Is there a plan behind Trump’s chaos? Maybe on the Middle East. Israel wants to kill 2 states solution, Trump doesn’t want another big war. Possible that he helps Israel kill 2-states solution with his unimplementable gambit on Gaza, while he reopens diplomatic track with Iran? Or not!

Avec Trump, il est temps de profiter du vide. Kagame voit claire.
J'ai vécu en Afrique subsaharienne 12 ans, dont un à Goma en 2008.

La chute de Goma, une grande tragédie pour la RDC, trahie par des dirigeants qui n’ont pas construit un État, abandonnée par une “communauté internationale” qui a d’autres soucis, pillée par un Rwanda rapace qui n’a pas renoncé à dépecer son grand voisin affaibli.

Ischinger’s is absurd: 1/Bringing China troops to Europe would be a provocation for Trump. 2/ Troops from countries not strongly committed to Ukraine would pull out if there was a risk of war. 3/ Ukraine would be as opposed to that “guarantee“ as Putin to the presence of NATO countries troops.

Al-Sharaa is right not to rush elections and constitution in Syria. But the longer the transition, the greater the need for an impartial broker to manage it & organize credible elections. Excluding the UN would be a grave mistake, that will only create very legitimate suspicions.

Réaction française au verdict de Mazan, approuvant à juste titre la condamnation deTOUS les accusés, mais aussi nécessaire différenciation des peines.
Réaction de la presse américaine, critique de peines selon elle trop légères, et demandant que tous reçoivent des peines plus sévères.

Dealing with Trump, Israel, and Hamas: The path to peace in the Middle East With a two-state solution at risk, Europeans must work closely with Arab states to bring the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to an end.

2/And external actors can make things worse. Syria can very easily slip into a civil war if Turkey encourages the Islamists to crush the Kurds, or if the Kurds & other non Islamists, supported by the US & Israel try to push back too far.

1/There is no peaceful society waiting to blossom when a monstrous dictatorship collapses. There is hate and lack of trust & social capital. #Syria needs enlightened leaders to overcome desire for revenge and retribution.

Censure ou pas: Ce qui ne fait pas de doute, c’est que la chute du gouvernement 🇫🇷 sera pour les observateurs étrangers la confirmation que les responsables politiques sont incapables de s’entendre sur un plan de redressement des finances du pays. Le coût de la dette augmentera immédiatement

The meeting of Nordic countries and Poland sends a strong message to Russia , to Trump, and to the rest of Europe that there is a group of frontline states that are willing to take risks to prevent a defeat of Ukraine.

One can argue whether a legal process is the best avenue to stop the war in Gaza, but if one believes that international justice can help build the rule of law in international relations, making a distinction between our friends and others is an insult to the very idea of justice.

If Europe lets Ukraine down, Russian tanks may not roll into the Baltic States but the abandonment of Ukraine, coming after the commitment of the last two years will deal a mortal blow to the European ambition of a political Europe. Putin will just have to pick European countries one at a time,

How Tim Cook Cracked the Code on Working With Trump The election is leading to a return of personal lobbying by CEOs, hoping to develop ties with the new administration. Cook developed a playbook for engaging with Trump.

Tim Cook et les grands patrons US se tournent vers Trump dès qu’ils ont un problème avec l’UE. L’Europe sera dans le collimateur de Trump: c’est une cible plus facile à atteindre que la Chine, car elle dépend des USA pour sa sécurité. www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

Je pense que tenter d’utiliser la voie judiciaire pour empêcher Marine Le Pen de se présenter à la présidentielle est une stratégie à haut risque. Elle a échoué avec Trump et renforce le rejet des institutions par une large partie de la population.

Abraham accords: The UAE, a non democratic regime with 1M nationals out of a population of 10M, can afford to completely ignore the will of its people. Saudi Arabia, with nationals being 60% of its 35M population, can’t, even if it is an absolute monarchy.

Le rejet du “wokisme” est un des facteurs (pas le seul, mais pas négligeable) de l’élection de Trump. Les démocrates français feraient bien d’en tirer les leçons s’ils ne veulent pas que les mêmes erreurs conduisent aux mêmes résultats.
