The Hungarian goverment on Monday announced plans to produce the Chinese-developed Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine locally.
Hungary is the only EU country to inoculate its citizens with the Chinese jab after domestic regulators approved its use.
Speaking in China, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said officials would open a planned €157 million ($193 million) vaccine plant in the eastern town of Debrecen.

Decarbonising Food – Making the case for Green Fertilizers
The fertilizer industry has identified the most promising technologies for making green fertilizers. The challenge is to make the business case for decarbonised products. This can be achieved by driving down the cost and addressing technical challenges on the supply side at the same time creating a market for premium food products with a low-carbon footprint.
Today, 50% of global food production is possible thanks to mineral fertilizers. But its production is energy-intensive, with the production of ammonia being responsible for about 5% of the world gas consumption. To decarbonise this process, the fossil fuels used to produce ammonia (a key component of mineral fertilizers) must be replaced by renewable energy. The so-called green ammonia could help decarbonise food production through low-carbon fertilizer.

European Aircraft Industry: Airbus to scrap production of A380 superjumbo around 2021 - by Tim Hepher
Europe's Airbus announced plans to scrap production of the A380
superjumbo on Thursday, abandoning its dream of dominating the skies
with a cruiseliner for the 21st century after years of lacklustre sales.
The world's largest airliner, with two decks of spacious cabins and room for 544 people in standard layout, was designed to challenge Boeing's legendary 747 but failed to take hold as airlines backed a new generation of smaller, more nimble jets.

Colombia: Potential Colombian cocaine production jumps 31 percent
Illegal coca plantations
in Colombia reached record levels last year following a 17 percent
increase from 2016 to around 423,000 acres (171,000 hectares), the
United Nations said on Wednesday.
The UN Office on Crime and Drugs (UNODC) said that translated to a potential 31 percent increase in cocaine production from last year to almost 1,400 tons.
Coca leaf is the primary ingredient in the production of cocaine and current plantations generate 33 percent more leaves than they did in 2012.
"I want to express my deep concern about the amount of money that is moving around illicit drugs," said Bo Mathiasen, the UNODC representative to Colombia, at a press conference in Bogota.
Colombia remains way ahead of the rest of the world in terms of illegal coca plantations, while it is also the top producer of cocaine, much of it destined for the United States, the biggest consumer of the white powder.

Oil Supplies: No relief in sight as oil hits five-year low - by Jeffrey Jones
Crude oil skidded to a 5 1/2-year low as the Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Countries showed no sign it would step in to rescue prices that have
dropped to levels forcing deep spending cuts throughout the oil industry.
In Canada, energy companies that have recently reduced their 2015 capital expenditure budgets by double-digit percentages will likely have to claw back spending again if prices remain in the current range for much longer.
Crude prices began the day in positive territory against a backdrop of supply disruption due to violence in Libya, but market fears resurfaced that crude is still too plentiful as the outlook for demand weakens.
U.S. benchmark West Texas Intermediate oil fell $1.12 (U.S.) to settle at $53.61 a barrel, its lowest since May, 2009. U.S. crude has lost roughly half its value since June, and some analysts see little meaningful recovery in prices until the second half of 2015.
