Trump in Davos: ‘America First’ Does Not Mean ‘America Alone’
United States President Donald Trump repeated his ‘America First’ message in a speech Friday to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. But he said although his policies seek to put America first, this “does not mean America alone.” “When the United States grows, so does the world,” Trump said. He added that U.S. economic growth, creativity and innovation has led to the creation of “countless jobs around the globe.” The World Economic Forum is a not-for-profit organization established in 1971. The yearly meeting is attended by world political and business leaders, including many heads of state. Trump’s comments about his ‘America First’ policies were expected at the gathering. But some experts were unsure how the theme would be received: the Davos meeting traditionally centers on global economic growth. Trump said the U.S. economy had improved during his first year in office. He pointed to the creation of 2.4 million jobs, dropping unemployment rates and record highs in the stock market. This growth, Trump said, had created a great chance for global investment in America. “I'm here to deliver a simple message: There has never been a better time to hire, to build, to invest and to grow in the United States. America is open for business and we are competitive once again.” However, Trump said he believes the current international trading system is unfair. He said it does not reward nations that “play by the rules.” “We cannot have free and open trade if some countries exploit the system at the expense of others. We support free trade, but it needs to be fair, and it needs to be reciprocal. Because in the end, unfair trade undermines us all.” Trump also spoke about the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade agreement. The U.S. president said he is willing to negotiate trade deals individually or as a group with nations in that agreement. Last year, Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which includes 11 Pacific area nations. Trump said the U.S. already has agreements with several member nations. He added that the U.S. would consider negotiating with others, as long as “it is in all of our interests.” Before his trip to Davos, Trump signed an executive order that placed import taxes on washing machines and solar panels. The order calls for a 30 percent tax on imported solar panels. A 20 percent tax will be placed on the first 1.2 million imported washers in the first year. A 50 percent tax will be placed on additional imported washers. China and South Korea quickly condemned the action. U.S. solar industry officials also criticized the move. They predicted the new import taxes would lead to thousands of job losses and price increases. While at the Davos meeting, Trump also held talks with the leaders of Britain, Israel, Switzerland and Rwanda. I’m Bryan Lynn.

US Gymnastics Officials Asked to Resign After Abuse Scandal
U.S. Olympic officials have called for the resignations of all directors of USA Gymnastics, the organization that selects and trains Olympic gymnasts. The demand came Wednesday, the same day former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar was sentenced to up to 175 years in prison for molesting more than 150 women and girls. Among Nassar’s victims were several American gymnasts who won Olympic medals. In an open letter, the head of the U.S. Olympic Committee, or USOC, Scott Blackmun, first apologized to all victims for having suffered as part of the “tragedy” of abuse. He said the USOC was sorry for the “pain caused by this terrible man.” In addition, he admitted that gymnasts “were not provided a safe” environment to seek their sports dreams. Blackmun said the scandal showed the culture of the sport must change, and new leadership was required. The USOC has demanded that all current USA Gymnastics directors resign. USA Gymnastics announced earlier this week that three board members had stepped down. But Blackmun said all 18 remaining directors must also resign. The USOC letter also said it had decided to launch its own independent investigation “to examine how an abuse of this proportion” could have gone undiscovered for so long. More resignation In another reaction to the scandal, Michigan State University - where Nasser worked as a doctor - announced President Lou Anna Simon’s resignation. There had been growing pressure for Simon to step down in recent months. Many victims accused the university of mishandling the accusations about Nassar. In her resignation letter, Simon said as tragedies are politicized, blame is often the result. She said she understood that as president, she was a natural center of the anger. After sentencing Nassar in a Michigan court for up to 175 years, Judge Rosemarie Aquilina said, “I just signed your death warrant.” She added: “You do not deserve to walk outside a prison ever again. You're a danger, you remain a danger.” The 54-year-old Nassar had already been serving a 60-year prison term on federal child pornography charges. He faces another sentencing hearing later this month on three more criminal sexual charges. Olympians speaking out In court, the judge had allowed more than 150 women and girls to describe their abuse experiences involving Nassar. One of them was U.S. Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman. “You lied to me and manipulated me…” Raisman said in a statement directed at Nassar. "I am also here to tell you to your face Larry: That you have not taken gymnastics away from me. I love this sport,” she added. “And that love is stronger than the evil that resides in you, and those who enabled you to hurt many people.” Another Olympic gold medalist, Jordyn Wieber, said even though she is one of his victims, “I do not, and will not, live my life as one. I’m an Olympian.” Gold medalist Simone Biles came forward as one of Nassar’s victims on Twitter earlier this month. In the post, she said she refuses to let the “horrific” experience define her. “I have promised myself that my story will be much greater than this and I promise all of you that I will never give up. I will compete with all my heart and soul every time I step in the gym.” On Wednesday, Biles praised Judge Aquilina for the way she handled the trial and sentencing. “Thank you, you are my Hero,” she tweeted. Speaking to the other survivors of Nassar’s abuse, she added: “He will no longer have the power to steal our happiness or joy. I stand with every one of you.” Nassar remained silent and showed no emotion during the sentencing hearing. At one point he did read a short statement, at times turning around to face victims seated in the courtroom. He said the victims' statements had “shaken me to my core” and that “no words” could describe how sorry he was. “I will carry your words with me for the rest of my days,” he said. Although Nassar's work with gymnasts received the most attention, the accusations against him happened with athletes in several other sports over a period of 25 years. Former gymnast Rachel Denhollander was the first woman to publicly accuse Nassar. She says he molested her when she was 15 years old. The sexual abuse involving Nassar – as well as USA Gymnastics coaches - was first made public in 2016 in a series of reports published by The Indianapolis Star. After a major investigation, the newspaper reported that USA Gymnastics repeatedly failed to report accusations of abuse. I’m Bryan Lynn.

Everyday Grammar: Put Prepositions in Their Place
English learners know that prepositions can be difficult to master. There are 94 one-word prepositions in English, and about 56 prepositions with two or more words, called “complex prepositions.” This adds up to 150 chances to make mistakes. We cannot, of course, explain the small differences between all 150 prepositions here. We can, however, provide you with a few explanations of different prepositions that use one particular verb: provide. Provide (someone) with: When provide is followed by an indirect object, English speakers use the preposition “with.” Providing (someone) with something means to give something wanted or needed. Here is an example sentence, written by U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama: “Room to Read provides girls with scholarships that cover the cost of housing, food, and books.” In this sentence, “girls” is the indirect object and “scholarships” is the direct object. Provide for: Another preposition with the same verb is “provide for.” “Provide for,” in general, means to make whatever is necessary for someone available to him or her. We often use this expression when we talk about parents providing for their family. In a VOA Learning English story about a Cambodian-American filmmaker, we used the preposition in this way: “She says changes such as migration away from rural areas are allowing more women to find work and provide for their families.” This preposition can also be used in other ways. “Provide for” can mean to make it possible for something to happen in the future. For example, in our story about water shortage in California, we wrote, “They say it [California] needs to find a way to provide for the growing need for water.” Provide (something) to/for: When “provide” is followed by a direct object, English speakers can use the prepositions “to” or “for.” Provide (something) to/for (someone) means that you deliver or give something to someone. For example, “The company provides health insurance to all of its employees.” “Health insurance” is the direct object and “employees” is the indirect object. In this example, we also could have said “The company provides health insurance for all of its employees.” Both of these sentences are correct, but it is more common to use “provide (something) for” than “provide (something to)” someone. The expression using “to” is rather new to American English, according to the Internet application Google Ngrams. Google Ngrams is an app that shows