The Contours and Consequences of a Second-Term Foreign Policy

Agray rhino—a predictable and long-foreseen disruption that is still shocking when it occurs—has crashed into American foreign policy: Donald Trump has won a second term as president of the United States. Despite polls predicting a nail-biter, the final results were fairly decisive, and although we do not know the precise composition of the new order, we know Trump will be at the top of it.

La France en crise économique : Michelin ferme ses usines, Auchan annonce des licenciements massifs et Milee est en liquidation, laissant des milliers de salariés dans l’incertitude. Que se passe-t-il ? Les choix politiques affectent notre avenir.

On trouve en Europe orientale un État qui ne devrait pas exister et qui existe pourtant, suite aux facéties tragiques de l’histoire. Naguère désigné comme la Bessarabie du Moyen Âge à 1944, car situé sur la rive occidentale du Dniestr, ce territoire convoité tour à tour par la Russie, l’Empire ottoman et, plus tard, la Roumanie s’appelle aujourd’hui la Moldavie qu’il ne faut surtout pas confondre avec une région historique éponyme, l’une des matrices de la nation roumaine qui s’étendait des Carpates orientales aux berges du Prout. D’une superficie de 33.700 km², cette ancienne république soviétique, la plus pauvre d’Europe, d’où une très forte émigration, partage 450 km de frontières avec la Roumanie, et une frontière commune longue de 940 km avec l’Ukraine.

On October 20, Moldova will hold its presidential election. At first glance, there seems to be little suspense — polls show that the incumbent president, Maia Sandu, is the overwhelming favorite. However, her chances of winning in the first round could be threatened by a network of supporters loyal to the exiled Moldovan oligarch Ilan Shor. Estimates suggest that this network includes between 120,000 and 400,000 people, making up around 10% of the electorate. At a critical moment, these supporters are expected to receive instructions on how to vote. Shor is also rallying people to vote against Moldova’s European integration in a referendum set to take place on the same day. A defeat in the referendum would be a serious blow to Sandu, giving her opponents ammunition to claim that the country is not truly interested in joining the European Union.

The developing world arrived in Kazan, the capital of Republic of Tatarstan, driving by economic transformation proposals backed by the numerical strength of participants to portray their collective weight of influence to boost de-dollarization and a new global financial payment system, design a new mechanism for a long-term economic integration and complex architecture. For much of its significant collective activities these past several years, BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) has been viewed and described from perspectives of supporting the economic development in the Global South, Southeast Asia and Africa.

The possibility of a life-changing “raspberry passport” through agricultural work is fading for many South Asian workers, forcing already vulnerable people into even more precarious and often exploitative situations.

When Kamal Bhattarai first arrived in Portugal from Nepal on a tourist visa a decade ago, he hardly knew anyone. With limited Portuguese, for years he scraped by working odd jobs in restaurants and on farms hoping to build a new life for his family.

When Alexandru Coreţchi welcomed me to Chișinău earlier this year, the head of Moldova’s Information Technology and Cyber Security Service looked tired. And with good reason.

His team had spent the previous 36 hours fighting off a Russian-linked cyberattack that targeted government websites.

Les deux guerres en cours ont des origines différentes et lointaines.

Les causes de la guerre russo-ukrainienne, si l’on se limite au contexte régional, remontent aux émeutes de l’Euromaïdan de novembre il y a dix ans, à l’annexion ultérieure de la Crimée par la Russie, aux politiques anti-russophones mises en œuvre dans le Donbass par Kiev et les républiques séparatistes autoproclamées de Donetsk et de Louhansk. En revanche, le conflit israélo-palestinien, si l’on ne considère que la portée régionale, remonte à la guerre civile de juin 2007, lorsque le Hamas est parvenu à prendre le contrôle total de la bande de Gaza.

Highly classified Pentagon documents leaked online in recent weeks have provided a rare window into how the US spies on allies and foes alike, deeply rattling US officials, who fear the revelations could jeopardize sensitive sources and compromise important foreign relationships.
