President Cyril Ramaphosa sê ten spyte van die uitdagings en misverstande wat ontstaan het, bly Suid-Afrika ʼn goeie vriend van die Amerikaanse mense. Hy sê dis jammer Amerika het nie aan die G20-leiersberaad deelgeneem nie. Ramaphosa sê die redes wat Amerika aangevoer het, is gebaseer op vals bewerings dat Suid-Afrika volksmoord teen Afrikaners pleeg en wit mense se grond afvat:
President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die uitwerking van Suid-Afrika se G20-presidentskap strek verder as die hartlike verwelkoming vir en die onvergeetlike ervaring van besoekers. Hy het die land ingelig oor die sukses van die G20-leiersberaad, die eerste wat op Afrika-bodem gehou is. Hy sê Suid-Afrika het Afrika se groei en ontwikkeling in die hart van die G20 se agenda geplaas en dit gedoen terwyl die wêreld ingewikkelde uitdagings in die gesig staar:
Adjunkpresident Paul Mashatile sê die G20-leiersberaad het die belange van Afrika en die Globale Suide in die middelpunt van wêreldwye besluitneming geplaas. Hy het die 58ste algemene vergadering van die Suider-Afrika-ontwikkelingsgemeenskap se parlementêre forum toegespreek. Mashatile het verskeie verbintenisse van G20-leiers uiteengesit, insluitend steun vir skuldbehandeling-hervormings, verbeterde verteenwoordiging van Afrika suid van die Sahara binne die Internasionale Monetêre Fonds en wêreldwye hernubare energieteikens:
America just slapped us with tariffs, cut aid and offered ‘evacuation plans' to a few Afrikaner white farmers, basically telling us we messed up. You might be asking yourself, what's up with this beef again between the US and SA? Last week, Trump posted on social media (Truth Social) that the US would bar South Africa from the next G20 Summit, hosted in Miami in 2026, a direct reaction to what he called Pretoria's mistreatment of white farmers, alleging “killing white people” and “human-rights abuses”. He followed that up with a suspension of US subsidies and financial aid to South Africa. The official statement from the South African government described Trump's post as “regrettable” and “not substantiated by fact,” rejecting claims that any group in SA is facing systemic “genocide.” In response, last night President Ramaphosa addressed the nation, calling the US move “punitive,” stressing SA's sovereignty and affirming SA's right to sit at the G20 “in its own name and right.” Relations that were already tense have now escalated into a near-full breakdown of diplomatic goodwill. Stacey and J Sbu were joined by renowned comedian Carvin H Goldstone to discuss this topic. If you missed it live, listen in!

Such an elevated reading has been seen only a few times over the last 35 years. Over the last 2 years, global central banks have cuts rates 316 times, the highest reading in at least 25 years. To put this into perspective, there were 313 cumulative cuts in 2008-2010 in response to the financial crisis. Global monetary policy is easing. Amazing How Central Bank Money-Printing Reversed around the World after the Inflation Shock Balance sheets of the Fed, ECB, BOJ, BOE, and central banks of China, Canada, Australia, Switzerland, and India as % of GDP. The major central banks around the world have been unwinding their balance sheets for the past few years, even the Bank of Japan, which got a late start in 2024. Their balance sheets had swollen to grotesque proportions during the global QE frenzy that started in 2008, and QE-mania during and after the pandemic. But that has been getting unwound. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS), an umbrella organization owned by its member central banks, released its latest quarterly data on central bank balance sheets today. We'll look at the decline of the balance sheets of nine major central banks: Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan, People's Bank of China, Bank of England, Central Bank of India, Bank of Canada, Reserve Bank of Australia, and the Swiss National Bank. In normal times, central-bank balance sheets, including the Fed's balance sheet, grew with the economy, as measured by GDP; and the ratio of total assets as a percentage of GDP back then was low and roughly stable over the years. Years of QE then caused the ratios to explode. And years of QT have now caused the ratios to shrink dramatically. They're all seeing the same thing: A continued threat of inflation and massive distortions and risks in asset prices, including dangerous housing bubbles that are now deflating in some markets. So they've been removing some of the fuel, to walk back from those risks.

