China denounces EU’s resolution on Hong Kong crackdown

By 525 0

The Asian superpower of China has strongly denounced the European Union resolution against the crackdown launched against Hong Kong democratic activists by the Communist Country.

The Communist China has termed the resolution as an interference.

The resolution has been passed by the European Union Parliament. It has demanded sanctions against certain Chinese and Hong Kong officials.

Hong Kong was under the control of the UK. The region, which is situated close to China, was recently handed over to China.

Since the transfer of the territory, China has been slowly injecting its political thought into the region, which inherited a liberal political thought process from its former master.

It is not clear at this moment whether the issue will affect the relation between China and the European Union.

It is less likely China take up a tough retaliatory action against the European Union.

The EU and China maintain a deep economic tie. In that sense, both depend on each other.

EU leaders want vaccination distribution accelerated

By 375 0

Leaders of the European Union have appealed for the acceleration of the distribution of Covid-19 vaccine.

They have requested for a pro rate population distribution. They have also appealed for an equal distribution of the vaccine among the countries in the union.

They have also advised vaccine companies to respect the commitments they have made in connection with the distribution.

The EU is a very powerful economic union. The ongoing vaccination program is the latest test the union faces.

The virus outbreak has inflicted a serious injury on the continent of Europe. It has directly or indirectly affected lakhs and lakhs of people across the continent.

Italy is one of the worst affected countries in the continent.

There were allegations that in the initial stage of the outbreak the union failed to respond in a timely manner.

The confusion generated in the initial stage even threatened the stability of the union, which helped the western world to sail safely through the turbulent waves of the post-War period.

The issue was even raised in the European Parliament.

The vigil the union shows at this juncture is in a sense an effort to avoid the repetition of the initial faults.

It seems that this time the world leaders are extremely vigilant.

EU loosing strength

By 342 0

Certain recent developments indicate that the EU, which is a powerful economic union, is losing its strength.

The EU is currently dominated by Germany and France, which were once angry rivals.

The Brexit is the major threat the EU faces at this juncture. Few years ago, the people of the UK overwhelmingly voted to walk out of the EU.

The EU has not yet recovered from the damage caused by the decision.

The second biggest problem the union faces at this juncture is the rise of far rightist elements in Italy, France and certain Eastern European countries.

The US was a friend of the EU. Unlike his predecessors, the US led by Donald Trump has led the country away from the union.

The change in the political structure of the US is likely to influence the future of the union.

The continent of Europe has benefited greatly from the union. It is pertinent that a serious effort is put to prevent the fall of the union.

It is high time to make a formula to overcome the present crisis the EU faces at this juncture.

EU demands immediate release of journalist Zhang Zhan

By 383 0

The European Union has demanded the immediate release of citizen journalist Zhang Zhan, who was jailed by China as his report regarding the Covid-19 outbreak in Wuhan irritated the Chinese government.

Apart from the journalist, the world’s most powerful economic union has sought the release of several reporters, lawyers and human right activists.

Ms. Zhang is the first journalist who has reported about the outbreak in Wuhan. She is a very fearless journalist.

A top EU official has revealed that the union has received a credible report to assume that the journalist has been subjected to torture and ill-treatment during the Chinese official custody.

The EU has recently reached a trade agreement with China. China considers the EU as an option to overcome the damage made by the US’ trade war. Considering the said realities, the EU’s suggestion is likely to be taken seriously by the Chinese government.

At this moment, it is not easy for China to damage its relation with the EU, which is set to become one of the main trading partners of the communist country.

It is expected that the western world will increase its pressure over China to make the country more democratic in nature.

By 353 0

At the time the world is facing a serious threat due to a highly contagious variant of Covid-19, the European Union has rolled out a mass vaccination program.

The program has been projected by the union as a symbol of the unity among the member countries of the union.  

While speaking to media personals, a top official of the union has said that the union had delivered vaccine to all member countries.

The European Union is a very powerful economic union. It consists of at least twenty seven countries.

Certain countries began the program last day itself, through the official commencement has happened together.

Europe is one of the most affected region due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The EU alone has witnessed as many as 3,35,000 Covid-related deaths, which is in fact a huge number compared to China.  

