Podcasts about Mali

Mali by sme sa začať seriózne rozprávať o psychologických testoch ako zásadnom predpoklade pre výkon špičkovej politickej funkcie, tvrdí prezident Slovenskej psychiatrickej spoločnosti Michal Patarák. Takíto lídri sú však obrazom tých, ktorí ich volia, upozorňuje psychiater Patarák. Prečo dovolíme aby nám vládli duševne nevyrovnaní lídri a nakoľko je slovenská spoločnosť až osudovo straumatizovaná?“Ako spoločnosť sme v regrese. Freudovsky povedané, sme v orálnej fáze vývoja. A keď je niekto v orálnej fáze vývoja, potrebuje niekoho, kto nakŕmi jeho veľké ústa. No a tak si volíme tých, čo majú silné reči, aby nás nimi nakŕmili, povedal o slovenskej spoločnosti pred viac ako tromi rokmi psychiater Michal Patarák.Na akom stupni vývoja sa nachádzame dnes a nakoľko nás pri tom limitujú naše staré a pritom stále nedoliečené a ani nespracované, spoločenské a dejinné traumy? Nakoľko sa točíme v kruhu ustavične sa opakujúcich nefunkčných vzorcov a teda i naučenej chronickej bezmocnosti a rezignácií na možnosť zmeny? Sme traumatizovaná spoločnosť holdujúca “traumatofílií”?Vládne čoraz väčšia vyprázdnenosť slov, odpojenie slov od reality i faktov ako aj útek do stále viac polarizovanej a klanovej spoločnosti. Nahrádzame si napĺňanie základných potrieb útekom k takzvanej identitárnej politike a naše individuálne ja až pričasto rozpúšťame v davoch a kolektívnom - no neraz úplne imaginárnom, “My”. Výsledkom tak potom je ďalšie a ďalšie sklamanie.Volíme si duševne nevyrovnaných, mentálne nevyzretých lídrov, do ktorých následne projektujeme vlastné frustrácie, nespracované traumy ako aj očakávania hlboko presahujúce možnosti politiky i verejného života ako takého.Z čoho pramení tá neustále rastúca polarizácia, ktorá nás ženie do hlbokých osobných frustrácií, ale už aj badateľnej agresivity? Vieme ešte oddeliť realitu od nami želaných fantázií, mýtov či fóbií a úzkostí? A dokážeme si ešte v týchto vojnách so svetom priznať, že sa môžeme mýliť?No a prečo si opakovane volíme duševne zjavne nevyrovnaných a očividne nezrelých lídrov a čo to vlastne vypovedá o nás samých? Čo si vlastne do verejného života projektujeme a máme zdravé očakávania na politiku a verejný život? No a napokon, v čom je moc davu a nakoľko dav vie rozpustiť naše individuálne ja – i s jeho hranicami dobra a zla?Ráno Nahlas s psychiatrom Michalom Patarákom. Pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.

While attention remains fixed elsewhere, jihadist groups are expanding across Africa. Bill and Caleb revisit the growing threats in Mali, Nigeria, and Somalia—and why the continent remains one of the most consequential battlegrounds in the war against Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State.

The practice of healthcare is inherently powerful, and our patients are vulnerable to our power. Though power can be abused, the righteous use of power, for the benefit of the vulnerable, is profoundly Christlike. We will explore the lessons of power which help us understand our roles, including the fundamental nature of professionalism and key kingdom strategies of healthcare missions.

