The Regional Government of the Azores granted time off to public employees in Angra do Heroísmo. This time off was granted due to the São Carlos Monday festival. The measure allows public workers not to have to work on that day. It is a local tradition that justifies granting this benefit to the region's employees.

Japan Defense Budget Reaches New High for 2027

Japan's Ministry of Defense has requested a budget of 8.9 trillion yen for fiscal year 2027, a new all-time high, potentially approaching 10 trillion if projects not yet disclosed are included. The increase in military spending reflects a gradual shift in the orientation of the country's military capabilities and raises questions about Japanese constitutional limits. Polls indicate that 76% of Japanese support maintaining the anti-nuclear principles and 77% reject any form of nuclear "sharing" with the United States. The evolution of Japan's defense policy has also drawn reservations from neighboring countries, in a context marked by security issues in East Asia.

Anti-immigration protests are an "alert" for the government, British police commissioner says

The British police commissioner, Michelle Skeer, considered the anti-immigration protests last weekend in Portsmouth and Dover as an "alert" for the government, highlighting the growing tensions over Channel crossings. The protests arise at a time when the British government assures a decline in immigrant arrivals, although human rights groups question these figures. The demonstrations reflect the growing discomfort of some of the British population with the executive's immigration policy.
