The presence of “negative” social relationships in one’s environment may be associated with accelerated biological aging, according to research cited by Psychology Today.
In the study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), the authors used epigenetic “clocks” (age assessment based on DNA methylation) based on saliva samples and social network data from more than 2,300 participants in Indiana. According to the abstract, each additional “hassler” (a person who causes stress and creates difficulties) was statistically associated with approximately 1.5% faster aging and approximately 9 months “older” in biological age; associations with markers of inflammation and multimorbidity were also noted.
Experts emphasize that such results describe a relationship rather than prove a causal effect: biological aging is simultaneously influenced by stress, lifestyle, and health. Previous studies have also linked chronic stress to markers of cellular aging, including telomere changes. Additional work shows that negative and positive social experiences may be associated with accelerating or slowing epigenetic aging.
Die Ukraine hat in den letzten Jahren ihre Präsenz auf dem deutschen Markt für gefrorene Himbeeren deutlich ausgebaut, der zusammen mit Polen nach wie vor ein wichtiger Absatzmarkt für ukrainische Beeren ist und die Exporttrends für die Branche bestimmt, berichtet der Verband „Yagidnyctvo Ukrainy“.
Nach Angaben des Verbandes führte das Wachstum des ukrainischen Angebots zuvor zu einem Rückgang der durchschnittlichen Importpreise in Deutschland um fast die Hälfte.
Gleichzeitig kam es 2025 aufgrund von Ernteeinbußen in der Ukraine, Polen und Serbien zu einer Verknappung auf dem europäischen Markt, was die Preise in Deutschland auf das Niveau von 2022 steigen ließ, wie der Verband feststellt und dabei die Sensibilität des Marktes gegenüber Produktionsausfällen bei den drei wichtigsten Lieferanten, darunter die Ukraine, betont.
According to Serbian Economist, Montenegro has extended temporary protection for people from Ukraine until March 4, 2027, according to a decision published in Službeni list Crne Gore No. 27/26.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Montenegro has called on Ukrainian citizens whose foreigner’s certificate with temporary protection status is valid until March 4, 2026, to contact the territorial division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at their place of residence to exchange the document and extend their status. For those applying for the first time after the decision comes into force, temporary protection will also be granted until March 4, 2027.
According to the Montenegrin Ministry of Internal Affairs, since the decision on temporary protection came into force (March 14, 2022) until March 2, 2026, 15,820 applications have been submitted, of which 14,893 have been approved.
Temporary protection in Montenegro entitles beneficiaries to legal residence and access to basic rights, including employment, medical care, and education, in accordance with national legislation. The decision was taken in light of the extension of temporary protection for persons from Ukraine at the EU level until March 4, 2027.

US President Donald Trump has published a list of initiatives on social media under the title “SAVE America Act,” in which he calls for the introduction of mandatory ID checks for voters and documentary proof of US citizenship.
Meanwhile, Congress is considering a Republican bill called the SAVE America Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act), which requires documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections and introduces stricter voter identification rules, as well as separate requirements for procedures related to absentee/mail ballots. The House of Representatives passed the bill in February, but it has not yet advanced in the Senate.
In his post, Trump also stated the need to ban mail-in voting, except in cases of illness, disability, military service, or travel. At the same time, experts point out that a complete ban on “universal” mail-in ballots is not included in the text of the bill, although such an idea has been discussed.
In addition to electoral provisions, Trump mentioned measures concerning the participation of men in women’s sports, as well as sex reassignment surgery for minors. According to his wording, such interventions should only be possible with the written consent of the parents.
These points are not related to the voting rules bill and are presented as political demands in a single list.