Čo sa stane, keď inštitúcie poverené kontrolou moci stratia ochranu moci, ktorú kontrolujú? Stratégia je jasná: Zastrašiť, otráviť a ešte i škandalizovať či zažalovať. Cieľom je znemožnenie kontroly verejných zdrojov. Kontrolné inštitúcie štátu - NKÚ či PMÚ, varujú pre rastúcim tlakom na ich nezávislosť. Prečo vláda a jej premiér Fico teraz mlčia? A ak mlčia, kto tu teda skutočne vládne a v mene koho a čoho? Mali by dohliadať na transparentné, hospodárne ako i zákonné narábanie so spoločnými peniazmi, ako aj na férovú hospodársku súťaž, namiesto toho však čelia nevyberaným a stupňujúcim sa útokom zo strany záujmových skupín, kúpených médií či politikov ako i oligarchov v pozadí.Predsedovia NKÚ a PMÚ v spoločnom rozhovore pre Ráno Nahlas otvorene priznávajú, že vláda a ani jej premiér sa ich v boji za nezávislosť kontroly dostatočne nezastali. Podrývanie pilierov štátu však podľa nich vedie k celkovému rozkladu právneho štátu ako i demokratickej spoločnosti a tým i k strate dôvery občanov v štát a možnému nástupu vlády nekontrolovaných záujmov i moci demokraticky neriadenej oligarchie.Nezávislé kontrolné inštitúcie čelia dnes na Slovensku bezprecedentnému tlaku, ktorý ohrozuje samotné základy právneho štátu i delenia moci a jej kontroly zo strany oficiálnych štátnych inštitúcií. Kým sa vládna koalícia všemožne snaží prebrať kontrolu nad Úradom na ochranu oznamovateľov či verejnoprávnym Telerozhlasom a v kuloároch koalície zvažuje aj zásadné zmeny vo fungovaní Úradu pre verejné obstarávanie, Najvyšší kontrolný úrad a Protimonopolný úrad zostávajú - spolu s Verejným ochrancom práv či Radou pre rozpočtovú zodpovednosť, jednými z posledných bášt nezávislej kontroly.Tieto inštitúcie však namiesto rešpektu neraz čelia až agresívnej mediálnej šikane, spochybňovaniu zo strany vládnej moci ako i sofistikovanému zastrašovaniu zo strany špičkových právnych tímov najímaných kontrolovanými subjektami. Príkladom môžu byť zistenia NKÚ v oblasti zdravotníctva či rozhodnutie PMÚ o liekovom karteli s rekordnou pokutou. Prečo je nezávislosť kontrolných inštitúcií tak dôležitá pre úspech celej krajiny, kam až siaha moc a vplyv lobistov a dokážu kľúčoví strážcovia pravidiel odolať aktuálnemu až kobercovému náletu na ich nezávislosť? Ak sa vláda konečne nepostaví na stranu nezávislých kontrolných inštitúcií, ktoré majú zo zákona povinnosť dávať verejnosti odpovede na otázky či všetko, čo sa v tomto štáte deje, je v súlade zo zákonmi - ako aj s princípmi dobrého hospodára, tak tu hrozí vážna deformácia a dokonca i rozvrat demokratickej spoločnosti. Potom však ľudia prestanú dôverovať nielen týmto inštitúciám, ale aj samotnému štátu ako takému, tvrdí predseda NKÚ. Útok na nezávislé kontrolné inštitúcie je tu dnes zjavný, tvrdí Juraj Beňa. Podľa neho sú dnes na Slovensku nezávislé inštitúcie v ohrození. Našou jedinou ochranou sú občania a ich snaha nerezignovať na veci verejné. Tieto útoky zásadným spôsobom podrývajú a rozvracajú samotné piliere, na ktorých stojí naša demokratická spoločnosť, dopĺňa ho Ľubomír Andrassy.Ráno Nahlas so šéfom NKÚ Ľubomírom Andrassym a predsedom PMU Jurajom Beňom. Pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.

Sad farewells to indigenous Canadian cellist / songwriter Cris Derksen, who was killed in an automobile accident last week, and to Colombia's principal musical matriarch Totó La Momposina. The singer and bandleader died this week aged 85. She was one of my perennial favourites. I first saw her at the Edmonton Folk festival over 3 decades ago where she and her band were extremely memorable! New releases from La famille LeBlanc (NB), Celtic Colours Festival Live (both 2024 and 2025 were released this year), young Scottish fiddler Ryan Young, Mali's Fatoumata Diawara, and Dervish. Plus features on Mary Gauthier (performing June 10th at the QE Playhouse) and Canadian prairie songwriter Cara Luft, who performs this evening at The Rogue, and has a superb new CD - and a new band.

Musician Brad Barr joins us this week to share the story of the Barr Brothers' 2025 album, Let It Hiss, and talk guitar. Brad's guitar playing is uniquely shaped by world music sounds. For years now, Brad has been using a simple but effective trick to make drone/violin sounds on his guitar: Tie a piece of sewing thread on a guitar string near the bridge. The effect, inspired by the playing of Romanian violinist Nicolae Neascu of Taraf de Haidouks, is hauntingly beautiful. He explains how he came about with the technique and where he wants to take it. We also chat about his 1951 Gibson J-45, the musicians from Mali who inspired him, and so much more.   https://thebarrbrothers.com https://www.instagram.com/thebarrbrothers Join us at our 2026 Fretboard Summit in Chicago for three days of guitar demos, concerts, workshops and live podcasts with some of our favorite artists: https://fretboardsummit.org This year's Summit has over 80 luthiers and brands showcasing their new and prototype gear! 2026 speakers include Josh Scott (JHS), Mark Stutman (Folkway Music), Chris Martin IV (Martin Guitars), Fender historian Terry Foster, and many other fretted instrument luminaries.  Subscribe to the Fretboard Journal's quarterly print magazine: https://shop.fretboardjournal.com/products/fretboard-journal-annual-subscription We are brought to you by Peghead Nation: https://www.pegheadnation.com  (Get your first month free or $20 off any annual subscription with the promo code FRETBOARD at checkout).

