Trump's on-again, off-again approach to tariffs have sparked whipsaw moves in financial markets and most polls show Americans are concerned about Trump's handling of the economy Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told reporters that Trump had made the decision after meeting with domestic and foreign automakers Trump's goal is to bring more auto manufacturing to the United States "So we want to give the automakers a path to do that quickly efficiently and create as many jobs as possible," he said The move will ensure that the different types of tariffs charged by the administration don't stack up on imports of foreign cars The Wall Street Journal first reported the shift on Monday Importers of foreign auto parts will be able to get some reimbursement from the government for tariffs for the next two years The break will both reward domestic manufacturers while "providing runway" to those needing time to invest in domestic plants we didn't want to penalize them," Trump told reporters at the White House Trump's 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports kicked in last month, hurting the auto industry That was followed by a 25% tariff on imported cars imported car parts will also be hit with a 25% tariff (The tariff rules are different for cars imported from Mexico and Canada under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.) Automakers have complained the tariffs are too high, though the United Auto Workers has praised the auto tariffs because they say they will bring more manufacturing jobs back to the United States The administration has also slapped 10% across-the-board tariffs on imports, but abruptly paused higher country-by-country rates for 90 days — except for Chinese goods Bessent said that the administration had pinpointed "18 important trading relationships" for talks on tariffs "We will be speaking to all of those partners or at least 17 of them the over the next few weeks Many of them have already come to Washington," Bessent said South Korea and Japan had been substantive Bessent declined to comment on whether the administration was talking to Beijing on tariffs though he said the onus was on China to make a deal due to its reliance on the U.S He also suggested that serious talks had not yet begun with the European Union mentioning a digital services tax that some members had imposed on U.S "They have some internal matters to decide before they can engage in an external negotiation," Bessent said Become an NPR sponsor the Weser River will transform into a floating party zone The Nautical Night will offer unforgettable mini-cruises with top-notch sound breathtaking views of the illuminated skyline and a unique festival atmosphere on the open sea But that’s not all – the party cruises will take you straight to the fireworks display lighting up the night sky in spectacular colors and experience a night full of magic and unforgettable moments will make the deck shake with “I’ll House You” Let yourself be enchanted by the unique atmosphere on board as the fresh North Sea breeze fills the sails and NEUS delivers an electrifying soundtrack and enjoy the fireworks on board the GEESTEMÜNDE Get your tickets now and experience Nautical Night - a party like no other ⚓️Get Your Tickets Online for MV KOI ⚓️Get Your Tickets Online for MV HELGOLAND - to be announced ⚓️Get Your Tickets Online for MV GEESTEMÜNDE - to be announced documents and other media on this page may generally not be reused (All rights reserved).Individual pictures documents and other media on this page may be published under other licenses.Please note the corresponding markings in individual cases Congestion levels are set to rise at ports across Northern Europe – expect schedule disruption The Danish carrier warned its customers of “increasing congestion levels and operational disruptions,” highlighting Antwerp-Bruges and Bremerhaven as particular choke points According to maritime intelligence database eeSea 41% of the vessels at Antwerp are waiting for a berth with 52 more containerships on their way to the Belgian port In this episode of The Loadstar’s News in Brief Podcast host and news reporter Charlotte Goldstone ..

Just seconds after killing off the penalty, Markus Granlund got a breakaway for Genève and beat Maximilian Franzreb between the legs to make it 2-0 In the final minute of the opening period, Bremerhaven nearly got one back as Dominik Uher’s shot from the high slot looked labelled but Raanta robbed him with the glove Six minutes into the second period, Genève were handed their first two powerplays of the night when Fabian Herrmann was called for both tripping and hooking on the same sequence Vatanen put his team up 3-0 by sending a seeing-eye wrister from the point that sailed past a screened Franzreb Midway through the third period, Genève looked to increase their lead on the powerplay but Miha Verlič intercepted a pass and skated in alone on Raanta Bremerhaven killed off the penalty but with 7:18 to play, Genève went up 4-0 with Alessio Bertaggia converting the set-up by Marco Miranda. These two teams are now headed back to where they began this CHL season, as Bremerhaven beat Genève 3-2 back on Game Day 1 of the Regular Season.

