Malta Daily reporting LIVE from the United Nations Headquarters in New York City.

On Thursday, Minister for Foreign and European Affairs and Trade Ian Borg addressed the Security Council Briefing on Cooperation between the UN and regional and subregional organisations at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City.

During the intervention in his capacity as a representative of Malta, Borg stated that Malta, as a proud EU member, strongly supports enhanced cooperation between the European Union and the United Nations.

Borg explained how the European experiment that is the EU was born from the ashes of the Second World War and exemplifies the peace, stability, prosperity, and growth brought forth by multilateralism.

“In this midst, we have a responsibility to ensure that where possible regional and international organisations come together to provide that much needed convergence and collaboration,” the Minister stated.

Addressing the event, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell discussed how a rise in power politics has led to more distrust, point-scoring and vetos. The EU High Representative expressed that the price is being paid problems not solved, conflicts that fester and people left at the mercy of events.

Prior to expressing the EU’s commitment to peace and security, sustainable development and human rights, Borrell did state that we are facing a ‘global emergency’ and that the “United Nations and the multilateral systems are under threat like they never were before.”

Here’s who is most likely to become a billionaire according to astrology

Here's who is most likely to become a billionaire according to astrology
Feb 23 2023 Share

Using available birthdate information for the top 300 billionaires on the Forbes Billionaires 2022 rich list, the UK’s Cashlfoat ranked how common each zodiac sign was among the world’s wealthiest people. 

And even though astrology has long been widely considered to not be very scientific, it might bode well for Libra, Pisces and Taurus reading this to pay closer attention. 

That’s right – according to this data mining ‘research’, people born under the zodiac sign of Libra are the most likely to become a billionaire.

Well, more accurately, the Libra sign occurs in 12% of these billionaires, or around 32 of the world’s wealthiest. 

  • Libra – 12%
  • Pisces – 11%
  • Taurus – 10%
  • Leo – 9%
  • Aries – 8%
  • Virgo – 8%
  • Gemini – 8%
  • Aquarius – 7.5%
  • Cancer – 7.5%
  • Sagittarius – 7.5%
  • Scorpio – 6%
  • Capricorn 5.5%

They were followed by Pisces and Taurus at 11 and 10 percent respectively. Meanwhile it’s unfortunate news for Capricorn which registered the lowest ranking at 5.5%. 

However, despite being the most common sign, Libra did not feature among the 10 wealthiest billionaires. The second richest woman in the world, daughter of Walmart found Sam Walton, Sam Walton is a Libra. 

Facebook co-foudner Mark Zuckerberg is a Taurus and became the youngest self-made billionaire at the age of 23. Meanwhile, the world’s current richest man alive, Bernard Arnault, is a Pisces, the second most common zodiac sign.

And if you’re wondering, former richest man alive Elon Musk is a Cancer, which ranked in 9th place at 7.5%. What are you?