Based on the video clip in the X post you linked, here’s the relevant excerpt from his remarks:“The next couple of years, I think we’ll substantially be cutting and maybe cutting out completely, but we’ll be cutting income tax—could be almost completely cutting it—because the money we’re taking in is going to be so large.”This aligns closely with the claim in the WatcherGuru post. Multiple news outlets have reported on the comments, confirming they are authentic and recent. For context, Trump has floated similar ideas about offsetting or replacing income taxes with tariff revenue multiple times during his campaign and presidency, though experts have questioned the feasibility due to the massive revenue gap (tariffs currently generate far less than income taxes). DOGE Geopolitical Globalist Germany's Firewall Against the AfD Collapses as Half the Country Now Open to Voting for Them For the first time since the party entered parliament about nine years ago, the anti-democratic cordon sanitaire around the right-wing, anti-globalist Alternative für Deutschland appears to have cracked wide open. According to the latest INSA/Bild poll, fewer than half of all German voters (just 49%) now say they would “never” vote AfD—down from a staggering 75% only a few years ago, This is nothing short of a historic breakthrough. Despite years of state-funded smear campaigns, constant domestic intelligence surveillance (Verfassungsschutz), court cases, job dismissals, bank account closures, repeated violence against party members by left-globalist extremists, and even serious discussions about banning the party outright, ordinary Germans are finally seeing through the propaganda and recognizing the AfD as the only serious opposition to a failing system.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread: https://twitter.com/TPASarah/status/1994015487135514931 Sarah Adams@TPASarah Lakanwal, from Khost Province, Afghanistan, was a member of two CIA-supported units that operated under the National Directorate of Security (NDS) of the former Afghan Republic. Although these units belonged to the NDS on paper, their support and direction came directly from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). He served in Unit 01, a special military-intelligence unit responsible for the central zone provinces (Kabul, Parwan, Wardak, and Logar). His agency training in 2007 took place at CIA's Eagle Base near the Deh Sabz district of Kabul province, a few miles from Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA). Eagle Camp, originally built on an old brick factory site, became one of the CIA's most important counterterrorism training centers in the early 2000s. It trained the CIA-backed NDS units including NDS-01, NDS-02, NDS-03, NDS-04, NDS-KPF, and NDS-KSF, and also housed an ammunition depot and multiple facilities for sensitive operations. When U.S. forces left Afghanistan in 2021, Eagle Camp was among the final sites to be evacuated and demolished. It was later handed over to the Haqqani Network's suicide bomber brigade, the Badri 313. Badri 313 moved the suicide bombers through the gate areas of HKIA for the Abbey Gate attack that killed 13 of our servicemembers and approximately 170 Afghans on August 26, 2021. After completing training at Eagle Base, Lakanwal was transferred to the team supporting CIA's Kandahar Base. The site had a long militant history: it housed Mullah Mohammad Omar from 1994–2001, Osama bin Laden from 1998–2001, and later Camp Gecko from 2002–2021, which was used by the CIA and NDS-03. It served as the headquarters of the Kandahar Strike Force, which led CIA-backed counterterrorism operations in Kandahar, Uruzgan, and Zabul provinces against the Taliban, al-Qaeda, and ISIS. Lakanwal took part in counterterrorism missions alongside U.S. forces in Kandahar. After the attack yesterday on our National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, ISIS channels were the first to praise the incident largely because Lakanwal's half-brother (the son of his father's second wife, pictured left) had been a recruiter for the Islamic State–Khorasan Province (ISKP). His brother, Muawiyah Khurasani aka Hayatullah (pictured below), previously worked with Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Orakzai Agency, Pakistan, before formally joining ISKP. He was killed in a targeted operation in July 2022 in Achin district, Nangarhar province. Some ISIS members claimed he was killed by Pakistan's Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD), though that remains unconfirmed. After the fall of Kabul in 2021, Lakanwal's unit the Kandahar Protection Force and the Khost Protection Force (KPF) became prime targets for both the Haqqani Network and ISKP, which sought either to blackmail or recruit former KPF members. Recruitment involved persuading them to join voluntarily; blackmail involved coercing them through threats to their families (many were left behind), exposure of past work with the U.S., or financial pressure. Both groups targeted these units specifically because of their close relationships on U.S. soil, particularly with former CIA officers. In addition, both groups, along with al-Qaeda, saw value in impersonating these units. A couple thousand fake documents and ID cards were produced so terrorists could claim affiliation with KPF/01/02 and other special units. This allowed some individuals to fraudulently move through the U.S. evacuation process by exploiting unsuspecting volunteers and taking advantage of weak vetting procedures. We have confirmed that Lakanwal's ID (pictured right) and employment were legitimate, but a