erforschen Wissenschaftler und Wissenschaftlerinnen den Klimawandel in den Polarregionen finden Teilnehmende mit Hilfe von Experimenten heraus Teenager bis einschließlich 18 Jahre frei You may find further information about the calendar of events there The day kicked off splendidly for team Germany to the tune of a resounding victory over Slovakia in which the head coach Jeff MacLeod saw his team put on a 6-1 showing in front of a good 2,570 spectators in Bremerhaven They say you should never change a winning team and that’s exactly how MacLeod went about his business going with the exact line-up as in Thursday’s 3-0 victory over Austria “I think the intensity and sacrifice of every single one of our players today made the big difference,” explained coach MacLeod “We’re extremely happy about how our team went about its business in today’s game and how it’s simply improved in the days since we’ve been here The process is moving in exactly the right direction That’s exactly what we’ll be expecting of ourselves in tomorrow’s game against the Hungarians.“ It didn’t take long for a heavily cheered for Germany to get on the scoreboard with Franzsiska Feldmeier winning an offensive zone face-off and immediately swiping the puck over to Jule Schiefer who immediately diverted the puck into the net at 1:25 of the first period Lara Kluge cleanly won an offensive zone faceoff back to the point where defender Charlott Schaffrath immediately sent the puck to the net and over goaltender Andrea Risianova who was making her second consecutive start Things didn’t get any better for Slovakia when Germany used the tail end of a power play to gain a 3-0 lead when Svenja Voigt tipped in a Ronja Hark slapshot from the right face-off circle The goal fell at 5:48 of the first and ended up being the last of the period If you thought Slovakia would use the second period to mount a fiercer attack The team tightened up in the second period but didn’t manage to get one shot on goal it took 3 more penalties and had to swallow goal number 4 for Germany when once again Voigt tipped the puck in the net at 8.24 of the period this time after Carina Strobel had already tipped a Luisa Welcke slapshot Slovakia came out of the gates in the third period clearly ready to give it another push and were successful in beating German goaltender Sandra Abstreiter for the first time in the tournament when captain Janka Hlinkova who had scored the team’s only goal against Hungary redirected a Lucia Haluskova shot-pass from the right point at 3:13 of the period this would prove to be too little too late as Feldmeier scored at the 10:14 mark and then Lilli Welcke added a sixth tally at the 12:27 mark of the 3rd period Slovakia’s Olympic possibilities are now off the table and Germany heads into the final gameday at the top of the standings Abstreiter collected 18 saves in the victory 10 of which came in the third period alone ”The decisive factor today was that we capitalized on our chances at the beginning of the game That helped us gain the momentum right from the beginning,” stated forward Feldmeier the author of the team’s fifth goal and the player whose sly and astute assist on the first goal got the day off on the right track “This is why we deserved this victory we definitely loaded up on confidence today heading into tomorrow’s final contest Having the fans behind us like that was just incredible and gave us so much support We’ll use that as a building block for tomorrow as well.“ The second game of the day saw two teams knowing that neither could really afford to lose a point And the Austrians showed up with great determination After a number of chances and few shots on goal for both teams an incredible lifter of a pass from assistant captain Antonia Matzka from one blueline to the other sent star and captain Anna Meixner in on a partial breakaway putting the puck between the legs of Hungarian starter Selma Luggin who nonetheless got a piece of the shot before it went in.  it gave Austria the mental advantage heading into the second Hungary would however get things going in the second frame and got on the board at 3:15 of the second with a power play goal by Emma Kreizs who pounced on a rebound of a Fanni Gasparic shot from the left face-off circle defender Lotti Odnoga jumped on a turnover in the neutral zone and made her way straight to the net Slightly hooked from behind as she tried to make a move the puck nonetheless slid between goaltender Aniko Nemeth’s legs Austrian defender Emma Mortl threw a shot on goal from the point and it made its way in paving the way to a third