L'INCROYABLE MILEY CYRUS

SA VIE WRECKING BALL EN CE MOMENT

Le saviez-vous Miley Cyrus divorce de Liam Hemsworth après seulement sept mois de mariage ?

Pour une nouvelle liaison !

Les photos, celles de Miley Cyrus enlaçant et embrassant une jeune femme sur le matelas d'une piscine au bord du lac de Come, en Italie, s'étalent dans les magazines people.

Cette jeune femme se nomme Kaitlynn Carter.

Elle est tête d'affiche de la télé-réalité The Hills.

Et la nouvelle venue dans la vie de la vedette vient elle aussi tout juste de se séparer de Brody Jenner, un des demi-frères de Kylie et Kendall Kardashian.

Le mari de Miley la connaissait depuis longtemps :

ils avaient vécu ensemble avant de se dire oui pour la vie.

Il la connaissait bien.

A la chanteuse de Wrecking Ball de déclarer d'ailleurs qu' elle « ne rentre pas dans un rôle stéréotypé d'épouse :

je suis dans une relation hétérosexuelle, et je suis toujours attirée par les femmes », avait-elle déclaré au mois de juillet au magazine Elle américain.

Maintenant, avec sa nouvelle amie, elle semble vouloir passer à autre chose.

Liam Hemsworth, l'époux délaissé, est rentré en Australie.

Hemsworth a officialisé leur rupture sur Instagram tout en souhaitant à son ex-compagne « rien d’autre que de la santé et du bonheur ».

Le porte-parole de la chanteuse de 26 ans a déclaré dans un communiqué :

« Liam et Miley ont décidé de se séparer pour l'instant.En tant que partenaires et individus qui changent et évoluent constamment, ils ont décidé que c'était ce qui était le mieux pour se concentrer sur eux-mêmes et leurs carrières.

Ils restent des parents dévoués pour les animaux qu'ils ont ensemble mails ils veulent s'accorder du temps à chacun.

Veuillez respecter leur décision et leur vie privée. ».

Miley Cyrus semble préférer profiter des moments présents en s'amusant. Cela ne cacherait-il pas une grande souffrance ?

HOMMAGE A PETER FONDA LE HEROS DE EASY RIDER

« Il a contribué à changer le cinéma, mais il a aussi vécu une vie pleine d’amour et rendu le monde meilleur », a écrit le réalisateur Guillermo del Toro.

Il quitte la scène à 79 ans, mais son étoile sur Hollywood Boulevard, brillera à tout jamais.

Peter Fonda est mort vendredi 16 août dans sa maison de Los Angeles (États-Unis) à l'âge de 79 ans.

Fils de la star d'Hollywood Henry Fonda, petit frère de Jane Fonda et père de Bridget Fonda, il a succombé à un arrêt respiratoire, provoqué par un cancer du poumon.

« Je suis très triste. C'était mon adorable petit frère. La pipelette de la famille.

J'ai passé des moments merveilleux seule avec lui ces derniers jours. Il est parti en riant », a déclaré sa sœur Jane Fonda.

L'acteur américain était devenu célèbre pour son rôle de motard dans le film « Easy Rider » un film culte de 1969 dans lequel l'acteur campe un rôle de motard vendeur de cocaïne, qui traverse les grands espaces du Sud-Ouest américain.

« Easy Rider », écrit par Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, et Terry Southern, interprété par les deux premiers et réalisé par Hopper, est l'un des films étendards de la contre-culture américaine des années 1960. Il montre comment la culture naissante des hippies et les valeurs des années 60 se heurtent aux franges conservatrices de la société américaine.

Ce road movie, devenu un emblème de la génération hippie des années 1960-1970, raconte en effet le voyage de deux jeunes motards, Wyatt et Billy, qui, après avoir vendu une grosse quantité de drogue, décident de quitter Los Angeles et d'aller participer à la célébration du carnaval de La Nouvelle-Orléans avec l'argent gagné.

Durant leur traversée des États-Unis sur leurs motos de type choppers, les protagonistes rencontrent et découvrent le mode de vie d'une communauté hippie. Mais accusés à tort de participer illégalement à un défilé, ils sont jetés en prison. Là, ils sympathisent avec George Hanson, un avocat défenseur des droits civiques qui se joint à eux pour la suite du périple. Les trois marginaux se confrontent à l'Amérique traditionnelle.

Une quête de liberté à travers une odyssée à moto dans les grands espaces qui se finit mal. Une fin violente clôt en effet cette œuvre ancrée dans son époque et qui montre une Amérique et un cinéma en train de changer. Les conventionnelles « happy end » laissent alors place aux épilogues moins enchantés.
Easy Rider, pour lequel Peter Fonda a été nommé aux Oscars dans la catégorie meilleur scénario, a ouvert une nouvelle ère à Hollywood

Après ce succès, Peter Fonda a multiplié les rôles dans différents registres, aussi bien au cinéma qu'à la télévision. En 1998, il avait concouru aux Oscars pour son rôle dans le film L'Or de la vie, de Victor Nuñez, qui lui a valu un Golden Globe.

Peter Fonda, qui comptait célébrer le 50e anniversaire de la sortie d'Easy Rider, avait préparé une projection de ce long-métrage légendaire, à New York, le 20 septembre prochain. Des musiciens devaient interpréter la bande-son rock du film, dont l'inoubliable Born to Be Wild, du groupe Steppenwolf.

Militant écologiste fervent, l'acteur avait marqué le festival de Cannes en 2011 en qualifiant le président américain de l'époque, Barack Obama, de « putain de traître » (« you are a fucking traitor ») en lui reprochant sa gestion d'une marée noire dans le Golfe du Mexique provoquée par le naufrage de la plate-forme pétrolière Deepwater Horizon.

« Tandis que nous pleurons la perte de cet homme doux et gracieux, nous souhaitons aussi célébrer son esprit indomptable et son amour de la vie. En l'honneur de Peter, portez un toast à la liberté, s'il vous plaît. », a écrit la famille de l'acteur en annonçant sa mort

ACCORD HISTORIQUE AU SOUDAN

ENTRE LES MILITAIRES ET LES CIVILS

Les militaires au pouvoir et les meneurs de la contestation au Soudan ont scellé ce samedi un accord historique ouvrant la voie à un transfert du pouvoir aux civils. Une cérémonie s’est déroulée samedi après-midi à Khartoum sur les bords du Nil pour la signature des documents qui définissent les 39 mois de transition à venir.

Par cette signature, Mohammed Hamdan Daglo, numéro deux du Conseil militaire, et Ahmed Al-Rabie, représentant de l’Alliance pour la liberté et le changement (ALC) et fer de lance de la contestation, ouvrent ainsi la voie à un transfert du pouvoir aux civils.

L’accord conclu début août a mis fin à près de huit mois d’un mouvement de contestation inédit qui a mené le 11 avril à la chute du président Omar el-Béchir, resté 30 ans au pouvoir, avant de se retourner contre les généraux du Conseil militaire de transition qui a pris sa succession.

« Pouvoir civil »

Conclu à la faveur d’une médiation de l’Ethiopie et de l'Union africaine, cet accord a été accueilli avec soulagement des deux côtés, les manifestants célébrant la victoire de leur « révolution ».

Les premières étapes de la transition devraient suivre la signature avec l’annonce dimanche de la composition du Conseil souverain en majorité constitué de civils qui doit mener la transition. Jeudi, l’Alliance pour la liberté et le changement (ALC), le fer de lance de la contestation, a désigné Abdallah Hamdok, un ex-économiste de l’ONU, pour devenir Premier ministre. Le Conseil souverain doit annoncer mardi s’il le confirme à ce poste.

Limiter le pouvoir de l'élite militaire

Des élections sont prévues pour 2022. Les militaires sont minoritaires au sein des 11 membres du Conseil souverain qui doit gouverner 40 millions de Soudanais, même si celui-ci sera d’abord dirigé par un général pendant 21 mois. Et si les ministres de l’Intérieur et de la Défense seront choisis par les militaires.

Les premières étapes de la transition devraient suivre la signature avec l’annonce dimanche de la composition du Conseil souverain en majorité constitué de civils (6 civils contre 5 militaires) qui doit mener la transition. Jeudi 15 août, l’Alliance pour la liberté et le changement (ALC), le fer de lance de la contestation, a désigné Abdallah Hamdok, un ex-économiste de l’Organisation des Nations unies (ONU), pour devenir premier ministre. Le Conseil souverain doit annoncer mardi s’il le confirme à ce poste. M. Hamdok aura alors la lourde tâche de relever l’économie du pays qui s’est écroulée après que la sécession du Sud en 2011, la privant des trois quarts de ses réserves de pétrole.

Des élections sont prévues pour 2022.

Si les militaires sont minoritaires au sein du Conseil souverain (11 membres) qui doit gouverner 40 millions de Soudanais, celui-ci sera d’abord dirigé par un général pendant vingt et un mois. Et les ministres de l’intérieur et de la défense seront choisis par les militaires.

« Le plus gros défi du gouvernement sera le démantèlement des [entités informelles] islamistes qui ont pris le contrôle de toutes les institutions de l’Etat et des secteurs-clés de l’économie », affirme Rosalind Marsden, du groupe de réflexion Chatham House établi à Londres.

Un accord historique dans un pays dévasté par trente ans de gestion calamiteuse et un pouvoir autoritaire et corrompu fondé sur le code légal islamique.

ALERTE A LA DEFORESTATION EN AMAZONIE

ET SUBVENTIONS BLOQUEES

Les donateurs du fonds pour l’Amazonie bloquent tour à tour leurs dons : ils se disent effrayés par la déforestation galopante du fait de la politique de Jair Bolsonaro. Aussi la Norvège, pionnière dans la lutte écologique, a annoncé par la voix de son ministre de l’environnement et du climat a annoncé, jeudi 15 août, le blocage de 30 millions d’euros de subventions destinées au Brésil.

« Le Brésil a rompu l’accord avec la Norvège et l’Allemagne depuis que le pays a suspendu le conseil d’administration et le comité technique du fonds pour l’Amazonie », a estimé Ola Elvestuen dans le journal norvégien Dagens Naeringsliv (DN). Oslo versait pas moins de 8,3 milliards de couronnes (828 millions d’euros) chaque année à ce fonds pour l’Amazonie, créé en 2008, mais, d’après le gouvernement norvégien, le Brésil ne semble « plus souhaiter arrêter la déforestation ».

A l'appui des chiffres officiels : le déboisement en juillet a été quatre fois supérieur au même mois en 2018. La Norvège qui estime que le gouvernement brésilien ne peut « pas faire cela sans que la Norvège et l’Allemagne ne soient d’accord », a jugé le ministre Elvestuen.

Depuis l’arrivée au pouvoir du président d’extrême droite Jair Bolsonaro, le gouvernement allemand a également annoncé samedi suspendre une partie de ses subventions. Berlin a ainsi bloqué 35 millions d’euros jusqu’à ce que les chiffres de la déforestation redeviennent encourageants, tout en continuant toutefois de contribuer au Fonds de préservation de la forêt amazonienne.

Bolsonaro a affirmé que son pays n’avait « pas besoin » des subventions allemandes. Le président Brésilien martèle qu’il ne cédera pas à la « psychose environnementale » et que « l’Amazonie est à nous, pas à vous ».

HONG KONG VERS UN NOUVEAU TIAN'ANMEN ?

«  La marche de dimanche devrait encore rassembler un million de personnes. Le peuple hongkongais ne peut pas être battu  », a déclaré sur Facebook la députée prodémocratie Claudia Mo.

L'ex-colonie britannique vit depuis début juin sa pire crise politique depuis sa rétrocession à la Chine en 1997, avec des manifestations quasi quotidiennes. Des centaines de milliers de manifestants hongkongais réclament l’abandon d’un projet de loi controversé et davantage de démocratie.

Pékin, d’abord distant face au mouvement de contestation, a durci ces derniers jours le ton, allant jusqu’à laisser flotter la menace d’une intervention militaire en déployant dans la ville-frontière Shenzhen ses troupes et ses blindés. La Chine a menacé jeudi de ne pas rester « les bras croisés » si la contestation pro- démocratie devait dégénérer.

Des revendications élargies et de nouvelles manifestations

En effet les manifestants hongkongais ont élargi leurs revendications, ajoutant la demande d’un véritable suffrage universel et une enquête indépendante sur les violences policières survenues pendant la mobilisation. Parallèlement des violences ont émaillé certaines manifestations, entre policiers et civils, mais aussi avec des membres de la mafia locale. On a vu des membres des triades aller frapper les manifestants.

Vers une intervention de Pékin ?

Les troupes et blindés chinois sont massés à la frontière mais une intervention de l’armée populaire de Chine sur le territoire hongkongais, même si elle est permise par la loi fondamentale de Hong Kong à la demande du gouverneur de Hong Kong, en l’occurrence Carrie Liam, ne semble pas être envisagée.

En effet cette décision, juridiquement possible, s'avère par contre politiquement et économiquement très risquée. Et la Chine continentale possède d'autres leviers. N'a-elle pas déjà fait pression sur les entreprises en faisant démissionner, notamment, le président de Cathay Pacific qui a annoncé sa démission ce vendredi ? Rupert Hogg a démissionné, « assumant la responsabilité, en tant que dirigeant de la compagnie, des récents événements », précise Cathay dans un communiqué.

Les dirigeants de Cathay s'étaient pourtant empressés de rassurer Pékin en prenant leurs distances par rapport à la mobilisation pro-démocratie de certains de ses 27 000 employés, promettant de licencier tout employé soutenant ou participant aux « manifestations illégales ».

La compagnie aérienne de Hong Kong a également été prise pour cible par les médias d'Etat chinois. «Les quatre péchés de Cathay Pacific Airlines», a titré le Quotidien du peuple, l'organe de presse du Parti communiste au pouvoir, en énumérant des actions des personnels du groupe considérées comme favorables au mouvement de contestation. Des appels à boycotter la compagnie se sont répandus sur les réseaux sociaux et le hasthag #BoycottCathayPacific apparu la semaine dernière sur le site de Weibo a généré jusqu'à mercredi plus de 45 millions de vues.

Les images de manœuvres militaires sont donc plutôt une intimidation, mais également un test de la réaction internationale .

Le quasi silence international et le tweet de Donald Trump

Mais les démocraties occidentales ne réagissent pour l'instant que très mollement face à la situation sachant qu' Hong Kong finira officiellement par retourner à la Chine au plus tard en 2047.

A Washington ce conflit intervient sur fond de guerre commerciale entre les États-Unis et la Chine. Jeudi 15 août, le conseiller à la Maison Blanche John Bolton évoquait le massacre de la place Tian'anmen en 1989. Une référence qui ne passe pas, alors que la Chine menace Hong Kong d'une intervention militaire.

Dans un Tweet, Donald Trump a suggéré à son homologue chinois d'aller rencontrer en personne les manifestants hongkongais.

L'UE comme les Etats-Unis conjurent les parties en place d'éviter de monter davantage en épingle le conflit. Washington a prévenu Pékin que toute intervention militaire serait « une grosse erreur ».

Par ailleurs, l'UE a, quant à elle, appelé les deux camps à « un dialogue large et inclusif », par la voix de la cheffe de sa diplomatie Federica Mogherini. « Il est crucial de faire preuve de retenue, de rejeter la violence et de prendre des mesures urgentes pour désamorcer la situation », a-t-elle déclaré dans un communiqué.

« Le peuple hongkongais ne peut pas être battu »

Des manifestants ont appelé à des rassemblements samedi à Hung Hom et To Kwa Wan, quartiers du front de mer prisés des touristes venant de Chine continentale, deux manifestations qui n'ont pas été autorisées.

Et la principale manifestation du week-end est attendue dimanche, véritable test de la détermination des militants pro-démocratie comme de celle des autorités pro-Pékin.

« La marche de dimanche devrait encore rassembler un million de personnes. Le peuple hongkongais ne peut pas être battu », a déclaré sur Facebook la députée prodémocratie Claudia Mo.

L'appel a été lancé par le Front civil des droits de l'homme, organisation non violente à l'origine des manifestations géantes de juin et juillet.

Si la police a donné son feu vert au rassemblement dans un grand parc de l'île de Hong Kong, elle a aussi interdit aux manifestants de défiler dans la rue. Ce genre d'interdiction a presque systématiquement été ignoré par les manifestants ces dernières semaines, donnant lieu à des heurts avec les forces de l'ordre.

Les manifestants de ce samedi 17 août , qui ont tout de même défilé par milliers avant de se disperser en début de soirée, préfèrent garder leurs forces pour un rassemblement plus vaste et rassembleur, ce dimanche. Le 16 juin, il y eut une manifestation de deux millions de personnes pour sept millions d'habitants...

La solution ne peut venir que d'un dialogue entre les manifestants de Hong Kong et le gouvernement de Pékin.

ACHETER LE GROENLAND UNE IDEE

DE DONALD TRUMP

Donald Trump, magnat immobilier avant de devenir président des Etats-Unis, aurait jeté son dévolu sur un espace quasiment vierge à la hauteur de ses ambitions :

le Groenland. Le Wall Street Journal rapporte en effet que le président américain se serait enquis plusieurs fois auprès de ses conseillers à la Maison Blanche de la possibilité d’acheter ce territoire danois de 56 000 habitants pour les Etats-Unis.

Les sources du journal new-yorkais ont indiqué que l’occupant du bureau ovale aurait évoqué l’idée lors d’une réunion du conseil juridique de la Maison-Blanche et au cours d’un dîner.Un désir qui n'est pas au goût du gouvernement de l'île, pour qui «le Groenland n'est pas à vendre». Une déclaration faite par communiqué, ce vendredi 16 août. Ajoutant que «le Groenland était ouvert aux affaires, pas à la vente.»

« Le Groenland est riche en ressources précieuses (…). Nous sommes ouverts aux affaires, pas à la vente », a rétorqué sur Twitter le ministère groenlandais des Affaires étrangères. Le cabinet de la Première ministre Mette Frederiksen n'a pas souhaité faire de commentaire dans l'immédiat tandis que l’ex-chef du gouvernement danois Lars Lars Løkke Rasmussen a préféré y voir en estimant que « un poisson d’avril ».

Le Groenland est une gigantesque île arctique, grande comme quatre fois la France, où les effets du réchauffement climatique sont manifestes. La fonte des glaces, qui entraîne la hausse du niveau des mers, y a été multipliée par quatre entre 2003 et 2013.

Depuis son élection en 2016, le président Trump, climato-sceptique, a notamment retiré les Etats-Unis de l’Accord de Paris sur le climat cherchant à détricoter les réglementations environnementales adoptées pendant les huit ans de la présidence du démocrate Barack Obama.