Ghost returns from a week off and opens with an unplanned ferry pass by Epstein Island before diving into the week's biggest stories. Trump and Nigeria jointly eliminated ISIS's global second-in-command Abu Balal al-Manouki, the man behind the 2014 Chibok schoolgirl kidnappings. Ghost reframes the operation not as a threat to the Alliance of Sahel States but as Trump cleaning up a deep state creation, and walks through how US aid money routed through Ukraine funded ISIS proxies in Mali. A rare Ebola strain has erupted in Congo's Ituri province with the WHO declaring a public health emergency, and Ghost ties it directly to the ongoing rare earth mineral conflict and the deep state's losing battle for control of Eastern Congo. Trump publicly asked MBS, MBZ, and Qatar's emir to pause Iran strikes, confirming the Arabs never wanted war. Trump met Xi in China, Putin heads to Beijing for his 25th visit, and a Saudi/Pakistan defense pact is expanding toward Qatar and Turkey. Iraq and Pakistan signed bilateral energy transit deals with Iran, and Ghost maps out a potential Iran-Pakistan-India pipeline corridor. The episode closes with a deep dive into Alex Saab's deportation from Venezuela and PDVSA's own 2015 financial documents showing the Venezuelan government as the original victim of deep state-linked corruption.

In late April, an unlikely alliance of Islamist militants and separatists from the Tuareg ethnic group launched a series of surprise attacks against government forces in Mali. They attacked the capital, Bamako; killed Mali's defense minister; and even evicted Russian forces from a key city they were defending on behalf of the government of Mali. Mali has been beset by instability since a 2012 coup, a revolt by separatist groups in the north of the country, and the establishment of several jihadist groups. In this episode, Norman Sempijja, an associate professor of governance, economics, and social sciences at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University in Morocco, Norman Sempijja, explains what this new alliance of jihadists and separatists suggests about the trajectory of the crisis in Mali — and what the international community can do to end this spiraling conflict.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 10 avril 2026.Avec cette semaine :Pierre Gastineau, journaliste grand reporter, spécialiste du renseignement, co-auteur avec Antoine Izambard de Les espions du président.Marc-Olivier Padis, directeur des études de la fondation Terra Nova.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.LES ESPIONS DU PRÉSIDENTPierre Gastineau, vous êtes journaliste grand reporter au sein d'Intelligence Onlineet co-auteur, avec Antoine Izambard, de Les Espions du Président (2025), ouvrage dans lequel vous analysez les évolutions récentes du renseignement français.Comparé à ses prédécesseurs tels que François Mitterrand, Jacques Chirac ou Nicolas Sarkozy, Emmanuel Macron apparaît comme « le président qui aimait les espions ». Dès son arrivée au pouvoir en 2017, il engage une transformation profonde des services de renseignement : augmentation du budget (de 2,4 à 3,1 milliards d'euros), hausse des effectifs (+13 %, dont +20% à la DGSI) et renforcement de la coordination autour de la CNRLT et du Conseil de défense, devenu un véritable centre de pilotage stratégique à l'Élysée.Cette montée en puissance s'accompagne toutefois d'une forte personnalisation du système, illustrée par le recours à des profils soigneusement sélectionnés, comme celui de Paul Soler, issus de la haute administration et intervenant directement au nom du président sur le terrain, au détriment des canaux diplomatiques traditionnels.Le paradoxe que vous soulignez est frappant : Emmanuel Macron apparaît à la fois comme le président de la Ve République le plus investi dans le renseignement et comme celui dont le système a éprouvé des difficultés à prévoir certains chocs géopolitiques. L'invasion de l'Ukraine en février 2022 révèle un déficit d'anticipation et conduit à un durcissement vis-à-vis de la Russie ; en Afrique, le manque de prévision et la gestion insuffisante des coups d'État au Mali, au Burkina Faso et au Niger traduisent un recul de l'influence française ; enfin, sur le plan intérieur, l'élargissement des missions de la DGSI — avec près de 4.000 mesures d'interception liées notamment aux Gilets jaunes et à certaines mobilisations écologistes, parfois qualifiées d'«écoterrorisme » — interroge l'équilibre entre sécurité et libertés publiques.Au-delà de ces différents théâtres, vous montrez que le renseignement se trouve désormais au cœur des recompositions géopolitiques. La menace iranienne, classée au niveau “P1”, combine terrorisme, cyberattaques et pressions diplomatiques. La guerre en Ukraine transforme durablement les méthodes, désormais plus ouvertes, technologiques et intégrées aux stratégies d'influence. Dans le même temps, la France demeure confrontée à une dépendance structurelle aux capacités américaines — les « enablers » — en dépit de son ambition d'autonomie stratégique, tandis que l'Europe, notamment l'Allemagne, cherche à renforcer ses propres dispositifs.Ainsi, à travers votre ouvrage, vous dressez le portrait d'un renseignement français à la fois renforcé, centralisé et politisé, mais également confronté à des défis majeurs d'anticipation, de coordination et d'adaptation dans un environnement international de plus en plus instable.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

