:46] Asfatului Square, a snow tund cools the
[00:12:50] atmosphere. If in winter water turns into snowflakes, at
[00:12:53] the 35 degrees in the city, the drops cool the air
[00:12:57] for a distance of up to 20 m. It's super
[00:13:00] cool, very, very refreshing, how long can you stay
[00:13:03] there, I think five minutes, how's
[00:13:07] the feeling, it's very pleasant, it's the best
[00:13:10] thing, okay, well, the hot
[00:13:14] air outside aggravates chronic diseases, doctors warn and recommend
[00:13:17] people with such conditions to stay indoors, hydrate
[00:13:20] properly and make sure that temperatures in homes do not rise
[00:13:24] excessively. Heart rhythm disorders, muscle
[00:13:27] cramps, abundant
[00:13:30] sweating and unfortunately can lead
[00:13:33] to what is called heatstroke, but
[00:13:36] continuous air-conditioned spaces are not an ideal solution, uncleaned
[00:13:40] appliances or too low temperatures can lead to sick
[00:13:43] building syndrome. Migraine, headache, brain fog, meaning a
[00:13:47] slowdown in thinking. Another warning comes from meteorologists:
[00:13:50] these days, the heatwave overlaps almost all over the country with torrential
[00:13:54] rains and violent storms,
[00:13:57] strong gusts that will even reach around
[00:14:01] 90 km/h and also there will be
[00:14:05] storms, hail and torrential downpours will be more
[00:14:08] possible, however, in mountain areas. At the end of the week,
[00:14:11] the rains become scarcer, but the heat persists, and from Monday, the heatwave
[00:14:14] intensifies
[00:14:16] again. All of Europe is suffering from extreme heat, a dramatic situation in
[00:14:20] Italy, where no area escapes the highest temperatures of this
[00:14:24] summer and on... the Dalmatian coast there were over 40°C. I will tell you immediately
[00:14:28] what measures the authorities have taken.
[00:14:31] Moscow announces that it will not recall its ambassador from Romania for
[00:14:34] consultations, but warns that the expulsion of the Russian diplomat by
[00:14:37] the Bucharest authorities will receive, quote, an adequate
[00:14:41] response. The statement was made today at a press conference at
[00:14:44] the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is a reaction to the measure
[00:14:48] taken by the Romanian authorities to declare a member of the Russian
[00:14:51] diplomatic mission Persona Non Grata in the context in which Russian
[00:14:55] drones entered Romanian airspace and were
[00:14:57] shot down.
[00:15:01] Ukraine continued drone attacks on major refineries in Russia
[00:15:04] located over 1000 km from its borders. The Ukrainian
[00:15:08] army also hit command centers for launching Russian drones. For their
[00:15:11] part, the Russians bombed a ship carrying grain from Ukraine in the Black
[00:15:15] Sea, as well as a warehouse of an online trading
[00:15:19] company. The Ukrainian
[00:15:22] forces have hit for the second time in weeks,
[00:15:26] one of the largest refineries in Russia in the UFA region. Also,
[00:15:29] Ukrainian drones hit two Russian command centers,
[00:15:33] used to coordinate Moscow's drone
[00:15:36] attacks. After the Ukrainians started bombing
[00:15:39] the warehouses of the Russian online trading company Wildberries,
[00:15:43] the Russians also started attacking the warehouses of a Ukrainian
[00:15:46] online trading company. Meanwhile,
[00:15:49] the President of Ukraine continued to call on Western countries
[00:15:52] to help Kiev with
[00:15:54] anti-aircraft systems.
[00:16:01] Anti-ballistic air defense. Yes? We should
[00:16:05] all do this, everyone.
[00:16:10] A first response came from the British Minister of Defense
[00:16:13] during his visit to Kiev. We're working through a whole list of those
[00:16:17] requirements, where the UK has the ability to
[00:16:20] provide, we will, and where we don't, it's my
[00:16:23] job.
[00:16:27] A day after the attack on Kiev, in which 17 people were
[00:16:31] killed, the Russians carried out a new attack on the Ukrainian
[00:16:34] capital. This time no casualties were
[00:16:38] reported, only material damage. On the other hand, Valerii Zaluzhny,
[00:16:42] the former commander of the Ukrainian armed forces and current
[00:16:45] ambassador to London, reversed his statement, according to
[00:16:48] which Ukraine will never join NATO.