full review is recommended, as terrorists have explicitly claimed using this route as a pipeline into the U.S. We cannot keep waiting for Americans to be killed again and again before we act against the Islamist terrorists who have arrived on our soil since 2021. This can no longer fall on the shoulders of a small handful of people sounding the alarm. Every American needs to be engaged: protecting their families, their communities, and our homeland. Please prepare today! https://twitter.com/sentdefender/status/1993925420329390316?s=20 action force of the AFN who fought directly alongside U.S. Special Forces against the Taliban. In addition, Fox News is reporting that Lakanwal worked with various other government entities from the United States in Afghanistan, including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), specifically as part of the CIA-backed Kandahar Strike Force (KSF), known in most intelligence circles as NDS-03, which operated outside of U.S. and Afghan military chain-of-commands directly under the CIA, carrying out covert, clandestine, counterterrorism operations, including night raids and assassinations against the Taliban and al-Qaeda. https://twitter.com/DataRepublican/status/1993878815349854361?s=20 CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed that to Fox. “In the wake of the disastrous Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Biden administration justified bringing the alleged shooter to the United States in September 2021 due to his prior work with the U.S. government, including CIA, as a member of a partner force in Kandahar, which ended shortly following the chaotic evacuation,” CIA Director John Ratcliffe told Fox News Digital. “The individual—and so many others—should have never been allowed to come here,” Ratcliffe continued. “Our citizens and service members deserve far better than to endure the ongoing fallout from the Biden administration's catastrophic failures.” Ratcliffe added: “God bless our brave troops.” https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1994201842750837067?s=20 https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/1993882348069552531?s=20 https://twitter.com/CannConActual/status/1993693224196604379?s=20 at a colour revolution. @ColonelTowner and@xAlphaWarriorx have done a good job documenting several. We have been overwhelmingly resistant to these efforts on our homeland through the use of NGOs funding widespread protests and subsequent riots. And as President Trump cut the head off their private sector funding apparatuses (USAID, NED, etc), they are becoming desperate. So they politicized the military, subverted the Constitutional authority of the Commander in Chief, and injected themselves in a chain of command they are NOT a part of. The desperate attempt to execute their plan. This is life or death for the Deep State. https://twitter.com/CynicalPublius/status/1993886979738460646?s=20 There are three phases to a Color Revolution. It’s important to understand this so you can see how the actions of the Sedition 6 fit into this pattern. PHASE ONE: -Form underground opposition networks. -Create strong slogans and powerful information operations as recruitment tools. -Upon a certain well-coordinated signal, well-funded, well-organized mass protests “spontaneously” appear. -The armed wing of the movement conducts carefully coordinated, precision attacks on certain government infrastructure. PHASE TWO: -Discredit military, security, and law enforcement forces through information operations, coordination with friendly media (Jimmy Kimmel? Talkin’ to you, Komrade Kelly), strikes, civil disobedience, rioting, and sabotage. yOU ARE HER -Occupy civic facilities and refuse to leave until your demands are met. -Strengthen and grow a highly organized logistics support network. -Issue ultimatums to the government, threatening violent uprisings if demands are unmet. The goal is to either have the government acquiesce or engage in violent repression, in each case thereby delegitimizing itself. PHASE THREE: -Overthrow the government in a “non-violent” manner that is actually quite violent. -Open attacks on authorities, seizure of government buildings, destruction of government symbols. -Coordinate media messaging. If the government attacks, media will accuse the government of attacking “peaceful protestors.” If the government makes concessions, it will appear impotent because protestors will not compromise. -Widespread delegitimization of the government is effective in the minds of the populace; the government either willingly cedes power or is violently removed. -The once underground opposition forces’ leadership now seizes control of the government. prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form. They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it's eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone. The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst “Congressman/woman” in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how “badly” she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of Government, Military, Police, schools, etc… denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization. These goals will be pursued with the aim of achieving a major reduction in illegal and disruptive populations, including those admitted through an unauthorized and illegal Autopen approval process. Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation. Other than that, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, except those that hate, steal, murder, and destroy everything that America stands for — You won't be here for long!