Au Mali, la situation sécuritaire se dégrade. Des bus de transports qui violaient le blocus décrété par les jihadistes ont été brûlés. C'est dans ce contexte qu'un proche du chef religieux le plus influent du Mali, le chérif de Nioro, lance à tous les acteurs un appel au dialogue.

En première partie, retour sur le sommet Afrique-France qui s'est tenu cette semaine au Kenya, pays anglophone. Une manière pour Paris de regarder vers l'Afrique de l'Est. Tout un symbole pour un sommet baptisé « En avant l'Afrique », Afrika Forward. Le second reportage de cette émission nous emmène en Chine. Pays vieillissant, comment y coule-t-on de vieux jours entre traditions et technologies.  Du pré carré au gagnant-gagnant: la nouvelle stratégie française en Afrique Quel est l'état de la relation entre la France et les pays africains ? Alors que la sévère crispation au Mali nous a renvoyés au repli français dans les pays de la zone sahélienne. Cette relation a-t-elle été réinventée comme le promettait le président Macron au début de son premier mandat ? Le pré carré français dans les anciennes colonies disparait. Place à une logique d'intérêts mutuels recentrée sur les échanges économiques. Et Paris de se tourner vers l'Afrique de l'Est, comme le symbolise le sommet Africa Forward organisé à Nairobi par la France et le Kenya. Dans Grand reportage, un diaporama sur cette relation en pleine mutation. Cameroun, Côte d'Ivoire, Sénégal… et tout d'abord le port de Freetown en Sierra Leone, pays anglophone où la France cherche à investir. Un Grand reportage de Charlotte Cosset, Richard Onanena, Abdoul Aziz Diallo et Juliette Dubois, récit Alexis Bédu qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix. Vieillir en Chine : entre robots, débrouille et nouvelles solidarités En Chine, la population vieillit à grande vitesse. D'ici quelques années, les plus de 60 ans seront vraiment nombreux. Et parallèlement, le nombre d'actifs diminue. Dans les grandes villes, une question devient centrale : comment vieillir, quand les enfants sont moins nombreux, quand ils vivent trop loin… et que physiquement, le corps et l'esprit donnent des signes de faiblesse. Les seniors chinois vivent donc entre activités traditionnelles et assistance, parfois à la pointe de la modernité. Un Grand reportage à Pékin et à Chengdu Cléa Broadhurst et Chi Xiangyuande. À suivre, un entretien entre Cléa Broadhurst et Jacques Allix.

Le mercure atteint parfois les 47 degrés au Mali, au Niger et au Burkina Faso, rapporte La Nouvelle Tribune. L'agence nationale de la météorologie du Mali prévoit que ces températures dureront au moins jusqu'à lundi prochain, prévient le journal qui rappelle au passage les recommandations à adopter : éviter l'exposition prolongée au soleil, porter des vêtements adaptés ou encore la vigilance pour les personnes les plus fragiles. Ces températures élevées « perturbent plusieurs activités » à Bankass dans la région malienne de Bandiagara, s'inquiète Bamada.net. Le site fait état d'une chaleur « particulièrement étouffante », « des charretiers affirment avoir été contraints de ralentir, voire d'interrompre leurs activités ». Pour Tchadinfos, cela ne fait aucun doute : le réchauffement climatique est la cause de ces phénomènes climatiques extrêmes. Et ils n'ont pas que des conséquences sur les températures. Le site pointe une étude d'une université californienne qui montre que la chaleur fait vieillir plus vite. « Dans les régions les plus exposées, peut-on lire, cela pourrait représenter jusqu'à 14 mois de vieillissement supplémentaire ». « Comprendre et atténuer ces effets apparaît désormais comme une priorité sanitaire mondiale », poursuit Tchadinfos.