L’élu républicain ne semble pas avoir totalement mis derrière lui ses premières amours immobilières : l’année dernière, lors de son sommet à Singapour avec Kim Jong Un, il avait souligné le potentiel de développement touristique de la Corée du Nord. « Par exemple, il y a des super plages », avait-il expliqué. « On le voit à chaque fois qu’ils font exploser leurs canons dans la mer. Je me dis, dis-donc, regarde-moi cette vue. Ca ne ferait pas des supers apparts ? »

Dans les faits, il est possible d'acheter un pays et certains Etats ont acquis des territoires par la conquête militaire ou des accords financiers. L'achat d'un territoire serait loin d'être une première pour les Etats-Unis. L'exemple le plus emblématique reste l'achat de la Louisiane, vendue par la France en 1803 pour 15 millions de dollars, afin de financer les campagnes militaires de Napoléon Bonaparte . En 1867, les Etats-Unis ont réitéré en rachetant l'Alaska à la Russie pour 7,2 millions de dollars. Leur dernier achat date de 102 ans quand, en 1917, le pays a acquis pour 25 millions de dollars, les Iles Vierges et leurs 26 000 habitants... au Danemark justement.

Et ce n'est pas la première fois que la Maison Blanche évoque l'idée d'acquérir cette île gelée. En 1946, le président Truman avait proposé au Danemark d'acheter le Groenland pour 100 millions de dollars, afin d'en faire un avant-poste militaire.

Le pays s'est vu accorder l'autonomie par les Danois en 1979 et, en 2008, a obtenu par référendum une autonomie encore plus étendue par rapport au Danemark.

VENERATION D'UN ANDROIDE PAR

DES MOINES BOUDDHISTES AU JAPON

« La grande différence entre un moine et un robot est que nous autres allons mourir, alors que lui va rencontrer beaucoup de monde et emmagasiner énormément d'informations qui le feront évoluer à l'infini », confie l'administrateur du temple Tensho Goto.

Kyoto, an­cienne capi­tale du Japon, est consi­déré comme le lieu de nais­sance de la tradi­tion japo­naise. Ils sont plus de 53 millions de touristes à se rendre chaque année dans les sanc­tuaires et les temples de l’ar­chi­pel. Cons­truit en 1605, le temple Kodaiji à Kyoto consti­tue l’un des héri­tages cultu­rels japo­nais les plus impor­tants pour son culte boud­dhiste.

Or le temple construit par sa femme en hommage à Toyotomi Hideyoshi, puissant seigneur du XVIème siècle, dispose désormais d'un Kannon androïde pour ses prêches au public. Kannon est le nom japonais de l’un des bodhisattva – un bouddha avant que celui-ci n’ait atteint l’éveil – les plus connus et les plus vénérés dans le monde. Dans sa version androïde, la divinité a commencé à officier courant mois de mai. Il projette aussi les versions traduites en anglais et en chinois sur l’écran. L’androïde peut aussi bouger ses bras, son torse et sa tête. Et certaines de ses pièces mécaniques sont visibles !

Le robot en question est baptisé Mindar, il a été programmé pour délivrer un sermon en japonais du Sūtra du Cœur, un texte boud­dhiste fonda­teur fréquem­ment récité machi­na­le­ment par des moines.

L’ad­mi­nis­tra­teur du temple Tensho Goto veut recréer du lien entre la jeune géné­ra­tion et le boud­dhisme. Il a ainsi solli­cité l’aide de Hiro­shi Ishi­guro, respon­sable de la robo­tique intel­li­gente Ulyces à l’Université de Osaka. « Nous espérons que ce Kannon androïde aidera à faire pénétrer les enseignements du bouddhisme dans le cœur des gens d’aujourd’hui » , déclarait Tensho Goto, l’un des prêtres du temple.

Ce Kannon ultra moderne, d'un coût de 100 millions de yen (790 000€), peut -il remplacer les prêtres en chair et en os toujours bien là au temple Kodaiji ?

CATASTROPHE ECOLOGIQUE SUR L'ILE D'EUBEE

C'est une « catastrophe écologique » sur l'île d'Eubée ravagée par les flammes depuis plus de 30 heures l’un des refuges les mieux préservés de la faune et la flore sauvages en Grèce. « C’est une énorme catastrophe écologique dans une forêt de pins unique », qui était restée « intacte » jusqu’à ce jour, a déclaré le gouverneur régional sortant Costas Bakoyannis.

Les pompiers grecs se battaient mercredi pour venir à bout du violent incendie qui ravage depuis mardi une réserve naturelle classée sur l'île d'Eubée, en Grèce, où le gouverneur local déplore déjà « une énorme catastrophe écologique ».

Le sinistre, qui évolue sur un front de 12 km, n’a pas fait de victime mais a entraîné l’évacuation de quatre villages de l’île, la deuxième de Grèce par sa taille après la Crète, située à une centaine de kilomètres au nord-est d’Athènes. « De Psachna à Kontodespoti et Makrymalli, tout est brûlé. Nous avons la chance de ne pas avoir de victimes humaines », a rapporté Thanassis Karakatzas, un responsable de la protection civile.

Quelque 200 pompiers sont sur place, aidés de 75 véhicules terrestres, neuf hélicoptères et sept avions bombardiers d’eau, selon les services d’incendie grecs. Un bombardier d’eau italien devait venir leur prêter main-forte dans la journée, avant le renfort attendu dans la soirée de deux avions d’Espagne et d’un autre d’Italie. A la demande de la Grèce, l’Union européenne (UE) a mobilisé ses moyens du mécanisme rescUE, opérationnel en prévision des feux de forêt en Europe.

La Grèce, où le thermomètre est monté jusqu’à 40 °C, a été touchée ces derniers jours par une série d’incendies. Le chef de la protection civile a placé les services d’urgence à un niveau d’alerte très élevé en raison de la combinaison de températures caniculaires, de vents violents et de la sécheresse.

CHAOS POLITIQUE EN ITALIE

LA LIGUE DE MATTEO SALVINI DANS L'OPPOSITION

Matteo Salvini va-t-il bientôt retourner dans l'opposition, alors qu 'il réclamait les « pleins pouvoirs » à l'issue de nouvelles élections ?

C'est ce qui pourrait se profiler après que le Sénat italien a rejeté mardi le projet de motion de censure du gouvernement de Giuseppe Conte,qui reposait depuis 14 mois sur une alliance entre la Ligue de Salvini et le Mouvement 5 Etoiles (M5S) de Luigi Di Maio.

Vers la voix d'un « Italexit » ?

Le ministre de l'Intérieur avait fait exploser la coalition la semaine dernière appelant au vote de ce texte au plus vite pour retourner aux urnes, alors que les sondages lui sont favorables. « Allons tout de suite au Parlement pour prendre acte qu'il n'y a plus de majorité (…) et restituons rapidement la parole aux électeurs », avait-il expliqué jeudi dans un communiqué.

En s'associant au reste de la droite, notamment Berlusconi et Fratelli d'Italia, avec qui il partage nombre de valeurs, Salvini est crédité d'à peu près 54 % des voix. Fort de sa popularité, le ministre de l'Intérieur veut tout simplement obtenir les coudées franches pour porter le fer contre Bruxelles.

Vers une majorité alternative et un cabinet de techniciens

Or le vote conjoint du M5S, ancien allié de la Ligue, et du Parti démocrate poussé par Matteo Renzi pourrait ouvrir la voie à une majorité alternative et les sénateurs ont demandé à Giuseppe Conte de venir s'exprimer au Parlement mardi prochain, pour tenter de dénouer la crise.

En refusant la défiance contre l'exécutif, le Sénat a fait barrage à Salvini . Malgré l'alliance renouée avec ses vieux alliés de la droite traditionnelle, Forza Italia du « Cavalliere » vieillissant Berlusconi et les néo-fascistes de Frères d'Italie, « Il Capitano », fort de son triomphe lors des européennes de mai - 34 % des suffrages - n' a pas obtenu de majorité au Sénat.

Le « capitaine Fracasse Salvini a raté son rendez-vous et créé une crise inattendue même pour les siens », a attaqué Matteo Renzi. L'ex-président du Conseil (2014-2016) a proposé au M5S d'unir leurs forces derrière un « gouvernement institutionnel » et « no tax » (anti-impôts), qui réduirait le nombre de parlementaires et adopterait le budget 2020.

Une association entre les sociaux-démocrates et les populistes permettrait d'éviter une crise gouvernementale et des élections législatives anticipées.

De plus le président, Sergio Mattarella, le seul à détenir le pouvoir de dissoudre le Parlement, rechigne à convoquer l'électorat au moment où son pays, endetté, doit adopter le prochain budget tout en marchandant avec Bruxelles.

Ce démocrate-chrétien envisagerait de confier à l'actuel président du Conseil, Giuseppe Conte, la formation d' un cabinet de techniciens...Une alternative pour « sauver l'Italie » du péril d'une « dérive extrémiste » pour Renzi et de conjurer le spectre du « chaos politique » qui «pourrait entraîner le pays hors de l'Europe », selon Enrico Lettade.

Longtemps ardente partisane de la construction européenne, l'Italie compte aujourd'hui parmi les déçus de l'UE, que l'on parle d'économie, de monnaie unique ou de politique migratoire.

THE JEFFREY EPSTEIN CASE

Mr. J. Epstein was arrested and charged in early July for organizing for several years, a network of dozens of girls under his control, some college girls, with whom he had sex in his many properties, including Manhattan and Florida . His trial was to open at best in June 2020.

"The US survey has highlighted links with France. It thus seems to us fundamental, for the victims, that an investigation is opened in France so that all the light is made ", write in a release the secretaries of State Marlène Schiappa and Adrien Taquet. His death "must not deprive victims of the justice to which they are entitled," he says. A trial is the "essential condition" for the victims to rebuild themselves and "it is also a condition for more effective protection in the future of other girls facing this type of organized networks, facing this type of predators ".

The US survey revealed the billionaire's ties with France.
The United States has submitted a number of elements to the Paris Public Prosecutor's Office concerning the Epstein case and the first checks are underway. They will make it possible to decide whether or not an investigation should be opened.

What is certain is that Epstein had his habits in Paris for twenty years: regular round trips and a luxurious pied à terre near the Arc-de-Triomphe. This is where one of her accusers, an Australian actress would have been "lent" to one of his friends, a French, director of a modeling agency, based in New York.

A few hours after the request of the two ministers, the custody of the Seals, Nicole Belloubet, recalled that it did not belong to the government to decide "pursuits". "Prosecutions are not government decisions Since 2013, individual instructions are prohibited, in accordance with the principle of independence of the judiciary," said the Minister of Justice.

In a letter to the Paris public prosecutor, the association Innocence in danger indicates that it sent him a report on 23 July and underlines that "France is concerned by this file since investigations carried out by the FBI French nationality ".

The testimonies that emerged through documents and American media media portray this businessman the image of an insatiable predator of young girls, he recruited dozens and come in his sumptuous residences.

His name was already on the sex offender file after a first conviction over 10 years ago for prostitution in Florida - for which he was sentenced to a 13-month sentence after a disputed agreement with a federal prosecutor. A search in early July in his home in the upscale Upper East Side in Manhattan had revealed a massage room where he allegedly dragged his alleged victims. The Miami Herald newspaper investigated the deal in 2018, relaunching the investigation. In July, after Jeffrey Epstein was indicted in New York, former Florida attorney Alexander Acosta, who became Labor Minister of the Trump administration, had to resign.

Jeffrey Epstein was scheduled to appear in US courts in 2020. He was facing 45 years in jail. He was denied bail on 18 July as prosecutors said he was at risk of escaping from abroad.

The death in prison of Jeffrey Epstein gives rise in any case to several theories of conspiracy and a scandal in the United States, some believing more in murder than suicide because of its many connections in the circles of power and in particular Democrats.

UN GRAND TARANTINO

ONCE UPON A TIME... IN HOLLYWOOD

Le spectateur peut dans un premier temps se sentir dérouté par un long-métrage de Quentin Tarantino, avec ses atouts fétiches que ce soit la construction narrative éclatée de Pulp Fiction, de Reservoir Dogs, le révisionnisme historique d' Inglorious Basterds ou de Django Unchained et ou encore le thème de la vengeance de Kill Bill ou de Boulevard de la mort.

La caméra s’incruste tout simplement, comme dans un documentaire, dans les arcanes du septième art à Hollywood.

Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) et Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) sont au cœur du neuvième film de Quentin Tarantino. Le premier est un acteur à succès d’une série, mais qui peine à retrouver un second souffle avec le cascadeur Cliff Booth, sa doublure de longue date au cinéma tandis qu'un producteur (campé par Al Pacino) lui conseille le recyclage dans les séries B de Cinecittà. Deux larrons à l’ancienne, qui voient leur monde s’éteindre alors qu’Hollywood devient le repère de la vague hippie et de la contre-culture organisée.

Au spectateur alors de voyager dans les coulisses du Hollywood de 1969, entre scènes tragi-comiques et gags, scènes de cascade, jouée avec nonchalance par Brad Pitt pas en reste pour distribuer des torgnoles à la ronde, façon Bud Spencer..

Entre les hippies, la beauté de Los Angeles et un casting dément (comprenant Margot Robbie, Emile Hirsch, Al Pacino, Dakota Fanning ou encore Kurt Russell et Michael Madsen), Quentin Tarantino promène sa caméra.

Mais Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood n’est pas un Tarantino comme on les connaît . A contre-courant de son cinéma, loin de la violence graphique et stylisée, de la mise en scène explosive ou encore de l’art des dialogues écrits au couteau, ce long-métrage se fait lent, contemplatif d’une période oubliée, une carte postale californienne à la fois réelle et fictionnelle d’un certain rêve américain. Sans oublier l'ombre de Sharon Tate assassinée par la secte Manson, qui surgit de la fiction pour mieux rattacher l’œuvre à une réalité historique, située au crépuscule du mouvement hippie.

« Once upon a time » (« Il était une fois ») n’est pas un titre choisi par hasard.

« C’est la clé des contes, la formule magique qui délivre de toutes autres limites que celles de l’imagination ».

Avec Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, sorti le 27 juillet aux États-Unis, le scénariste a réalisé son meilleur démarrage en salles. A voir absolument.

COURSE A L'ARMEMEMENT NUCLEAIRE

ENTRE LA RUSSIE ET LES ETATS-UNIS

Quatre jours après l'explosion à caractère nucléaire ayant fait au moins cinq morts sur une base du Grand Nord, les autorités russes ont reconnu lundi que l'accident était lié aux tests de « nouveaux armements », promettant de les mener « jusqu'au bout ».

Missile à « portée illimitée »?

Selon des experts américains l'accident pourrait être lié aux tests du missile de croisière « Bourevestnik »(« oiseau de tempête » en russe), missile à propulsion nucléaire , l'une des nouvelles armes « invincibles » vantées par le président Vladimir Poutine en début d'année.

Le président russe avait en effet fait sensation l'année dernière puis début 2019 en présentant la nouvelle génération de missiles développés par son pays, « invincibles », « indétectables » ou « hypersoniques ». D'une « portée illimitée » selon le président, ils seraient capables de surmonter quasiment tous les systèmes d'interception. Le chef du Kemlin a d'ailleurs menacé de déployer ces nouvelles armes pour viser les « centres de décision » dans les pays occidentaux.

Malgré la mort d' au moins cinq personnes et sans être aussi précise, l'agence nucléaire russe a assuré lundi vouloir « continuer le travail sur les nouveaux types d'armes, qui sera dans tous les cas poursuivi jusqu'au bout ».

D'après l'agence nucléaire, ses spécialistes fournissaient de l'ingénierie et du support technique pour « la source d'énergie isotopique » du moteur du missile à l'origine de l'explosion, qui s'est produite sur une « plateforme maritime » et qui a jeté plusieurs employés à la mer.

La course aux armements nucléaires

De son côté le président américain Donald Trump a affirmé lundi en savoir « beaucoup » sur l'explosion, assurant même que les Etats-Unis avaient une arme similaire .

« Les Etats-Unis en ont appris beaucoup sur l'explosion d'un missile défectueux en Russie », a tweeté Donald Trump, mentionnant le missile « Skyfall ». « Nous avons une technologie similaire, mais plu avancée ».

Une affirmation aussitôt démentie par un expert respecté. « Voilà qui est bizarre. Nous n'avons pas de programme de missile de croisière à propulsion nucléaire », a répliqué, lui aussi sur Twitter, l'expert américain Joe Cirincione. « Nous avons essayé d'en développer un, dans les années 1960, mais c'était trop délirant, trop infaisable », a ajouté le président de la fondation Ploughshares Fund, qui milite pour une dénucléarisation globale.

« Continuer le travail sur les nouveaux types d'armes » , selon l'agence Rosatom

La base où s'est produit l'accident de jeudi, ouverte en 1954 et spécialisée dans les essais de missiles de la flotte russe, notamment des missiles balistiques, est située près du village de Nionoska, dans le Grand Nord. La ville fermée de Sarov, qui accueille le principal centre de recherches nucléaires russe, connu sous le nom de code « Arzamas-16 » durant la Guerre froide, a décrété dimanche une journée de deuil et les cinq spécialistes tués seront décorés à titre posthume après leurs funérailles lundi.

« Ils ont pris une double responsabilité: dans le développement de technologies et d'équipements uniques et en prenant le risque physique d'effectuer des tests uniques », a déclaré lors de la cérémonie Sergueï Kirienko, membre de l'administration présidentielle et ancien patron de Rosatom, saluant de « vrais héros ».

« Nous remplirons les devoirs que nous a confiés notre Patrie. Sa sécurité sera entièrement assurée », a affirmé le patron de Rosatom, Alexeï Likhatchev, cité par les agences de presse russes.

HOMMAGE AU DJ ARAFAT

Victime d'un accident de moto dans la nuit du 11 au 12 août à Abidjan, l'artiste ivoirien Ange Didier Huon - alias DJ Arafat - est mort à 33 ans des suites de ses blessures dans une clinique d'Abidjan.

La star du "coupé-décalé" a eu un grave accident de la route, survenu dans la nuit de dimanche à lundi. Sa moto a percuté une voiture conduite par une journaliste de Radio Côte d’Ivoire. Le chanteur, inconscient, a été rapidement pris en charge et admis en soins intensifs.

