United States and Iran: Europe to the test

The Iranian crisis, much announced and finally exploded, will test the European Union. It is not the first time that the EU has had to demonstrate its virtues, and the results were not brilliant. This, but, it could be the last because the cancellation of the Treaty signed in 2015 with the government of Hassan Rouhani it could decree the end of any attempt to give Europe a political physiognomy.

The question is very simple. According to the European Union (and also the UN and Russia, moreover), the agreement of 2015, built to block Iran's path to military nuclear power, works, Iran respects the pacts and there is no reason to cancel it after such a short time. According to the USA (and also Israel and Saudi Arabia), on the contrary, the agreement is full of holes, it offers no security guarantees and Iran lies, because he continues to try to prepare the atomic bomb.

It would be difficult to imagine a sharper difference of opinion than this. Which is furthermore broadened by questions of economic interest. The USA wants to favor traditional partners in the Persian Gulf, who are, among other things, much richer than the Iranians. Europe has a long and cordial commercial tradition with Iran, enjoyed above all by Italy and Germany. Our country is now the second largest exporter to Iran (especially mechanical and chemical industries) and the second importer (especially oil) after Germany, first in both sectors. In the 2011 commercial relationships between Italy and Iran they reached their peak, with a value of 11 billions of euros. In the 2012 sanctions, also imposed by the EU, they caused the value of a to collapse 1,3 billion, but the projections for the 2018 they talk about 3 billion, therefore we are rapidly regaining our former positions.

Sovereignty and the opinions of the President of the Republic

Sovereignty and the opinions of the President of the Republic
Source: Economic Scenarios
Even at the last moment, M5S and Lega have reached an agreement for the formation of a political government which determines an essential turning point: this is the first real victory of the sovereignist forces. First of all, towards Europe: in a Union that, after all, it had managed to ensure its balance even in the presence of anti-European forces, a "sovereignist" Italy is now arriving, led by an alliance between the two main “national-popular” forces. Elsewhere, we had had defeats: despite Le Pen's good electoral result, Macron's France prevailed, as well as in Germany, despite the nationalist exploit, the system has regrouped. Ecco, the Italian novelty: the “system” was unable to regroup, to absorb and neutralize the oppositions that crossed it. Right, everyone tried in every way: Berlusconi thinking of a center-right government that would find the support of the "responsible" in parliament, the Democratic Party hoping for the President's government, Mattarella with his hypothesis of a "neutral government". But in the end Lega and M5S won: they will govern, Together, after Berlusconi's step aside. As it was in the nature of things from the beginning. Read More

In an exclusive interview with “Panorama” on newsstands on 3 maggio, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, almost 15 years close collaborator of Putin, accuses the United States, Great Britain and a "small but very aggressive" group of Russophobic European countries.

Macron, l'europeista a parole che pensa solo agli interessi della Francia

Macron, the verbal pro-European who thinks only of France's interests
Source: Linkiesta
French President Emmanuel Macron puffed out his chest in his speech to the European Parliament, knowing full well that with Great Britain's imminent exit from the Union it will remain the only member country that sits on the UN Security Council and has a significant atomic potential. He reiterates that his intervention in Syria together with the American and British ones “saved the honor of Europe”. In truth, Westerners saved face after losing the war in Syria where Russia and Iran managed to keep Bashar Al Assad's regime in place.. Now a new chapter will probably begin with the clash between Iran and Israel.
It is a negligible fact that since the beginning of the revolt seven years ago France has tried in every way to have its say in the former colony: first he focused on the fall of Assad, even supporting the jihadists, then in 2013 he wanted to bomb Damascus, then with the attacks in France in 2015 Hollande asked the Syrian dictator to fly over the country to take revenge and strike ISIS. Short memory and not only of the French.
Macron himself speaks of a "poisoned debate" but whoever arrogated the right to send French policemen to Italian territory in Bardonecchia against all the rules: Paris has not yet apologized and probably never will
The astute Macron even promised a few weeks ago to protect the Syrian Kurds from Erdogan by receiving a Kurdish delegation and sending 150 soldiers from Iraq but in reality he accomplished nothing, like Trump who sold his allies against the Caliphate to Türkiye. Read More

Macron, the pro-European in words who thinks only of the interests of France

In his speech to the European Parliament he claimed that with the attack in Syria he "saved the honor of Europe". Actually, France thinks only of its own interest. Which almost always, from the intervention in Libya to the mission in Niger, it is contrary to the Italian one. (Of Alberto Negri, LAWS)

Ecco perché l'Italia dovrebbe sostenere la Siria di Assad

http://www.ilprimatonazionale.it/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Siria-bandiera.pngOf Eugenio Palazzini
Syria does not concern us, let the Americans and Russians deal with it. We have many other problems to solve and in any case who do you want to consult Italy, we have no say in the matter. And then let's be clear, why should we meddle in the affairs of an Arab nation, at most, let's limit ourselves to offering our support to the United States, indeed no to Putin's Russia. Let's do this, Let's just avoid exposing ourselves, it's better. This is a recurring litany, worthy of the best fatalistic and disenchanted spirit of the times. At the same time, however, it is the most obtuse and senseless vision of the Syrian issue. There are in fact at least four fundamental reasons why it is not acceptable for Italy to stand by and watch, which actually impose on us a clear stance in support of Assad's Syria. Here are the ones. Read More

How China is taking over the world

Furthermore, in the religious field, Xi Jinping promotes the creator of the campaign that led to the removal of 1.500 crosses and the demolition of many Christian churches

The Chinese trade balance is abundantly in surplus with all the main industrialized countries. Virtually everyone finds themselves importing much more from China than they are able to export.
This process allows China to achieve steady GDP growth (approximately of 7% anno), therefore achieving the objective set by Beijing. Basically every year, a river of money moves from the West to China. With this money Beijing is buying companies, technology and “know how” from all over the world, it is transforming into a formidable economic and military power capable of influencing world balances and redefining its rules and principles.
In the 2017 China's overall trade surplus was $ 422,5 billion.
China's surplus to the United States in 2017 was equal to $ 275,81 billion (finanza.com).
China's surplus towards Europe in 2017 was equal to € 175 billion (ilgiornale.it).
China's surplus towards Italy in 2016 was equal to € 16,18 billion (infomercatiesteri.com).
These incredible numbers explain the reasons for China's power and difficulties, often disastrous, on the western side. But given that the Chinese have not proven to be leaders in any sector related to innovation, science or technology, so let's try to understand what were the causes that led to this new reality.

L'Europa è già stata conquistata dall'Islam?

Reporting of BastaBugie editorial team
In Sweden there are Muslim schools, Berlin is overrun by gangs of Arabs, in French mosques the extermination of infidels is called for (really in Italy we can rest assured? for how long?)
Of Leone Grotti

Close all schools opened by religious institutes to transform them into secular and state schools. It is the incredible proposal that the social democratic party, who leads a minority government in Sweden, he did on Wednesday to explain what he will do in the educational sector if he wins the legislative elections next September.
Ardalan Shekarabi, important exponent of the party and current Minister of Public Administration, announced the project at a press conference in Stockholm. The objective is to «defeat and break down the wall of segregation in our schools. Too many times we see that there are institutions where females are separated from males and values ​​that are not Swedish are taught".
Shekarabi refers to some Muslim schools where problems with segregation and teaching have been found “limit”. There are only openly Islamic schools 11 across the country but Social Democrats fear that the number may grow in the future as since 2012 Sweden welcomed 400 thousand asylum seekers, mostly Muslims. A very high number if we consider that the population numbers just over nine million inhabitants. Read More