Le président gabonais, nous dit le site, entend « nouer des partenariats » dans plusieurs secteurs, « infrastructures, énergie, agro-industrie, numérique et transformation locale des ressources naturelles ». « Un message calibré pour des interlocuteurs qui attendent du Gabon des signaux clairs, au-delà des discours », poursuit Gabonreview. « Un agenda d'affaires chargé », titre pour sa part Guinéematin à Conakry. Mamadi Doumbouya a fait le voyage accompagné d'une importante délégation. C'est même « le premier déplacement international d'envergure du Guinea Development Board (GDB), créé par décret présidentiel en mars dernier », nous dit le site. L'Africa CEO Forum est coorganisé par Jeune Afrique. Le magazine raconte le discours, hier à la tribune, de Paul Kagamé. Le président rwandais a dénoncé « le double discours des grandes puissances ». « D'un côté, ils viennent nous donner des leçons sur les droits humains et de l'autre, ils viennent nous prendre nos minerais. On ne doit plus attendre de se faire arnaquer » a-t-il lancé devant un public hilare, écrit le magazine. Retour sur le voyage du président taïwanais en Eswatini C'était il y a deux semaines, mais le New York Times dévoile les coulisses de ce déplacement dans une longue enquête, « au cœur de la mission secrète visant à transporter le président taïwanais en Afrique ». Le quotidien raconte les tentatives de la Chine pour tuer ce déplacement dans l'œuf. L'Eswatini est le seul pays africain à reconnaitre Taïwan, et pour se rendre dans le petit royaume enclavé d'Afrique australe, il faut traverser l'espace aérien des alliés de Pékin. « Un jeu du chat et de la souris à haute altitude », commente le New York Times. Les Seychelles, Maurice et Madagascar ont retiré l'autorisation de survol de leur espace aérien. Pour contrer cette interdiction, rapporte le journal, Lai Ching-Te et son équipe ont emprunté l'Airbus A340 du roi Mswati III. « Son voyage était un secret pour presque tout le monde à Taïwan, y compris au sein du gouvernement », explique le New York Times. « Afin d'alléger l'appareil et d'économiser du carburant, peut-on lire, les passagers n'étaient autorisés qu'à emporter des bagages cabine. » « L'avion a survolé l'espace aérien de Madagascar et de l'île Maurice ; selon les autorités taïwanaises, aucun des deux pays ne semblait savoir qui se trouvait à bord. » À lire aussiEswatini: le président taïwanais en visite, après un premier rendez-vous reporté sous la pression chinoise

Our favorite military analyst, Sim Tack, returns to the pod to assess three different conflicts reshaping global security. In Ukraine, territorial gains are tactical, not strategic; Russian economic endurance remains the real variable. In Iran, a degraded military has reached a stalemate the U.S. and Israel cannot break without regime change. And in Mali, a jihadist advance is threatening to create a new territorial caliphate... with Russia's failed security guarantee quietly accelerating the collapse.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Welcome(01:08) - Sim is Back(01:56) - Is the World Overwhelming?(04:23) - AI Briefings and Limits(06:10) - Drones and War Evolution(09:44) - Top Conflicts to Watch(11:59) - Ukraine Strikes and Oil Leverage(13:53) - Reality Check on Initiative(18:26) - Zelensky Endgame Options(23:28) - Russia Staying Power and Economy(26:15) - NATO Threat Question(26:46) - Russia Threat Timeline(27:53) - Can Russia Fight NATO(29:30) - Satellite Buildup Reality(30:23) - Europe Rearms Narrative(35:11) - Asymmetric Threat Debate(37:06) - Drones Cyber Article Five(41:11) - US Munitions Bottleneck(47:39) - Iran Stalemate Logic(50:27) - How Neutered Is Iran(53:46) - Mali Jihadist Surge(57:17) - Closing Thanks Outro--Sim's Work:AllSource Analysis: https://allsourceanalysis.com/work/sim-tack/Linkedin: https://be.linkedin.com/in/sim-tack-081b313b--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

