Se gli USA permetteranno all'Iran di far pagare un pedaggio sullo Stretto di #Hormuz avranno tradito gli alleati arabi che ne assorbiranno il costo. Impattando poco il pedaggio sul prezzo del petrolio, gli altri stati probabilmente staranno alla finestra

Se vi fossero ancora dubbi, ora è palese che gli USA fanno gli interessi della Russia, contro quelli europei. L'Europa dovrà fornire le garanzie chieste dall'Ucraina.

Riveting, extraordinary and brutally honest speech by Mark Carney, Canada's prime minister. God, I wish we would have European leaders like this.
Here's an excerpt:
In 1978, the Czech dissident Václav Havel, later president, wrote an essay called “The Power of the Powerless,” and in it he asked a simple question: how did the communist system sustain itself?
And his answer began with a greengrocer.
Every morning, the shopkeeper places a sign in his window: “Workers of the world unite.” He doesn’t believe in it. No one does. But he places the sign anyway to avoid trouble, to signal compliance, to get along. And because every shopkeeper on every street does the same, the system persists — not through violence alone, but through the participation of ordinary people in rituals they privately know to be false.
Havel called this living within a lie. The system’s power comes not from its truth, but from everyone’s willingness to perform as if it were true. And its fragility comes from the same source. When even one person stops performing, when the greengrocer removes his sign, the illusion begins to crack.
Friends, it is time for companies and countries to take their signs down.
For decades, countries like Canada prospered under what we called the rules-based international order. We join its institutions, we praised its principles, we benefited from its predictability. And because of that, we could pursue values-based foreign policies under its protection.
We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false, that the strongest would exempt themselves when convenient, that trade rules were enforced asymmetrically, and we knew that international law applied with varied rigor, depending on the identity of the accused or the victim.
This fiction was useful, and American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, open sea lanes, a stable financial system, collective security, and support for frameworks for resolving disputes.
So we placed the sign in the window. We participated in the rituals, and we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality.
This bargain no longer works.
Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition.

Lorenzo, non ho letto il tuo articolo a causa della pubblicità che gli stai facendo.
Sembra che tu preferisca il "dirigismo" di chi si considera più esperto del mercato, anziché affidarti alla "mano invisibile" del mercato.
Secondo te, chi sceglie di lavorare o investire nel turismo invece che in altri settori è poco avveduto o semplicemente mal informato?
My message goes to the Brothers and Sisters of Ukraine, and in particular to their Armed Forces.
On this Day of Remembrance, we honor the countless lives lost in the fight against tyranny and oppression during the Second World War.
We remember the courage of those who stood for freedom.
The same courage we recognize in you, today.
For over three years now, 1169 days, you have defended your nation with unbreakable spirit and unwavering resolve.
You are not just fighting for Ukraine, for your families, and your fellow citizens.
You are standing on the frontlines of democracy and the right for freedom.
NATO sees your sacrifice.
NATO hears your voice.
And NATO stands with you.
We pay tribute to your fallen heroes, who have given everything in this struggle.
Their memory strengthens our commitment.
To support Ukraine.
To uphold our values.
Sisters and Brothers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Your courage today is a gift to tomorrow.
Today is not only about remembering the past.
It is about shaping the future.
A future where Ukraine is free, sovereign, and secure.
From every NATO nation, from every uniform we wear...
WE SALUTE YOU.
Your struggle is our shared cause.
WE WILL NOT WAVER.
AND NEITHER WILL YOU.
SLAVA UKRAINI!

La 'pericolosità' attribuita agli studi legali che hanno stretto accordi con la Casa Bianca è svanita subito dopo tali intese. Questo ha avvantaggiato lo studio che ha contestato in tribunale l'ordine esecutivo di Trump, dimostrando così il carattere pretestuoso di quelle accuse.
