Americans are looking for an answer to this question right now. They are electing a new head of state, who will take office in January next year. According to polls, the result of the fight between the Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and her Republican opponent Donald Trump is very close, and that is why both fought for the voter until the last moments. What is the atmosphere of the government in America a few hours before the elections, how are the preferences of individual candidates developing, what did they try to convince the undecided, and what will happen after the elections? In the Dobré ráno podcast, Eva Frantová asks Branislav Ondrášik, an expert in political communication and at the same time a colleague of the SME newspaper, who is located directly in the United States. BRIEF NEWS: Maroš Šefčovič for the fifth time defended his skills as a European Commissioner before MEPs. Over the course of several hours, he was asked about trade contracts, competitiveness and transparency of institutions. MP Miriam Lexman from KDH came with a more critical question about Fico's government after two and a half hours. She asked how the priorities of Šefčovič's mandate go together with what Fico is doing in China. Šefčovič had two minutes to answer, a large part of which he avoided the question and talked about how he and Lexmann have known each other for a long time. He then reiterated that one must be cautious towards China and finally added that his personal history says that he has always worked for the European interest. Doctors' resignations are increasing, currently there are more than 3,200, said the head of the Medical Trade Union Association, Peter Visolajský. He clarified that the medical trade unionists are ready to resolve matters at the negotiating table, but neither the government nor the Ministry of Health has yet contacted them regarding the meeting. The department said negotiations will continue. http://domov.sme.sk/c/23406582/vypove...