[00:16:52] Zaluzhny now said that NATO must fundamentally rethink
[00:16:55] how wars should be fought, because
[00:16:59] Russia has already found ways to counter
[00:17:02] every Western weapon used by
[00:17:04] Ukraine. Russians are so afraid
[00:17:08] of Ukrainian drones that they have installed metal cages on the command towers of
[00:17:12] Black Sea submarines, a rudimentary and not very
[00:17:15] effective solution, experts say. Proof of this are satellite photos
[00:17:19] published by the British Ministry of Defence. Last year, the Ukrainians
[00:17:22] managed to hit a Russian submarine in Novorossiysk Port with
[00:17:26] a naval drone.
[00:17:28] The photos published by the British show three Russian Kilo-class
[00:17:32] submarines in Novorossiysk port, with only the command
[00:17:35] tower protected by metal cages visible on the surface. This is a
[00:17:39] natural reaction that shows that the Russian
[00:17:42] naval forces believe they can no longer
[00:17:46] protect themselves against aerial
[00:17:49] drones, including or especially FPVs, in the Novorossiysk
[00:17:52] military port. A Russian Kilo-class submarine
[00:17:56] costs over 400 million dollars. These are very important
[00:18:00] for Russia, because Kalibr cruise missiles are launched
[00:18:03] from their board. At the beginning of the war, Russia had a fleet with
[00:18:07] which it controlled the Black Sea, later, due to Ukrainian
[00:18:10] drones, the Russian navy hid its ships in Novorossiysk
[00:18:13] port, but since last year, even this remote location was no longer
[00:18:17] safe from Kiev's drones. It no longer
[00:18:19] controls the Black Sea, that is evident, but
[00:18:23] it can pose a danger to certain objectives
[00:18:26] and can, how can I say, ultimately affect
[00:18:30] what interests them, it is seen in the fact
[00:18:33] that they closed the port of Odessa. Military analysts have
[00:18:36] warned that the danger has increased significantly in the Black Sea, given
[00:18:40] that both Russians and Ukrainians are attacking each other's ships, including
[00:18:44] supply ships. The situation also affects Romania because
[00:18:47] some targets are hit in its exclusive economic
[00:18:50] zone. After the mysterious incident of
[00:18:54] the military drone loaded with explosives, operations resumed
[00:18:57] at Leipzig airport. It was an extremely
[00:19:00] dangerous situation, unlike previous ones in Denmark,
[00:19:04] Poland or Romania. The German government is talking
[00:19:08] about a new type of threat. Officially, the attacker is unknown.
[00:19:11] Semi-officially, a parliamentarian directly accuses Russia of
[00:19:14] involvement. German authorities were from the beginning
[00:19:18] extremely reserved in publishing details about what happened
[00:19:22] in Leipzig. But police documents, leaked
[00:19:26] intentionally or not to the German press, reconstructed
[00:19:29] a timeline of events. The Ukrainian Cargo Antonov
[00:19:33] Airlines plane, coming from France, had just landed in Leipzig,
[00:19:36] loaded with military ammunition. Nearby, an
[00:19:39] airport employee saw the drone flying at low
[00:19:42] altitude, it was not detected by anti-drone
[00:19:46] sensors and the investigation shows that it was equipped with systems
[00:19:49] against
[00:19:50] them.
[00:19:54] a drone was sighted
[00:19:57] in the area of Leipzig airport.