With the U.S. absent from two major international summits this month, the G20 in South Africa and the COP30 in Brazil, we got an early look at what the post-American order is starting to look like. In both instances, China moved to fill the void left by the U.S., taking on a much more prominent role. Anika Patel, China analyst at the non-profit climate news site Carbon Brief, reported extensively from COP30 and noted a key difference in Beijing's messaging at the different summits in Johannesburg and Belém. In South Africa, Chinese Premier Li Qiang sought to position Beijing as an emergent global norm-setter, whereas in Brazil, the Chinese delegation explicitly rejected a leadership role. Anika joins Eric & Cobus to discuss China's complicated position at the COP30 summit and why, even though it's the world's leader in climate energy and technology, the country explicitly doesn't want the designation "climate leader."
This week, we unpack the major storylines emerging from the G20 Summit — the first ever held on African soil — where South Africa used its presidency to spotlight debt, inequality, climate, and critical minerals, even as the United States chose not to attend. With global development at an inflection point, leaders leaned into questions of how multilateralism must evolve as the global south asserts greater influence. With the humanitarian system stretched thin and displacement at record highs, we also examine the race to lead the UN Refugee Agency. A crowded field — largely European, with one notable African contender — is competing to guide the agency through a period of severe funding constraints and rising political pressures. During the conversation, we dig into what South Africa's G20 agenda signals for future global cooperation, what's at stake in the UNHCR leadership contest, and how shifting power dynamics could reshape the development landscape in the years ahead. To break down these stories and more, Devex Business Editor David Ainsworth sits down with colleagues Elissa Miolene and Colum Lynch for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series.

President Donald Trump is barring South Africa from attending next year's G20 summit in the U.S. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.
Viongozi wa dunia wamesifu mkutano wa kwanza wa G20 kufanyika Afrika kama ushindi kwa ushirikiano wa kimataifa, hata walipokuwa wakizungumzia changamoto za mabadiliko ya tabianchi, ukosefu wa usawa na vita, dhidi ya muktadha wa ushindani unaobadilika wa kidiplomasia. Kutokuwepo kwa Rais Donald Trump kumewafanya watu kujiuliza maswali kuhusu nafasi ya Marekani katika mpangilio wa dunia unaobadilika.
