Election era gone

a local news source.

Confirmation that, for the people of Montenegro, Djukanovic’s defeat was long overdue was seen in the massive spontaneous celebratory marches across the country. People launched fireworks and chanted insulting shouts against their former leader.

According to observers, the former Minister of Economic Development in the government of Zdravko Krivokapic, Yakov Milatovic, a representative of the Europe Now movement, won the Montenegrin presidential election with about 60 per cent of the vote, while Djukanovic won 40 per cent.

However, Milatovich’s victory will not affect the pro­Western foreign policy of Montenegro. While still a minister, Milatovich supported the imposition of sanctions against Russia, and in an interview with Western media he promised to fully implement all international obligations assumed.

DESTINUS: Already has two hydrogen prototypes.

Australia in 4 hours

NEW hydrogen engine technology being developed by Destinus could allow an aircraft to fly from Europe to Australia in only 4 hours and 15 minutes.

CDTI, the Spanish Centre for Technological Development and Innovation, has selected Destinus for its Aeronautical Technology Plan (PTA) project. The company has received €12 million to develop the first hydrogen­powered aircraft engine and promote the development of supersonic hydrogenfuelled flights.

The money given for the research and development of the engine comes from the European Commission’s Next Generation funds for the Spanish government, as reported on Thursday, March 30, by a news source.

Destinus already has two hydrogen prototypes ­ Jungfrau and Eiger ­ and is currently working on a gas turbine equipped with a hydrogen afterburner to be tested before the middle of this year.

Specifically, the aid from the Spanish government will be used for the design and construction of a test bench for engines with hydrogen as fuel.

With current planes, the journey from Europe to Australia takes approximately 20 hours.