[00:20:01] This drone was
[00:20:04] equipped with explosives. "This
[00:20:08] is a new quality of
[00:20:10] danger,
[00:20:13] drone sightings, drone threats,
[00:20:17] also in a hybrid context, we know that from
[00:20:21] the past, but for a drone
[00:20:25] armed with explosives
[00:20:27] to be found here on an airport grounds,
[00:20:31] that is a new threat
[00:20:34] scenario, but German authorities
[00:20:38] avoid revealing who organized the operation and whether
[00:20:41] it was an attempted attack or just a test, but a
[00:20:44] German parliamentarian, a member of the intelligence oversight committee,
[00:20:48] stated explicitly that Russia is behind the
[00:20:52] attack. The German press cites police
[00:20:55] documents, according to which there was also a second
[00:20:59] drone in the area. A DHL cargo plane attempting to
[00:21:02] land in Leipzig collided in the air with an
[00:21:05] unidentified object, sustained minor damage and managed to
[00:21:09] reach Hanover. For now, all indications show
[00:21:13] that it was not a collision with a
[00:21:15] bird. All of Italy is under a red code
[00:21:19] for heatwave. For the first time this year, in the 27 major
[00:21:22] cities on the peninsula, there is a climatic alert state at temperatures
[00:21:26] exceeding 40°C, authorities recommend
[00:21:29] the population to avoid traveling during peak hours, to
[00:21:32] hydrate and not to expose themselves to the sun regardless of age. In
[00:21:36] Rome, the first urban climate refuge was
[00:21:39] inaugurated. The maximum alert state targets
[00:21:42] the entire population of Italy, not just vulnerable categories.
[00:21:46] The peninsula is already going through its fourth heatwave since the beginning of
[00:21:50] summer, and locals and tourists are struggling with the thermal
[00:21:53] discomfort. For the first time this year, all 27
[00:21:57] major Italian cities have been placed under a red code for heatwave.
[00:22:00] The unprecedented measure taken by the Ministry of Health is
[00:22:04] a warning for the population of all ages. In the face of
[00:22:07] increasingly frequent heatwaves, the Rome administration has
[00:22:11] inaugurated the first urban space specially designed to combat
[00:22:14] the effects of the heatwave. The area was
[00:22:17] set up on the outskirts to offer residents a place of
[00:22:21] refuge on hot days, it is equipped with
[00:22:23] water sprinklers, climbing plants and plenty of shade. I
[00:22:27] took my sun umbrella and cap,
[00:22:30] hat, but it still doesn't seem enough. We look for
[00:22:34] shady spots,
[00:22:37] with an umbrella, with a cap, we hydrate very
[00:22:41] well. Meteorologists warn that heatwaves
[00:22:44] are becoming increasingly intense and persistent in
[00:22:47] Southern Europe, and cities are... forced to invest in
[00:22:51] adaptation solutions to climate change and on the
[00:22:54] Dalmatian coast in Croatia, tourists and locals are struggling
[00:22:58] with high temperatures, in
[00:23:00] Dubrovnik the temperature reaches 40°C in
[00:23:04] the middle of the day.
[00:23:17] At noon, the beaches in the city in southern
[00:23:21] Croatia are almost empty, because the
[00:23:41] Court regarding the ANI Law, which could leave Dominic
[00:23:45] Fritz without the mandate of mayor of Timișoara. This is the same
[00:23:49] project that provides for partners of dignitaries to
[00:23:52] submit asset declarations. USR claims that the normative act violates
[00:23:56] several constitutional principles and represents political dedication.
[00:23:59] The Constitutional Court will analyze the notification on August 12. The ANI
[00:24:03] Law is a key milestone in the PNRR and if it does not come into force by
[00:24:06] August 31, Romania will lose almost 800 million
[00:24:09] euros.
[00:24:11] August 25th is the deadline by which all city halls
[00:24:15] must be enrolled in the gicheul.ro platform. Over 900
[00:24:19] of them are not. Most of those from rural areas have conformed.