« Il a été admis aux urgences dans un état végétatif. Il avait notamment une fracture du crâne et un œdème », a détaillé un médecin de la Polyclinique. Les équipes de l’établissement ont tenté de le ranimer, « en vain ». Son décès a finalement été confirmé par la Radiodiffusion télévision ivoirienne (RTI) : « Décès de l'artiste DJ Arafat, de son vrai nom Houon Ange Didier, ce lundi 12 août à 8 heures, des suites d'un accident de la circulation qui s'est produit dans la nuit de dimanche. »

Symbole du « coupé-décalé »

A seulement 33 ans, DJ Arafat était considéré comme une des grandes stars de l’Afrique francophone, figure majeure du coupé-décalé en Côte d’Ivoire.

Né en 1986 à Abidjan, DJ Arafat était le fils d’une autre artiste ivoirienne bien connue : la sulfureuse chanteuse Tina Glamour.

Ange Didier Huon a connu une enfance difficile qui le fait sombrer dans l’alcool et le banditisme, dès l’âge de 11 ans. C’est le producteur Roland Le Binguiste qui le repère quelques années plus tard, alors qu’il se rend régulièrement dans le plus grand maquis abidjanais, surnommé Shangaï.

En 2003, aux prémices du mouvement « coupé-décalé », un style musical jouissant d’une très grande popularité en Côte d'Ivoire, DJ Arafat se fait connaître du grand public avec son titre Hommage à Jonathan suivi d’un premier album, « Goudron Noir ».

Le style musical du « coupé-décalé » a été lancé par la jeunesse ivoirienne, inspiré des rythmes des percussions accompagnés d’une danse devenue célèbre. L’arrivée du « coupé-décalé » en Côte d’Ivoire correspond à peu près au début de la guerre civile ivoirienne en 2002.

Surnommé Arafat pour son tempérament

Avec un fort tempérament, le jeune Didier Huon se fait surnommer Yasser Arafat par ses amis libanais. Une référence à l’ancien dirigeant du Fatah et de l’Organisation de la libération de la Palestine. L’artiste a décidé de faire de ce surnom son nom de scène.

Grâce à son premier album, l’artiste se fait inviter en France par le promoteur de spectacles Désiré Kouadio. En 2005, après la sortie de son deuxième opus Femme, il décide de s’installer à Paris, malgré l’expiration prochaine de son visa.

Le chanteur compositeur est revenu sur le devant de la scène avec un troisième album qui rencontre un grand succès en 2008. L’artiste, alors âgé de 22 ans, se hisse en tête des classements en Afrique francophone. C’est en 2010 que DJ Arafat devient réellement l’emblème du mouvement « coupé-décalé » avec un concert au Palais de la Culture d’Abidjan.

Au cœur de nombreuses polémiques

En dehors de son succès musical, l’artiste est au centre de multiples polémiques. Il a notamment été pointé du doigt pour des affaires de violences conjugales sur son ex-compagne. Il a également entretenu de nombreuses rivalités avec des artistes tels que son binôme Debordo Leekunfa, avec qui il a connu ses premiers succès.

Malgré ces polémiques, les hommages pleuvent. A’salfo, le leader de Magic System, a notamment réagi auprès de Jeune Afrique :

« Le petit est parti. Il a vécu comme une étoile filante, a-t-il déclaré avec émotion. Nous sommes tous effondrés. Dans le style du zouglou, à l’international, il y a Magic System. Pour le coupe-décalé, c’était DJ Arafat… C’est une grande perte pour la musique ivoirienne. »

MALAISE IN HONG KONG

WHAT FUTURE FOR THE COUNTRY ?

For four days now, the airport has been the scene of a peaceful sit-in of thousands of protesters seeking to raise awareness among travelers to their cause with songs and slogans explaining the meaning of the prodemocracy demonstrations that have been blazing the city since June.

More than 5,000 protesters gathered Monday at the Hong Kong International Airport, after a weekend marked by new clashes on the island. Hong Kong Airport has announced the cancellation for Monday 12 August of all flights departing and arriving due to the scale of a protest at its main terminal. "With the exception of departing departing flights and arriving flights that are already on their way to Hong Kong, all other flights have been canceled for the remainder of the day," the report said. airport authority in a statement.

This is an unprecedented decision for this internationally recognized airport for its efficiency, which in 2018 was the eighth busiest airport in the world, with 74 million passengers.

But after ten consecutive weekends of demonstrations in the territory, which was again enamelled of serious violence between radicals and police, the number of demonstrators increased significantly Monday at the airport, where they were more than 5 000, according to the police.

Born in early June of the rejection of a bill that would have allowed extraditions to China, the mobilization in Hong Kong has broadened its demands, now focused on denouncing a decline in freedoms and interference from China.

"One country, two systems" until when?

At the end of the 1984 agreement between London and Beijing which presided over its retrocession in 1997, Hong Kong enjoyed a semi-autonomy and freedoms that did not exist in mainland China and, in theory, until 2047 .

But in recent years, the Chinese power systematically interpreted restrictive texts governing the autonomy of Hong Kong. A draft law provides for the authorization of extraditions to China. Controversial, he has already provoked unprecedented protests in Hong Kong. But this bill presents serious risks in terms of human rights. Does not Hong Kong benefit from an autonomous judicial system ("One country, two systems," launched Deng Xiaoping), since 1997, when the former British colony was handed over to China ?

The former British colony, however, has been the scene of intense political unrest over the last decade due to the concern over Beijing's growing interference in its internal affairs, and the feeling that retrocession and the famous principle "One country, two systems" are no longer respected.

FRENCH NOT CONVINCED IN MAJORITY

BY UNIVERSAL INCOME ?

This measure would consist in attributing to all the French, without condition of resource, that they work or not, a lifetime income included between 500 and 1.000 euros per month ...

A generous idea, of course ...

Universal income would be neither a "good" nor a "fair" measure for a majority of French (64% of respondents) who believe it would create a society of "assisted", according to an Odoxa survey conducted Challenges and Aviva insurance.

85% think that they themselves would work to make more money.

And far from them inactivity as a source of well - being ...

Anyway the policies of any edge, with the approach of the presidential ones, have once again launched a test balloon without explaining the tenants and culminating !!!

A simple technical measure that no one can intelligently implement.

Once again: amateurish !!!.

THE INDISPENSABLE PROTECTION OF

ITS TATOO IN THE SUN

TONI MORRISON THE AFRO-AMERICAN DREAM

Chloe Ardelia Wofford, aka Toni Morrison, was born on February 18, 1931 in Lorain, an industrial town in a Midwestern, Ohio, rural state. She grew up in a modest family descended from slaves.

At the age of 12, she chose Anthony as her first name - Chloe Anthony Wofford - and the diminutive, Toni, remains.

A passionate academic of literature

Passionate about literature, she went to Washington in 1949 where she enrolled at Howard University, then reserved for blacks. She graduated in literature from the prestigious Cornell University, and began a university career. Married in 1958 to Harold Morrison, an architect, she has two sons. The couple divorced six years later.

In 1964, Toni Morrison moved to Syracuse, New York where she became a textbook publisher. At the same time, she began her writing career with her first book, The Bluest Eye , in 1970. But the young woman is even bigger: the publishing house in which she works has just been bought by the prestigious Random House. Toni Morrison wants to propose to publish books that speak to women, or even blacks.

After all, "Things were very simple at the time," says Morrison. I was young, I started writing when I was 39 years old. It is the summit of life. My children were a real liberation because their needs were simple. (...). The children did not pay attention to my hairstyle, did not care about my appearance. She said in 2012 to a Guardian journalist.

Preserve the memory of the black American people

Ambitious project that this one. How to preserve the memory of the black American people?

Toni Morrison grew up in a time when segregation was still in effect. When it arrives in Washington in 1949, buses still carry signs "reserved for people of color": this separation will be legally abolished in 1964 with the law on civil rights.

From his new office in New York, Toni Morrison moves heaven and earth to find witnesses of the civil revolution that is agitating the United States. 1967 will be the official year of the end of segregation, the beginning of the 70s will be that of the entry of black literature on the American book market.

Toni Morrison offered the opportunity to Mohammed Ali or Angela Davis but also the Black Panther Huey Newton and the poet Henry Dumas to express themselves on paper. A subtle literary revolution that will push its instigator to take the plunge.

A militant writer

"I ended up writing books because I wanted to read. But I could not publish them since no one had written them yet. "

The Bluest Eye (1970) is the story of Pecola praying night and day to have blue eyes and who will lose faith. This first book, Toni Morrison will then take 10 years to write it starting when she is still a professor at Howard University. It was not until 1970 that Chloe Athony Wofford metamorphoses fully into Toni Morrison and reveals her true nature: that of a militant writer.

The themes that are discussed - racism, incest, abuse - will detest the forbidden book in many schools and public libraries. The Bluest Eye will be hated by both blacks and whites. "To romance the daily life of an African-American family in the grip of the reality of white supremacy and the internal violence of the black community risked emulating them. "

An open letter - published in the New York Times in 1988 - signed by the hands of 48 African-American writers will finally point to the immense work of Toni Morrison that literary academies will no longer be able to ignore. The Bluest Eye (1970), Sula (1973), The Song of Solomon (1977), Tar Baby (1981) were recognized by critics after Beloved (1987) caught the attention of the Pulitzer Prize jury.

Five years later, the child of Ohio receiving the first Nobel Prize awarded to an African-American author - installs his work to the world's pantheon of literature.

In all, Toni Morrison leaves a bibliography of 11 novels written between 1970 and 2015 but also essays, children's books, two plays and even an opera libretto. The author has explored the entire history of black Americans since their enslavement until their emancipation in the current American society in an irreplaceable style, always fleeing simplism and Manichaeism.

Délivrances, his latest novel, which unfolds nowadays, is tinged with touches of hope.

AFTER THE TWO SHOOTING OF THIS WEEKEND DONALD TRUMP DENOUNCES THE WHITE SUPREMACIST

In his speech, the American president adopted from the White House on Monday a sharp and unpublished tone. After a weekend where two men poured bereavement into the United States by firing on the crowd in El Paso, Texas, and in Dayton, Ohio, the US president spoke from the White House .

Recalling that the Texas terrorist was motivated by racist resentment, he said:

"Our nation must unite to condemn racism, sectarianism and white supremacism. Hate has no place in the United States, hatred devours the soul.

"Since Columbine, our nation has watched with horror hundreds of shootings string together and we can not feel helpless. We must honor the memory of the victims by acting as one people. We need to find bipartisan solutions to make the United States safer, "he said.

He also described the tragedies of recent days as "crimes against humanity" . He demanded the death penalty, and as soon as possible, for the perpetrators of such massacres:

"I also order the Ministry of Justice to propose a law guaranteeing that those who commit hate crimes and mass killings are punishable by the death penalty and that the death penalty is implemented quickly, decisively and without delay. years of unnecessary delay, "said President Donald Trump.

Earlier on Twitter, he spoke of his desire to see the political class better regulate the sale of firearms, notably by attributing responsibility for recurring bloodbaths in his country to "disturbed spirits", possibly poisoned by "internet" or even video games :

"We must stop glorifying violence, especially with horrendous and sinister video games."

Former US President Barack Obama has called for rejection of rhetoric likely to encourage shootings such as those that caused the deaths of 32 people in Texas and Ohio this weekend.

"We must firmly reject speeches by any of our leaders, fueling a climate of fear and hatred or normalizing racist sentiments," he wrote on Twitter.

THE EXCENTRIC RIHANNA WITH CARNIVAL

FROM BARBADOS

Always as flamboyant as usual, the singer made a remarkable appearance in a skinny dress with feathers and a pair of shiny glasses. Rihanna described as " extraordinary ambassador and plenipotentiary" by the government, offered a walkabout before enjoying the party.

She had used us to the quirky outfits of designer Lauren Austin for this festive moment, but this time she offered the services of the young designer David Laport.

Rihanna's gorgeous outfit is a sweet pink feather mini-dress from the designer's Spring / Summer 2019 collection, Sculptural Flowers, presented in Amsterdam in September. Makeup with a green eyeshadow that brings out her eyes and wearing a few buns "macaroons" she appeared among groups of masquerades.

"Rihanna has a deep love for this country, which is reflected in her philanthropy, particularly in the areas of health and education. She also shows her patriotism in the way she gives back to her country and continues to cherish the island that remains her home "tweeted in 2018 Barbados Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley.

PARISIAN RIHANNA FOR EVER ?

It is true that his round trip between London, Los Angeles and Paris could end up boring and wasting energy.

Nothing suprising !!

Did not the ambassador of Barbados already choose the French capital for her first luxury collection with the French group LVMH?

It was in the Marais that she opened a pop-up store in the spring.

Becoming the most successful singer in the world in front of Celine Dion and Madonna !!!

And it is in the XVI ° near the town hall that she would have found the apartment of her dreams to put down her suitcases, according to the magazine Public.

Since July 15, Rihanna has been designing her new interior using Linda Pinto, a designer specializing in luxury goods.

She will not come alone to Paris, she should share his apartment with his darling, the Saudi businessman Hassan Jamel she has been attending for two years.

But the two lovebirds, both in the business world in London, will continue to go back and forth between London and Paris.

EBOLA IN THE DRC A GLOBAL HEALTH EMERGENCY

The epicenters have indeed moved from North Kivu to Ituri to multiply on several fronts. Until then, Goma, the capital of North Kivu in eastern DRC, had been spared Ebola but four cases were recently diagnosed in Goma. The haemorrhagic fever killed 1,737 people in one year in eastern DRC and the cumulative number of cases is 2,578, of which 2,484 are confirmed and 94 are probable, according to the bulletin of the Ministry of the Interior dated Sunday, July 21, 2019.

Global health emergency

"It is time for the world to take note of the situation and redouble efforts," said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO). The United Nations (UN) agency, which coordinates the Riposte, the coordination structure of the fight against Ebola, in support of the Congolese authorities, ended up decree, July 17, the state of health emergency world.

But the activities of the structure in charge of the fight against the epidemic face two major challenges: the attacks of armed groups and the mistrust of part of the population fueled by the lack of resources implemented.

"The most important challenge is to avoid any interruption of the Riposte by attacks by armed groups," insists David Gressly, UN coordinator for emergency response to Ebola.

The mistrust of the population

Added to this is the mistrust of some of the people who perceive the Riposte as an instrument of contested political power in Kinshasa.

At the outbreak of the epidemic, the teams sent by the Congolese Ministry of Health and the WHO have in fact preferred local elected officials to community structures and the political elite to customary chiefdoms, often more influential. A strategy that turned out to be a big mistake.

"The Riposte (...) gave the impression of being politicized," said Rachel Sweet, a researcher at Harvard University, which has been a major obstacle and has favored instrumentalizations by local politicians, the spread rumors and incitement to violence. "

Disagreements about health policy were also added. A second "experimental" vaccine produced by a Belgian laboratory would have been used, according to the retired health minister, Dr Oly Ilunga. For now, only the vaccine, also experimental, Merck US laboratory is used.

In addition, the lack of vaccines and opaque management of dose reserves by WHO have been denounced.

A new care strategy adopted by the new president

To remedy the lack of effectiveness of the fight against Ebola led by the Ministry of Health, the new president, Felix Tshisekedi, has adopted a new strategy by entrusting the management of the Riposte to a committee of experts led by Professor Jean -Jacques Muyembe Tamfum, who co-discovered the Ebola virus in 1976. This renowned scientist aims to overcome this epidemic in "three to four months".

Ebola haemorrhagic fever is a concern in Africa in the Great Lakes. Identified in 1976 in the DRC, it appeared in December 2013 in southern Guinea and marked the beginning of a deadly epidemic, with some 11,000 deaths in March 2015 also affecting Liberia and Sierra Leone.

The World Bank, aware of the "health emergency" has just announced the award of 300 million dollars (271 million euros) for this new phase of fight against Ebola.

BIG SCANDAL AROUND TOXIC ASHES

OF THE CATHEDRALE NOTRE DAME DE PARIS

In a press release dated April 27, 2019, the Prefecture of Police of Paris and the ARS (Regional Health Agency of the Ile de France) had invited the residents of the Cathedral to carry out a meticulous household of their home or their premises, using wet wipes, to remove any dust likely to contain dust containing a high lead content from the combustion residues of the smoked frame of the Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral.

However, in this note, the two administrations indicated that "no poisoning was reported in the days following the fire".

We had wanted to believe it ... notwithstanding the fact that, at the same time, pregnant women and children were asked to dose their lead levels?

What everyone had learned simultaneously was General Gorgerin, a devout Catholic, cultivated but also politically savvy, whom Emmanuel Macron had appointed on April 27 to oversee the operations of reconstruction "of the Cathedral.

Since radio silence!

Until our colleague Médiapart makes last Thursday, July 4, disturbing revelations on the subject.

The only concern of the government was to vote the bill on our Lady of Paris which provides for the creation of a Public Establishment and derogations to the rules of urban planning and environmental protection.

On the construction site, the prospects are worrying: companies that do not want to be the scapegoat for the event and its consequences; but also all stakeholders according to which, the dangers to health and the environment may increase due to the opacity that has developed.

As a result, some protagonists began to show their embarrassment at the example of the Prefecture of Police, some of whose premises were affected by lead pollution, or the bottle-feeding room or "Thousand Paws" of the nursery of the said prefecture. had to be closed for emergency decontamination. Functional apartments have also been decontaminated.

Safety checks on the construction site revealed that workers were working on site with bare hands, without gloves, handling rubble in protection, without a mask. Decontamination showers verified by the Labor Inspectorate do not work. The workers go home with the lead dust?

Sources close to the site even indicate that Franck Riester, the Minister (former LR / Macron-compatible) would not be dissatisfied that workers walk on the site without protections, thus not arousing any fear or residents or tourists.

With the fire of Notre Dame de Paris which caused the melting then the evaporation of some 500 tons of lead, the file which had at the beginning already triggered a scandal and doubts now takes the appearance of a scandal Sanitary, in-situ, near the building but also in the capital intra and extra muros, the cloud of lead dust having not as Chernobyl respected borders.

The malaise is even giving rise to the vocations of investigators whether it is on the side of those who plan to launch the American "class actions" to obtain compensation or pensions or on the part of those who have never believed in the accidental thesis of the fire.

They rely on the fact that the "guilty" have enemies from everywhere who will not miss the opportunity to deprive themselves of delivering sensitive information to put a spoke in the wheels of the state, owner of the monument.

It will be recalled that lead poisoning by ingestion or inhalation that causes serious damage to the central nervous system is called lead poisoning. And so, the saturnism, taken from the name of Saturn, (the disturbing Roman God) which would have caused the fall of the Roman Empire, could at the beginning of XXI century cause the fall of Jupiter / Saturn.

THE CASHMERE A CRUCIAL CHALLENGE BETWEEN MUSLIM PAKISTAN AND HINDUISIAN INDIA

The autonomy of Kashmir since Independence.

