Washington caput mundi par Manlio Dinucci Réseau Voltaire | Rome (Italie) | 4 mai 2025 italiano Nederlands Português

Washington caput mundi par Manlio Dinucci Pendant que le président Trump négocie avec l’Ukraine et avec l’Iran à la recherche d’une hypothétique paix, son administration poursuit la politique meurtrière de son prédécesseur. Les tentatives de paix ne doivent pas nous cacher que, dans cette lutte contre la montre, en cessant de financer les agences des Nations-Unis, les États-Unis provoquent plus de souffrance que lorsqu’ils finançaient directement des guerres.

Les enjeux des négociations de Donald Trump avec l’Ukraine par Thierry Meyssan Réseau Voltaire | Paris (France) | 6 mai 2025 Deutsch ελληνικά English Español italiano Nederlands Português русский

Les enjeux des négociations de Donald Trump avec l’Ukraine par Thierry Meyssan Le président Donald Trump n’est pas parvenu à apporter la paix en Ukraine comme il croyait pouvoir le faire. Il a découvert une situation bien plus complexe qu’il ne le pensait. Refusant de prendre parti pour l’un ou l’autre camp, il s’est trouvé plongé dans un conflit vieux d’un siècle entre deux frères ennemis ; un conflit que ses prédécesseurs, Barack Obama et Joe Biden, ont alimenté et instrumenté. Il doit donc éclairer ses concitoyens avant de pouvoir débloquer la situation.