[00:24:22] Thus, over 2 million Romanians do not benefit from the advantages
[00:24:25] of digitalization. The government warns mayors that they risk
[00:24:29] losing budget allocations. With over
[00:24:32] 2000 inhabitants, Negrilești is among the eight communes in Bistrița
[00:24:36] Năsăud that are not yet enrolled on ghiceul.ro. The authorities
[00:24:39] claim that the process was delayed due to costs. We
[00:24:43] analyzed several offers for
[00:24:46] the expense of transactions that are made and
[00:24:49] then. We wanted to analyze this part more carefully, to
[00:24:53] be more sure and to come to the aid
[00:24:56] of citizens so that the expenses are lower for
[00:24:59] transactions. We just got possession of the POS, we are trying
[00:25:03] to submit the application and we are missing some information for
[00:25:06] gicheu.ro, but we are on
[00:25:10] the last mile. Locals say it would be easier for them to
[00:25:13] pay taxes online. Vischeul.ro, I haven't heard
[00:25:17] you haven't heard, but about the possibility of paying taxes. And taxes and
[00:25:20] fines online, have you heard, have you heard
[00:25:24] of that, yes, do you have cards, we have, especially for
[00:25:28] us, for us young people who are better with the internet, not for
[00:25:31] old people, no, but we teach them or we help them who can, in the same
[00:25:35] situation are 28 city halls in Iași county, but many people from
[00:25:39] the villages have never heard of the gicheul.ro platform and to
[00:25:43] have cards, let alone. Do you pay taxes and duties
[00:25:46] online? No, no, no, no, at the city hall, not at the city hall.
[00:25:50] allocate some money because we can't... Have you heard, we
[00:25:52] village women, no, we're not very good with
[00:25:55] these things, I'm not good with the internet, but do you have a bank
[00:25:59] card? No, we have to
[00:26:02] We can't implement this system with the city hall's
[00:26:05] own apparatus, we find the funds, they are not there, but we find the
[00:26:08] necessary funds, given the deadline we have. 913
[00:26:12] communes and six cities are not enrolled on the online tax payment
[00:26:16] platform, most of them are from Telorman, Dolj,
[00:26:19] Mehedinți and Caraș Severin. In a Facebook post, interim Deputy Prime Minister
[00:26:23] Oana Gheorghiu told them that they risk losing state money
[00:26:26] if they don't meet the deadline. A huge
[00:26:30] hole appeared in the center of the capital, asphalt. Everything collapsed on Eroilor Boulevard.
[00:26:34] A fault in the sewage network would be the explanation.
[00:26:37] Intervention teams estimate that repairs will last until tomorrow, during this interval,
[00:26:41] road traffic in the area will be restricted to one lane in each
[00:26:44] direction. Nine years ago, also on Eroilor Boulevard, the ground
[00:26:48] collapsed during the works for subway line 5 and endangered
[00:26:52] the buildings in the area.
[00:26:55] The restoration of the helmet from Coțofenești can be
[00:26:58] followed in real time. The National Museum of History has prepared a web
[00:27:01] page where the entire process will be explained by experts. After
[00:27:05] the robbery in the Netherlands, the treasure object suffered small modifications and
[00:27:09] specialists will try to bring it as close as possible to its
[00:27:12] original form.
[00:27:14] After it was established that it is indeed the original, the helmet will be
[00:27:18] restored with a complex methodology, elaborated by specialists
[00:27:22] from the country and abroad. The process began with a series of
[00:27:25] magical investigations carried out by physicists, chemists and other
[00:27:29] experts. Our investigative colleagues are
[00:27:33] essential, we cannot understand certain aspects of the state of preservation of the objects, as long
[00:27:37] as we do not have specific analyzes for
[00:27:40] each support separately. The general idea of restoration is to
[00:27:44] understand the needs of the object, not to impose your needs
[00:27:48] as a restorer. The thieves who stole it from the Dutch museum
[00:27:52] damaged it, and now restorers will use a delicate
[00:27:55] method to bring it to its correct form.
[00:27:58] Metallography has confirmed that the metal supports
[00:28:01] intervention. Restoration will be done
[00:28:04] with personalized molds made of a
[00:28:08] thermoplastic material that are non-adhesive, so they
[00:28:11] will not affect the helmet in any way, so
[00:28:15] they do not stick, they are not attached mechanically to the helmet, but with
[00:28:18] the help of these molds the helmet will
[00:28:22] be attempted to be brought back to its original
[00:28:25] form, little by little. The National Museum of History states that
[00:28:29] the entire restoration process can also be followed on a special
[00:28:32] web page. The helmet from Coțofenești was stolen in January last year
[00:28:36] from a museum in the Netherlands along with three Dacian bracelets. Two
[00:28:40] of these and the helmet were recovered and brought to the country in
[00:28:43] April this year. The objects were presented to the public in
[00:28:46] a special ceremony and then exhibited for a few days at
[00:28:50] the National Museum of
[00:28:51] History.
