00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediain TV for your daily press release.
00:15The presidential elections are finally over yesterday in Croatia,
00:19with the large victory of the outgoing president Zoran Milanovic.
00:23Politico, the specialized news website,
00:26presents the winner of the poll as a pro-Moscow candidate,
00:30who won in the second round with 74.7% of the votes,
00:35far ahead of his opponent Dragan Primorac,
00:38the candidate of the HDZ, the right-wing party in power.
00:42Favourite, the Social Democrat, was very close to a victory
00:46from the first round, at which time he had 49.1%.
00:50On December 29th, Politico recalls,
00:53Zoran Milanovic remains the most popular politician in Croatia.
00:57His pro-Moscow and anti-Western statements contrast
01:00with the fact that he supervised the country's adhesion to the EU in 2013.
01:05As prime minister at the time, the online media specifies.
01:09The latter also indicates that Milanovic, in a position without real power,
01:13remains the most popular politician in the country.
01:16Prime Minister Andrei Plinkovic is in a delicate position
01:20since last November, and a corruption scandal involves his political background.

01:29Direction, the United States now, with a new heavy report,
01:33announced by the authorities after the fires that hit the city of Los Angeles,
01:38reports the International Courier, the French-speaking magazine,
01:42compiles the main lines of American media,
01:45since the fire report in progress in the City of Angels
01:48and passed to 24 dead and could continue to increase
01:51as investigators inspect the rubble.
01:54On the front, firefighters faced Sunday in the west of the city
01:59at a critical stage in their attempt to contain the Palisades fire,
02:03reports the American channel KTLA.
02:06In addition, an explosive increase in fire is possible,
02:09especially from Monday night to Wednesday, when these winds will rise,
02:13have alerted the weather services of the country.
02:16Quoted by the Los Angeles Times,
02:18the fear is that the flames are spreading on the other side of the mountains of Santa Monica,
02:23in the valley of San Fernando, one of the most populated centers in LA,
02:28adds the daily.
02:30The damage could reach 150 billion dollars,
02:33a cost that would make, according to Governor Gavin Newsom,
02:36one of the most serious natural disasters in the history of the United States,
02:40even if the human balance remains, for the moment,
02:42very inferior to that of Paradise in 2018 or Hawaii in 2023.
02:50The entourage of President-elect Donald Trump is not without tension
02:53in the approach of his return to power,
02:56while new friction is created between two of his supports,
02:59explains The Guardian.
03:01With Elon Musk since Christmas,
03:03Steve Bannon has sounded a new charge against the boss of Tesla and SpaceX,
03:08who has become the spokesman for his Make America Great Again movement.
03:12Trump's former chief strategist was caught by Musk in an interview
03:15with Elacerra's courier,
03:18remarked that he should return to South Africa.
03:22Why, in the name of white South Africans,
03:24the most racist people in the world,
03:26comment on everything that is happening in the United States?
03:29Steve Bannon, recalling the origins of the billionaire.
03:32At the origin of this dispute,
03:35for highly qualified workers,
03:38defended by Elon Musk and other tech bosses,
03:41they are denounced by the nationalist and anti-immigrant right
03:44that Steve Bannon embodies.
03:46But in the end, Trump finally put himself on Musk's side
03:49in this quarrel, reports the American press.
03:52And for the newspaper, Bannon's remarks reflect
03:54the increasingly vivid questions
03:56among some Trump supporters
03:58about the precise role that Elon Musk will play during his second term.

04:05More and more companies have understood
04:07that giving time to their employees
04:09promotes their involvement in work and creativity,
04:12writes an article in the Financial Times.
04:15But this is not enough,
04:17says the British daily Economist,
04:19who quotes the thesis, now often put into practice,
04:22of American economist Daniel Pink in his book
04:25The Truth about What Motivates Us, published in 2016.
04:29According to him, the key to motivation is work
04:32and autonomy.
04:33Making the same observation,
04:35a growing number of bosses give their employees more freedom
04:39to decide what they do in their work,
04:42in order to not only increase their satisfaction,
04:45but also their creativity and productivity.
04:48This trend was first observed in the tech sector,
04:52at Meta, which owns Facebook,
04:54or at the Australian software publisher Atlassian.
04:57These two companies regularly organize hackathons
05:00during which employees are free to work
05:03on what they want outside of their current projects.
05:06However, explains Linarine,
05:08head of coaching at Skillsoft,
05:11an RH technology company,
05:13at the border between freedom and suggestion,
05:16autonomy must not require
05:19neither management nor performance indicators,
05:22nor competitive remuneration.
05:27This concludes this press release.
05:29Thank you all for watching.