After the departure of the British in 1947, the former colony was divided into two major entities: India, Hindu majority, and Pakistan, Muslim while the Hindu Maharajah of Kashmir, made the choice of the independence of this princely state populated in majority of Moslems.

But an armed conflict broke out between the two major countries of the India / Pakistan subcontinent for control of the territory. At the end of the war of 1947, a dividing line crosses Kashmir: to the south-east, Jammu and Kashmir - two-thirds of the territory - goes under Indian trusteeship, to the northwest, Azad Kashmir is integrated in Pakistan.

Since then, tensions between the two regional powers, both possessing nuclear weapons, have given rise to two open wars in 1965 and 1971.

For Islamabad, it is a matter of linking this Muslim-majority province to a Muslim state. According to the Indian speech, Kashmir with a Muslim majority has its place in its multicultural and multiethnic model.

Since the tensions are only exacerbated between the two big neighbors so that at the end of the 1980s a separatist insurrection kicks Indian Kashmir. New Delhi, which accuses Pakistan of supporting the rebels, then deploys half a million soldiers in this territory of 12.5 million inhabitants with Srinagar as its capital.

The Indian mode of government in Jammu and Kashmir.

But a Kashmiri and Muslim civil society has been built in the polls and the desire for independence or self-determination of this region with regard to India is latent. As witnessed last April, the participation rate ridiculously low (14%) in the last Indian legislative elections.

Moreover, within the Indian federal state, Jammu and Kashmir, is not an entity administered like the others by New Delhi. It is the only state in the country to have its own constitution, negotiated status in the time of Jawaharlal Nehru, the first leader of independent India, in exchange for rallying the territory to the new Indian nation.

The special status of the Kashmir region thus provides the local assembly with its own competences, with New Delhi retaining the initiative only in Defense, Foreign Affairs and Communications.

A certain autonomy thus prevailed in the State, guaranteed by the Indian constitution, leaving to the local government the management of the regional affairs. Moreover, it was impossible for a Kashmiri national to buy a house, to register on the electoral lists or to work in the administration.

The revocation of article 370 of the constitution, which inscribed in marble this particularism, is therefore a major political shift. Jammu and Kashmir should become a territory of the Union, under the direct control of New Delhi.

A major political shift supported by the nationalism of the Indian People's Party

By revoking the status of Indian Kashmir's autonomy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Minister of the Interior and Right Arm, Amit Shah, intend to sow the exacerbated Indian nationalism of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP Indian People's Party), which has won the election in May. The BJP stands as the great defender of the unity of Hinduism against an Islam perceived as more and more threatening.

The unity of Hinduism against Islam perceived as increasingly threatening.

Pakistan, which has also claimed Jammu and Kashmir since partitioning with India in 1947, after British colonization, called the decision "illegal."

This measure is expected to exacerbate bloody unrest in Indian-controlled Kashmir, which has already claimed the lives of more than 70,000 people, mostly civilians, since 1989. It is also expected to bolster animosity with Pakistan, which, like India, has of the nuclear weapon and claims the other half of Kashmir.

In anticipation of possible fighting, the Indian authorities had deployed over the last 10 days over 80,000 additional paramilitaries in this area already highly militarized. They also cut off telecommunications, banned public gatherings, and arrested three top politicians in Indian Kashmir to avoid "disturbing the peace." In February, an attack on Indian paramilitary troops left 40 dead and led to Indian air strikes inside Pakistan.

Pakistan wants to bring the issue of Kashmir to international forums in the wake of India's revocation of the constitutional autonomy of the part of Kashmir it controls and which Islamabad claims.

While Kashmir remains cut off from the world on Tuesday, and it is impossible to know the reaction of the population, the international community would do well to address this hot issue.

THE GAFA MASTERS OF THE GAME FACING FRANCE

THE AMAZON RESPONSE AGAINST THE GAFA TAX

And now it's Amazon taking off!

America has always reacted with one voice. Republicans and Democrats are united against a measure of "racketeering" on the part of France, this is what we can hear from all sides in the ruling class and politics in the US!

Robert Lighthizer the US representative for trade, announced Wednesday, July 10, 2019, the opening of an investigation against France in retaliation for the so-called GAFA tax (for Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon), which must take 3% revenues generated in France by certain operators offering digital services.

The tax concocted by Bruno Le Maire and taxed "stupidity of Macron" by Donald Trump had been voted mid-July by France, making on this subject cavalier alone.

A statement from Robert Lighthizer's office had stated that:

"The structure of the new tax as the statements of officials [French policies] suggest that France, with this tax, unfairly target some US technology companies"

Since France did not intend to put an end to this "smoking GAFA tax", Amazon has just announced this Thursday, August 2nd the parade to support the weight of this tax of 3% on its turnover. How? By passing it, purely and simply, on some of its customers, those who go through the platform of Amazon to sell their products. But in France, it is not less than 10,000 SMEs and TPE who use Amazon to sell their products, to reach a new clientele at the time of the digital revolution and increase their turnover.

Amazon has justified its decision: "This tax directly targeting the services of the marketplace that we make available to companies with which we work, we have no choice but to pass it on to them," defended the group. American.

"Since we operate in the highly competitive and low-margin retail sector and invest heavily in the creation of tools and services for our customers and vendor partners, we are not able to 'absorb an additional tax based on turnover and not on profits,' explains the company.

And indirectly, it is the French, ultimately, who should end up taking the tax Gafa! "Unfortunately, we expect many of these companies to be forced to pass on this tax to consumers, which will lead to higher prices for their products sold online."

Hooray !!! "One more tax" for the French

Many experts had unsuccessfully alerted the government of this possible perverse effect. "The theory of economic impact will certainly apply. This means that the giants of the Net will be able to pass on the cost of the tax directly or indirectly to consumers, "explained economist Nicolas Marques to a colleague.

It's decided thing for Amazon. The other digital giants could soon follow suit.

The GAFA tax in the French way, this desperate maneuver to bring in revenue in the coffers of a country (400 million for 2019) does not seem to take into account the fact that too much taxation kills the taxation and that saving measures must be part of the reflections that the French state must impose !!!

THE EXPLOIT OF FRANKY ZAPATA ON HIS FLYBOARD FOR A CROSSING OF THE HANDLE

The Frenchman has traveled 35 kilometers of strait on his "Flyboard" with five mini-turbojet allowing him to fly up to 190 kilometers per hour, with a range of about ten minutes.

The jet ski champion took off at 8:15 am near the beach of Sangatte (Pas-de-Calais) to reach St Margaret's Bay English side in the space of about twenty minutes.

He flew over the sea about 15 meters high and made a halt halfway on a boat, to refuel in kerosene.

During the 14th of July military parade on the Champs-Elysées Franky Zapata had already given a demonstration, in front of Emmanuel Macron:

he had stolen a rifle in his hands, several tens of meters above the ground, on his flyboard.

The French army invested in this device 1.3 million euros of subsidy.

"It can be used to evacuate a casualty, what is called a medical evacuation, it can serve as a logistics platform to carry ammunition," says the director of the Defense Innovation Agency, Emmanuel Chiva.

The French special forces see in this flying platform the "potential for employment in special operations in urban areas".

In the United Kingdom, a former reservist, Richard Browning, also invented his own flying machine equipped with five integrated reactors. A battle of the airs which is only beginning.

DEUX FUSILLADES MEURTRIERES AUX ETATS-UNIS

C'est la 250e tuerie de masse aux Etats-Unis depuis le début de l'année. Et l'une des plus meurtrières de ces 25 dernières années. Une fusillade a éclaté samedi 3 août dans le complexe commercial Cielo Vista, à El Paso, au Texas. 20 personnes ont été tuées et au moins 26 autres blessées.

Le tireur présumé a été arrêté et placé en garde à vue. Robert Gomez, porte-parole de la police d'El Paso, a déclaré lors d'un point presse qu'« une seule personne avait été placée en garde à vue » après s'être rendue.

Sur une capture d'écran de caméra de surveillance, mise en ligne par la chaîne locale KTSM, on la voit entrer dans l'hypermarché armé d'un fusil, les oreilles couvertes d'un casque anti-bruit.

Il a été identifié comme étant Patrick Crusius, un jeune homme de 21 ans résident dans les environs de Dallas, à neuf heures de route. Le motif de son acte serait raciste. Le tireur présumé dénonçait une « invasion hispanique du Texas ».

Ce dimanche, une autre fusillade a fait 9 morts à Dayton dans l'Ohio. L'assaillant a été abattu.

Moins de 24 heures plus tard, une autre attaque a eu lieu ce dimanche dans le quartier animé d'Oregon, habituellement « une zone très sûre du centre-ville » de Dayton, dans l'Ohio, au nord-est des États-Unis. Neuf personnes ont perdu la vie et 16 autres ont été blessées. Le meurtrier dont les motivations ne sont pas encore connues été abattu.

Plusieurs voix se sont élevées pour réclamer une meilleure régulation du marché des armes à feu, dont la candidate à la primaire démocrate Elizabeth Warren.

Beto O'Rourke, également candidat à la primaire démocrate, originaire d'El Paso, dont il a jusqu'à récemment été le représentant au Congrès, a accusé Donald Trump d'encourager le racisme aux Etats-Unis.

« Nous assistons à une augmentation des crimes haineux chaque année depuis trois ans, sous une administration dont le président traite les Mexicains de violeurs et de criminels », a-t-il dénoncé après avoir rendu visite aux victimes dans un hôpital d'El Paso.

"Jusqu’à présent cette année, 531 personnes sont mortes lors de tueries de masse et 2066 ont été blessées."

L'ARMEE RUSSE CONTRE LES GIGANTESQUES INCENDIES DE FORET EN SIBERIE

Tous les ans, des feux se déclarent dans les vastes forêts de Sibérie. Mais cette année le Kremlin a dû faire appel aux militaires pour épauler les pompiers. Vladimir Poutine a en effet demandé mercredi 31 août à l’armée de participer à la lutte contre les feux de forêt ravageant depuis des semaines la Sibérie .

Le président russe a également remercié Donald Trump qui lui a proposé son aide. Il « a exprimé sa gratitude sincère pour cette attitude attentionnée et cette proposition d’aide et de soutien » et « a répondu que la partie russe allait profiter de cette proposition si nécessaire », indique le communiqué du Kremlin.

Le ministère de la défense a envoyé dix avions et de dix hélicoptères bombardiers d’eau dans le territoire de Krasnoïarsk, l’une des régions les plus touchées, où près de 800 pompiers sont à pied d’œuvre

Pour le premier ministre russe, Dmitri Medvedev, les incendies ne présentent pas de « danger immédiat » pour la population. « Il y a des difficultés objectives : le problème des distances, des endroits difficiles à atteindre et des facteurs propres à cette année », a-t-il déclaré à la télévision.

Les feux provoqués par des orages secs et une chaleur « anormale » de 30 degrés sont poussés actuellement par des vents forts, affectant les régions voisines, a expliqué l’Agence fédérale des forêts. L’état d’urgence a été déclenché dans cinq régions.

Douze millions d’hectares ont déjà brûlé cette année, selon l'ONG Greenpeace, pour qui ces gigantesques feux de forêt pourraient avoir un impact environnemental à long terme, y compris sur la fonte des glaces de l’Arctique.

APRES SA FUITE DE DUBAI

LE DIVORCE SUR FOND DE MARIAGE FORCE

POUR LA PRINCESSE HAYA DE JORDANIE

Sur le parvis de la Haute Cour de justice, une poignée d'opposants et de militants attendaient le souverain de Dubaï de pied ferme, brandissant des pancartes le traitant de « sponsor de la prostitution et de l'esclavage ».

C'est à la Haute Cour que s'est rendue la princesse Haya de Jordanie, sixième et plus jeune épouse de l'émir de Dubaï ce 30 juillet à Londres pour demander une mesure de protection d'un mariage forcé et la garde de ses enfants. Elle a dit craindre pour sa vie après avoir quitté son mari.

La princesse est arrivée au tribunal accompagnée de l'avocate Fiona Shackleton, qui avait défendu le prince Charles lors de son divorce avec la princesse Diana alors que son époux, Mohammed ben Rached al-Maktoum, est représenté par Helen Ward, qui avait représenté le réalisateur britannique Guy Ritchie lors de son divorce avec la chanteuse américaine Madonna. Devant le tribunal aux affaires familiales, la guerre est déclarée. La princesse Haya a introduit une demande de divorce.

Voici une affaire inédite aux Émirats arabes unis, où luxe et modernité semblent dissimuler discrimination et maltraitance des femmes jusque dans les hautes sphères de la société.

La fille du roi Hussein avait fui au mois de juin son pays et peut-être surtout son mari, le cheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. Après un passage en Allemagne, elle avait rejoint Londres avec ses deux enfants.

Avant elle deux princesses de la famille avaient tenté de refaire leur vie à l’étranger.

Cette nouvelle fuite met à mal la réputation de la famille régnante.

Déjà en 2018 la princesse Latifa, l’une des filles de l’émir, avait fui pour rejoindre les Etats-Unis en voulant échapper à son père qu’elle accusait de torture. Elle est arrêtée et ramenée de force « à la maison ». Elle disparaît alors littéralement de la sphère publique. Le sort de cette jeune femme aurait fait craindre à la princesse Haya qu’il lui arrive la même chose.

Plusieurs ONG avaient condamné l’attitude du cheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum qui aurait dissimulé la réalité de cette affaire à son épouse, lui faisant croire que Latifa avait été victime d’une escroquerie et avait dû être secourue. Mais depuis, la princesse Haya aurait appris la vérité sur le traitement réservé à Latifa et aurait décidé de prendre la fuite.

Et dix ans avant l’affaire Latifa, une autre fille de l’émir, la princesse Shamsa Al-Maktoum, âgée de 17 ans à l’époque, avait elle aussi tenté de fuir. L’adolescente avait profité du séjour en Angleterre de la famille pour s’échapper de l’emprise paternelle. Rattrapée, l’adolescente fut ramenée de force à Dubaï.

En juin 2019, Haya bint al-Hussein, épouse de l'émir Sheikh Mohammed ben Rached al-Maktoum, quitte Dubaï avec ses deux enfants, Jalia, 11 ans, et Zayed, 7 ans, emportant avec elle près de 35 millions d'euros pour « refaire sa vie ».

Le neveu de l'émir de Dubaï Marcus Essabri, 48 ans, qui vit en exil et est le premier membre de la famille à comparaître dans le procès de Londres, affirme que Latifa la jeune femme a été droguée, détenue et torturée. A une chaîne de télévision australienne, il dit espérer que ce divorce permette de faire la lumière sur le sort de ses cousines ​​Latifa et Shamsa : « La princesse Haya est la seule qui sache ce qui leur est arrivé. J’espère qu’elle profitera du procès pour parler au monde de la manière dont elles ont été traitées. Elle a l’occasion de faire quelque chose de bien pour ces pauvres femmes ».

Ce divorce assombrit une nouvelle fois l'image des Emirats arabes unis, fragilisés par l'onde de choc internationale. Celle qui se voulait l'incarnation de la femme musulmane moderne révèle une fois de plus la face sombre du patriarcat émirati .

TOWARDS A DEBATE UNDER HIGH VOLTAGE

BETWEEN AMERICAN DEMOCRATS

On Tuesday, August 31, a dividing line was indeed clear between moderate and more radical Democrats in this theater in Detroit, Michigan, one of the pivotal states won by Donald Trump in 2016 and that Democrats must win back in November 2020.

Figures on the left wing of the party Senators Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren (15% support each) seem to have somewhat disappointed voters.

Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders have defended the creation of a universal health insurance financed by public funds without any role for private insurance, the abandonment of criminal proceedings against migrants who entered the United States illegally or the cancellation student debts. A little too socialist for the other Democrats in the running.

The two candidates, the former vice president of Barack Obama and the Californian senator Kamala Harris, positioning themselves much more in the center, could consequently stand out from the candidates in the running. Still widely ahead in the polls (32%), Joe Biden is however under pressure before the Democratic debate on Wednesday night.

Why ?

Joe Biden had a poor performance against Kamala Harris last June. The latter had reminded him of his opposition to his past positions in the face of racial segregation.

If last April she was credited with only 5 to 8% of the vote, Kamala Harris is now close to 10, 5%. She had then used Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders face-to-face as an outsider, with no one betting on her.

But she has undeniable strengths in the race for the White House. A 54-year-old black woman, first person of color, but also first woman, elected to the post of San Francisco attorney, she then becomes a prosecutor in California before making her Senate entry in January 2017, becoming the second black senator in all 'History.

The one already nicknamed in 2010 by the Daily Beast in 2010 "female Barack Obama" had accused Joe Bernie of having opposed to the public policy which allowed to transport children of the black districts to schools to majority white. "There was a little girl in California who belonged to the second generation to go to her public school, by bus every day. This little girl was me, "she said, moved. There is no doubt that the racial question will come back to the heart of the debate.

The new duel between this veteran of American politics and the fourth in the polls will be scrutinized closely. The former vice president warned: "I will not be polite this time," Biden warned.

Twenty Democrat contenders have qualified for the big debate organized by CNN in Detroit on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday. For the moment, this is a four-way race dominated by Joe Biden (31% by RealClearPolitics average), ahead of Elizabeth Warren (14.8%), Bernie Sanders (14.3%) and Kamala Harris (11%).

No doubt also that the duel Biden-Harris will be followed and commented by the one who had already tweeted "The least socialist among two socialists is always socialist! Donald Trump quoted Louisiana Senator John Kennedy as saying.

LA TAXE GAFA OU LA MENACE DE DONALD TRUMP

"FACE A LA STUPIDITE DE MACRON"

L’administration Trump riposte à la « taxe GAFA » française.

L’Amérique réagit d'une seule voix. Républicains et Démocrates sont unis contre une mesure de « racket» de la part de la France, voilà ce que l'on peut entendre de toute part dans la classe dirigeante et politique aux USA !Taxation des GAFA par la France: Trump n'y va pas par quatre chemins. Il menace en effet de répliquer «  à la stupidité de Macron ». Le président américain Donald Trump s'en est directement pris à son homologue français Emmanuel Macron sur Twitter, suite à sa volonté de taxer les GAFA, ces géants américains de la tech (Google - Amazon - Facebook - Apple). Il déclare que « si quelqu'un devait les taxer, ce serait leur pays d'origine, c'est-à-dire les USA ».

Sur le réseau social, Donald Trump annonce également une « action substantielle réciproque face à la stupidité de Macron », apparemment en s'en prenant aux vins français, dans une menace à peine voilée : « J'ai toujours dit que le vin américain est meilleur que le français », conclut-il dans son tweet.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump

France just put a digital tax on our great American technology companies. If anybody taxes them, it should be their home Country, the USA. We will announce a substantial reciprocal action on Macron’s foolishness shortly. I’ve always said American wine is better than French wine!