general changes in English usage by searching all the words in Google’s digital books. The graph on Ngram for “provide (something) to” shows it was hardly ever used before 1960. Compare that to the Ngram graph for “provide (something for).” The expressions appear more often. The expressions also appeared much earlier, around 1920. They were used then almost as often as they are used now. Understanding English prepositions can be difficult, even for native speakers! But we hope that we have been able to provide assistance to all of our listeners and readers. I’m Kelly Jean Kelly. Jill Robbins wrote this story for Learning English. Ashley Thompson was the editor. ______________________________________________________________ Words in This Story prepositions - n. a word or group of words that is used with a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase to show direction, location, or time, or to introduce an object direct object - n. a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase which indicates the person or thing that receives the action of a verb indirect object - n. a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase that occurs in addition to a direct object after some verbs and indicates the person or thing that receives what is being given or done

US Aircraft Carrier to Visit Vietnam
A United States Navy aircraft carrier is expected to make a port visit to Vietnam soon, U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said Thursday. Mattis met in Hanoi with Vietnamese Communist Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong. He said, “Thank you for the increasing partnership with our aircraft carrier coming in to Da Nang here in March.” Da Nang was the landing site for the first American troops to arrive in Vietnam in 1965. The city recently hosted a gathering of world leaders at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation. It would be the first such visit from an aircraft carrier since the Vietnam War ended. Smaller Navy vessels have visited Vietnam, as relations between the two countries have improved. The planned visit to Da Nang comes as tensions have again increased in the South China Sea. Last week, China accused a U.S. warship of violating its sovereignty by sailing off the disputed Scarborough Shoal. The U.S. said it was a usual “freedom of navigation” operation. During his meeting with Vietnamese Defense Minister Ngo Xuan Lich, Mattis said, “We recognize that relationships never stay the same. They either get stronger or they get weaker, and America wants a stronger relationship with a stronger Vietnam.” His visit also included a meeting with the Vietnamese president. Earlier Thursday, Mattis visited Tran Quoc, one of Vietnam’s oldest Buddhist temples. The temple stands on a small island at the edge of a lake in Hanoi. That is where American politician John McCain was shot down in 1967. Mattis arrived just days before Vietnamese celebrate Tet, the Lunar New Year. Next week will mark the 50th anniversary of the Tet Offensive. On January 30, 1968, Communist North Vietnam launched attacks throughout targets in the South. The offensive turned American public opinion against the war and led to its withdrawal seven years later. I'm Jonathan Evans.

Doctors Have a New Tool to Identify Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. Early discovery and treatment can save lives. Scientists are working new ways to recognize breast cancer while at the same time studying existing methods of identification to find out what is best. Take mammograms, for example. During the test, a technician takes an X-ray picture of a woman’s breast as it is pressed between two glass plates. A radiologist then examines the image for signs of cancer. Mammograms are the best tools available for recognizing the disease. The number of breast cancer deaths has fallen by 30 percent in the United States since doctors began offering mammography in the 1970s. The reason: the chances of beating cancer are higher when the disease is found early. Yet mammograms are not perfect. A mammogram can look normal even when cancer is present. It can also look abnormal, or unusual, when cancer is not present. Traditional mammograms are two dimensional (2-D). They show length and width. But for the 40 to 50 percent of women with dense breasts, it is difficult for radiologists to see cancer on 2-D images. Three-dimensional mammograms provide a more detailed look. So women with dense breasts may get better results from a 3-D mammogram, said Otis Brawley of the American Cancer Society. “It might find disease that we need to find that two-dimensional does not,” Brawley said. He added that 3-D testing costs more and involves higher levels of radiation. It also is not 100 % perfect, he said. Cost aside, one study involving 13 U.S. hospitals showed that 3-D mammograms recognized an additional 40 percent of invasive cancers. For better results, a woman could have a whole-breast ultrasound. This test requires