AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoHeatwave, Slovakia in the spotlight: A Europe-wide heatwave is breaking records again and again, with Germany hitting a new all-time high of 41.5°C and Slovakia reporting its warmest night on record (26.3°C). Authorities across the region are warning of severe heat stress, while hospitals face pressure and events get cancelled. Climate context: Scientists say this kind of extreme heat would have been virtually impossible decades ago without human-driven climate change. Travel rules with a cultural ripple: New Spain entry rules for UK passport holders under the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) mean passport scans, photos, and fingerprinting for most adults—though children under 12 are exempt. Culture & arts abroad with Slovak links: Illusion Art Museum Prague unveiled new works including Slovak digital artist Andrej Boleslavský, adding to its interactive illusion-kinectic program. Education & culture exchange: The OECD says Slovakia should keep reforming education—improving student performance, reducing inequalities, and strengthening teaching—while forecasting modest growth. Sports spotlight: Slovak athlete Emma Zapletalová suffered a defeat at a Zagreb meet, while the KU Chamber Choir won top honours at an international competition in Žilina.