Le principal conseiller économique de la Maison Blanche, Larry Kudlow, s'est lui aussi exprimé sur la question. Il a estimé vendredi que la taxe française sur les géants du numérique (Gafa) était « une très, très grosse erreur ».« Nous ne sommes pas contents que la France soit allée de l'avant avec cette sorte d'impôt sur le numérique », a déclaré M. Kudlow.

Il a ajouté que des auditions auraient lieu en août dans le cadre de l'enquête lancée par le Représentant au Commerce (USTR) contre cette initiative française. Le président Donald Trump décidera ensuite ou non « de lancer des représailles », a indiqué M. Kudlow sur la chaîne CNBC.

La La taxe dite Gafa, acronyme désignant les géants du numérique Google, Amazon, Facebook et Apple, crée une imposition des grandes entreprises du secteur non pas sur le bénéfice, souvent consolidé dans des pays à très faible fiscalité comme l'Irlande, mais sur le chiffre d'affaires, en attendant une harmonisation des règles au niveau de l'OCDE.

Robert Lighthizer le représentant américain pour le commerce, avait déjà annoncé, mercredi 10 juillet 2019, l’ouverture d’une enquête contre la France en représailles de la taxe dite GAFA (pour Google, Apple, Facebook et Amazon), qui doit prélever 3 % des revenus générés en France par certains opérateurs offrant des services digitaux

Le Royaume -Unis avait déjà mesuré combien il serait délicat de négocier un quelconque accord de libre-échange avec les Etats-Unis de Donald Trump après le Brexit.

Emmanuel Macron président français et son ministre de l’économie et des finances, Bruno Le Maire, vont expérimenter la difficulté de s’attaquer seuls à Washington.

Paris met en avant sa souveraineté, mais  la taxe GAFA à la française semble être surtout une manœuvre désespérée de faire rentrer des recettes dans les caisses d'un pays qui ne semble pas comprendre que trop de fiscalité tue la fiscalité et que des mesures d’économie doivent faire partie des réflexions que l'Etat français doit s'imposer !!!

Le ministre Français de l’économie, Bruno Le Maire, avait réagi jeudi 11 juillet 2019 en affirmant que des pays alliés devaient régler leurs « différends autrement que par la menace » et ajouté au Sénat que « La France est un Etat souverain, elle décide souverainement de ses dispositions fiscales, et elle continuera de décider souverainement de ses décisions fiscales ».

La taxe GAFA  s'articule de la façon suivante :

Les entreprises concernées doivent réaliser 750 millions d’euros de chiffre d’affaires, dont 25 millions d’euros en France.

La taxe affecte une trentaine de compagnies, dont les GAFA, mais aussi des entreprises européennes et chinoises et une seule française, Criteo.

La loi est rétroactive et qu’elle puisse conduire à une double taxation est intolérable et contraire à tout éthique fiscale dans une démocratie qui se respecte !!

Unanimes les sénateurs dans leur ensemble (Républicains comme Démocrates) et les membres de l'administration de notre Président Donald Trump exhortent la France de revenir en arrière avec la mise en place de cette taxe faute de quoi la riposte des Etats-Unis et les rétorsions vont être terribles et feront très mal !!!

DREAMS OR  MEGALOMANIA THE FRANCE

WANTS TO PREPARE FOR THE WAR OF THE STARS

As a historical reminder in 1967, the entire international community agreed that all humankind would benefit from the conquest of space.

A great treaty signed that year that is still in force!

The latter spoke emphatically of "the use for the good of all peoples and for peaceful purposes of space".

But a radical change half a century later, space now seems to the eyes of politicians and military the fourth medium, in the military sense, after the land, sea and air.

In an objective of guiding or detecting missiles, to communicate, to make intelligence and espionage of others, armies depend largely on outer space,

Like Americans and Russians, France now intends to invest space militarily.

Current Minister of the Armed Forces, Florence Parly, presented in Lyon the new "defense space strategy", wanted by Emmanuel Macron, who had already put forward the idea about a year ago.

France will not launch into the destruction of satellites, as did China, the United States or more recently India, but will launch into a surveillance and very military objectives however.

France will not put into orbit weapons of mass destruction, blinding lasers or offensive nanosatellites, prohibited by the Treaty of 1967 and ratified by the French State,

France, however, intends to continue militarization and embark on the weaponization of space.

First objective the protection of the French satellites, ensures the ministry of the Armies.

Indeed Florence Parly had revealed that "in January the Russian spy satellite Louch-Olympe had discreetly approached the Athena-Fidus, used for telecommunications, including military, France and Italy.

In a framework of "active defense", Emmanuel Macron, wants by surveillance cameras soon embarked on Syracuse (central device for the communications of the French army) to protect and monitor the space, in order to detect approaches.

From 2023, France plans to no longer respect the 1967 treaty using blinding lasers, machine guns to break the solar panels feeding intruders, "clouds of nanosatellites watchers" deployed around the most strategic devices.

Hello the pollution of the space which is already well encumbered by so much waste in low and medium orbit and here is a beautiful example of ecology which Emmanuel Macron knows so well to speak !!

Florence Parly acknowledged that "France had fallen behind in terms of power lasers", but that it would "make up for France's gap by 2025, which will cost 700 million euros"

This expense is in addition to the 3.6 billion euros already planned for space in the military programming law for a global envelope of armies.

In comparison with the investments of the great powers: each year, the United States devotes 50 billion dollars, China 10 billion and Russia 4 billion.

Florence Parly wants more autonomy, and therefore become a "space operator", within the meaning of the 2008 law that regulates so far the extra-atmospheric activities.

The government does not exclude a legislative amendment.

The role of the National Center for Space Studies (CNES), a civil administration, will be reduced when it comes to military activities.

A large space command also needs to be created on September 1, with 220 people at the beginning, to streamline governance, and eventually the air force will become "the air force and the air force." space".

The Minister of the Armies Florence Parly wants to regulate the space activity beyond its strict perimeter, even going to give an assent for any outside activity, even private!

Florence Parly finally wants to benefit from the progress of commercial satellite imagery by buying terrestrial observation services, in addition to the means available to them (the CSO satellites of the Musis program), but also to "limit the use, so that these high-definition images that are very cheap, sometimes even free, do not end up in all hands! "

Florence Parly wants to "forbid the States purchasing French equipment to photograph certain areas, particularly the deployments of the French forces in operation"!

France forgets that space does not belong to it and NASA, companies such as "SpaceX", " Virgin Galactic", "Blue Origin", "Boeing" and many others do not care about the opinion of France , that's another reason for Donald Trump to get angry, France should be aware of it!

Evidence that is no longer in doubt, after the Gafa Tax, and now the space. If France and its leaders do not radically change their behavior, the retaliatory measures will take another dimension, yet from 1668 the famous French author Jean de la Fontaine wrote the fable "The Frog who wants to be as big as the ox" the latter should nevertheless inspire France

Space does not belong to France, it is not the master of the place either, it does not have any force or legitimate laws on the space, it does not have more right on the space than the other states of the planet, it is necessary to think that if other forms of life in the universe exist, they make fun of the rules that France would like to impose on them, the organs of other states like NASA, JAXA ..., as well that private companies like SpaceX, Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin, Boeing do not have to submit to France !!!

Donald Trump is patient but patience has its limits. Let's hope that he does not manage to say like "Rambo": "it's going to be silly" because we know that it will hurt a lot for those who want to attack America !!!!

BREXIT BORIS JOHNSON CONSIDERS NO-DEAL AS AN ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY

"The United Kingdom is better prepared for this situation than many think," said Johnson Thursday, which however wants to accelerate the pace of preparations. He asked Michael Gove, his right-hand man in government, to make "no deal" preparation his "top priority".

The arrival at 10 Downing Street Boris Johnson, leader of the campaign for the "Leave" at the time of the referendum, changes the deal.

The odds seem slim to reach a compromise in just three months around a revision of the agreement negotiated by Theresa May, and rejected three times by the British Parliament. Boris Johnson is particularly hostile to the safeguard clause providing for a continuation in the customs union, in order to maintain fluid exchanges between the two Ireland. The removal of this back-stop is a real yellow line for the other EU Member States.

But leaving the EU without a divorce agreement is no problem for Boris Johnson.

The British Parliament, however, is mostly hostile to an exit without agreement. To impose this "no deal", Boris Johnson could decide to suspend Parliament, preventing MPs from voting. Boris Johnson says he is ready to go strong.

This is what he recalled during his speech on Saturday 27 July in Manchester where he announced his priorities for the country and reaffirmed his firmness with regard to the Brexit negotiations. The British Prime Minister said Saturday, July 27, 2019 that the Brexit represented a "huge economic opportunity" , although it was treated by his predecessor Theresa May as a "hostile climate event".

"Leaving the European Union is a huge economic opportunity to do things that we have never been allowed to do for decades," said the new Prime Minister.

He also promised new investments in the regions that voted in favor of Brexit in the 2016 referendum, notably ensuring that he would intensify the negotiations on post-Brexit trade agreements and set up free ports to boost trade. 'economy.

£ 3.6 billion fund for cities

"To regain control does not only mean that Westminster will regain its sovereignty over the EU, it also means that our villages, our cities and our counties will become more autonomous," he said.

The prime minister also promised to empower local communities and strengthen telecommunications and transport infrastructure.

It has announced a fund of 3.6 billion pounds sterling (4 billion euros), the "Towns' Fund" ("Cities Fund") to support 100 cities in difficulty, "so they have transport and the improved telecommunications networks they need. "

For a resumption of negotiations Boris Johnson remains uncompromising.

"We can not do it as long as this anti-democratic backstop, which seeks to divide our country, divide the United Kingdom, remains in place. We need to remove it and then we can move forward, "he said.

Also, if all options remain possible in the coming months, including the organization of early elections and / or a second referendum on Brexit, the outcome remains unclear. Jeremy Corbyn, head of Labor, the main opposition party, wants the British to speak in a "public vote" on the Brexit or in early parliamentary elections.

Such a vote could be organized following the vote of a no-confidence motion against the government filed by Labor, which says wait for the best time to do so.

TUNISIAN PRESIDENT HONORS KEY MAN OF DEMOCRATIC TRANSITION

National funerals are scheduled this Saturday in the presence of several heads of state. Around the world, tributes are multiplying to commend the role played by this president, the first Tunisian president democratically elected by universal suffrage in 2014. The boss of the UN Antonio Guterres has praised his role "determining to lead the country and the head of European diplomacy, Federica Mogherini, lamented the loss of one of the "most competent and persevering" Tunisian leaders [...]. Berlin, Rome, Rabat and several Gulf monarchies also paid tribute to him. Algeria declared mourning for three days, as did Mauritania. Donald Trump paid tribute to Béji Caïd Essebsi's "phenomenal leadership". "President Caid Essebsi was an indefatigable defender of the Tunisian people," the US president said in a White House statement.

"A phenomenal leadership," according to Donald Trump.

Beji Caid Essebsi played a key role in the democratic transition initiated by Tunisia in 2011 after the fall of Ben Ali. The power-sharing agreement it had made between his party, Nidaa Tounes, and the Islamists in Ennahda helped to stabilize the political situation and avoid the autocratic drift seen in other countries affected by the "spring Arabic ". This bet of reconciliation with the Islamists will have avoided the country the chaos experienced by other "Arab Spring". If he saved Tunisia from the rise of extremes, Essebsi, however, was unable to deepen the democratic project dreamed of by the protagonists of the 2011 revolution. And although he reiterated that the rights of the man were one of the gains of the young democracy, the Tunisian president bore badly the criticisms coming in particular from certain media. Moreover, the dynastic drift of the presidential power, which saw him soften the ambitions of his son Hafedh, has also been controversial. The "Sheik" failed to complete his project of equal inheritance between men and women. President Béji Caïd Essebsi died a few months before the end of his term in December.

The future of Tunisia

Upon the announcement of the death of the president, the head of Parliament, Mohamed Ennaceur, 85 years, was sworn in to act in accordance with the Constitution. It provides that this interim does not exceed 90 days, ie until the end of October. Tunisia is thus preparing to undergo an acceleration of its electoral calendar, the legal term of the five-year term of Mr. Essebsi having been initially fixed in mid-November. Legislative elections, another equally sensitive deadline, are scheduled for 6 October. The electoral autumn promises to be loaded for Tunisians. The stakes of this new political cycle - the second presidential and third legislative elections since 2011 - are crucial. It is that of the rooting of democracy in this country of North Africa, both pioneer and sole survivor of the wave of the "Arab Spring" of 2011 . Many Tunisians have emphasized this rapid transition as their country is the only one of the Arab states affected by the 2011 protests to continue on the path of democratization.

However, there are still many challenges to Tunisia, such as jihadist attacks, clan fighting and economic wait-and-seeism.

The democratic transition remains fragile in this pioneer Arab spring even if, according to some analysts, the death of the president should not cause political upheaval in Tunisia.

Second film by young Israeli director Yuval Adler, "The Operative" is the adaptation of a novel by his compatriot Yifatch Reicher Atir, a former Mossad officer who became an author who wrote The English Teacher

"When I read it, explains the director, I was captivated.

His care in describing the psychological consequences of the spy's work, his extreme attention to detail and his exploration of the personal aspect of human intelligence fascinated me.

The book is based on real agents and facts, so it was heavily censored for its publication in Israel. "

The spy travels regularly to Germany to debrief Thomas, his liaison officer (Martin Freeman).

Until the day she disappears radars, after being close to Farhad (Cas Anvar), a local businessman.

Yuval Adler does not put the suspense, the film tells the story of Rachel's flashbacks, while Thomas, who left the Mossad, is questioned by his former superiors desperate to get his hands on his ex-boyfriend. protected.

It quickly became apparent that he harbored feelings other than mere professional esteem and that Rachel did not tell the whole truth about her identity.

In an ultra-realistic vein the director takes the viewer on the steps of his heroine on edge. A Kruger Diana breathtaking, violent and fragile at the same time.

MASTER GIMS FINALLY WITHOUT SUNGLASSES

The glasses are a kind of barrier.

"If I removed them, I would lose a lot," said the rapper in an interview.

Since its inception, the singer does not leave his accessory become his trademark.

"I think it would break something with my audience, that people are used to it and do not want to see me without it.

For me to do it, I would have to be offered to play in a great movie with a big role, "joked the Congolese again.

But now he decided to drop the armor:

the singer has published on his Instagram account a selfie in which he appears without his famous dark glasses.

"I have nothing else to add, thank you," wrote the star soberly on his Instagram account followed by thousands of subscribers.

Never had Gims posted a photo on his social networks without his famous sunglasses. The interpreter of "Bella" decided to make a selfie bare.

The Congolese singer took a picture wearing a striped gray suit in front of a mirror. "28/09/19," he also added, referring to the date of his concert at the Stade de France on 28 September.

On Instagram, fans were thrilled to finally discover the naked face of their artist.

"You are too beautiful", "Always as much flow for Gims" or "With or without always as much charm and class" reads in the tweets of his admirers even if some ask him "a clearer picture" for the next time.

Others quote the words of The Same in duet with Vianney where Master Gims sings:

"So I always zigzag with these dark glasses.

I hear people wondering when does the mask fall? ".

It's done now.

Will he ever go on stage without his glasses ?

VENEZUELA DIVES IN BLACK OR CRIMINAL ATTACK

The breakdown began in Caracas, but cuts took place in all 23 Venezuelan states. The capital Caracas and many parts of Venezuela were plunged into darkness at the end of the day Monday following a new blackout tied by the government to an "electromagnetic attack".

The power outage started in Caracas at 8:41 pm GMT affecting, among other things, water distribution, public transport services and telephone links.

"The first elements of the investigation in the region of Caroni (in southern Venezuela) suggest that it is an electromagnetic attack aimed at damaging the hydroelectric production system," said the Minister of Communication Jorge Rodríguez on television, promising that the national electricity system would be back in service "as soon as possible".

Later, it is the turn of President Nicolas Maduro to denounce on Twitter a "new criminal attack".

" Corruption "

"They try to hide the scale of the tragedy by rationing the whole country, but the failure is obvious: they destroyed the electrical system and have no solutions," responded on Twitter the Leader of the Opposition Juan Guaido, Speaker of the Parliament.

The latter proclaimed himself as interim president of Venezuela in January and is recognized as such by some fifty countries headed by the United States. The Venezuelan opposition generally puts the power outages on the account of "negligence" and "corruption" within the government of Nicolas Maduro.

Tense context with the United States

This breakdown occurs in a tense diplomatic context with the United States, which Caracas accused Monday of having violated its airspace with a "spy plane".

The day before, US military officials had denounced the fact that a Venezuelan fighter aircraft approached Friday very close to a US aircraft, in an "aggressive" and "dangerous" way, over the Caribbean Sea , describing the maneuver as "unprofessional".

Other "blackouts" plunged Venezuela into the dark this year, a first beginning of March and a second at the end of the same month, crippling, again, the country for a week.

The national electricity company Corpoelec has meanwhile simply indicated that a failure affects several sectors of the capital.

BORIS JOHNSON AT DOWNING STREET

Boris Johnson wins the race on Tuesday, July 23, 2019 to become the new British Prime Minister. The vote of 160,000 members of the Conservative Party ended Monday afternoon and the result was proclaimed on Tuesday by the party authorities. The 55-year-old former foreign minister defeated 52-year-old Jeremy Hunt, the current head of British diplomacy.

Boris Johnson, a fervent defender of Brexit since 2016, was given an ultra-favorite despite being a contested personality even in his own camp. According to an opinion poll published by the Conservativehome website, he would win 73% of the vote. His opponent, Jeremy Hunt, the current Minister of Foreign Affairs, had also announced in advance the outcome of the electoral contest by declaring himself ready to work with the former mayor of London.

At 55, who was once a reporter for the Daily Telegraph and also a correspondent for the American magazine The Spectator, before singing the Brexit, will succeed where Theresa May failed. The mission of the future head of government is not easy. Whether on the interior-Brexit ...- or outside-Iran, environment ...- BoJo, as we call him, will have to treat them with skill.

The Brexit crisis

While Boris Johnson announces that he is ready to do anything to conclude the Brexit on October 31, leaving it to do without agreement, the demonstration, no later than Saturday in the streets of London, of tens of thousands of British pro -Europe shows indeed that British voters are divided on the issue of Brexit. Even dominated by the Conservatives, Parliament also rejects the prospect of a "no deal". Fearing a passage in force of the future Prime Minister, the House of Commons voted on Thursday, an amendment prohibiting any exit from the Union without a vote of Parliament.

