Marking the 40th anniversary of the start of their dialogue ASEAN and the EU have agreed to work towards establishing a strategic partnership. While trade has always been the cornerstone of the relationship - ASEAN is the EU’s third largest trade partner - the EU’s ambition to expand its role as a global actor demand increased engagement. Both sides face common challenges that can only be addressed through joint responses that involve all stakeholders. To be strategic the partnership must embrace all aspects, from trade to energy, from climate change to security issues, from human rights to sustainable development. Deepening and enhancing relations between one of the most dynamic region in the world and the largest and most affluent market will bring important benefits to both European and ASEAN citizens. The last years have seen an increase in contacts but the many challenges faced today by the EU, internally and in its close neighbourhood, risk to require all attention and put the EU-ASEAN relations at risk. Finally the study argues that strengthening the parliamentary dimension of the relationship would, besides supporting representative democracy in Southeast Asia, contribute to maintaining the momentum launched in 2012.

La Cour internationale de justice de l’ONU a rejeté mercredi 19 avril la demande de Kiev de prendre d'urgence des mesures afin que Moscou mette fin « à tout appui » aux rebelles agissant sur son territoire. Les juges ont considéré qu’ils n’avaient pas suffisamment de preuves pour établir la responsabilité russe dans la guerre du Donbass. En revanche, la CIJ a reconnu la Russie coupable de discrimination à l’encontre des Tatars de Crimée.

The United Nations peacekeeping mission in South Sudan has done “significant work” to more effectively protect civilians and respond in case of a crisis, Secretary-General António Guterres has said in a letter to the President of the UN Security Council.

Without peace in South Sudan, millions of people will go hungry and millions of women and girls could be raped as they try to go about their daily lives, including as they search for food, a senior United Nations official today warned.

As it was promised, the activities of the group called ‘Protest Against Dictatorship’ continued right after the Easter holidays. Although there were fears that the march in Belgrade would turn violent as the big football derby was held at the same time between local giants Crvena Zvezda and Partizan, the night fortunately remained peaceful. Demonstrations were put on hold for the religious holidays, and now, Tuesday was the 16th time people gathered on the streets of the capital and major towns across the country.

It all began with the presidential elections held on April 2nd which the incumbent Prime Minister Aleksandar Vučić won already in the first round. His massive victory is unquestionable even though irregularities were reported and the media coverage during the campaign was one-sided in his favour. This is why the outbreak of the protests came as a slight surprise.

Until now, no central figure has appeared as the inventor and organiser of the protests. News spread wide through social media channels. As a consequence, mainly young people were invited to participate and the news agencies referred to them as ‘student protesters’. However, they are not the only ones dissatisfied, for example trade unions have announced their support. On the other hand, they do not have the open support of the Orthodox Church or universities.

Probably the lack of key organisers was one of the sources of different theories around by whom the movement is financed and called to the streets. Suspect number one is always George Soros in these cases. Protesters kept their sense of humour and answered with signs just like the background picture of this article (which says ‘Afterparty at Soros’s place’). Prime Minister and President Elect Aleksandar Vučić accused leaders of the opposition of planning to seize power through demonstrations because they failed to do so during the legitimate elections. Of course they responded by articulating fears that Vučić would decide to use the police force in order to provoke violence.

The ‘official’ demands of the protests look like to be deliberately unrealistic. Vučić does not show the slightest intention to resign, nevertheless, the greater the goals are, the bigger the media coverage becomes. It should also not be forgotten that several of these goals – such as resignations in the Republican Electoral Commission, RIK, the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media, REM, Radio Television of Serbia, RTS, and of the president of the National Assembly – were added later and are hardly the reason for the protests.

Naturally, the big question is how long the movement will last. First of all, they should agree on some kind of agenda. This way uncertainties regarding location and direction of the marches could be avoided. If they manage to ensure their popular support, the hope to slowly and gradually gain political power will always be there.

Un bateau de commerce a signalé au Cross Corsen, ce mercredi matin vers 11 h, la présence d’une embarcation à environ 40 milles nautiques au nord de l’île de Batz. Il n’était pas en mesure de le récupérer. 

Après inspection par un hélicoptère Caïman de la Marine, basé à Lanvéoc-Poulmic, il s’est avéré que le voilier sans mât d’environ 8,50 m était vide, le bout pendant à l’avant, comme s’il avait rompu son amarre. 

Compte tenu des courants et des vents, il pourrait être parti d’Angleterre il y a plusieurs jours.
