PRIZE The winner of the
Nobel Prize in literature is to be announced today. Last year, the recipient
was French writer Annie Ernaux for the courage and clinical acuity with which
she uncovers the roots, estrangements and collective restraints of personal
memory. The 2023 Nobel season will continue with the peace prize on October 6.
The Riksbank Sveriges prize in economic sciences in memory of Alfred Nobel will
be announced on October 9.








IMF The priorities of the Romanian government should
be to improve tax collection at the state budget and the elimination of the
fiscal exemptions, the IMF experts said in Bucharest at the end of their
periodical assessment mission. The IMF delegation has in the past two weeks assessed
Romania’s fiscal and economic policies, forecasting a 2.3% economic growth, a
budget deficit of 6% and an inflation rate, expected to go down from 7% to 4%,
but at the end of the next year.






SUMMIT Romania’s President Klaus Iohannis went to Granada to
participate in the 3rd European Political Community Summit.
According to the presidential administration, high on the talks agenda are
digital transition, artificial intelligence and security. Iohannis will
co-preside together with the Norwegian Prime Minister, Jonas Gahr Store, a series
of round table talks on environment-related issues, and climate change.
Tomorrow Iohannis will be attending the informal meeting of the European
Council, hosted in Granada by the Spanish presidency of the European Union. The
meeting’s main objective is the launch of the reflection process over the EU’s
future strategic agenda and some issues related to defence, resilience and
competitiveness, the EU’s global commitment, migration and enlargement.








ACCIDENT A family of two Romanians with two children residing in
Germany is among the victims of the road accident involving a bus near Venice, which
left 21 dead and 15 wounded. The vehicle fell off a bridge and caught fire. All
the dead have been identified and the municipality decreed three days of
mourning on Wednesday. Among those killed there are a baby and two Romanian girls,
13 and 8 years old. The two and their parents were spending their holiday in
Mestre. The real cause of the accident remains unknown; it’s either the driver was
ill or he was talking on the phone. The prosecutor’s office in Venice has
opened an investigation into the accident.