Two outgoing government heavyweights, Finance Minister Philip Hammond and Justice Minister David Gauke, disagreeing with Boris Johnson over the Brexit, have also said they would resign in case of Boris Johnson's victory because "serving in his government would include the acceptance of an exit without agreement ", which they say they are unable to join. Two statements that illustrate the tensions that may face the future tenant of 10 Downing Street.

A "wonderful trade deal" with the United States

Donald Trump has certainly sparked a "wonderful trade deal" in the UK once out of the EU. But concretely, what will happen to this promise? We know that the majority of American Democrats in the House of Representatives do not want to give a present to Trump already in campaign for his re-election. We also know that having left the European Union, the United Kingdom will be in a position of weakness to negotiate a trade agreement with Trump, an uncompromising businessman.

The crisis with Iran

Another hot issue awaits the new Prime Minister who will have to resolve the crisis with Iran caused by the arrest of a tanker flying the British flag in the Persian Gulf by the Guardians of the revolution. London's position on the Iranian nuclear issue, which until now has been stuck with that of the Europeans, could change. .. The United Kingdom could indeed, in favor of the Iranian crisis, align itself with the American policy which denounced the treaty.

The winner of the vote will be appointed leader of the Tory party and will travel Wednesday to Queen Elizabeth II, who will give him the responsibility to form the government.

RATIFICATION OF CETA OR THE CONTROVERSE AGREEMENT

Due to the protests of the opposition, the vote on the draft law of ratification of Ceta has been rejected by the deputies of the National Assembly and was the subject of a public ballot, Tuesday, July 23.

The points of tension concern in particular the health, agricultural and environmental risks.

Free Trade Agreement Between Canada and the European Union

This is a free trade agreement between Canada and the European Union. Negotiated since 2009, the text was signed in 2016 by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and European Council President Donald Tusk. The Ceta (for Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement) is applied temporarily since 2017, only on its commercial aspect. Its full implementation requires the ratification of all States.

The so-called "new generation" CETA, which is a comprehensive economic and trade agreement (CETA), thus greatly reduces tariff and non-tariff barriers, but also addresses many aspects related to the export of goods. goods and services and the creation of a stable and favorable investment framework for European and Canadian companies.

Why Canada?

Canada is a major trading partner of the EU at the 12th rank of the EU's trade relations, while the EU is Canada's second largest trading partner after the United States. The volume of goods exchanges between the two partners amounts to nearly 60 billion euros per year. The EU mainly exports machinery, transport equipment and chemicals to Canada. Commercial services accounted for almost 26 billion euros (in 2012), mainly transport, travel and insurance services.

In addition, Canada and the EU have a close investment relationship, with Canada being the fourth largest foreign investor in the EU with more than 142 billion euros (in 2012) while the EU is the second largest investor in Canada with nearly 260 billion euros (in 2012).

Faced with a growing protectionism?

"In these times of uncertainty, with increasing protectionism around the world, Ceta underlines our strong commitment to sustainable trade," said EU Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmström after the vote on the agreement to the European Parliament. "Nothing in this agreement" will affect "the safety of the food we eat or the products we buy, nor will it lead to the privatization of public services," she argued.

The main objective is to lower trade barriers. Specifically, tariffs will be removed on 98% of goods traded. The agreement also plans to expand certain services to competition and to strengthen regulatory cooperation between the two zones. Another important point is the recognition by Canada of 145 protected geographical indications (PDIs), 42 of which are French. Mostly cheeses.

CETA critics

Since its implementation, Ceta has focused criticism. Yesterday, Nicolas Hulot did not he asked the deputies not to ratify an agreement which would reinforce "one of the worst students of the G20" in environmental matter?

Doubts about a "lowering of sanitary standards" were also expressed. Unlike the European Union, Canada allows the breeding of beef fed with antibiotics or animal meal.

In early July, a few days before the vote, the debate crystallized on animal meal, banned in Europe after they caused the crisis of "mad cow" or bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

A hole in the legislation actually allows Canadian ranchers to feed their oxen with flours made from what remains of their fellow slaughtered animals - the blood, the hair, the fat - and at the slaughterhouses. send to the European soil without the consumer being informed. The Canadian authorities also acknowledged on July 19 to Agra Presse that, "despite a prohibition in principle of ruminant feed based on ruminant flours, Canadian legislation allows the use of certain proteins, such as blood meal and gelatin ".

Finally, the arbitration tribunals provided for in the agreement remain highly controversial. These allow a private company to attack a state, if it feels aggrieved by regulations too vigorous.

For the opponents of Ceta this agreement is anti-democratic, too favorable to the multinationals, dangerous for the European agriculture and light on the environment. For now, the government has tried to provide a guarantee by negotiating a "climate veto".

Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne, Secretary of State to the Minister of Europe, welcomes a "6.5% increase in French exports" in Canada, between 2017 and 2018. Peaks of 10% have been achieved, especially for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. In contrast, Canada's exports to the EU fell by 3% and as much as 9% to France.

In a study, the Center for Prospective Studies and International Information relativizes the economic impact of Ceta. It calculates the variations due to the treaty at 0.5% for most sectors in France. The other effects, especially on greenhouse gas emissions, are still unclear.

THE AMERICAN SPACE AMBITION

FROM THE MOON TO MARS

"The Moon is our test bed for our future mission to Mars. That's why we're going to the moon, "said NASA boss Jim Bridenstine.

Indeed, the expeditions mounted by NASA on the Moon serve both to advance technological and scientific advances that prepare an expedition to Mars.

Scientific progress ... still today

The chip and embedded system are an example. The rocket thus participates as much as it benefits from a development of computer science, which will have to answer ever more technical software, but also a huge dose of sensors to record everything and study during the test phases. The Apollo computer is the world's first integrated circuit (an electronic chip) and the first to have an embedded system.

Beyond the direct effects, the lunar conquest has had indirect benefits for the world of businesses and sciences: project management, crisis, planning, interdisciplinary cohabitation ... Methods still used fifty years later.

But scientific progress does not stop at this step on the Moon. A myriad of lunar rocks were reported or 382 kilos in all for all the Apollo missions that helped understand the Earth-Moon system.

"Today, the most popular theory is that our satellite was formed by an impact with a planet the size of Mars that would have hit the prototerre. This idea began with the return of the lunar samples, when we saw that the materials extracted there looked surprisingly like terrestrial materials. "Develops Athena Coustenis.

Rich in technological teachings as scientists, the Moon also serves as a springboard for walking on Mars.

The moon a stepping stone for Mars

Although no program has been officially approved, NASA's boss recalls that the agency "is working on developing a detailed plan on how to conduct a mission to Mars using the technologies that [she is going to ] to prove on the Moon ". Regarding the report of the Science and Technology Policy Institute, Bridenstine wants to believe that there are "assumptions in this relationship that everyone may not agree with" and that there are "alternatives that allow a mission to Mars in 2033, "he said.

With its program Artemis, NASA discount the return of astronauts on the Moon in 2024. An ambitious goal within five years and a lunar experience that should also serve to target Mars. For the administrator of the US space agency, it is thus necessary to use the Moon as a "test bed" in the perspective of Mars.

A first mission inhabited towards the red planet could be carried out in 2033.

A direct mission to Mars can not take place as many problems are still unresolved. The NASA boss also pointed out that a Gateway space station in lunar orbit allowed access to more parts of the solar system.

Jim Bridenstine is optimistic, setting a new goal for 2033 to send a mission to the Red Planet.

Although some experts doubt that NASA will be able to guarantee a landing of astronauts on the Moon in five years as President Trump wants, the Artemis mission aiming for a return to the Moon in 2024 is on track. And 2033 is the goal of NASA to send men to Mars.

"The destiny of humanity is to walk on another planet and we can do it ..." said Buzz Aldrin, pleading for manned missions to Mars.

"The colonization of the solar system is a way to establish another place of survival for the human race", which will become necessary one day according to him.

SURGING ZELENSKY TO UKRAINIAN LEGISLATIVES

If two parties proved however indispensable are preselected to play the reinforcing forces in the presidential majority:

Batkivshchina, the formation of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko (7.4% of the vote), or Holos, the party created by the rockstar Sviatoslav Vakarchuk, another quadra, two months ago.

Mr Zelensky has already proposed negotiations to Mr Vakarchuk to form a coalition that will appoint the government.

Elected triumphantly in the presidency of the country in April, the former humorist concluded no less brilliantly the act II of his conquest of power.

He is about to take control of Parliament, an indispensable step in the profound transformation of the country he has promised to voters.

After this plebiscite the Ukrainian president made a sober statement.

"It's not just a signal of trust, it's also a huge responsibility for me and my team," Zelensky said, saying, "I'm sure it can help end the war. »

CASE FRANCOIS DE RUGY OR THE TV SERIE OF THE SUMMER OF EMMANUEL MACRON

Wednesday morning, July 10, 2019, Mediapart revealed that François de Rugy, then president of the National Assembly, organized lavish private dinners at the expense of the taxpayer. With his wife, Séverine Servat de Rugy, he would have received several of their friends under the paneling of the hotel Lassay for evenings where the grands crus (500 euros the bottle) flowed and lobsters covered the tables.

François François de Rugy assumes and justifies himself. On the same day, Wednesday evening, another announcement falls. The journalist Fabrice Arfi of Mediapart reveals indeed in the wake that the minister's director of cabinet, Nicole Klein, still occupies a social housing in the XIVth district since 2001, while she did not work in Paris between 2006 and 2018 .

A situation that "deprived of housing one of the approximately 200,000 applicants for social housing in Paris, who wait for many years before obtaining an apartment," says Mediapart. The reaction of his boss François de Rugy was not long in waiting: she was dismissed without further trial, Thursday, July 11.

And a new revelation would tarnish the reputation of the minister. Thursday the 13th of July in the morning the De Rugy couple have made realize, according to Mediapart, more than 63 000 euros of work, always paid by the taxpayer, in their private apartments of the ministry. Of course the number 2 of the government was again quickly justified.

But wanting to extinguish the fire as soon as possible, two investigations were ordered by the government.

Emmanuel Macron still remembers the so-called "Benalla" case which began in July 2018 to be fueled until the spring of 2019. Each day brought its share of twists, as well in the columns of the World as in the other daily titles and weekly, which, as in the nineteenth century to Eugene Sue with The Mysteries of Paris published in the Journal des débats, kept the French in suspense.

Two open investigations that would clear François de Rugy

One is led by the services of the National Assembly and deals with the allegedly private dinners he organized at the Hotel de Lassay when he was its president. The other is headed by the General Secretariat of the Government (SGG) and concerns the work carried out in its former official residence of the Hotel de Roquelaure (VII), for an amount of 63,000 euros.

The result of these instructions should be unveiled Tuesday morning.

Part of the result of the investigations, however, transpired in the press that the famous dinners would all be "professional", thus clearing the former minister.

And what about the result of the inquiry organized by the Prime Minister's services on his job accommodation? He would be of the same ilk. The total bill of 63,000 euros is explained by the specificities of the building built in the eighteenth century and requiring specialized providers. These would be the conclusions of the inspection launched by Matignon and entrusted to the general secretariat of the government. The full report will be known on Tuesday.

Investigations by government-related services in place

"A joke," reacted on Twitter, Fabrice Arfi. "If the National Assembly has investigated De Rugy as she investigated Benalla, we know what to do," quipped the journalist Mediapart.

Especially when one dwells on the very nature of these two surveys, carried out by services related little or more to the power in place ...

"Besides, there is also the desire not to overwhelm him anymore. He has already paid a high price, "said a ministerial adviser according to Franceinfo. Especially since another file, much more sensitive, could potentially undermine Rugy: that of the payment in 2013 and 2014 of a portion of its contributions to EELV with its compensation representation fee (IRFM).

The beginning of a second "murderous summer" for Emmanuel Macron or late game ?

DONALD TRUMP INTERVENTS FOR AMERICAN RAPPER ASAP ROCKY.

Arrest of the American rapper in Sweden

Arrested and jailed, American rapper ASAP Rocky, suspected of assault after a brawl in Sweden, will remain in detention until July 25, 2019, the time for the prosecution to complete the investigation and ask for his possible removal for violence.

A $ AP Rocky, 30, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, was taken into custody in Stockholm on July 3, after a fight, along with three other people, after a fight on June 30 , in the streets of the Swedish capital.

On July 5, a court ordered his imprisonment on the ground that there was "a risk of flight" abroad. The prosecution had until July 19 to conduct its investigations and ask for its referral to a court, for a trial likely to be held in August.

But the prosecutor however asked Friday for a period of investigation and the extension of his pre-trial detention until Thursday, July 25. As expected, the judge in charge of the case followed the requisitions and decided that ASAP Rocky would stay in his cell at the Stockholm prison.

A case that becomes political with the intervention of Donald Trump

His lawyer, Slobodan Jovicic, said he was "disappointed" by the decision, denouncing a "disproportionate" incarceration on the facts.

Since his arrest, friends and fans of the New York artist, including Kim Kardashian and Justin Bieber, mobilize on social networks to demand his release and denounce a "relentless" Swedish justice.

A petition has even been launched to demand his release. More than 600,000 people signed a petition on the internet #JusticeForRocky calling for his release. Several US Congressmen urged Sweden to release the musician and a former US ambassador to Stockholm, Mark Brzezinski, said he had contacted the Swedish Foreign Ministry and the Royal House, denouncing an "unfairness to racial ".

President Donald Trump himself asked "his team to work for his release." Kim Kardashian, the reality star turned lawyer, with the help of her husband Kanye West, asked Donald Trump for help. The President of the United States spoke on this subject on July 19, from the White House:

"We will make phone calls, we will talk to them. We have already started. Many members of the American black community called me, many friends of mine, telling me that I could help. A little later, Donald Trump confirmed that he had been in contact with Kanye West. "I just talked to Kanye West about the incarceration of ASAP Rocky. I will call the Swedish Prime Minister [Stefan Löfven, ed] to see if he can help me. Many are those who write to see if he can help me. There are many who would like to settle this case quickly, "he wrote on Twitter.

The government told him that justice was totally independent of the executive in the Scandinavian country. "We can not, as ministers, intervene in the course of justice," said the head of diplomacy Margot Wallström.

All efforts have therefore been in vain.

ASAP Rocky's defense argues that he only reacted in self-defense to the provocations of a small group of people who harassed him and followed him and his entourage.

On an amateur video first broadcast by TMZ, the artist puts a young man on the ground and then takes several shots. In other videos, ASAP Rocky repeatedly asks two young men to stop following him. One of the men also beat a member of the rapper's entourage and a parallel investigation was opened against him.

Rapper and model

Originally from New York, ASAP Rocky became known in 2011 with the release of a compilation called Live. Love. ASAP. In 2013, he goes on with his first album "Long. Live. ASAP ".

ASAP Rocky, stylized ASAP Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, born October 3, 1988 in Harlem, New York. He is an American rapper. He is one of the members of the New York hip-hop collective A $ AP Mob from where he holds his nickname. He released his first mixtape, Live Love ASAP, in 2011. The success of this one allows him to sign with Sony Music Entertainment labels, RCA Records and Polo Grounds Music. His first album Long. Live. ASAP, released in 2013, debuts at the top of the Billboard 200. His second album, At.Long.Last. ASAP is released on May 26, 2015. It released its third solo album, Testing, on May 25, 2018.

In parallel the rapper continues a modeling career started in 2010. In 2019, he posts on Instagram clichés in which he wears the latest creations of the creator Raf Simons in collaboration with the Australian brand Templa. Always the same year, ASAP Rocky unveils the commercials of his collaboration with the brand Calvin Klein which he is the face of the campaign # MyCalvins33.

ESCAPE THE MAGIC OF FOUR ISLANDS

AWAY FROM THE WORLD

Here are four ideas of wonderful and rich places of history that are still relatively secretive. Because a trip in time is also awfully exotic, here are four suggestions to the north (oh no, everyone does not like the heat) and two to the south ...

Orkney, north of Scotland

Historical interest: Tumuli and cairns, Mesolithic remains, Neolithic, Picts and Viking ... this archipelago is a reservoir of happiness for history buffs.

Because yes, the past of this region, inhabited since about 8500 BC, is like the sea, as exciting as it is agitated! Among the unmissable places, the "Neolithic Heart of Orkney", or Ness of Brodgar, a set of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

On the tourist level; A harsh summer climate for the chilly with summer temperatures rarely rising above 12 °. Suffice to say that for the beach ... that said, after visiting the very charming Kirkwall and Stromness (the main cities), nature lovers can enjoy themselves: in addition to beautiful landscapes, flora and fauna They are incredible. On the menu, watching marine animals (seals, whales, dolphins, etc.), but also about 300 different species of birds. Also note that we can see regularly aurora borealis ...

Eat: Beef or lamb meat, fish and seafood, berries, whiskey - all native: locavores gourmets will love!

Accommodation: Many hotels, B & B or guesthouses or hostels available at all prices, including the highly recommended Papa Westray Hostel, on Papa Westray islet.

In practice: Regular connections by plane between Edinburgh, Glasgow or Aberdeen and Kirkwall; or by ferry, between Aberdeen and Kirkwall. On the spot, many buses or hirings of car, bicycle ...

The Faroe Islands, north of Norway, between Scotland and Iceland

Historical interest: It starts with a "Vi" and it ends with a "king" ...

Because if traces of human life recently discovered show that there were "some inhabitants between the fourth and sixth century," the specialists do not know for the moment as much as to think: who were these people?

Were they fishermen, "settlers" or monks fleeing these "pagan Scandinavians"?

One fact is certain: as early as the 9th century, Vikings settled on these confetti. In Kirkjubøur, for example, you can see the fascinating Roykstovan farm-museum, dating back to the year 900 and still inhabited today.

Or Kvivik, a village in the center of which are the remains of a village of the tenth century.

And on the tourist level? With average annual temperatures ranging between 3 ° and 10 °, the 18 main islands of the Feroé archipelago are certainly not seaside destinations. In contrast, hikers will be thrilled. As naturophiles and, above all, lovers of ornithology; As for the bravest, they can try climbing or diving.

Eating out: Better to love lamb (in all its forms!), Fish, seafood, potatoes, fermented dishes, puffin (a great local specialty), rhubarb and beer essential of the Faroese menu. The more adventurous can also test whale fat or dried cod skin.

Accommodation: Hotels, B & B, campsites or "hostels". the offer is not huge and often rather expensive

In practice: Several routes available via Edinburgh, Copenhagen, Bergen or Reykjavik. Similarly, you can go by ferry from Denmark (count a day and a half of travel!). On site, there are buses or rental cars.