Les journalistes et experts de RFI répondent également à vos questions sur les conséquences de la guerre en Iran sur les baleines en Afrique du Sud, le rejet du Sénat en France d'une proposition de loi sur l'aide à mourir et la déportation forcée d'enfants ukrainiens vers la Russie.  Mali : l'alliance entre le Jnim et le FLA peut-elle tenir ?  Les attaques coordonnées du 25 avril menées par les jihadistes du Groupe de soutien à l'islam et aux musulmans (Jnim), affilié à al-Qaïda, et les rebelles touaregs du Front de libération de l'Azawad (FLA) ont fragilisé la situation sécuritaire au Mali. Cette alliance a permis au FLA de s'emparer à nouveau de la ville de Kidal, au nord du Mali, et aux Jnim d'imposer un blocus autour de la capitale, Bamako. Alors que les jihadistes cherchent à instaurer un ordre islamique sur l'ensemble du territoire et que les indépendantistes revendiquent l'autodétermination du peuple de l'Azawad, comment expliquer un tel rapprochement ? Sachant que leurs revendications sont différentes, cette alliance peut-elle perdurer ? Avec David Baché, journaliste au service Afrique de RFI. Détroit d'Ormuz : pourquoi le blocus menace les baleines en Afrique du Sud ? Au large de l'Afrique du Sud, à des milliers de kilomètres du détroit d'Ormuz, théâtre des tensions entre l'Iran et la coalition israélo-américaine, les baleines sont aussi victimes de la guerre. Selon un rapport scientifique présenté devant la Commission baleinière internationale (IWC), les risques de collision entre navires et cétacés « ont considérablement augmenté » depuis le début du conflit au Moyen-Orient. Comment la guerre peut-elle avoir un impact sur l'écosystème marin au cap de Bonne-Espérance ? Des solutions sont-elles envisagées pour limiter le phénomène ?  Avec Juliette Pietraszewski, journaliste au service environnement-climat de RFI. France : pourquoi le Sénat rejette encore la loi sur l'aide à mourir ?   En France, la proposition de loi pour créer un « droit à l'aide à mouri » subit un nouveau revers. Dans la nuit du lundi 11 au mardi 12 mai, à 151 voix contre 118, les sénateurs ont rejeté la « clé de voûte » du texte : l'article 2 qui évoquait le principe d'un geste létal en fin de vie. Après le rejet de cet article, le Sénat a préféré supprimer tous les autres articles un par un. C'est la deuxième fois que la chambre haute du Parlement français s'oppose à ce texte. Pourquoi cette proposition de loi pose-t-elle problème aux sénateurs alors qu'elle a été adoptée par deux fois à l'Assemblée nationale ? Désormais, que peut-il se passer ? Avec Charlotte Urien-Tomaka, journaliste au service politique de RFI.  Guerre en Ukraine : quel sort pour les enfants ukrainiens déportés en Russie ?   « De toutes les horreurs infligées par la guerre en Russie, la déportation et le transfert forcé d'enfants ukrainiens constituent l'un des pires crimes », a déclaré la cheffe de la diplomatie européenne, Kaja Kallas, après une réunion des ministres des Affaires étrangères européens. À l'issue de ces discussions, les 27 ont adopté des sanctions contre seize personnes et sept entités russes accusées d'avoir enlevé des milliers d'enfants ukrainiens pour les envoyer en Russie. Comment le transfert forcé de ces enfants est-il organisé ? Quelles sont leurs conditions de vie sur le territoire russe ? Avec Ulrich Bounat, analyste géopolitique, chercheur associé chez Euro Créative.

In this second episode of our season-long exploration into "The Wallet," Peterson Toscano and Diana Yañez dive into Relational Finance. This concept challenges the traditional divide between "financial experts" and "spiritual seekers." Taking the Quaker theology of the "priesthood of all believers" and applying it to economics, we explore how taking personal responsibility for our money—and our institutional assets—leads to deeper integrity and more equitable power-sharing. From the boardrooms of major corporations to micro-grant partnerships in Kenya and Sierra Leone, we look at what happens when we stop letting others stand between us and the truth of our financial impact. In This Episode The Unmediated Truth: Jeff Perkins reflects on the Quaker commitment to taking responsibility for one's beliefs, even when it comes to the "taboo" topic of money. Decolonizing Power: Traci Hjelt Sullivan discusses how Right Sharing of World Resources is shifting power from Western offices to local coordinators, moving from "saviorism" to genuine partnership. Ownership as a Tool: We explore how holding onto shares in a company (rather than just divesting) can be a powerful way to "hold the door open" for justice in corporate boardrooms. Our Guests Jeff Perkins Jeff is the former executive director of Friends Fiduciary. He is a member of Chestnut Hill Friends Meeting in Philadelphia and lives in Philadelphia with his husband. His journey to Quakerism began at a nuclear test site protest in the 1980s, where the integrity of Quaker activists inspired his lifelong commitment to faith-led action. Traci Hjelt Sullivan Traci is the executive director of Right Sharing of World Resources (RSWR). With decades of non-profit management experience, including roles at Pendle Hill and Friends General Conference, Traci brings a global perspective to her work, having lived or worked in Ethiopia, Zambia, Botswana, Kenya, and beyond. She is a member of Green Street Meeting in Philadelphia. Nathan Kleban Nathan is the program and advancement associate at RSWR. His background includes serving as an environmental volunteer with the Peace Corps in Mali and working with the Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP). He currently lives in Iowa City, Iowa. Amy Carr Amy is the senior shareholder advocate at Friends Fiduciary. She utilizes her background in information science and data research to engage companies on ESG (environmental, social, and governance) issues, bringing Quaker values to the forefront of corporate dialogue.

