More Details on Reasons Behind US Decision to Leave INF Treaty

The US announced its withdrawal from the INF Treaty without having an intermediate ground-based missile to deploy. It made arms control pundits wonder what triggered this decision. Even if the China threat were not exaggerated and Russia’s alleged “treaty violations” were true, there would be no explanation for National Security Adviser John Bolton’s statement that the US was leaving the landmark agreement with no land-based intermediate range weapon of its own nearing operational status. Picking up useful bits of information here and there is the best way to find answers to hard questions. It takes time but the effort pays off.

Governments and ruling regimes tend to face revolution in the face of harsh hikes in prices. Margaret Thatcher’s rule in Britain was rocked by the poll tax. In France, the once enthusiastically embraced Emmanuel Macron has decided to leave the ground rich with challenges against his administration. The Yellow Vests, the gilet jaunes, have decided to take up the chance protesting with such intensity it has led to death and serious injury.

Ukraine accuses Russia of opening fire on some of its ships in Black Sea

KIEV (Reuters) - The Ukrainian navy accused Russia on Sunday of opening fire on some of its ships in the Black Sea, striking one vessel and wounding a crew member.
The Ukrainian navy made the statement on its Facebook page after a day of rising tensions during which Russia stopped three Ukrainian navy vessels from entering the Sea of Azov via the Kerch Strait by placing a huge cargo ship beneath a Russian-controlled bridge.

anmerkung:
Bei den beschlagnahmten Booten der Ukraine handelt es sich um Artillerieboote der Klasse Gyurza-M namens Berdyansk und Nikopol sowie einem Schlepper namens Yany Kapu.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyurza-M_class_artillery_boats

Laut russischer Regierung haben die Boote die Artikel 19 und 21 der UN-Seerechtskonvention verletzt.
Diese regeln die Durchfahrt durch Meerengen wie der Straße von Kertsch (Krim).

Der Status der Halbinsel Krim ist zwischen der Ukraine und Russland weiterhin umstritten.
Mit der Ausrufung des Kriegsrechts könnte die ukrainische Regierung Demonstrationen und Wahlen verhindern.

Poroshenkos Zustimmungsraten sind derzeit sehr niedrig.

Die im Dunkeln Blackrock

Wie schaffte es der US-Konzern an die Spitze der Finanzwelt? Mithilfe von Hypothekenpapieren, Krisengewinnlerei – und Aladdin

Denn „sie alle haben begriffen, die Manager, Unternehmer, Banker, Großanleger, Politiker, Ökonomen, dass der Amerikaner so etwas ist wie der unerklärte Präsident der Weltfinanzgemeinde, der Oberste der Ober-Kapitalisten, der Gesetze und Geschicke des Kapitalismus mehr bestimmt als viele andere“, so der Handelsblatt-Autor Hans-Jürgen Jakobs, der dabei sein durfte.