Kea, the most Nordic (and wild) of the Cyclades

Historical interest: Very close to Athens (the ferry takes about an hour to cover the thirty kilometers that separate Korissia port from the mainland), the island, which was inhabited since the Neolithic, is obviously strongly marked by Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations - as evidenced by many remains that can be seen in situ or at the Archaeological Museum of Ioulida (to visit during the hot weather!).

Among the most inescapable: the Lion emblem of Tsia (another name of Kea) - a cat 6 m long and 3 m high carved on the cliff in the 6th century BC. JC and whose enigmatic smile intrigues many historians q! In the same way, one will not miss the ruins of the ancient city of Karthaia - a breathtaking archeological site where the temples of Athena and Apollo Pythios (5th century BC), fortifications (6th-4th centuries BC) meet. And a theater (2nd century BC).

And on the tourist level? With its Mediterranean climate, the mountainous Kea is beautiful in any season. In summer, the heat is intense. Better to leave at dawn or at the end of the afternoon and, during the day, enjoy the pleasures of the sea and beaches ... not all easy to access!

A NEW MARRIAGE IN THE ROYAL BRITISH FAMILY

We all know the tumultuous marriage of this couple of the royal family. Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew married in 1986. They have two daughters, 29-year-old Princess Eugenie and 30-year-old Princess Béatrice. But this beautiful union has not stood the test of time.

Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson hit the headlines in the 1990s with revelations.

In the summer of 1992 it was for example Sarah Ferguson, then duchess of York, who had been photographed, without his knowledge, by paparazzi. She had then joined her lover, the businessman Johny Bryan in Saint-Tropez, accompanied by his two little daughters. After being surprised in the midst of unfaithfulness, Fergie, as the Britons call her, tried to pick up the pieces with her husband but to no avail. They end up divorcing in 1996.

The princess became pariah in the British royal family. In 2010, she is back on the tabloids. At the time, the Duchess of York believes meet a businessman who wants to get in touch with his ex-husband. Except that she was actually speaking to a News of the World journalist, Mazher Mahmood, who tricked her. He has indeed filmed in the process of offering to help him in exchange for 575,000 euros.

And yet Andrew and Sarah Ferguson have always remained very close, even living together in their home at the Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park. .

Sarah Ferguson, invited to the wedding of Harry and Meghan, is again considered a member of the royal family in its own right.

And rumor has it that the former couple, fallen in love, would plan to remarry! And no more need for the approval of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II since Prince Andrew no longer appears in the first six of the list who are obliged to obtain the assent of the monarch to unite, according to the Act 1772 which governs royal marriages.

With the birth of Prince Louis in April 2018 and that of Archie last May, Prince Andrew is now in 8th place in the order of succession to the throne.

TWO WOMEN HAVE EUROPEAN KEY POSTS

Ursula von der Leyen, a faithful of Angela Merkel

If the European Parliament gives the green light, it will be the first woman to hold this position. Member of the CDU like Angela Merkel, Ursula von der Leyen has always displayed her loyalty to the Chancellor, even if she distanced herself from her on certain topics, such as the introduction of an inter-professional minimum wage or female quotas for women. She has served in all the German Chancellor's governments since taking office in 2005: she was successively Minister in charge of the Family (2005-2009), Labor (2009-2013). and Defense (since 2013).

A trained doctor and mother of seven, Ursula von der Leyen, 60, is fluent in French and English. She is above all a fine connoisseur of the workings of the Union. She was born and raised in Brussels when her father was European Commissioner, before becoming Minister-President of Lower Saxony.

At the head of the European Commission, she will have to manage the multi-year budget 2021-2027 on which the Europeans will have to agree by autumn. Since May 2018, the European Commission has put a draft budget on the table. But to finance its new priorities and compensate for the departure of the British, it provides for a dry cut of 5% in the common agricultural policy. A decline deemed "unthinkable" by Paris.

Christine Lagarde "Ms. International Economist"

European heads of state have also appointed France's Christine Lagarde to take over from Mario Draghi as President of the European Central Bank (ECB) on 1 November. By becoming head of the Frankfurt institution, the director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) marks a clear break.

First woman to lead the prestigious business law firm Baker McKenzie, first woman to hold the post of Minister of the Economy in France in 2007, then first woman to head the International Monetary Fund (IMF) four years later Later, she became the first woman to chair the European Central Bank (ECB).

The appointment of Christine Lagarde as President of the ECB, which according to Andrew Kenningham, Chief Economist Europe at Capital Economics, should be at least as dovish as Mario Draghi, who will succeed in November, is well received by the markets. This appointment "reinforces our confidence that the ECB will ease its monetary policy in the coming months. We believe the bank should lower its deposit rate in September and restart QE before the end of the year, "he wrote.

His appointment to the ECB also reassures the countries of southern Europe, including Italy, who have a dim view of the candidacy of the president of the Bundesbank, Jens Weidmann, defender of a more orthodox line. Christine Lagarde will have to decide whether to pursue the same line of monetary policy in the years to come.

ABOUT POLICE VIOLENCE IN FRANCE

The ecologist protesters of Extinction Rebellion, who were participating in a peaceful (but undeclared) rally to block a bridge in Paris on Friday, were dispersed manu militari by the police. Images of tear gas and dragged militants provoked many indignant reactions.

"Police, gently, we do that for your children! ".

About 300 activists of the group Extinction Rebellion organized, Friday, June 28, a blocking operation of the bridge of Sully, in Paris. This group, born in late 2018 in the United Kingdom, calls for non-violent civil disobedience against "climate inaction". They were quickly and violently dislodged by the police

Pacifist protesters dislodged by tear gas

Around noon, after blocking some streets of the 4th arrondissement, the militants joined the bridge of Sully for a "festive" event. The demonstration had not been declared officially, but the prefecture had been warned the day before the mobilization.

The intervention of the police was muscular: the police sprinkled with tear gas the militants.

A report was requested from the police prefect

Following this evacuation, Christophe Castaner asked a report to the Paris police chief on the "modalities" of the evacuation. "At the request of the Minister, a technical inspection was launched and a report was requested to the Prefect of Police on how to manage this operation of law and order made necessary to restore traffic in the heart of Paris," he said. said the Ministry of the Interior.

The blocking of the Sully bridge, which links the 4th and 5th arrondissements, hindered the traffic routes, while France was going through a period of heatwave and alternating traffic was imposed in the capital that day.

According to the police headquarters, the police intervened to "stop the obstruction of the traffic generated by this action". After asking the officials "several times to disperse" and "in the face of their refusal to leave the premises," summonses were made without more success, said the prefecture. "This rally was later dispelled by the police," said the administration, which states that two people were placed in custody for offense of obstruction of traffic.

Criticism of law enforcement by the government?

"When I saw that, I asked myself questions and watched the video as a whole," said Ecology Minister François de Rugy, asked about this episode on Sunday on BFMTV.

Government spokeswoman Sibeth Ndiaye was more vocal on LCI: "I believe the activists in question were participating in a rally that was neither declared nor authorized. But "it does not justify gassing in the face and with such proximity, of course," she added.

As a reminder, tear gas can not be used within one meter and only to disperse violent demonstrations and not peaceful demonstrations. The police response was disproportionate, it seems.

The use of legitimate violence against troublemakers?

As it has been in certain manifestations of the "Yellow Vests" so that the act XII "Yellow Vests" had been planned as a "white march" in Paris for the wounded demonstrators.

"Today, there are 2,000 of which a hundred seriously affected," denounced Maxime Nicolle, one of the figures of the dispute. This was confirmed by the militant group "Disarming them." They lost an eye after a shot of LBD, a hand after the explosion of tear gas grenades GLI-F4, or were wounded by shots of pounding grenade DMP . Among them, Jérôme Rodrigues wounded in the eye by a shot of LBD or fragments of grenade DMP, he who filmed the rally place de la Bastille.

As much as they are to be seen, they denounced the use of these weapons by the police at the same time as they denounced "police violence".

The French government, for its part, defended the need for these weapons to avoid violent direct contacts and more injuries between protesters and police.

"What I know is that if we take them away from our police, what's left of them? They still have the body-to-body or their service weapon. I do not wish that they use their service weapon, and I wish to avoid the body-to-body. ". The speech of the Ministry of the Interior is that if we suppress them, the police will have no choice but to resort to their firearms and that there will be deaths. And the Council of State, seized in urgency, to reject the requests for suspension of the use of the launcher of defense bullets (LBD), believing that the risk of violence made it "necessary to allow the police to resort to these weapons ". But this speech sounds wrong in comparison to what is happening in other democracies.

In 2016, the Catholic Association against Torture and the Death Penalty (ACAT), published a report investigating police violence in France, entitled "Order and strength": the human toll is already heavy. The 112-page dossier, based among other things on the work done by Ivan Du Roy and Ludo Symbille, already highlights between 10 and 15 deaths per year and calls into question the use of sub-lethal weapons (LBD, Taser) and Police detective techniques (folding, ventral plating) in this one.

Convictions of international bodies of the use of LBD

On 14 February, a group of experts from the UN Human Rights Council issued a ground-breaking communiqué on the subject, saying that "the right to demonstrate in France has been disproportionately restricted" while giving the figure of 1700 wounded.

On 25 February, the Council of Europe calls on France to suspend the use of LBDs.

"The injuries caused by LBD shots reveal a disproportionate use of force, as well as the maladjustment of this type of weapon in the context of law enforcement operations," noted the Commissioner of Human Rights. Man of the ECHR, Dunja Mijatovic, in a ten-page memorandum.

And finally, Michelle Bachelet, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, has not failed to ask that France investigate police violence that has occurred during the Yellow Vest demonstrations since then. mid-November in a speech to the Human Rights Council in Geneva "We encourage the (French) government to continue the dialogue and urgently call for an in-depth investigation of all reported cases of excessive use of force Michelle Bachelet continued, putting France on the same list as Venezuela or Haiti.

The use of legitimate violence against troublemakers? Yet the same injury can be the result of legitimate and illegitimate violence

So much so that the parquet floor of Paris opened several preliminary inquiries

On Monday, 1 July, he also announced that he had opened a preliminary inquiry into "willful violence by a person in the custody of the public authority", in order to shed light on the conditions of this muscular evacuation. Being a "depositary of public authority" may also constitute an "aggravating circumstance" under Articles 222-12 and 222-24 of the Penal Code.

The subject of police violence must no longer be treated in the manner of the blunder, the exception, the accident, the slippage but not as part of an economic, political, social system, according to the researcher Mathieu Rigouste.

"What police, for what missions? What connections between the police and the government, what control of citizens over the police? "So the question arises.

THE VENGEANCE OF A BLONDE OR

PAMELA ANDERSON

THE LEAVE OF A PRINCESS OF DUBAI IN LONDON ABORS THE IMAGE OF EMIRAT

This flight hurts the reputation of the ruling family.

Princess Latifa, one of the Emir's daughters, fled to the United States in 2018 to escape her father, whom she accused of torture. She is arrested and forcibly taken back "home". She literally disappears from the public sphere, a young woman who would have made Princess Haya fear that the same thing will happen to her.

Several NGOs had condemned the attitude of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who allegedly concealed the reality of the case from his wife, making him believe that Latifa had been scammed and had to be rescued. But since then, Princess Haya would have learned the truth about Latifa's treatment and decided to run away.

Princess Haya Bint Al-Hussein reportedly fled to London "for fear of being murdered or forcibly returned to Dubai," according to the British press.

Ten years before the Latifa affair, another daughter of the emir, 17-year-old Princess Shamsa Al-Maktoum, had also tried to flee, Le Monde said. The teenager had taken advantage of the family's stay in England to escape the paternal grip. Caught up, the teenager was forced back to Dubai.

Divorce application

In London with her two children, Princess Haya therefore filed for divorce.

Half British by her mother, Haya Bint Al-Hussein has strong ties with the UK. The princess studied philosophy and economics at Oxford. And she and her husband are known to be close to Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles and his wife Camilla.

Her escape highlights the mistreatment of women in the Royal Family of the United Arab Emirates, a country that plays an important role in the British influence in the Middle East.

Towards a diplomatic crisis

This personal story could take an international turn. The princess who studied at Oxford University might want to stay in the UK. But if her ex-husband demands his return, this poses a diplomatic puzzle for Britain, which has ties with the United Arab Emirates but does not recognize polygamous marriage. It is also a problem for Jordan since Princess Haya is the half-sister of King Abdullah of Jordan and many Jordanians work in the United Arab Emirates. Moreover, the current tensions in the region are driving expats away and the economy is not in great shape.

"The Dubai ruler writes poetry on his broken heart by the departure of his wife Princess Haya, but given the treatment he gives to his two daughters in prison, he seems to tolerate women only when they remain confined in their gilded prison, "the Human Rights Watch director wrote on Twitter.

The flight of Princess Haya, a new scandal in the Emir's family in Dubai, once again darkens the image of the monarchy.

THE DRAMA IN THREE ACTS

OF PAMELA ANDERSON AND  ADIL RAMI

After discovering that the international defender Adil Rami seemed to lead a double life, Pamela Anderson, who lived in Marseille, has, in a series of posts on Instagram, published under a black and white photo of her couple, with a broken heart. "I got scammed, I thought we were living a + big love +," writes the former star of Alerte in Malibu. "I am devastated to have discovered, his last days, that he led a double life". The star also assures that the footballer has "tried everything": "he sent me flowers, letters (...) he came to my hotel, the security has dismissed because he scares me. He hurt and threatened me often. " Adil Rami was committed to domestic violence in prevention spots. According to Pamela Anderson: "He did this only to improve his image, he has no respect for women other than his mother."

Act II

The American star also accuses her of never really leaving Sidonie Biémont, the mother of her two children. "In no case do I lead a double life, I remain simply attached to preserve a lasting relationship with my children and their mother Sidonie for whom I maintain a deep respect. That's right, I should have been more transparent in this ambiguous relationship. I assume, "retorted late in the day Adil Rami, still on Instagram.

Act III

Sidonie Biémont, Adil Rami's ex-partner and mother of her two children, also spoke on Instagram, in the aftermath of Pamela Anderson's accusations, in a disturbing message to say the least.

"When we are in love, we are often deaf and blind ... We hang on to everything, the slightest sign, we interpret, we over-react, we leave room for the biggest lies. When we are in love we want to believe more than anything, we dream that one day the family will be reunited, we think we were right to choose this person for half, we idealize ... We excuse, we forgive, we minimize ... ", explained the young woman. "Then one day one wakes up annihilated and one sinks. I was very in love with Adil. ". When she mentions the "big lies" of the footballer in her tweet would she also refer to the double life of the sportsman? While everyone thought that Adil Rami had left Sidonie Biémont for Pamela Anderson, it does not seem to be the case.

Epilogue

The association Solidarité Femmes finally reacts to the case Pamela Anderson - Adil Rami and announces suspending its partnership with the footballer. The American star accuses Adil Rami of being threatening and violent with her. In particular, she said on her website that he had pursued her in Los Angeles and Saint-Tropez, that he "crushed both her hands" and that he "swayed her by the hair. "

"He lied to everyone.

How is it possible to control the hearts of two women like that? "

wonders Pamela Anderson.......

YOUR COMPUTER NEEDS !!

DEFRAGMENTATION TOOL

For the story, if at the time of the release of Windows 95 in 1995 the system contained a fast fragmentation tool effective and included in the system it is not the same currently.

Yes, Microsoft had also been criticized for providing a well-known Microsoft Internet Explorer web-browsing tool (included and free) to Windows 95, while many software companies at the time were selling web crawler software! !!

Today we do not know if it is for calculation, economy, or to leave the share to the other companies of software creation but it is a fact, the defragmentation tool provided with the current systems are not of a extraordinary performance. !!!!

Of course it is possible to buy a tool to complete your machine with a High Performance Defragmentation utility .

Defragmentation and a process that brings together the clusters that make up the files on your machine in a contiguous way to increase the performance of your PC.

Whatever the size of your Ram (memory of your PC) the system will anyway call for temporary files and a disk swap disk area performance because if the speed of the memories is measured in nanoseconds (0.000000001s ) the hard disks are in milliseconds (0.001s)

The new SSD-type drives are actually memories, but first and foremost their higher cost than the hard drives are one of the reasons why the classic hard drive still equips a very large fleet of machines.

The type of memory used in the SSD is not identical for many technical reasons to the RAM memory of a PC!

So yes the SSD is faster than a hard drive but there is still a very strong margin of progress in terms of disk type "Memory Disk" !!

On the other hand the disorder in the structure is whatever the technology of the disc a brake evicting the speed !!!!!

If to limit the wear of first generation SSDs whose life was quite limited we can say that currently even SSD can now benefit from defragmentation , so it is a great idea to have a PC at the top of its performances !!!!!!

After many tests of software in terms of defragmentions we choose Defraggler from Piriform for its quality.

Moreover Defraggler exists in several version of which a Free version that you will be able to download on the link which we provide with this article !!!

BREAK AND TREATMENT

BETWEEN PAMELA ANDERSON AND ADIL RAMI

This time it's over between Pamela Anderson and Adil Rami. The American star leaves the French footballer.

The actress of Alert Malibu gave Tuesday on his Instagram account the reasons for his separation with the defender Marseille:

he would have cheated on her since the beginning of their relationship, about two years ago, and would have led a double life with one of her ex-companions.

She is shocked to publish a long message on her Instagram account this Tuesday morning: "The last two years of my life have been a big lie. I was scammed, led to believe ... that it was the 'big love'. I am devastated to have discovered in recent days that he led a double life.

He joked about the other players who had girlfriends at the end of the street, in apartments close to their wives. He called these men monsters? "Writes the American star as a legend of a black and white photo of the couple. "It's hard to accept. (...) How is it possible to control the hearts of two women at the same time?

It's a monster, "she said.

The former candidate of "Dance with the Stars" had come to live in Marseille to join the footballer who, at the time, had left his wife for her. "Narcissists do not change. Sociopaths do not change. I will fight for my life. I have always fought for truth and justice. This is my worst nightmare. I was not very jealous before meeting him. I am happy to know the truth. But it hurts a dog.

Under her initial post, the American actress, who announces she will leave France, said she had a bodyguard because Rami "scares him." "He threatened me many times. [...] Physical and emotional torture, "she added.

FACING THE ASSAULT IN AREA 51 ULTRASECRETE

US ARMY LAUNCHES CLEAR WARNING

This Wednesday, July 17,2019, nearly 1.4 million people worldwide were registered for a Facebook event that plans to "storm" "Area 51" as they suspect the US military base , strictly forbidden access, to host activities related to extraterrestrials.

