Die Diskrepanz ist groß zwischen der Hauptstadt-Sicht und jener in den Regionen: „Berlin will die zentrale Steuerung der Energiewende“, sagt Peter Moser vom Kompetenznetzwerk dezentrale Energietechnologien deENet in Kassel, „aber die Energiewende muss dezentral passieren.“ In Mosers Satz, gefallen auf dem Kongress „Energieautonome Kommunen“ diese Woche in Freiburg, steckt dann auch ein ganz entscheidendes Problem der Energiewende: „Berlin steuert immer stärker in die Länder und Regionen hinein.“

Basis Ramstein wichtig für US-Drohnenangriffe - Gezielte Tötungen vermeintlicher Terroristen durch die USA mithilfe von Süddeutschland aus gesteuert...


Deutschland hat erneut ein Problem mit den USA. Wie Recherchen der Süddeutschen Zeitung, des NDR und WDR zeigen, führt die Weltmacht ihren Drohnenkrieg von deutschem Boden aus. Und das, obwohl US-Präsident Barack Obama noch vergangenen Sommer klar dementierte: "Ich weiß, dass es einige Berichte in Deutschland gegeben hat, dass es das eventuell der Fall sei. Das ist nicht der Fall", hatte er bei seinem Deutschlandbesuch verkündet.

les politiciens n’ont « rien à dire à la jeunesse d’un pays rongé par le chômage »...


Chaque 6 avril, Sarajevo commémore sa libération en 1945 mais aussi le début de la guerre, en 1992. Cette année, les militants du Plenum des citoyens se sont invités aux cérémonies officielles pour demander plus de justice sociale, comme ils le font chaque jour depuis le début du mois de février.

British people must know 'the facts' on EU; She boasted about about how 70 per cent of UK's laws are now made in Brussels... Citizen’s Dialogue?


Speaking at an EU-sponsored ‘Citizen’s Dialogue’ event in London, Mrs Reding accused British politicians and media of so misrepresenting the EU that it is now impossible to hold a fair referendum on Britain’s membership of the EU. ‘You are on the verge of having (to take) maybe a national decision?’ she said.‘Do the people who are asked to vote know what they are going to vote about?’

In compliance with the EU practices, the text of the treaty will be made available only in the final stage of the negotiations, after the signing of the document by both parties.


Over a month ago, the Modern Poland Foundation posed two questions to the Ministry of Economy regarding the currently negotiated TTIP treaty: 1. What is the current shape of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) treaty in the context of exclusive rights to intangible goods (in other words so called intellectual property rights)? We are particularly interested in provisions concerning the copyright law. 2. What is the Polish negotiating position regarding the provisions concerning intellectual property rights?

”the establishment of a bilateral process through which the US could provide input to the EU’s process for setting standards, norms, and systems in a variety of fields…”


The US demands more of us in these negotiations than that we change our current rules?...
... Do they not know that there´s a heated debate on in Europe precisely on how European legislation is conducted? Have they not heard British Prime Minister David Cameron, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt and recently, com to think of it, German Chancellor Angela Merkel? They all argue most vociferously that the EU is meddling too much in member countries affairs. They demand to renationalize powers. They will not have outside forces interfering in their countries and how they are run, so there.

why USA need TTIP?


US officials on Friday slammed plans to construct an EU-centric communication system, designed to prevent emails and phone calls from being swept up by the NSA, warning that such a move is a violation of trade laws. Calling Europe’s proposal to build its own integrated communication system “draconian,” the office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) said American tech companies, which are worth an estimated $8 trillion per year, would take a financial hit if Brussels gives the initiative the green light.

The rally saw between 25,000 and 50,000 people, mostly from Belgian trade unions, march past the US mission toward the EU district, where leaders gave speeches before the crowd melted away. Protesters aired a mixed bag of grievances. One man told EUobserver he is against “austerity.” A second one said he is against “wage dumping”.

il n'est pas rare de percevoir un grand écart permanent pour l'actuel gouvernement luxembourgeois, désireux d'assurer un accompagnement pour les opérateurs de la finance internationale et le besoin de prendre à leur juste hauteur les attentes de ses pairs, on pensera à Bruxelles et la Commission, pas moins les États-Unis qui finalement, ménagent de façon plutôt bienveillante cette porte d'entrée indispensable et incontournable en Zone euro, nombreux groupes tiennent sièges à Luxembourg qui se fait un acteur incontournable de la structuration de groupes internationaux.

La signature du TTIP entraînera l'exploitation sans condition du gaz de schiste en Europe...


La recommandation de l’Union européenne - qui n’est qu’une recommandation - n’est pas suffisante et doit être replacée dans le cadre de la négociation de la zone de libre-échange transatlantique (TAFTA) qui a lieu en ce moment, entre Washington et Bruxelles : toute la position de l’UE est à lire à travers ça. Si l’accord est signé, cela signifiera que les multinationales ne dépendent plus du droit des pays dans lesquels ils vont opérer. Si TAFTA est signé, cela voudra dire que toutes les compagnies qui disposent d’un permis pourront procéder à l’exploitation du gaz de schiste, peu importe qu’il y ait une loi en France qui interdise la fracturation hydraulique.