period in which the two countries traded several top-flight chances although Hungary definitely took over the pace of the game and led the shot count 13-4 The contest would require overtime and eventually give viewers what might have been the loveliest goal thus far when 15-year-old Reka Hiezl was given a 3-on-3 pass near the offensive blueline by Franciska Kiss-Simon and proceeded to deke her way past two defenders and then the Austrian goaltender as well even if it meant leaving a point on the table “We obviously had a lot of pressure on us because we won yesterday and because we knew Austria was a really good team,” stated Hungarian forward Zsofia Pazmandi “We wanted to leave everything on the ice but at the end it was kind of like a deja vu moment because we had experienced an overtime at the worlds but this time it ended in our favor.” it all comes down to the final game tomorrow evening at 6 pm Now host Germany (6 points) will face

Jeglič played an important role with two goals and seven assists, helping his team in their journey to the Playoffs. Skellefteå’s Andreas Johnson has also been in excellent form tallying six goals and an assist across five games adding firepower to the Swedish side’s offence Both teams have shown resilience and skill in reaching the Playoffs each facing their ups and downs but proving themselves worthy contenders With everything on the line in this Round of 16 battle we can look forward to an intense and

collisions department Austria couldn’t find any way to gain a grip on Germany’s combination of skillful puck possession and strong board work over 60 minutes of play The Austrians also couldn’t figure out a way to get any rubber past Germany’s star goaltender Sandra Abstreiter who made 18 saves in leading Germany to the 2-0 shutout victory host Germany ends the first day of the IIHF Group I Women’s Ice Hockey Final Olympic Qualification tournament in Bremerhaven tied with Hungary atop the table.  the game kicked off with both teams somewhat feeling each other out before Germany began pushing things offensively taking a 14-5 lead in shots in the first period This was also due in part to Austria taking three penalties and needing to maneuver through the waters of shorthanded life while staving off the favored Germans It wasn’t until 3:03 of the second period when German forward Celine Haider was able to punch in the rebound after defender Tabea Botthof rifled a shot in from the right point This got things going for a German attack that continued to have the upper hand in controlling the flow it was often by pouncing on the odd error or miscue forcing Abstreiter to maintain her focus with a sharp save despite droughts in action along the way.  Things remained close as the period carried on until Hamburg-born forward Emily Nix pulled the puck off the boards using a Nicola Hadraschek pick to gain a better position in the slot before unleashing a monster of a backhand shot into the far the Austrians were hard-pressed to mount any true pressure in the third period only racking up five shots along the way several of which came once Austrian goalie Selma Luggin was pulled for the extra skater in the final two minutes of play The Germans had come out of the gate ready to close the door and even put up another 10 shots while keeping the puck on their sticks for longer stretches of the period.  the team stormed the ice with relief to celebrate the 2-0 victory one that clearly meant a bit more after Austria had surprisingly defeated Germany 3-0 in the Olympic qualifier just four years prior Germany will now have to start rooting for their neighbor to the south The first game of this event saw favorite Hungary spend over half the game warding off a determined Slovak team which had an 8-7 advantage in shots after the first period Things got even hotter when captain Janka Hlinkova got Slovakia on the board at 11:17 of the second period budding superstar Nela Lopusanova took a penalty for an illegal hit just eight seconds later and Hungary was able to capitalize on the power play thanks to an Alexandra Huszak shot It took a very curious goal at 3:22 of the third period to give Hungary a lead they’d never relinquish After Slovak netminder Andrea Risianova stopped a hard shot a rebound attempt by Kinga Jokai-Szilagyi popped up high over Risianova and then dropped back down behind her and into the goal the Slovak women went to work but couldn’t get anything to fly With the Slovak goaltender pulled in the last minute of play Hungarian captain Fanni Gasparics was able to slide in an empty-net tally to seal the deal.  Hungary now technically sees itself at the top of the standings with the most goals scored and the same differential as Germany Friday will serve as a day of rest and then action will continue on Saturday when Germany faces Slovakia and Hungary takes on Austria Should Germany and Hungary each be victorious then Sunday evening’s final game pitting the two will be all-decisive SAiL Bremerhaven 2025 will officially kick off