President Cyril Ramaphosa sê hy neem kennis van president Donald Trump van Amerika se verklaring oor Suid-Afrika se deelname aan die G20-leiersberaad in 2026. Trump sê Suid-Afrika sal nie na die beraad in Florida genooi word nie omdat die land weier om die menseregteskendings teen Afrikaners te erken of aan te spreek. Ramaphosa se woordvoerder, Vincent Magwenya, sê as stigterslid het Suid-Afrika altyd die gees van konsensus, samewerking en vennootskap wat die G20 definieer, waardeer:
Die Presidensie sê Suid-Afrika is ʼn soewereine, grondwetlike demokratiese land en is nie beïndruk dat ʼn ander land die waarde van sy deelname aan globale platforms bevraagteken nie. Die Amerikaanse president, Donald Trump, het gesê Suid-Afrika sal nie genooi word na volgende jaar se G20-leiersberaad in Florida nie omdat die regering weier om menseregteskendings teen Afrikaners te erken. President Cyril Ramaphosa se woordvoerder, Vincent Magwenya, sê Suid-Afrika sal nie ʼn ander land of sy stand in die wêreld beledig nie:

Tommy and Ben unpack Trump's rapidly changing “peace deal” to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. They explain how the plan has changed since the first draft leaked last week, the confusion over where the plan came from and why many people believe the Russians authored it, what it tells us about which Trump officials are actually driving the policy, and why Russia seems poised to reject Trump's plan even though it's wildly tilted in their favor. They also discuss the consequences of the US skipping out on two major global summits at the G20 and COP, explain why former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro says a paranoid hallucination led to his arrest, provide an update on whether the US is going to attack Venezuela, unpack Israel's recent airstrikes in Lebanon and Gaza despite ceasefire agreements, unpack the stakes of a spicy war of words between China and Japan and Chinese President Xi Jinping's call to President Trump over Taiwan, attempt to explain Candace Owens' latest insane conspiracy theory involving France, and how a new tool on X proves many MAGA influencer accounts aren't so America First after all.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

World leaders have hailed the first G20 summit in Africa as a victory for multilateralism, even as they addressed challenges of climate change, inequality and war, against a backdrop of shifting geopolitical rivalries. The notable absence of President Donald Trump has raised questions the role of the United States, in a changing world order.

ASV prezidenta Donalda Trampa tā sauktais miera plāns būtiski labots, ievērojot Ukrainas intereses. Noslēdzies G20 valstu samits Dienvidāfrikā, ko Savienotās Valstis ignorēja. Aktualitātes analizē politologs Arnis Latišenko un Latvijas Radio ārzemju ziņu žurnālists Uldis Ķezberis. Vitkofa-Dmitrijeva pakts? Divdesmit astoņu punktu Ukrainas miera plānu, kuru, kā izrādās, nu jau kādu laiku slepenībā sacerējuši Baltā nama un Kremļa pārstāvji, pagājušajā nedēļā, visdrīzāk, medijiem atklāja tā galvenais autors no Maskavas puses, Putina īpašais sūtnis ārvalstu investīciju un ekonomiskās sadarbības jautājumos Kirils Dmitrijevs. Viņa partneris no Savienoto Valstu puses bijis prezidenta Trampa īpašais sūtnis Tuvajos Austrumos un arī īpašais sūtnis miera misijām Stīvs Vitkofs. Produkts, ko šie divi vīri ar pamatīgu naudas rausēju, bet praktiski nekādu diplomātu pieredzi radījuši, izraisījis gūzmu komentāru, kuros jautājuma zīme ir teju biežāk sastopamais interpunkcijas elements. Kas domāts ar „pēdējo trīsdesmit gadu neskaidrībām” Krievijas un Ukrainas starpā, kuras līdz ar vienošanās noslēgšanu tikšot uzskatītas par atrisinātām? Kā Savienotās Valstis iedomājas būt vidutājs dialogā starp Krieviju un NATO, pašas būdamas Ziemeļatlantijas alianses dalībvalsts? Kā varētu izpausties tā 50 procentu peļņa, kuru Savienotās Valstis vēlas saņemt no Ukrainas atjaunošanas pasākumiem, kuriem