White And Blue Bathroom Vanities

unity in diversity beyond Europe's borders

Yesterday the Greens in Erfurt invited to a discussion on the topic "20 years of peaceful revolution". It discussed the 68 and EU parliamentarians Milan Horacek and the GDR civil rights and European election candidate Werner Schulz .

After the years 1968, 1989 and their connecting lines were fully resolved, the discussants were devoted to the challenges ahead. Looking back on his work in the Human Rights Committee of the European Parliament, said Horacek the indivisibility of human rights. Therefore, he would devote the same for the Dissenters in the wrong state as provided for in court Wirtschaftsmilliadär in Russia.

In view of the situation in Afghanistan underscored the necessity of international engagement Horacek. The alternative would be not only a renewed Taliban rule, but a coherent Unruhrachse from Pakistan to Afghanistan to Iran and Iraq. Although there was also the indivisible right to peace, but this would be without the military presence of the international community in Afghanistan is not secure.

launched from their biographies both debaters from the contract itself even beyond the borders of Europe for universal human rights to use, while advocating peaceful reforms in countries such as China and Russia. Werner Schulz stressed that the theme, which meant with the creation Greens 'unity in diversity', has become the motto of the European Union.

It would apply to advocate that this slogan and beyond Europe's borders is a reality of time.

Things To Wear With Black Skirt

threatened economic and financial crisis, euro zone: Implications for the European elections?

In the current issue of the monthly magazine 'Global Perspectives ' outlines the journalist Eric Walberg the future of the Euro-zone in black colors. The current financial crisis, the columnist, lead to excessive demands of the European Monetary System.

suffered particularly the candidate countries to the euro zone in Eastern and Central Europe under the strict regime. In the current financial and economic crisis, it would not need any fiscal headroom. Social unrest in Latvia, Lithuania and Bulgaria, caused by severe cutbacks in wages and the social system, have already resulted in enormous clashes with the police. The International Monetary Fund have long been demanding the devaluation of national currencies, but this was excluded in the current European exchange rate mechanism.

Walberg shows that even the countries within the euro zone will not go much better. Greece and Ireland are well on our way to the national bankruptcy of Iceland to follow. France faces a wave of strikes against unimaginable proportions, and fear must also escalating social unrest in its overseas territories.

The euro system that makes Walberg responsible for all this had turned into a straitjacket of its Member States. These are too different to be successful with their uniform policy. In addition, I served the liberal economic policy of the EU, especially large companies and banks for the benefit. The same it is now, the cry successfully in the crisis for the support of the state. This will have to pay the citizens, by today's cuts in wages, social and educational systems and through reduced financial flexibility for future Generationen.Walberg predicts the euro-zone revolutionary unrest. This I can not so follow, but the current situation certainly affect the elections for the European Parliament in June.

forecasts show that will be the current crisis and the consequent fear of unemployment an election issue No. 1. With the European elections, the majority in the European Parliament are not expected to change significantly ( predict09.eu ). The two big political families will continue in near-Wide Coalition the European legislative process dominated, supported in turn by the smaller Liberal and Green camps.

The current crisis does not seem working in favor of a higher turnout . regarding media coverage of the elections is still low. This is dramatic, thanks to come in the meantime at least 70% of all laws that are adopted in Germany, from Brussels.
