A | Sri Lanka on Tuesday opened its fuel import and retail sales markets for firms belonging to oil-producing countries, a measure which the government hopes may ease crippling shortages that have paralyzed most of the economic activity in the island nation.,The move will also end the duopoly of state-owned Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC), controlling 80% of the fuel market, and Lanka IOC, a unit of Indian Oil Corporation.,The cabinet approved the proposal hours before a high-level delegation left for Qatar and Russia to arrange fuel for immediate needs.,Minister of Energy Kanchana Wijesekera said the firms would be able to operate without Forex requirements from the Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) and other banks.,“This exemption of Forex requirements will be permitted for the first few months of operations,” the minister said.,The cabinet has asked the CPC to provide its logistics, stocking, and distribution service to the foreign firm, suggesting that the government would privatize a debt-ridden state-run firm which controls around 80 percent of the market.,However, the refinery business will remain with the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation, which was operating with a monthly loss of approximately $90 million last year.,On Monday, the government restricted fuel sales to port, health services, and food transport until 11 July, citing the "unprecedented state of finance and foreign exchange crisis.”,“All other sectors are requested to stay at home and provide services online in this difficult time,” Bandula Gunawardena, the government spokesman, said.,Last Wednesday, Sri Lankan Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said the economy had “completely collapsed,” showing the inability to purchase fuel as shortages of essentials and electricity worsen.,The government is in talks with Qatar, Russia, and India to arrange for fuel until the forex crisis gets resolved. The island nation has also planned a credit conference with the participation of India, China, and Japan to arrange for loans for food and fuel purchases.,A negotiation with the International Monetary Fund is in progress and will likely be finalized by July.,Want to know more?

B | 08月26日讯 英国天空体育发文谈到阿尔瓦雷斯目前处境，并邀请西班牙记者Ruben Uría对小蜘蛛情况进行了分析，这位记者表示，阿尔瓦雷斯目前面临二选一的局面：留队或者加盟阿森纳。报道称，阿尔瓦雷斯仍坚持希望转会巴塞罗那，但马德里竞技坚决拒绝出售给西甲对手；马竞足球专家Ruben Uría认为，阿尔瓦雷斯唯一的出路是加盟森纳。在转会截止日期前，阿尔瓦雷斯必须选择两条路之一：留在马德里竞技，努力修复与球迷的关系；或者认真考虑转会阿森纳的可能性。马竞已再次告知他，不会将他卖给巴塞罗那——据西班牙可靠消息人士透露，这一点加上周日俱乐部球迷的反应，让他感到“崩溃”。据马竞专家、记者Ruben Uría称，目前局势“极其紧张”，他表示：“无论是米格尔·希尔·马林还是阿波罗董事会，都不想把球员卖给巴塞罗那，”他告诉天空体育新闻。“整个阿波罗董事会都支持马林的决定。阿尔瓦雷斯已经被告知了这一点。”据Ruben Uría称，阿森纳体育总监贝尔塔在阿尔瓦雷斯于西甲揭幕战被球迷嘘下场后，近几天一直与他的马竞保持着联系。
C | 但阿森纳需要阿尔瓦雷斯先把巴塞罗那的念头抛诸脑后，并表现出他真心想加入阿尔特塔的计划，之后才能进行任何严肃的谈判或提出报价。阿森纳现阶段并不看好能在9月1日之前完成这笔交易。阿尔瓦雷斯的心仍然属于巴塞罗那。问题是，在转会窗口即将关闭之际，他还会坚持这一想法吗？截止日期会对他产生影响吗？如果阿尔瓦雷斯改变主意，阿森纳随时准备并愿意接纳他，但目前来看，任何转会都显得非常不可能。如果阿尔瓦雷斯在截止日前改变想法并推动离队，据信马竞准备听取阿森纳约1.3亿英镑（1.5亿欧元）的报价。事实上，据Ruben Uría称，小蜘蛛身边的一些人认为，鉴于目前的氛围，他留在马竞的可能性越来越小。Ruben Uría还告诉天空体育新闻：“胡利安和他的经纪人认为，发生的一切都是马竞CEO希尔·马林的错，是他公开要求他们表态想要离开马竞。”“马竞方面则辩称，胡利安在签约时就清楚马竞在西蒙尼手下的踢法，清楚自己签的是什么合同以及合同条款，并且他们否认马竞曾告诉胡利安他可以离开去直接竞争对手那里。”“我们正在观望胡利安的事件将如何发展，观望阿森纳将如何反应，以及他们是否对这位阿根廷球员真的有诚意。马德里竞技不会将球员卖给巴塞罗那。”“我们今天的消息是，阿尔瓦雷斯的情况已经变得非常紧张，据几位可靠消息人士称，目前在这个关键的一周，只有两条路：留在马德里竞技履行合同，或者听取阿森纳的报价并签约这家伦敦俱乐部。胡利安将不得不做出他的决定。