tiktu izmantoti simts miljardi Krievijas iesaldēto līdzekļu? Ko autori saprot ar plānā piesaukto „nacistisko ideoloģiju un darbību”, kas tikšot „noraidīta un aizliegta” abās karojošajās valstīs? Šo jautājumu virkni varētu turpināt vēl gana ilgi. Būtiskākais, kas tūdaļ lika atskanēt skeptiskām balsīm, bija plānā paredzētā Krievijas vēl neieņemtās Donbasa daļas atdošana Maskavai, Ukrainas atteikšanās no dalības NATO un tās bruņoto spēku apjoma ierobežošana, kaut arī līdz diezgan apjomīgajiem sešsimt tūkstošiem militārpersonu. Tās ir prasības, kuru pieņemšana no Kijivas puses grūti iedomājama. Taču Donalds Tramps pagājušajā piektdienā, 21. novembrī, bija visai kategorisks – Ukrainai nāksies pieņemt šo plānu vai arī turpmāk iztikt bez Vašingtonas atbalsta. Prezidents Zelenskis, tajā pašā vakarā, vēršoties ar drūmu uzrunu pie līdzpilsoņiem, iezīmēja Ukrainas izvēli: piekāpties kapitulatīvajām Krievijas prasībām vai zaudēt savu nozīmīgāko sabiedroto – Vašingtonu. Tomēr, notikumiem attīstoties, situācijas kopainā iezīmējušies nedaudz cerīgāki toņi. Pēc sarunām Ženēvā, kurās ASV delegāciju vadīja valsts sekretārs Marko Rubio, bet Ukrainas delegāciju – prezidenta Zelenska biroja vadītājs Andrijs Jermaks, Rubio paziņoja, ka rezultāts esot ļoti nozīmīgs. Līdz pirmdienai arī no Baltā nama saimnieka retorikas bija pazudis iepriekšējais kategoriskums, tai skaitā agrākā prasība Kijivai piekrist piedāvājumam līdz 27. novembrim. 25. novembrī ierasti skaļš optimisms skanēja Vašingtonas izteikumos arī par sarunām, kuras ar Krievijas un Ukrainas pārstāvjiem Abū Dabī ved ASV armijas ministrs Deniels Driskols, savukārt šodien Maskavā būtu kārtējo reizi jāierodas Stīvam Vitkofam. Zīmīgi arī tas, ka vakar Marko Rubio pirmo reizi ar savu klātbūtni pagodinājis t.s. „Labās gribas koalīcijas” videokonferenci par Ukrainas kara un miera jautājumiem. G20 samits Johannesburgā Starpvaldību forums G20 tapa 1999. gadā ar galveno mērķi veicināt globālo finanšu stabilitāti. Kopš tā laika pamattēmu loks paplašinājies, ietverot arī tādas jomas kā planētas ekoloģija, ilgtspēja, ekonomiskā izaugsme un nevienlīdzības mazināšana. Forumā ietilpst deviņpadsmit dalībvalstis, kā arī kolektīvie dalībnieki – Eiropas Savienība un kopš pagājušā gada arī Āfrikas Savienība. Līdz ar to netieši G20 pārstāvēti vēl vairāki desmiti valstu, tai skaitā Latvija. Vienīgais kritērijs dalībai ir valsts ekonomikas apjoms, un G20 individuālo dalībvalstu bilance šobrīd aptver 85% no pasaules kopprodukta, 75 % no starptautiskās tirdzniecības, 56 % no pasaules iedzīvotāju skaita un 60 % no planētas sauszemes platības. Kopš 2008. gada dalībvalstu pārstāvji pulcējas vismaz reizi gadā, un tradicionāli valstis šeit tiek pārstāvētas valstu vai valdības galvu līmenī. Lai arī G20 nav kādu lēmumu ieviešanas mehānismu, tā rezolūcijās deklarētajam ir nenoliedzams svars un prestižs, sevišķi jau globālajā finanšu un ekonomikas jomā. Divdesmitais G20 samits pagājušās nedēļas nogalē pirmo reizi notika Āfrikā – Dienvidāfrikas Republikas lielākajā pilsētā Johannesburgā. Dienvidāfrikas kā prezidējošās valsts definētais samita kredo bija „Solidaritāte. Vienlīdzība. Ilgtspēja”. Preses visvairāk apspriestais temats ir šīgada samita ignorēšana no Savienoto Valstu puses. Oficiāli deklarētais iemesls ir nepatika pret politiku, kādu Dienvidāfrikas valdība realizē attiecībā pret eiropiešu izcelsmes pilsoņu minoritāti. Jādomā gan, ka iemesls ir arī Baltā nama saimnieka attieksme pret Dienvidāfrikas definētajām foruma prioritātēm – klimata pārmaiņu problemātiku un nevienlīdzības mazināšanu starp ekonomiski attīstītajām un attīstības valstīm. Solidarizējoties ar savu sabiedroto, samitā neieradās arī Argentīnas prezidents Havjers Milejs. Situāciju vēl pikantāku padarīja fakts, ka Savienotās Valstis ir nākamā samita rīkotājas, un Johannesburgas notikuma noslēgumā Vašingtonas pārstāvim vajadzēja simboliski pārņemt prezidentūras stafeti. Taču Dienvidāfrikas prezidents Sirils Ramafosa atteicās nodot prezidentūras regālijas kādam vēstniecības ierēdnim, kuru to saņemšanai bija gatava nosūtīt Trampa administrācija. Jautājums tikšot nokārtots vēlāk. Attieksmi pret šo situāciju samitā viskonkrētāk definēja Kanādas premjerministrs Marks Kārnijs, sakot, ka pasaule varot panākt progresu arī bez Savienoto Valstu piedalīšanās. Sagatavoja Eduards Liniņš.
