VIENNA Cheap Under Armour Basketball Shoes , Dec. 31 (Xinhua) -- On the 20th anniversary of Austria's European Union accession, Chancellor Werner Faymann has called the membership profitable for the country.
In a press release this week Faymann said Austria has "profited strongly from a unified Europe," despite there still being challenges to overcome together.
The economic profits have been strong as 70 percent of Austrian foreign trade is with other EU member states, he said, but added at the same time there exists the persistent challenge of pushing for a "fair and just Europe."
This is something that has taken on extra meaning in light of events such as the Ukraine crisis Cheap Under Armour Running Shoes , he said, and meant Europe must engage in reaching political solutions to crises in neighboring countries.

These are however things that can only be achieved through unified politics, he added Cheap Under Armour Youth Shoes , and along with further financial market regulation, combating tax fraud and speculation, this social dimension is of currently of chief priority in the EU, Faymann said.

BUENOS AIRES, July 21 (Xinhua) -- A controversial agreement which saw the Argentinean government pay football clubs to show games live on public channels has ended, after generating a storm of controversy.
On Wednesday, the government announced that it would allow football clubs to negotiate new broadcasting contracts with private media groups. The only condition is that whatever channels win the right of broadcasting, Argentinean football must do so for free until 2019, a clause which may make many think twice due to the millions channels could hope to collect under the new contract.
In 2009, Julio Grondona, the former president of the Argentinean Football Association (AFA), signed a contract with the government of Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, giving the state the right to all television rights for the top Argentinean division.
This led to a legal fight between the government and the country's largest media group, Grupo Clarin, which had held those broadcast rights since 1991.
The "Football for All" program was intended to allow all Argentineans to enjoy football matches for free on public television. However, this was seen as a massive burden for the government, given its precarious finances.
An investigation then found that much of the money involved was embezzled, leading to the arrest of three senior government officials and a number of AFA leaders, including Luis Segura, Grondona's successor.
In total, between 2009 and 2015, the Argentinean government paid out around 8 billion pesos (533 million U.S. dollars) for those rights.
