One year on, we know this: #Sweden’s trade unions are more than a match for Elon Musk

It is the first and only #strike against #Tesla anywhere in the world. And it has now become the longest-running strike in Sweden for a century. In April, six months into the dispute,

#Musk said: “Actually, I think the storm has passed on that front, I think things are in reasonably good shape in Sweden.” That was not true then, and it is not true now.

The #BRICS leaders attended an informal dinner party.

Russia is holding a BRICS meeting with surprise visitors El Sisi of #Egypt and so called president of #Palestine Mohamed Abbas. Even #Turkey and #NorthKorea have sent delegates to the meeting and several African nations have also shown interest in joining the system. It is unclear if they announce any new members after this meeting, but it sure going to have a major impact on #dedolirization of the world economy.

The criminal reaction of Europe and US to freeze and confiscate assets of Russian citizens, not just state funds have woken up the world that they can't trust the west following their own rules and relying on them is nothing but a false feeling of safety.

One can cruise the origin of those frozen assets, but they are not much different than most of the wealth of criminal leaders of various countries who live a safe and protected life in #Europe and #US.

How a massacre of Algerians in Paris was covered up 17 October 1961

Around 30,000 Algerians had taken to the streets of Paris in a peaceful protest against a curfew, and calling for independence nearly seven years into the war against French rule in North Africa, which had occasionally spilled onto the streets of the French capital.

On 17 October 1961, the police killed at least 100 protesters, some of whom were thrown into the River Seine, making it one of the darkest pages of #France's chequered colonial #history.

Russia could attack NATO by 2030, German intelligence chief says

Kahl's comments were the latest in a series of increasingly dire warnings from Western leaders and defense officials about the threat emanating from #Russia and #Europe's current lack of preparedness.

Russia's determination to use #covert and hybrid measures against the West has reached a "level previously unseen," Kahl said, adding that they are being used "without any scruples."

#Poland’s leader plans to suspend the right to #asylum as country faces pressure on #Belarus #border

Through its involvement in the lost wars in Iraq, Libya, Syria and Afghanistan, Poland has contributed significantly to the refugee flows. Refusing to accept refugees is therefore not only ethically reprehensible but also a testimony to inhumane criminal politics.

Comment le RN fait monter, en toute discrétion, les éléments les plus radicaux des assistants parlementaires.

Les collaborateurs parlementaires du RN sont souvent issus des rangs les plus radicaux de l’extrême droite, et trouvent dans ces fonctions d’assistants un marchepied vers une activité politique plus respectable et rémunératrice.

L'exemple de Guillaume Pradoura, dans l'article, est confondant. Révoltant. Et tout le reste de l'article est comme tirer à sa connaissance le fil d'une pelote plongée dans une fosse à purin : ça pue de plus en plus et certains morceaux accrochés filent la nausée.
Mettre un masque et LIRE.

#PACE hearing on Julian #Assange's #detention and conviction and their chilling effects on human rights

watch: https://www.youtube.com/live/Mq85IZMeigc?t=746s

It is a shame for Western democracy that neither #Sweden nor the #UK have a review and a committee of inquiry into the failure of justice and US interference in the supposedly independent judiciary in the Assange case. Unfortunately, many politicians in Western Europe believe that human rights are only violated in Russia, China or Afghanistan, but not on their own doorstep. Distracted by the many crises and the rise of far-right parties, Europe is heading straight into diabolical chaos 😱

Q:You argue that Europe has delegated the representation of the West to the United States and is now paying the price. How do you think this trend can be changed?

A: “In the present state we cannot do anything else. A war has begun. It is the outcome of this war that will decide the fate of Europe. If Russia is defeated in Ukraine, European submission to the Americans would be prolonged for a century. If, as I believe, the United States is defeated, #NATO will #disintegrate and #Europe will be left #free.

Even more important than a Russian victory will be the halting of the Russian army on the Dnepr and the unwillingness of the Putin regime to attack western Europe militarily. With 144 million people, a shrinking population and 17 million square kilometers, the Russian state is already struggling to occupy its territory. Russia will have neither the means nor the desire to expand once the borders of pre-communist Russia are reconstituted. Western Russophobic hysteria fantasizing about the desire for Russian expansion in Europe is simply ridiculous to a serious historian.

The psychological shock awaiting Europeans will be to realize that #NATO does not exist to protect us but to #control us.”