For years, America's counterterrorism focus centered on the Middle East. But according to the top U.S. military commander overseeing Africa, ISIS and al Qaeda have set up new headquarters on the continent.In this special conversation recorded live at the McCain Institute Sedona Forum, Mosheh sits down with General Dagvin Anderson, head of AFRICOM, who warns that Africa has become the new “epicenter of global terrorism.”The discussion explores the growing presence of ISIS and Al-Qaeda affiliates across the continent, including fears that an Al-Qaeda-linked group could soon seize control of Mali's capital. General Anderson explains how terror groups are recruiting young people through jobs and economic opportunity before ideology, why Somalia has become one of America's most active counterterrorism battlefields, and what worries him most about the current intelligence gaps in the region.Mosheh and General Anderson also dive into the larger geopolitical battle unfolding across Africa — from Russia extracting gold and uranium to fund its war effort, to China expanding influence through infrastructure projects, media campaigns, and journalist training programs.The conversation also covers critical minerals, information warfare, America's global standing, and why the future of Africa could shape the future of global security and U.S. national interests for decades to come. Mosheh Oinounou (⁠⁠⁠@mosheh⁠⁠⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.

10/16: Gregory Copley examines the instability of Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso after their withdrawal from ECOWAS. The region faces increasing jihadist threats and government paranoia regarding French interference. Meanwhile, Chinese influence in Africa is weakening as Russia's African Corps remains active but limited.1920 LABOR DAY JAPAN

SCHEDULE THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 5-5-2026.1920 HONG KONG1/16: Liz Peek discusses the strong American economy, noting low unemployment and an AI-driven boom despite oil price spikes from the Iran war. While concerns about plummeted savings exist, record stock market highs and a robust labor market sustain growth. Peek also addresses political resistance to AI development.2/16: Liz Peek reflects on the successful American visit of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, noting the public's rehabilitated view of the royal couple. Despite past controversies, their visit reaffirmed the special relationship, and American affection for the British monarchy remains strong, reflected in high television ratings.3/16: Grant Newsham explores Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's diplomatic mission to Vietnam and Australia to counter Chinese aggression. Takaichi is shifting Japan from purely economic influence toward a professional military posture. This approach is welcomed by Southeast Asian nations facing maritime bullying from China.4/16: Rich Goldberg outlines a "blockade plus" strategy to bankrupt the Iranian regime by cutting off oil and petrochemical revenues. This economic pressure aims to spark internal fractures and popular uprisings. Goldberg also advocates for expanding Middle Eastern pipeline infrastructure to bypass the Strait of Hormuz permanently.5/16: Ivana Stradner reports that Vladimir Putin is living in a bunker, fearing a coup as he loses on the battlefield. To maintain control, the Kremlin has implemented severe internet blackouts and banned Western social media. Stradnersuggests the West should provide Russians with more VPN systems.6/16: Ivana Stradner discusses how American jazz symbolizes freedom and individualism, making it a threat to repressive regimes. Historically used as a "non-nuclear weapon" during the Cold War, jazz's improvisational nature counters state propaganda. She argues the U.S. should revitalize this tool to reach those lacking freedom.7/16: Hussein Abdul-Hussein introduces Ali al-Zaydi, a political newcomer nominated for Iraqi Prime Minister by the Shia coordination framework. Al-Zaydi, a wealthy contractor, follows a pattern where "no-ones" are chosen when powerful factions cannot agree. Iraqi voters are increasingly favoring patriots over pro-Iran candidates.8/16: Hussein Abdul-Hussein explains that the United States remains the biggest player in Iraq, wielding significant influence over leadership choices and economic policy. Washington is currently pushing to move Iraq from a cash-based to a digital economy to prevent Iran from siphoning funds and to ensure financial transparency.9/16: Gregory Copley highlights a major defense contract between Japan and Australia, involving the sale of Mogami-class frigates. The two nations are cooperating to bypass China's monopoly on rare earth processing and energy supply chains. This partnership builds on a long history of strategic trade.10/16: Gregory Copley examines the instability of Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso after their withdrawal from ECOWAS. The region faces increasing jihadist threats and government paranoia regarding French interference. Meanwhile, Chinese influence in Africa is weakening as Russia's African Corps remains active but limited.11/16: Gregory Copley reports that Iran is effectively under a military government led by General Vahidi, as Ayatollah Khamenei remains incapacitated. Simultaneously, China's Xi Jinping faces internal strife and energy shortages, while India maintains a strategic, non-aligned posture between the United States, Russia, and the People's Republic of China.12/16: King Charles III visited the United States and Bermuda, receiving bipartisan acclaim in Congress for his defense of constitutional checks and balances. Despite health concerns, the King successfully revitalized the special relationship and was lauded by a Bermuda rabbi for his family's historical protection of Jews. Gregory Copley reports.13/16: Thaddeus McCotter analyzes how high gasoline prices and economic disruptions from the Iran conflict influence midterm elections. He notes that while minority parties usually have messaging advantages, the lack of clear strategic military objectives and persistent inflation create significant uncertainty for American voters and global markets.14/16: Thaddeus McCotter argues that while Wall Street performs well, the average worker remains anxious about healthcare, interest rates, and student loans. He describes the current economy as fragile and warns that failing to address these underlying domestic anxieties could lead to political repercussions during the midterm elections.15/16: Jack Burnham details the rare extradition and indictment of a Chinese national, Mr. U, for state-sponsored hacking. Operating under "Silk Typhoon," the group targeted American COVID-19 research. This operation demonstrates China's strategy of using private actors to steal scientific excellence and prepare the digital battlefield.16/16: Jack Burnham discusses how Chinese commercial satellite firms provide the IRGC with high-resolution imagery to direct attacks against American assets. He differentiates this from the state-led surveillance of the Chinese balloon incident over U.S. missile silos, emphasizing China's broad campaign to disrupt American societal morale.

