The promise of frictionless money has matured into something far more consequential: a liquidity system powerful enough to reorder economies, and elusive enough to escape the laws meant to govern it.

La tension a continué de monter dimanche dans le sud-ouest de la France, où des éleveurs de bovins ont multiplié les blocages avant la venue, lundi, de la ministre de l'Agriculture Annie Genevard, dont ils contestent la gestion de l'épidémie de dermatose nodulaire contagieuse.

Filmée, Brigitte Macron a insulté un groupe de militantes du collectif NousToutes venues interrompre le spectacle d'Ary Abittan, un comédien accusé de viol, mais qui a bénéficié d'un non-lieu. Cette séquence est l'occasion de mettre en lumière la mission de ce collectif. Pour nous accompagner cette semaine, la journaliste spécialisée dans les violences sexistes et sexuelles Laurène Daycard. L'autrice de "Nos Absentes" reconstitue le parcours des femmes qui meurent sous les coups de leur conjoint ou ex-conjoint.

La police a confirmé la mort de l'un des assaillants. L'autre tireur est actuellement en garde à vue et blessé.

Lorsque les mouvements sociaux piétinent, que l'austérité budgétaire domine le débat public, qu'un président français et une bureaucratie européenne voient dans le réarmement et la rhétorique guerrière les remèdes à leur folle impopularité, il est bon de se rappeler qu'en novembre-décembre 1995 (…) / France, Politique, Idées, Mouvement de contestation, Économie, Libéralisme

Il y a un an, le 14 décembre 2024, le cyclone Chido dévastait Mayotte. La ministre des Outre-mer Naïma Moutchou est arrivée samedi sur place. Pour évoquer la situation dans l'archipel, France 24 reçoit Sabrina Mathiot, directrice de l'Union sociale pour l'Habitat Outre-mer.

Les autorités allemandes ont annoncé samedi 13 décembre au soir avoir arrêté cinq hommes soupçonnés de préparer un attentat à la voiture-bélier d'inspiration islamiste visant un des milliers de marchés de Noël du pays. Un an après l’attaque meurtrière à Magdebourg, ces marchés traditionnels se tiennent sous haute sécurité.

A több mint ötven éve repülő Boeing 747-es típus másodvirágzása az elmúlt évtizedben fellendült e-kereskedelemnek köszönhető. A légi áruszállításban az utasforgalomból fokozatosan kiszorult és kargógéppé átalakított Jumbók éppúgy megtalálhatók, mint az eredetileg is teherszállítónak készült példányok. Néhány ilyen gép kormánya mögött magyar pilóta ül. Egyikük Szüle Zsolt kapitány, aki immár tíz éve repüli a legendás típust. 

Volt idő, amikor a Boeing 747-esre csak a közforgalmi repülésben eltöltött évtizedek, a szakmai lépcsőfokok megmászása – 10-15 ezer óra repült idő, szélestörzsű tapasztalat, stb. - után, pályafutásuk megkoronázásaként kerülhettek a pilóták. Az ezredfordulót követően ez megváltozott, és már a fiatalabb repülőgép-vezetők is lehetőséget kaptak a típuson. Így bukkantak fel a világban szerencsét próbáló, szakmai kihívást kereső magyar pilóták is a B 747-esek fedélzetén. Ők többnyire első tisztként dolgoztak, és csak néhányukból lett idővel kapitány. Arra sokáig nem is volt példa, hogy valaki kapitányként debütáljon a Jumbón. Az elsők között volt Szüle Zsolt is, aki először légiforgalmi irányító majd később Boeing 737-es első tiszt és kapitány lett. A párhuzamosan űzött két hivatás nehezen fért meg egymás mellett, és amikor döntenie kellett, a frekvencia másik végét, a pilótafülkét választotta.

A közelmúltban azért kerestem meg, hogy saját élményein és tapasztalatain keresztül nyújtson betekintést a Boeing 747-esen dolgozó, világjáró kargópilóták kívülről kalandosnak tűnő, belülről olykor nagyon is rögös mindennapjaiba. Beszélgetésünkre, ha nem is egy Jumbo fedélzetén, de mindenképpen autentikus környezetben került sor, Zsolt B 747-es szimulátor központjában, a Simflite-ban. Arra kértem, hogy mielőtt elmerülünk a kargópilóták mindennapjaiban, röviden idézze fel a pilótafülkébe vezető út főbb állomásait.