With a clear stake: to reveal the "truth" to America and the rest of the world after years of "lies". And for this, their watchword and name of their Facebook event is unambiguous: "Let's storm Zone 51 (because) they can not stop us all".

A group attack "Naruto"

"Let's go see these aliens. The description of the Facebook event is short and effective. This US Air Force base is one hour from Las Vegas, in the Nevada desert,

The theoretical plan for this rally, scheduled for September 20, can be summed up in two sentences: "" We meet at the "Alien Center" [a nearby tourist attraction] and we coordinate our entry. as in "Naruto" [the name of a famous manga character who has the particularity to run very fast with the arms extended to the rear], we will go faster than their bullets, let's go see these aliens. " hypothesis being: "they can not stop us all".

Indeed, we must not forget that all around the protected area, signs mentioning "use of the authorized force" are not lacking. This can be translated as "we allow ourselves to shoot you if you enter the area".

Thus, on September 20, the planned day of "the attack", they could well be several hundreds of thousands of people to sweep on this site located about 160 km north of Las Vegas despite the signs of prohibition of access stating that "the use of lethal force is permitted".

The warning of the US Army

The US military is following the event closely and does not seem willing to joke, on the contrary.

Covering an immense area of ​​1.2 million hectares, Area 51 was created in the 1950s, at the initiative of Richard M. Bissell Jr., a CIA officer who was then in charge of overseeing the development of U-2 spy planes with the approval of President Eisenhower. Today, officially, at least, they are tests of weapons and planes that are made there.

It is therefore an ultra-secret and inaccessible zone so that the US Air Force has not failed to react.

Contacted by The Washington Post on Friday, July 12, she and her spokesperson, Laura McAndrews, confirmed that she knew about the planned invasion and wanted to dissuade those who were really ready. to take the step.

"Area 51 is a site used as an open air training camp for the US Air Force and we discourage anyone from trying to come to the site (...) The Air Force is always ready to protect America and its assets, "she said, seeming to imply a possible use of armed force.

Last January, a civilian had managed to break into the base before being shot down by military forces, who are entitled to "the use of lethal force" in such a case. Message received five out of five for some who deflate ..

In this unhelpful context, and as the days go by, some people at the event admit that they are not really interested. "Hello US Government, it's a joke, I do not really intend to implement this plan; I just thought it would be funny and I would not feel responsible if people decided to storm Zone 51, "said Jackson Barnes, one of the organizers of the event. Would he have been afraid of the FBI?

Alien hunters or followers of conspiracy theories

But for some, hunters of aliens and followers of conspiracy theories, area 51 has fueled for decades all fantasies. Supporters of extraterrestrial life also regularly camp around the ultra-protected zone to watch it. So secret that its very existence was only recognized by the CIA in 2013, when the intelligence agency declassified documents on the U2 spy plane.

For them, it is indeed a meeting place between the US Army and the Aliens. They think that this area is the scene of mysterious experiments on extraterrestrials. And, to support their claims, they have been publishing for decades dozens of videos of "evidence" on streaming sites.

The mystery that surrounds the Area 51 has made it a subject of choice , in the pop-culture : we talk about it in X-Files, Roswell, Hill has eyes, Indiana Jones, Doctor Who or Futurama and The Simpsons, and even in the blockbuster movie "Independence Day".

Hoax or not?

But the organizers of the event "Let's storm Zone 51, they can not stop us all" did they not play on these fantasies and the credulity of some followers of the unusual?

Indeed the Facebook event has everything from the joke. Organized by the moderators of a meme site called "Shitposting Cause I'm in Shambles", in collaboration with a famous gamer on the Twitch social streaming network, the event's page is full of satirical publications on how to circumvent the defense system of the base as well as possible.

Hoax or not, some comments and memes about this event are worth seeing.

Let's start perhaps by the web's favorite. A well-motivated character, dressed in a sort of modified Mandalorian mercenary costume (Star Wars universe), giving the 2019 equivalent of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech.

Even the stars, like the singer Lizzo, lent themselves to the game.

And even the very serious Elon Musk would be put (in a fake tweet ...). "I will provide one of my flamethrowers to anyone who tries to storm Area 51".

ASSISTED BISEXUALITY OF MILEY CYRUS AND REFUSAL OF CHILDREN

Already ten years that Miley Cyrus is in a relationship with Liam Hemsworth with ups and downs to the point that the two stars have almost finished their story. But everything seems to be going well now. By the way, last December they said "yes" in all intimacy.

Since her marriage to Liam Hemsworth, Miley Cyrus has not left her husband. The two stars are inseparable and they seem to be on the same wavelength.

Nevertheless, even if she has just married, the star continues to live a full life. She is sexy on Instagram and does not hesitate to strip. "What I mean is, do people think I'm at home, in a kitchen apron?" " Said the former star of the series Hannah Montana who was offered the front page of the magazine" Elle "for the edition of August 2019.

Miley Cyrus says she is always attracted to women and she does not intend to be sober because she said "yes" to Liam Hemsworth. Indeed, the star benefits from his youth and she fully assumes his bisexuality. The American singer is married to a man. However, this does not prevent him from still having an attraction for women. "I think people are surprised that I'm married. But my story of heart is unique. And I'm not sure I want to let people get involved, because it's complex, modern, and new in a way that I do not think people can understand. (...) I am in a straight relationship, but I am still very attracted to women. I do not recognize myself in this stereotypical role of wife, "said the beautiful blonde of 26 years.

"I made a partner decision. This is the person with whom I feel most supported. I do not fit in the description of the wife. I do not even like that word. She continued.

And does she plan to have children? As newlyweds savor this new stage for their couple, as the company continues to force a couple to go through the baby box, Miley Cyrus opposes a categorical refusal. "It's a blessing but also a curse for them. women to be able to give life. We are expected to populate the planet. And when this is not part of our plans or it is not our goal, there is so much judgment and anger that they are trying to pass laws for Forcing us to keep a child even when you have become pregnant after a rape, said the interpreter of "Mother's Daughter".

She also mentions a reason for her decision: the state of the planet. Remembering the violent fire Woolsey, which made her lose her house - to her husband too - the star was justified. "We make nature the same as women. We always ask for more and we expect her to meet these needs. It's exhausting. It's impossible to answer this request. We inherit a planet in a beautiful shit and I refuse to pass it on to my child.

Until I feel that my child can live on a planet with more fish in the water, I will not give birth to a new person who will have to deal with it. Young people no longer want to have children because they know that the land will not be able to bear ", she said.

IN THE UNITED STATES LIFE SENTENCE

OF EL CHAPO BARON OF DRUGS

The leaders of which El Chapo was convicted on February 12, after a trial of three months, imposed, as a minimum, life imprisonment. Federal Judge Brian Cogan has chosen to add an additional 30 years in prison for the use of automatic weapons, following the prosecutor's requisitions.

In 2016 is the last arrest of this sexagenarian ego excess in a villa in Los Mochis, on the Pacific coast, in his stronghold of Sinaloa. Extradited to the United States on 19 January 2017 in a Manhattan prison, "El Chapo" is no more than the shadow of himself: isolated in his cell 23 hours a day, after two escapes to Mexico, only his lawyers and his seven-year-old twins can visit him. Even his wife Emma Coronel, a 32-year-old beauty queen, is forbidden to visit.

Life sentence

This is the most powerful drug baron in the world sentenced to life.

"The overwhelming evidence presented at the trial showed that [Joaquin Guzman] was the ruthless and bloodthirsty leader of the Sinaloa cartel," which he co-directed between 1989 and 2014, Brooklyn Federal Prosecutor's Office Richard Donoghue wrote in a statement. his indictment before the sentencing. Justice has not been done.

The one also called "Le Courtaud", a nickname due to its small size, about 1.67 m, is judged to have led for 25 years the most powerful drug cartel in the world.

During the trial, the prosecution showed that the Mexican had ordered the assassination or himself killed at least 26 people - sometimes after torturing them - who were informants, traffickers from rival organizations, police officers, collaborators or even members of his own family. Many of the documents remained confidential, as was the list of former associates, employees or rivals of Joaquin Guzman called to testify. Some enjoy the protection of the US government under new identities. Others are held in special prisons to prevent retaliation.

Shortly after the opening of the hearing on Wednesday, Joaquin Guzman spoke orally for the first time since his extradition to the United States in January 2017. He claimed to have been denied a fair trial and denounced his detention conditions, claiming to have been "physically, psychologically and mentally tortured 24 hours a day". "Justice has not been done," said the 62-year-old, who built, in thirty years, the most powerful cartel of Mexico.

"El Chapo" the most powerful narco-trafficker since Colombian Pablo Escobar

The Sinaloa cartel headed by Joaquin Guzman has shipped more than 154 tons of cocaine to the United States, as well as huge quantities of heroin, methamphetamines and marijuana, worth an estimated $ 14 billion. According to American prosecutors, "El Chapo" is the most powerful narco-trafficker since the Colombian Pablo Escobar, who died in 1993.

The downfall is tough for the one who led 25 years during one of the most powerful cartels on the planet, former hero of narco culture and "narcocorridos", these Mexican ballads that tell the cartel leaders.

Born April 4, 1957 to a poor family in a mountain village in Sinaloa, northwestern Mexico, Joaquin Guzman worked from childhood selling oranges, sweets and drinks.

As he tells the actor Sean Penn during an interview in October 2015 supposed to remain secret but which will contribute to his arrest, he begins, teenager, to cultivate marijuana and poppy, for lack of alternatives. "The only way to get money, to buy food, to survive, was to grow the opium poppy, marijuana, so at that age, I started to grow and sell it. He will confide to the American actor.

The chief of the cartel of Guadalajara Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo, nicknamed "the godfather" of the modern Mexican cartels recruits him. After the arrest of Gallardo in 1989, Guzman founded with three associates the Sinaloa cartel, in a few years becoming an empire with European and Asian ramifications. "I supply more heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine and marijuana than anyone in the world. I have fleets of submarines, planes, trucks and boats, "he boasted in the interview with Sean Penn, published in Rolling Stone magazine.

His fortune placed him on Forbes magazine's list of the richest men in the world, before escaping in 2013 because of the expenses necessary to protect him.

At least two of his sons are accused by US authorities of playing an "important" role in his cartel. Another son, Edgar, was shot in 2008.

Robin Hood helping the poor and ridiculing the powerful, El Chapo also waged an ultra-violent struggle against rivals, a war between cartels that still ravage Mexico today.

Where is the money ?

On Wednesday, the judge also ordered the seizure of $ 12.6 billion (11.2 billion euros), which corresponds, according to the prosecutor, the profits from drug trafficking. To date, American justice has not seen a single penny. According to the survey, several hundred million dollars would have passed through the banking system and El Chapo would have also invested in an insurance company located in the United States.

El Chapo should serve his sentence at the Administrative Maximum Facility, an institution located in the middle of nowhere, in Florence, Colorado. Nicknamed the "Alcatraz of the Rockies", the prison is considered the safest in the United States and is home to several famous inmates like Terry Nichols (accomplice in the Oklahoma City bombing) or Frenchman Zacarias Moussaoui, who participated in the preparation of the attacks Moussaoui, who participated in the preparation of the attacks of 11 September. "A sanitized version of hell," headlined the program 60 Minutes of the channel CBS in 2007.

Bridget Brennan, the New York Special Attorney for drugs, admitted that Joaquin Guzman's switch-off did not detract from the influence of the Sinaloa cartel. "We think it's the one who is responsible for getting most of the drugs into the United States," she said.

"The conviction and imprisonment of Joaquin [...] will not change anything in the war on drugs. Acknowledged Bridget Brennan.

CASE OF BERNARD TAPIE ADDIDAS / CREDIT LYONNAIS

THE BEGINNING OF JUSTICE

Bernard Tapie: "My cancer has just taken a dirty blow in the mouth" launched the former minister, under chemotherapy for a double cancer

"It's proof that you always have to fight to the end."

Dominique Tapie, the wife of the former minister commented:

"It's the best day of my husband's life because his honor has been recognized"

Hervé Temime Bernard Tapie's lawyer:

"The court has rendered with rare independence a judgment of exceptional clarity and it is for us (...) an immense satisfaction and a great liberation"

Prosecuted for fraud and embezzlement of public funds, former minister Bernard Tapie, a five-year prison sentence and 375,000 euros fine that was required on April 1, 2019, against the businessman, He was reproached for organizing, with his former lawyer Maurice Lantourne, arbitration "rigged" in consultation with one of the three members of the arbitral tribunal, the high magistrate Pierre Estoup to settle the dispute between Bernard Tapie and Credit Lyonnais, bound on the resale of Adidas in the 1990s.

For the public prosecutor, who has not yet announced whether he would appeal, Bernard Tapie had "rigged" the arbitration which had granted him in July 2008 the unprecedented sum of 45 million euros in respect of non-pecuniary damage .

This judgment does not, however, call into question the judgment of the Paris Court of Cassation in the civil part of the case.

The court annulled the arbitration in 2016, deeming it "fraudulent" and sentenced Bernard Tapie to repay the 404 million euros obtained.

A decision that appears today at odds with the relaxation pronounced in the criminal aspect.

However, the two procedures were not exactly the same thing.

- In the civil part, it was a question of judging the decision taken during the arbitration itself.

- In the criminal section, judges were interested in the conditions under which this procedure was chosen and executed.

- The court has not retried Adidas litigation, it was not seized, said Hervé Temime, the lawyer Bernard Tapie.

- But for me there is no consistency between these decisions.

Other relaxed person Stéphane Richard, 57, Orange CEO at the head of the telecom operator, at the time of the case, Stephane Richard was Chief of Staff of the Minister of Economy and Finance Christine Lagarde, for which the public prosecutor had requested against him three years of prison of which 18 months firm, 100,000 euros fine and a prohibition of any civil service during five years

Stéphane Richard, said on leaving the court:

"Today there is this relief to have my innocence totally recognized by this court, it's the feeling that dominates me, the court said the arbitration was legal, it even said it was legitimate" .

Seen from here (USA)

This judgment is only the beginning of a right return of things, because if the memory is missing a certain it is necessary to remember on the bottom of the facts which generated this situation !!

Indeed the case Addidas Bernard Tapie is not the only one in which the Credit Lyonnais has been involved !!!

Jean-Maxime Lévêque former president of Crédit Lyonnais but also owner of an exotic bank, International Bankers, is one of the actors of the Crédit Lyonnais disaster and its 120 billion losses of the nationalized bank!

Jean Maxime graduated from the ENA in 1948, senior official, inspector of finance, he accumulates prestigious appointments and represents France at the International Monetary Fund and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development.

He left his post of economic adviser at the Elysée in 1964 for the Crédit commercial de France (CCF), of which he became president in 1976.

In 1982 that turns the fate of Jean-Maxime Lévêque. This year he created a promising small bank, the International Bankers Incorporated Cy NV Holding (IBI), which he lives in the Netherlands Antilles.

The sulphurous story of Jean-Maxime Lévêque begins in Curaçao, in the Netherlands Antilles.

This tax haven will be the home of IBI. The Bank's operational headquarters, International Bankers SA, is located in Luxembourg.

In addition to the mysterious Sheikh Baroum, IBI's round table brings together three former CCF clients. There is the Syrian Akram Ojjeh, the Saudi Adnan Kashoggi and the Lebanese Samir Traboulsi.

With 130 million initial capital, the small IBI has great ambitions.

Jean-Maxime Lévêque, who wants to make it a star of international trading, quickly creates branches of the bank in Paris, London, Hong Kong and Geneva.

The bank's range of services is vast and particularly suited to companies and business people who want financial flows to be lost in specially created exotic companies.

In the field of the administration of offshore companies, explains a report of the direction of the economic and financial studies of Credit Lyonnais, IBI is able to intervene on twenty types of companies, located legally in Luxembourg or on other offshore places (Jersey, Panama, Netherlands Antilles, etc.).

The appointment of Jean-Maxime Lévêque in July 1986 as President of Crédit Lyonnais.

After the defeat of the right in the parliamentary elections of 1988, Jean-Maxime Lévêque is dismissed from the presidency of Lyonnais and regains the seat of president of an IBI he had not really left, since he had taken great care to maintain, in the meantime, the functions of vice-president of the bank.

In 1994, IBI's losses amounted to several billion francs, and Crédit Lyonnais, the leading shareholder, paid the bill alone.

On the money of the French taxpayer !!!

The most extravagant records of this financial madness:

Altus Finances, MGM, Addidas, Sasea and its accounts in Switzerland ...

With many influential businessmen like Robert Maxwell, Bernard Tapie, Florio Fiorini, Giancarlo Parretti ........ !!

Crédit Lyonnais innocent?

That's a lot of business !!

All guilty except the Credit Lyonnais ???

The case Addidas Bernard Tapie / Credit Lyonnais is too long, the compensation of Bernard Tapie seems normal, even if the sum of 404 million euros may seem important to the general public.

FRANCOIS DE RUGY THE RESIGNATION

The French Minister of the Ecological Transition after the multiple cascading revelations of MEDIAPART resigned this Tuesday, July 16, 2019.

At the center of a controversy over excessive spending, François de Rugy announced his resignation from the government, while considering himself victim of a "media lynching", and announcing to have filed a complaint of defamation against the site of investigation MEDIAPART .

MEDIAPART also reveals work worth 63,000 euros in its company housing.

One thing is certain: the torch burns between the French people and their leaders (political class) who seem to abuse public money in the eyes of citizens, while at the same time poverty and difficulties only increase with a taxation become unbearable, France being the world champion of taxes, taxes and levies of all kinds !!!

ON THE WIRE OF BURKINI

AND WE FIND AT THE END THE BILLION GEORGES SOROS

The question of burkini, which had calmed down a bit, has just resurfaced this year in Grenoble (but also in Villeurbanne) between May and June.

On June 23, a group of 7 women from the "Rosa Parks Musulmanes" collective, surrounded by members of Alliance Citoyenne, made their mark in the swimming pool of the Jean Bron swimming pool in Grenoble, wearing a burkini.

The case made a big splash.

Faced with the press, they invoked civil disobedience to oppose the swimming pool regulations deemed discriminatory.

These "incidents" that moved widely in France have led some to investigate the origins of the Alliance Alliance citizen.

And there! big surprise!

The Alliance Citoyenne association appears in the list of beneficiaries of the generous "Open Society Foundations", a network of foundations created by the controversial billionaire American-Hungarian Georges Soros.

In 2016, the Citizen Alliance was awarded $ 80,000.
Through its activity (or activism?) The association wants to rise in France at a national level, as part of the anti-discrimination campaign organization.
