WASHINGTON Nike Air VaporMax 97 Plata Bullet Zapatillas Baratas , Feb. 1 (Xinhua) -- The White House said Monday it will propose to invest 1 billion U.S. dollars over the next two years to support what President Barack Obama called a "cancer moonshot" to fight the dreaded disease.
Obama will ask Congress for 755 million dollars in his fiscal year 2017 budget to speed up cancer research and will try to spend 195 million dollars this year, the White House said.
"We're calling it a 'Moonshot,' and that's because I believe that this effort, like President Kennedy's call to land on the moon 55 years ago, is truly a call to humankind -- to be bold and do big things Mujer Nike Air Vapormax TPU Zapatillas Rosa Blancas Baratas ," said Vice President Joe Biden, who is in charge of the initiative.
"In fact, just today we announced a new 1 billion dollar jumpstart to make sure some of the best work going on has the funding that it needs," he said in a statement.
Obama first announced the efforts to find a cure for cancer last month during his State of the Union address. Last week, he signed a presidential memorandum establishing a "cancer moonshot" task force Hombre Nike Air VaporMax Plus Zapatillas Negras Blancas Baratas , which included top officials from 13 government agencies, such as the National Institutes of Health.
The White House said the "cancer moonshot" will help double the rate of progress in the country's fight against cancer, with the goal of achieving in just five years research and treatment gains that otherwise might take a decade or more.
Biden, whose son died of brain cancer last May, was expected to chair the first "cancer moonshot" task force meeting later Monday at the White House.
US President Barack Obama yesterday lifted a half-century-old ban on selling arms to Vietnam during his first visit to the country Hombre Nike Air Vapormax Plus Cool Gris Zapatillas Baratas , looking to bolster a government seen as a crucial, though flawed partner in a region he’s tried to place at the center of his foreign policy legacy.
Obama announced the full removal of the embargo at a news conference where he signaled a desire to leave the troubled history between the former enemies behind and reward what he described as modest progress on human rights.
“At this stage, both sides have established a level of trust and cooperation, including between our militaries, that is reflective of common interests and mutual respect Hombre Nike Air Vapormax Plus Zapatillas Granate Baratas ,” Obama said, adding that every US arms sale would be reviewed case by case. “This change will ensure Vietnam has access to the equipment it needs to defend itself and removes a lingering vestige of the Cold War.”
Obama is seeking to strike a balance with Vietnam, which he called a vital country in one of the world’s most vital regions, amid tensions over the South China Sea, one of the world’s most important waterways.
China lauded the lifting of a US arms embargo Hombre Nike Air Vapormax CS Triple Negras Zapatillas Baratas , saying it hoped “normal and friendly” relations between the US and Vietnam are conducive to regional stability. A spokeswoman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry said bans are a product of the Cold War and shouldn’t have existed.
Lifting the arms embargo will be a psychological boost for Vietnam’s leaders, but there may not be a big jump in sales. Vietnamese President Tran Dai Quang praised the expansion in security and trade ties between “former enemies turned friends” and called for more US investment in Vietnam. He said there was enormous bilateral trade growth potential.
US lawmakers and activists had urged the president to press the Vietnamese leadership for greater freedoms before lifting the embargo. Vietnam holds about 100 political prisoners and there have been more detentions this year.
The United States partially lifted the embargo in 2014, and removing the remaining restrictions opens the way to deeper security cooperation.
After three days in Vietnam, Obama heads to Japan for an international summit and a visit to Hiroshima, where he will be the first sitting president to visit the site of the first atomic bomb attack.
He arrived in Hanoi Hombre Nike Air VaporMax LACELESS Negras Night Zapatillas Baratas , Vietnam’s capital, late on Sunday, making him the third sitting president to visit the country since the end of the war. Four decades after the fall of Saigon, now called Ho Chi Minh City, and two decades after President Bill Clinton restored relations with the nation Zapatillas Hombre Nike Vapormax Pale Grises Baratas , Obama is eager to upgrade relations with an emerging power whose rapidly expanding middle class beckons as a promising market for US goods.
Obama was greeted by Quang at the Presidential Palace yesterday. Obama congratulated Vietnam for making “extraordinary progress.” He said he hopes the visit will show a continued interest in strengthening ties in the years to come.
Obama will make the case for stronger commercial and security ties, including approval of the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement that is stalled in Congress and facing strong opposition from the 2016 presidential candidates. The deal, which includes Vietnam, would tear down trade barriers and encourage investment between signatories.
Critics worry it would cost jobs by exposing American workers to low-wage competition from countries such as Vietnam. They also say it would allow multinational corporations to challenge local laws by saying they violate the trade deal.
Obama and Quang earlier attended a signing ceremony touting a series of new commercial deals between US and Vietnamese companies valued at more than US$16 billion.