end of the second period, the score remained unchanged, with Bremerhaven forced into a defensive stance and successfully keeping Skellefteå off the scoreboard. Much of the credit went to Bremerhaven’s netminder, Maximilian Franzreb who held strong and maintained the shutout In the third period, Bremerhaven added one more goal. Nino Kinder found himself on a shorthanded breakaway and sent the puck into the net, extending the lead to 5-0. Skellefteå continued to press and even earned a penalty shot, but Franzreb blocked it once again Bremerhaven celebrated a dominant 5-0 victory putting them in an excellent position for the Return Game

free of charge there was an overwhelming sense of tension and great excitement heading into today’s action in Bremerhaven the final game of the tournament pit Germany against Hungary for a winner-takes-all final of the Group I Olympic Qualifying Games and the two teams came out of the gates scratching and clawing for every centimeter of ice each clearly hesitant to make any crucial mistakes Despite several golden opportunities along the way goaltenders Sandra Abstreiter and Aniko Nemeth warded off 5 and 8 shots respectively in the first period each keeping their teams track records clean It wasn’t until a power play at the 7:03 mark of the second period that the ice would be broken when Lilli Welcke carried the puck from the top of the right face-off circle and over the left side of the goal before slinging a shot past Nemeth’s right foot on the short side corner at the 7:39 mark German defender Ronja Hark took a penalty for an illegal check and at the 8:49 mark a wonderful tick-tack-toe play between Lotti Odnoga and then eventually Mira Seregely saw Hungary tie things up after Seregely caught a laser of a pass deked out a sliding Abstreiter from left to right and potted a backhander in the lower right-hand corner of the net The Germans stormed their net in victory while the Hungarians started jumping in celebration as they crowded around Taylor After having initially recognized the goal the team of referees huddled up and then eventually headed over to the statisticians' box to point out that the goal had taken place after the clock had run out It’s a bit of a heated rivalry and both teams were here to win I can’t say enough about our staff and our players It’s amazing,” explained coach MacLeod shortly after the national anthem was played and then ward off a heavy attack in this oh so important final match Our leadership stepped up in the locker room and calmed everyone down for the third period,” MacLeod continued we came together and asked for something from these players And now they’ve given what we asked for.” who was injured and missed out on the qualification tournament four years earlier We got the things done that we had to get done and I am so unbelievably proud of this team and that we did everything we needed to do to achieve this.” The nature of the games Germany and Hungary have played for several years now had shown that this would be a tight one and likely low scoring and it meant some cool heads and hopefully a pair of cool hands would be required to decide it “We knew we’re the better team We told ourselves that we just have to keep calm and do our thing And that’s what we did,” said Luisa Welcke - author of the game-winner - confidently “Making it to the Olympics has been a dream of mine since my childhood and I’m just plain ecstatic right now that we’ve done it and that this dream is going to come true.” this victory equates to a further step in the development of its women’s program for the past decade - and especially in recent months “The entire team surrounding coach Jeff MacLeod has been working meticulously to face this incredible challenge and was optimally prepared to do so we’re all the happier that this hard work has paid off and that we were both physically and mentally ready for this situation this is an important day that goes above and beyond the achievement of qualifying for the Olympics,” emphasized DEB sports director Christian Künast a team that’ll surely relive and analyze those final moments of the game numerous times in the coming days I’ve always