Long-running mechanical, faulty metallic alloys in the Prop-Rotor Gear Box and lack of synergy between the U.S. Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps have compounded the V-22 Osprey’s troubles. Faulty parts, inconsistent communication of safety and hazard risks from the Joint Program Office, and poor coordination between the U.S. Marine Corps, Navy and Air Force, […]

BBC Sport Africa sélectionne six joueurs à suivre lors de la Coupe d'Afrique des nations 2025, qui se déroulera au Maroc du 21 décembre au 18 janvier.

Since the 1990s, the G7 has increasingly addressed gender equality in its political declarations. Treating gender equality initially as a challenge to be tackled mainly abroad, the group later acknowledged the need for change in its member countries too. In addition, over the years the G7 shifted from focusing on economic inclusion of women as a means to increase economic growth to considering gender equality as a goal in itself, to be addressed in other policy fields also. To what extent this changing approach to gender equality in the G7's declarations has influenced policy changes within G7 countries and abroad is hard to assess. In principle, the G7 has the potential to exercise two functions with respect to gender equality. First, the G7 might coordinate group members’ national policies and the activities of international organisations in this area. However, given the democratic deficits of the G7, it is questionable whether it is desirable for the group to exercise this function, especially since it does not seem necessary for the effectiveness of gender equality policies that these policies are internationally coordinated. Second, the G7 could serve as a forum for the transnational exchange of experiences and ideas.

Européens, Ukrainiens et Américains se retrouvent, dimanche 14 et lundi 15 décembre à Berlin, sans participation russe pour des nouvelles négociations sur l’Ukraine. Pour les alliés européens de Kiev, à commencer par le chancelier allemand Friedrich Merz, le but est de travailler sur les propositions américaines - au départ peu favorables à Kiev - pour trouver un compromis plus équilibré. L’émissaire américain Steve Witkoff est également de la partie.

C'est dans la division et la crainte quasi permanente d'une possible implosion que la Bosnie-Herzégovine commémore le trentième anniversaire des accords qui ont mis fin à la sanglante guerre de 1992-1995.

Le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky a déclaré jeudi que les États-Unis continuaient de demander d'importantes concessions de la part de son pays dans les négociations pour mettre fin à la guerre avec la Russie, dont le retrait de ses troupes du Donbass. Or, c'est dans la région de Donetsk, où se déroulent l'essentiel des combats, que la défense ukrainienne repose sur la ceinture fortifiée. Un dispositif militaire sans équivalent.

— Open Source Intel (@Osint613) December 12, 2025 Does anyone know what kicked off the fighting here? I thought it was just border clashes but it looks like the Thai Army is going full tilt boogie now.
Between this, the RSF and Burko whatever in Africa running wild, to even ISIS attacking our guys in Syria and of course Ukraine/Russia plus China continuing to push things against Taiwan that we could easily be in a multi-front war in the next few years.
Have to wonder how that'll workout.
I know the US will, or at least want to , prioritize Taiwan.  The Europeans have made noise (well actually just the UK and sometimes France) about supporting us there but I seriously doubt it.
Ukraine doesn't seem to want an end to the fighting so that will rage and no one seems to give a damn about the persecution of Christians in Africa by the Muslim horde and everyone (with sense) wants to wash their hands of the Syria mess.
I think it'll break down like the latest security assessment called for.  Until they cross the line Ukraine will prioritized at the expense of all else.  SOCOM will have a playground in Africa and Syria (but they will need MASSIVE conventional support).  The Navy will continue to play the flex role of supporting SOCOM more and more in Africa and Syria, along with the USAF.  The 82nd and 101st will probably be tasked with helping SOCOM too.
Drawdown of Army forces in Europe will be delayed (cause everyone in power was once a Russia expert and that's the fight they WANT) with the USAF getting stretched to support a mission there.
China will see their chance and make a move on Taiwan before the next presidential election and that will change the world.  WE MIGHT hold onto it by our fingernails but we'll see the destruction of many ships, a few MLRs and a multitude of aircraft.
I think things are lining up for shit to get nasty in the next few years.  Oh and notice that while the Thailand/Cambodia thing rages it wasn't even listed?  That leaves out another flair up between Pakistan/India, China/India, Pakistan/Iran and of course Israel and damn near the entire Middle East.
