In a report submitted to the UN Human Rights Council, UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Michael Lynk says that the situation in the occupied Palestinian Territory has moved beyond occupation and annexation, and now amounts to the crime of apartheid.
AMLO’s policy of rebuilding PEMEX and the Federal Electricity Commission has affected the interests of European capital. That’s why Mexico’s government has drawn attacks recently from international media and the European Union.
Indian foreign policy needs a strategic course correction. India should distance itself completely from the self-centred U.S. polices whose aim is the preservation of its global hegemony. The first step in that direction should be to quit Quad.
A new president brings hope and the promise of change. On March 11, thirty-six-year-old Gabriel Boric—the youngest Chilean president ever to have been elected—took office in an environment of enormous expectation and almost revolutionary optimism.
Given our world, we should all probably be in the streets now. I mean, here we are heading into Cold War II, while facing the possibility of World War III on a planet that, thanks to the way we live and produce energy, is heading for hell.
Born on April 10, 1979, in Olympia, Washington, Rachel Corrie, a liberal arts major, a peace activist, and a human rights volunteer/observer was brutally murdered by Israel Defense forces in Gaza on March 16, 2003.
To understand the origins of the New Cold War and the onset of the current Russian entry into the Ukrainian civil war, it is necessary to go back to decisions associated with the creation of the New World Order made in Washington when the previous Cold War ended with the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
News has appeared that Ukrainian President Zelensky has conceded that he is willing to concede to the Russian demand that his country will not seek to become a member of NATO. If it is so easy to work out a compromise over Russia’s legitimate security demands, why was Biden so very stubborn in his refusal to even discuss it, given the urgency of the matter?
“Coming out” on thyroid cancer — or indeed about any negative health impacts resulting from the Fukushima nuclear disaster — remains largely taboo in Japan. Studies that conclude the medical impacts are significant or even substantial, are met with hostility, stoniness or just plain silence.
Finland’s education system borrows the best from both capitalism and socialism. The government pays from the tax system, and the people, whether rich or poor, get the same education.
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
Address: D-15, Ganesh Prasad, Naushir Bharucha Marg, Mumbai- 400007.