the patient to lie on her back as the ultrasound device slowly moves back and forth. The exam captures between 3,000 and 5,000 images of the breast. Megha Garg is the director of the breast-imaging program at the University of Missouri cancer center. She says the whole-breast ultrasound “helps detect additional breast cancers in females who have dense breasts.” The ultrasound doesn’t use radiation, so it is less risky than a mammogram. But Garg says the traditional mammogram remains a helpful tool because it is very effective. Researchers are studying which method is best at detecting cancer. North America, Western Europe and Australia have the highest rates of breast cancer. Yet the World Health Organization reports that almost 50 percent of the cases and nearly 60 percent of the deaths happen in less-developed countries. With improvements, nearly 400,000 women’s lives could be saved every year. I'm Susan Shand. Carol Pearson reported this story for VOA. Susan Shand adapted her story for Learning English. ______________________________________________________________ Words in This Story mammogram – n. a photograph of a woman's breasts made by X-rays radiologist – n. a doctor who is trained in the branch of medicine that uses some forms of radiation (such as X-rays) to diagnose and treat diseases dimensional – adj. the length, width, height, or depth of something dense – adj. having parts that are close together ultrasound – n. a method of producing images of the inside of the body by using a machine that produces sound waves which are too high to be heard

Report Warns that Russian Hacking in Catalonia Could Intensify
A new report says that Russian hacking operations to support Catalonian independence continue and could intensify. The Spanish Defense Ministry’s Center for Strategic and Defense Studies published the report this week. It says Russia is destabilizing Spain as tensions grow in the northeastern region. Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy hoped to ease tensions by holding local elections last month. Instead, the voting returned the pro-independence majority to the regional parliament. In another protest of the Spanish government, the party then nominated exiled leader Carles Puigdemont as president. Social media interference Spanish defense minister Maria Dolores Cospedal, as well as EU and NATO officials, have expressed suspicion about Russian interference in Catalonia. Cospedal has resisted blaming Russia directly. However, in November she said that the government was examining how thousands of robot accounts supporting Catalonia's independence operated from Russia. Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Spain of trying to "blame Russia for its internal weaknesses." Spain has recorded a 2,000 percent increase in social media traffic since Catalans voted for and then declared independence late last year. The Spanish government enforced direct rule over the region after the declaration. It also ordered the arrest of Puigdemont. Spain's defense ministry says it agrees with the report. University of Barcelona political scientist, Josep Basques, wrote the report. He said Russia is using Spain's conflict to weaken NATO. He also said similar efforts could be repeated in other European countries with pro-independence movements. Operations from a “troll farm” A majority of the pro-independence social media traffic has been linked to a Russian "troll farm" in a building near St. Petersburg. A company called Internet Research, or IR, is based in the building owned by Evgeny Prigozhin. Prigozhin is closely linked in business to Russian president Vladimir Putin. Former employees have told Western media that IR employs hackers, bloggers and writers to spread false news reports supportive of the Russian government. Manuel Huerta is a Spanish computer system security expert. He said IR employees can create any kind of news, commentary and opinion extremely quickly. Katrin Palanska is a Ukrainian computer networks expert. She says IR also targets Ukraine and Baltic states where Russia supports separatist movements. Russian computer attacks are increasingly common, she says, and have included attempts to enter Ukraine's electrical system and government records. Anti-independence reporters in Catalonia say hackers in Russia have attacked press websites and email accounts. Eric Encinas, publisher of a digital magazine, told VOA that in the past month he has received notices of unusual activity in his email accounts. The activity was linked to Ekaterinburg, Russia, home to the IR troll farm. Venezuela’s role Spanish defense officials say over 30 percent of robot accounts supporting Catalonian independence are based in Venezuela. That country’s president, Nicolas Maduro, a Russian ally, has attacked Rajoy for supporting opposition to Venezuela’s government. Accounts such as #VenezuelaSalutesCatalunya have posted messages calling Rajoy a “dictator" and telling Catalans to "resist." I’m Phil Dierking.
