Rubio meets Orbán in Budapest as US and Hungary are to sign a civilian nuclear pact

AP News BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio was in the Hungarian capital on Monday for meetings with Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and his government during which they plan to sign a civilian-nuclear cooperation agreement heralded by U.S. President Donald Trump.

AP News HONG KONG (AP) — Asia shares were mixed on Monday and gold declined, as several stock markets were closed or trading for a half-day ahead of Lunar New Year celebrations.

AP News SINGAPORE, Singapore (AP) — Flying in and out of Singapore, home to Southeast Asia's busiest airport, will get slightly more expensive this year as the city state begins imposing a levy of between 75 cents to $32 per ticket to fund sustainable aviation fuel.

The tax will support Singapore's growing use of the cleaner burning fuel, which is often made from used cooking oil or agricultural waste. The global aviation industry is encouraging its use as it tries to slash rising emissions that contribute to climate change without altering current aircraft.
