 Rosatom Discussing Nuclear Projects With Niger & Ethiopia "Rosatom is open to discussing possible forms of cooperation and is prepared to offer modern, reliable, and safe technologies," the Russian state corporation stated, Sputnik reported. Cooperation between the parties is currently focused on establishing working mechanisms and defining project parameters, with decisions being taken gradually in line with the host country’s priorities and international safety standards, Rosatom said. Rosatom is in dialogue with more than 20 African countries on such areas as the construction of large and small nuclear power plants, nuclear science and technology centers, and the development of uranium deposits.

VISITORS TO ROME’S TREVI FOUNTAIN WILL FACE AN ENTRY FEE STARTING IN 2026.(PHOTO).


Visitors to Rome’s Trevi Fountain will face an entry fee starting in 2026

Starting Feb. 1, most tourists visiting Rome’s famous Trevi Fountain will be required to pay a small entry fee, while locals and certain visitors will be exempt.

The fee is set at €2, about $2.34, allowing tourists to get a close-up view of the Baroque fountain and its statues. Visitors can still toss coins into the fountain—a tradition said to ensure a return to Rome—once they have paid the fee.

Rome Mayor Roberto Gualtieri described the charge as a “paltry” sum and said it will help authorities manage crowds at the historic 18th-century site, which can hold no more than 400 people at a time. The fountain attracted 9 million visitors last year, and officials expect the fee will slightly reduce crowds while generating an estimated €6 million ($7 million) annually.

Exempt from the charge are Rome residents, children under 5, and people with disabilities, along with their companions. Tourists may still view the fountain from a distance without paying. Coins tossed into the fountain are periodically collected and donated to the Caritas Catholic charity.

Officials also plan to introduce similar fees at other attractions in Rome, so visitors are advised to plan ahead and be prepared for small admission costs at multiple sites.
