Vilnius, Aug. 7 (Xinhua) — The Presidium of the Social Democratic Party of Lithuania (SDPL) on Wednesday nominated Social Security and Labor Minister Inga Ruginienė as the head of government, the Baltic News Service reported.

Her candidacy comes after Prime Minister Gintautas Paluckas resigned on Monday, automatically dissolving the entire cabinet. Now a new government must be formed and the existing three-party coalition agreement must be revised.

The ruling coalition currently holds 86 seats in the Lithuanian Seimas (parliament). The SDPL has 52 mandates, followed by Dawn over the Nemunas with 19 seats and the Democratic Union For Lithuania with fifteen.

44-year-old I. Ruginienė was first elected to parliament in 2024. Before starting her political career, she was the chairperson of the Lithuanian Trade Union Confederation. –0–

Brazil seeks WTO consultation over high US tariffs

BRASILIA, Aug. 7 (Xinhua) — Brazil has requested consultations at the World Trade Organization (WTO) over high tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump on Brazilian exports, the country's Foreign Ministry said Wednesday.

According to the agency, sending a request to the WTO is the first step in challenging tariffs before the process moves to the possible dispute resolution phase.

The request challenges tariffs imposed by Trump's executive orders on April 2 and July 30, 2025, based on several U.S. laws. The orders imposed tariffs of up to 50 percent on a wide range of Brazilian goods.

“By applying the above-mentioned measures, the United States is grossly violating the fundamental commitments that this country has made to the WTO, such as the most-favored-nation principle and the tariff limits agreed upon within the framework of this organization,” the Brazilian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

Bilateral consultations are the first formal step in the WTO dispute settlement system. They aim to help the parties find a negotiated solution to the dispute.

“The Brazilian government confirms its readiness to negotiate and hopes that consultations will contribute to a solution to the problem,” the ministry said in a statement.

The parties will agree on the date and place of the consultations in the coming weeks.

On Wednesday, Trump's new tariff on Brazil went into effect, which became the highest ever imposed by the US government.

Brazil's Ministry of Trade estimates that the change will affect about 35.9 percent of Brazilian exports to the United States.

The list of exemptions includes orange juice, commercial aircraft, oil, cars and parts, fertilizers and energy products. However, high tariffs are also imposed on a range of products, such as meat and coffee.–0–

119th Anniversary of Olimpiada Kozlova's Birth

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Official website of the State –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

On August 6, 1906, Olimpiada Vasilievna Kozlova was born. She headed our university for more than 35 years and is rightfully considered the founder of management education in Russia.

Olimpiada Vasilievna began her career at the age of 10 in the Pokrovskaya artel of fishermen. Later she worked as a turner at a factory, secretary of the village council, was elected secretary of the Moskvoretsky district committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks), and at the beginning of the Great Patriotic War she carried out a special task to form the Moscow divisions of the people's militia.

In 1950, Olimpiada Vasilievna was appointed rector of the Moscow Engineering and Economics Institute named after Sergo Ordzhonikidze (now the State University of Management). Olimpiada Vasilievna set the task of reorganizing the training of engineers and economists into the training of management personnel, which was implemented.

In 1966, it was at MIEI that the first domestic department on the fundamentals of management theory and practice was created, with Olimpiada Kozlova as its permanent head.

In 1969, for its great labor services to the state and society, MIEI was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, and in 1975 it was transformed into the first Moscow Institute of Management in the Soviet Union.

Today, GUU retains the title of the leading management university in the country and carefully preserves the historical memory of its heritage. Olympiada Kozlova played a vital role in the development of our university, laying the foundation for both the management approach in education and the unique campus in the South-Eastern Administrative District. Today, we would like to once again express our gratitude to Olympiada Vasilyevna for her undeniable contribution, dedication to her work and endless courage.

A state funeral will be held in honor of the acting president, the council said.

Nuclear safety threat remains at Zaporizhzhya NPP – IAEA

VIENNA, Aug. 7 (Xinhua) — Several artillery shots were heard near the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) on Wednesday, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said, highlighting the fragile nuclear safety situation at the facility.

According to a statement by IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi, the IAEA team working at the Zaporizhzhya NPP heard several artillery shots coming from very close to the facility.

"The signs of military activity taking place in the immediate vicinity of this major nuclear power plant are deeply worrying. As I have stated on numerous occasions, maximum military restraint near nuclear power plants is essential to prevent the risk of a nuclear accident," said R. Grossi.

The IAEA team members said they heard sounds of military activity “every day” last week. Several days ago, Zaporizhzhya NPP employees told the team about shelling that was taking place near the power plant’s transport department, located outside the facility.

The IAEA added that the nuclear power plant's external power supply situation also remains vulnerable, as the Zaporizhzhya NPP has been operating for three months thanks to a single external power line.

The UN nuclear safety watchdog has deployed staff to the Zaporizhzhya NPP in southern Ukraine since September 2022 to ensure nuclear safety. –0–
