Sovereignists at the crossroads between "light" Europe and the Trump option

of the Prof. Paolo Becchi on Libero, 20/07/2018
Juncker's image, President of the European Commission, visibly altered and staggering during the last NATO summit, it represents what Europe currently is better than anything else. The Franco-German axis, of which Juncker is the expression, he's in a coma, non-ethyl, but still in a coma.
The Visegrad Group of countries interacts with the United States,and the United States has openly declared support for Brexit, war on the EU and support for all those countries like ours that have taken on a Eurosceptic orientation with the new government. Let's say it clearly: Trump's policy is not at all "isolationist", as it seemed from the election campaign. American foreign policy is completely back under neocon control. Trump now clearly aims to disaggregate Europe, because it fears not only the economic but also the political growth of Germany. Perhaps it is no coincidence that Bannon is in Italy so often in recent months, on Trump's "exploratory mandate" or in his own interest, it doesn't matter. Trump is revealing the true face of his current administration: to all intents and purposes it continues to exercise that imperial role that the United States has had since the post-war period and which after the fall of the Berlin Wall, for a few years, they practiced on their own. Right, now there is Putin's Russia again, and also China, that move on the international stage, but Europe?
Ecco, Trump's strategy is evident: aim for the disintegration of Europe by helping all those populist movements, sovereignists who are succeeding in Europe. Here a big problem arises for Europe and for our country in Europe. Italy is faced with two possible paths: deal a heavy blow to the now weakened Franco-German hegemony, taking advantage of Trump's support, but in this case running the risk of becoming the "Atlantic bridgehead" on the old continent. Free from European constraints, but subjects once again of the American Empire? Read More

Beyond what may be the political and substantive judgments on the nascent so-called government yellow-green branded League e Five Star Movement It's truly impressive that when this is about to be launched it will come back into fashion Spread ghost, that is, the increase in the differentials between interest rates on Italian and German ten-year government bonds. This increase in spread in fact it would lead to an increase in the outlay that the Italian State must pay to place its securities on the market. A very delicate situation given the enormous public debt of the State which would tie the nascent government hand and foot, inhibiting its political action.
The first thing you notice is that this government would be in stark contrast to those we have had in recent years. In fact it would be the first government openly Eurosceptic and the result of the vote of a new social bloc: that of the discontented, of the people who have emerged defeated from globalization and the constant transfer of sovereignty to Brussels, impoverished and frustrated. It would also be the first government that sees the hitherto dominant and always strongly pro-European elite, move into opposition together with its reference parties.
A truly unprecedented situation which also saw a very violent barrage from newspapers and television stations in unison. Not by chance, we can see that these newspapers and televisions are entirely controlled by the very elite that risks being undermined. Read More
