RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul 6, 2022--
Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama has marked his 87th birthday by inaugurating a library and museum in his hillside Indian headquarters. He was cheered by a large number of followers, including American actor Richard Gere, a longtime disciple. The Dalai Lama Library and Museum contain artifacts, teachings, and books on his life and struggle for Tibetan autonomy and protection of its native Buddhist culture. The Dalai Lama has made the Indian hillside town of Dharmsala his headquarters since fleeing from Tibet after a failed uprising against Chinese rule in 1959. China accuses the Dalai Lama of seeking to separate Tibet from China, but he says he only advocates substantial autonomy and protection of Tibet’s culture.
Taliban supreme leader Mullah Haibatullah Akhundzada says that Afghan soil will not be used to launch attacks against other countries, and he asked the international community to not interfere in Afghanistan’s internal affairs. Akhundzada made the assurance on Wednesday in an address ahead of the Eid al-Adha holiday. The Taliban say they are adhering to an agreement they signed with the United States in 2020 — before retaking power — in which they promised to fight terrorists. Since their takeover, they have repeatedly said Afghanistan would not be used as a launching pad for attacks against other countries.
French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne is to lay out her main priorities at parliament Wednesday after the government lost its majority in elections last month. She is expected to face harsh criticism from lawmakers both from the left and from the right, who together now outnumber the government’s supporters at the National Assembly. The leftist coalition has said it will trigger a no-confidence vote to mark its opposition to the government. The move has very little chance of succeeding because it is highly unlikely to get approval from more than half the lawmakers at the National Assembly.

The war in Ukraine is fueling fears of a natural gas emergency in Europe. Russia has throttled back supplies to more countries, this time to major economies and big users such as Germany and Italy. And there are worries about a complete shutoff. Supplies are enough to generate electricity and power industry for today’s needs. But Europe needs to fill its underground gas storage this summer. If it can't, the 27-member European Union could face emergency gas rationing by governments and economic disaster this winter. Meanwhile, higher gas prices and the threat of a cutoff are raising pressure on Europe to find substitutes and reduce how much gas it uses — and fast.
In the 1990s and early 2000s, hotels began offering 100% Satisfaction Guarantees to customers. The promise ensured that customers who were dissatisfied with their service would be guaranteed full refunds with no questions asked. Fast forward to 2022, and it looks like this prevailing expectation has had a negative impact on the overall hotel experience for customers. Recent travel experts state that this approach has diminished guest confidence and rapport with brands. In fact, hotel satisfaction has been trending downward and is at its lowest numbers in years.

A Nigerian official says that at least 600 inmates escaped in a jailbreak in Abuja, the capital. Shuaib Belgore, permanent secretary of Nigeria’s Ministry of Interior, blamed the attack on Boko Haram, Nigeria's Islamic extremist rebels who have waged an insurgency in the country’s northeast for over a decade. He said authorities have recaptured about 300 of those who escaped. Nigeria’s jihadi rebels have carried out several jailbreaks in the country’s northeast in recent years, but this is the first in the capital city. Nigeria’s extremist insurgency by Boko Haram and an offshoot known as the Islamic State Central African Province is blamed for the deaths of more than 35,000 people and the displacement of more than 2 million.
China has launched a scathing attack on the U.S. and NATO, days before a meeting between U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian's comments underscore the increasingly fractious relationship. At last week's NATO summit in Spain, Blinken accused China of “seeking to undermine the rules-based international order.” In his comments Wednesday, Zhao said the “so-called rules-based international order is actually a family rule made by a handful of countries to serve the U.S. self-interest." He said that Washington picks and chooses which international rules to observe, adding that NATO “must renounce its blind faith in military might."

South Korea’s spy agency has filed charges against two of its former directors over their handling of separate border incidents with North Korea in recent years which prompted criticism that Seoul’s previous liberal government improperly appeased the North to improve ties. The National Intelligence Service accused one former director of destroying intelligence reports related to North Korea’s fatal shooting of an unarmed South Korean citizen near the countries’ sea border in 2020. It says another former director forcibly closed an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the 2019 repatriation of two North Korean fisherman who were captured in South Korean waters and expressed a desire to defect.