On today's episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, we break down a whirlwind of corruption, chaos, and incompetence from the Trump administration: Trump's DOJ suffers a humiliating blow as federal judges toss the politically motivated cases against James Comey and Letitia James after ruling that Trump's hand-picked “prosecutor” Lindsey Halligan was unlawfully appointed; Trump lashes out by threatening to put Sen. Mark Kelly on a military trial for releasing a simple video reminding service members to honor their oath; Trump's meme coin and media stock crater, wiping out the savings of his own supporters; the administration is caught trying to pass off a Russian-drafted “Ukraine peace plan” as their own policy; the United States embarrassingly skips the G20 summit; economic turmoil deepens under Trump's erratic leadership; and much more.

Starmer, speaking en route to the G20 summit in Johannesburg, made clear that although he would not comment on Andrew's individual case, his long‐held general principle is straightforward: anyone who possesses relevant information in investigations of serious wrongdoing should step forward and give that evidence. He emphasised that cooperation with investigators is the correct stance when one is in possession of material that might help.At the same time, Starmer added that whether Andrew chooses to follow that principle is “a decision for him” — indicating that he was not issuing a direct instruction or demand, but rather expressing what he considers to be the correct ethical posture. He thereby signalled political support for the notion of accountability (irrespective of title or status) while also avoiding a more forceful or legally binding statement about Andrew's cooperation.to comment:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:UK PM Starmer says Prince Andrew should testify in Jeffrey Epstein probe | Fox News
After meeting on the sidelines of the G20 in South Africa, Prime Minister Mark Carney and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi have announced they would restart trade talks.It's a long way from where the two countries have been for the last several years. Relations blew up in 2023 after former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused agents of India's government of being involved in the murder of a Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.Then, last year, the RCMP publicly accused such agents of being involved in a campaign of homicides, extortions and threats targeting the South Asian community on Canadian soil. Recently, the director of CSIS suggested that the problem hasn't gone away.In B.C.'s Lower Mainland, over 100 reports of extortion were made in the last year.Two CBC reporters who have been covering this issue give us a closer look at what exactly has been happening on the ground in Canada, particularly when it comes to extortion, who might be behind it, and how this all connects to the larger context of a thawing relationship with India.Baneet Braich is based out of Abbotsford, B.C. And Evan Dyer is with CBC's Parliamentary bureau.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

He emphasised that cooperation with investigators is the correct stance when one is in possession of material that might help.At the same time, Starmer added that whether Andrew chooses to follow that principle is “a decision for him” — indicating that he was not issuing a direct instruction or demand, but rather expressing what he considers to be the correct ethical posture. He thereby signalled political support for the notion of accountability (irrespective of title or status) while also avoiding a more forceful or legally binding statement about Andrew's cooperation.to comment:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:UK PM Starmer says Prince Andrew should testify in Jeffrey Epstein probe | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
