Two Taiwanese radiological organizations have been forced to change their names to "Chinese Taipei" in an international medical society following pressure from the World Health Organization
as the global death toll from the coronavirus approaches 2 million (WHO). "The International Society of Radiographers and Radiological Technologists (ISRRT) has compelled the Taiwan Society of Radiological Technologists (TWSRT, 中華民國醫事放射學)
and the Taiwan Association of Medical Radiation Technologists (TAMRT, 中華民國醫事放射師公會全國聯合會 ) to incorporate "Chinese Taipei" into their membership names. The WHO's pressure to follow its "policies and procedures." was the reason the ISRRT gave for the name change.
The ISRRT stated that it had received letters in June and December from the WHO complaining that the naming convention used by the ISRRT's website and materials "do not appear consistent with WHO's policies and practices."

The global health organization then demanded that the ISRRT change any references to Taiwan to "Taiwan, China." The two organizations declared in a joint statement released on Dec. 23 on the TWSRT website and TAMRT Facebook page that they are protesting the move.
They promised to continue negotiating with the Taiwanese government to get the request for the name change rescinded.

Northkoreas foregin policy,

Most important Nortg korea follows its 주체(Juche) ideologi, wich in short means self-reliance (Independent for itsself) based on historical inavsions by other nations, China,Japan,USA. Causing a genral hostlitiy against US allies.
-Good relations can be saied are
1.China wich is the life source and only one who can curb North korea, but China is in need of North korea as China dosnt want the USA via South korea at its border and so China dose everything to maintain the status of NK. China cant comdem NK
2014 China condemed NK for a nuclear test wich was btw recorded as a 5.3 earthquake. But at that time Kim Jong-un had to show strength to get full controll of the army and curb rivals. NK gets everything needed via China also its the cause of always possible collaps with news.

In Germany, the postal and delivery services are still quite reliable despite the pandemic. The situation is completely different in Great Britain: The British Post can hardly deliver letters and parcels in 28 areas across the country.
In these regions - 27 in England and one in Northern Ireland - there are too few staff available because many employees are sick or are in self-isolation, said the Royal Mail. In some places people have been waiting for broadcasts for more than a month,
as reported by the British media. Now the fear is growing, especially among the elderly, that they will not get their appointment for a corona vaccination on time.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson threatens to come under pressure because of a possible breach of the corona rules. The conservative politician was spotted on his bike in Olympia Park in the east of the British capital over the weekend -
more than eleven kilometers from his official residence on Downing Street. According to the lockdown rules, however, one should only move in the local area. The debate comes at an inopportune time for Johnson:
In view of the high number of cases, the government is trying everything to get people to comply with the rules better. How far you can drive your car away from your own apartment in lockdown has been the subject of bitter discussions in the country in recent days.