The disease has left around 14 million people infected in the EU. Certain EU countries have already imposed certain strict lockdown measures to prevent the resurgence of the virus.

What is depressing is that a contagious variant of Covid-19 is rapidly spreading in Europe, Canada and Japan.

It is high time to find a long-lasting solution to the virus issue. The world needs to develop a powerful program to overcome from the crisis.

Nagorno-Karabakh War: Russia scores at the expense of the EU

By 385 0

The Nagorno-Karabakh War is the most brutal war the continent of Europe has witnessed in its recent history.

The battle was between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Nagorno-Karabakh is a region located between these two countries. The region was controlled by ethnic Armenians, though was internationally recognized as a part of Azerbaijan. The conflict began, when Azerbaijan launched a military move to establish its recognised claim over the territory.

Azerbaijan had the support of Turkey and even the European Union.

When the war reached its final stage, Armenia, which enjoyed the indirect support of Russia, was at a losing end.

Generally speaking, Azerbaijan has won the war by establishing its authority of the majority of the land which were under the control of ethnic Armenians.

But, actually, the real winner is not Azerbaijan and Turkey; it is Russia.

It is Russia which has brokered a peace deal between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

What the development points at is the failure of the European Union – which is considered as the most powerful organisation based in Europe.

In reality, Russia has won where the European Union has miserably failed. What the incident exposes is the weakness of the union, which boats of its unity and stability, and is known for its peace-making framework.

Conservative Europeans block Covid recovery fund

By 315 0

Two conservative European countries, Hungary and Poland, have blocked the Covid-19 recovery fund, introduced to help those countries which were destroyed by the virus outbreak.

The European Union budget has been stopped using a clause that ties funding with adherence to the rule of law in the bloc.

Had the budget been passed, those countries which were devastated by the virus outbreak would have received a strong financial support of €750bn.

The EU functions on the basis of consensus. Each and every member has the right to veto European Union Budget.

The EU consists of over 27 member countries.

Hungary and Poland have used their veto power to block the budget.

Actually, these two conservative countries are not in a good relation with the rest of the European Union countries.

 The EU is currently investigating both countries for undermining the independence of courts, media and non-governmental organisations.

EU states had already agreed on the €1.1tn budget for 2021-2027, and the coronavirus stimulus package after a marathon four-day summit in July.

It is yet to been seen how the EU will handle the present crisis.

The EU is at the edge of a possible collapse. Already, the Covid-19 affected countries are angry with the EU for not coming to its rescue in a timely manner.

Moldovan Election: Opposition marks victory against incumbent

By 348 0

Maia Sandu, the opposition candidate, has defeated Igor Dodon, the incumbent President, in the Moldovan Election.

The winner has secured as many as 57.7 per cent vote. At the same time, her opponent, Mr. Dodon failed to wrist more than 42.2 per cent vote.

The contest, though was between Ms. Sandu and Mr. Dodon, was actually between the European Union and the EU rebel of Russia.

The winner is a pro-European candidate. The looser is a pro-Russian candidate. The result implies that the country in the near future may move close to the faction led by France and Germany away from the one led by Russia.

Ms. Sandu, who is 48-year old financial expert, is a former World Bank economist.

As soon as the initial trend has become out, the opposition has gone to a celebration mood.

The final result is expected to be released in the near future itself.

It is clear that the final result will be a big blow to the faction led by Russia and may reduce the influence of the European rebel in the region where the former Soviet satellite is located.

UK to tighten immigration policy

By 327 0

The European country of the United Kingdom has announced its plan to tighten its immigration policy. As per its new policy, no person with a serious criminal record will be allowed to enter the country.

 The new policy is applicable to all, including Europeans.

The policy has been announced by a senior officer in the United Kingdom.

The decision has been taken to reduce the threat posed by criminals to the people of the United Kingdom.

It is yet to be seen whether the policy can be implemented perfectly or not. If the UK is forced to accept a no deal Brexit, it will make it difficult for the UK to implement the policy.

The no-deal Brexit means no sharing of criminal record.

The policy is likely to attract criticism.

The main flaw about the policy is that there is a lack of clarity about the policy. Also, there is a lack of clarity about how the policy can be implemented.