C dans l'air du 24 novembre 2025 - Ukraine : le plan de paix de Trump, l'inquiétude des EuropéensUne semaine décisive s'ouvre pour l'Ukraine. Donald Trump a donné à Volodymyr Zelensky jusqu'à jeudi pour se prononcer sur son plan de paix. Mais en l'état, il est jugé inacceptable par Kiev, car il reprend toutes les exigences russes — territoriales notamment —, et par les Européens, qui y voient une capitulation forcée, avec un risque pour la sécurité de l'Europe. Les négociations ont donc repris dimanche en Suisse, en présence des Américains, des Ukrainiens et des Européens. Réunis à Genève, le secrétaire d'État américain et le négociateur de Kiev, Andriï Iermak, ont salué hier en fin d'après-midi les « bons progrès » dans les pourparlers.« Je pense que nous avons probablement eu la réunion la plus productive et significative jusqu'à présent dans tout ce processus », a déclaré le chef de la diplomatie américaine, Marco Rubio, aux journalistes, sans donner plus de détails. L'un des membres de la délégation ukrainienne, Roustem Oumerov, à la tête du Conseil de sécurité ukrainien, a estimé qu'une nouvelle version du texte « reflète déjà la plupart des priorités clés » de Kiev.Tout en s'accordant avec le Premier ministre britannique Keir Starmer sur la nécessité de « travailler tous ensemble en ce moment critique afin d'instaurer une paix juste et durable », selon les mots de Downing Street, le président Trump maintient la pression sur Volodymyr Zelensky, à qui il a reproché un manque de « gratitude », alors que son propre camp se déchire sur le plan de paix. Certaines voix, notamment au sein des républicains, estiment qu'il aurait été soufflé aux Américains par les Russes. « Cette administration n'est pas responsable de cette publication sous sa forme actuelle », a ainsi déclaré le républicain Mike Rounds, élu du Dakota du Sud.Depuis l'Afrique du Sud, où il représente la France au G20, Emmanuel Macron est revenu samedi sur le plan de Donald Trump, estimant qu'« il ne peut pas y avoir de paix en Ukraine sans les Ukrainiens et le respect de leur souveraineté ». En marge de ce sommet, le chef de l'État a également réitéré sa confiance au général Fabien Mandon, qui avait déclaré mardi que « la France doit accepter de perdre des enfants », estimant qu'il avait tenu devant les maires un « discours beaucoup plus élaboré que la phrase qu'on en a sortie ». Il a par ailleurs confirmé son intention de rétablir un service militaire volontaire dans le pays, face à la montée des périls sur le continent.Opérations de déstabilisation massives, propagande à grande échelle, attaques et tentatives d'ingérence russes se multiplient dans l'Hexagone et dans toute l'Europe. Nos journalistes se sont rendus en Lituanie où, ce lundi, la cour de justice de Vilnius a rendu son verdict dans l'affaire de l'incendie, en 2024, d'un magasin Ikea et a condamné un adolescent ukrainien à 3 ans et 4 mois de détention. Son acte a été requalifié de terroriste par la justice lituanienne. Selon le procureur, la Russie avait « connaissance » de ses intentions et il a agi « dans l'intérêt d'un service de renseignement militaire étranger ».Nos experts :- Général Jean-Paul PALOMEROS - Ancien chef d'état-major de l'armée de l'air et ancien commandant suprême de la transformation de l'OTAN- Elise VINCENT - Journaliste chargée des questions de défense au Monde- Laure MANDEVILLE - Grand reporter au Figaro, autrice de L'Ukraine se lève chez Talland éditions - Pierre HAROCHE - maître de conférences en politique européenne et internationale à l'université Catholique de Lille, auteur de « Dans la forge du monde.