said that this is a very special group of young ladies of hockey players,” said head coach Pat Cortina still visibly shaken by what took place in the final seconds of the event “This is the type of game that could’ve gone either way Germany’s Head of Women’s Hockey You naturally want to be part of that - perhaps more than anything else We didn’t get to be part of it in 2020 and now we’re absolutely ecstatic about being part of it next year It’s a testament to the work we’ve done and the path we’re on But we had incredible support tonight and there’s always that glimmer of hope and belief that a whole bunch of young ladies and girls in attendance and watching on television will be inspired to become part of the next wave of future Olympians an aspect that will continue to motivate us this time next year as well.” And then the next 12 months of concentrated work will begin in preparation for what this weekend was all about Teams Austria and Slovakia battled for third place in the day’s early match both having already been eliminated from qualification yesterday Austria clearly let go of some frustration skating and shooting its way to a convincing 8-2 victory

Stunde vor dem Spiel www.dieeisbaeren.de The Pinguins Bremerhaven trailed for a good portion of the game, but they kept getting their chances and eventually struck twice on a third-period powerplay, turning a 2-1 deficit into a 4-2 win over the Rouen Dragons The two teams traded goals in the first minute and a half then settled into more of a defensive battle Bremerhaven struck first, just 27 seconds after the opening faceoff. Off the rush, Žiga Jeglič passed across to Felix Maegaard Scheel, whose wrister beat Oskari Setänen between the legs Then Rouen tied it just over a minute later, and it was a brilliant individual effort by Tomas Simonson. After taking a long pass from Juho Tommila, the 21-year-old drove into the attacking zone down the left wing, then cut to the inside by putting a great move on the defenceman before beating Kristers Gudlevskis on a forehand deke Bremerhaven had the better of the chances for the rest of the period, particularly on a couple of powerplays, and then got a penalty shot early in the second period when Tommila was called for hooking. On the penalty shot, Christian Wejse tried to go five-hole on Setänen but this time the Finnish netminder closed the door Jared Dmytriw had a great chance for Rouen in the 28th minute when he broke in alone but was denied by Gudlevskis. Dmytriw would give the Dragons the lead before the period was done, however. Driving to the net through traffic, Mattéo Perdrix found his stick for the short-side re-direct with 4:09 on the clock Bremerhaven turned the game around by taking advantage of the CHL rules and scoring twice on the same powerplay The tying goal was Nicholas B. Jensen teeing up a one-timer from the point by Jan Urbas Then just 55 seconds later the Pinguins were in the lead This time it was Jeglič carrying the puck into the zone who went down low and passed in front to a trailing Wejse but the Dragons had to suddenly change their style of play and try to open it up and the Pinguins did a good job of protecting their lead An empty-net goal by Urbas helped secure three crucial points in their pursuit of a Playoff berth Langsam öffnen sich die Flügeltüren des Kamishibais der Vorhang wird zur Seite geschoben und die Geschichte beginnt bei uns in der

for all-day warning strikes among harbour workers in Hamburg and Bremerhaven “the strike began as planned with the early shift at 6.30 a.m.,” said a spokesperson for the Verdi trade union Verdi has announced full-day warning strikes in the port of Hamburg on Tuesday and Wednesday The union has also called for full-shift warning strikes in Bremerhaven on Tuesday (9 July) and Wednesday (10 July) starting with the second shift on Tuesday and ending with the first shift on Wednesday Employees at the Port of Hamburg last walked off the job at the beginning of June to emphasise their demands for higher wages The call for the work stoppage is explained by the fact that the Central Association of German Seaport Operators (ZDS) did not present a negotiable offer in the third round of negotiations “We were still far apart in the third round of negotiations The offer presented by the employers is not acceptable to us especially with regard to the wage increases on offer,” said Verdi negotiator Maren Ulbrich This Thursday (11 July) and Friday (12 July) the fourth round of collective bargaining will take place in Bremen There have already been strikes at the ports of Bremen Verdi