2/16: Bill Roggio explains that al-Qaeda is expanding across Mali and Somalia, exploiting weak governments to build a caliphate. Both al-Qaeda and ISIS are partitioning territories and increasingly threatening regional capitals.

STREAM MAKING OF JBS, FEATURING BILL ROGGIO AND GORDON CHANG, 5-4-261664The provided text is a transcript from the John Batchelor Show, detailing a complex geopolitical crisis involving the United States, Iran, and China. Central to the discussion is a reported confrontation in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iranian media claimed to have struck a U.S. Navy frigate with missiles. While U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM)denies any ships were hit, the incident coincides with Project Freedom, a Trump administration initiative to escort stranded vessels through the blockade. Beyond the naval standoff, the sources address a severe terror threat in Londonlinked to Iranian proxies and the rising dominance of drone warfare. The dialogue further explores Al-Qaeda's expanding influence in Africa and the political instability currently facing Mali and Somalia. Finally, experts examine the economic consequences of these conflicts, noting significant growth downgrades for Asian economies and the strategic maneuvering of China as it balances its support for Iran with vital trade interests.

SCHEDULE JBS, 5-4-26PARTHIA, PERSIA, IRAN1/16: Bill Roggio discusses Project Freedom, a mission to escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz. The IRGCclaimed to hit a US warship, but the Navy reported no ships were struck.2/16: Bill Roggio explains that al-Qaeda is expanding across Mali and Somalia, exploiting weak governments to build a caliphate. Both al-Qaeda and ISIS are partitioning territories and increasingly threatening regional capitals.3/16: Rick Fisher and Gordon Chang discuss the Artemis mission and China's competitive drive to establish a permanent moon base. Both nations are also developing combat satellites and weapon systems for use in lunar orbit.4/16: Alan Tonelson and Gordon Chang examine how the Iran war drives inflation and damages Asian manufacturing. China continues to flood markets with subsidized exports while using lawfare and harassment against smaller nations like Panama.5/16: Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotter report on escalating violence in the Gulf, including the sinking of IRGC boats. They also discuss Mahmoud Abbas's attempt to install his son, Yasser Abbas, as his political successor.6/16: Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotter warn that Iran is running out of oil storage, potentially forcing a production halt. Hoenlein characterizes the recent Gaza flotilla as a failed PR stunt carrying no aid.7/16: David Daoud argues the ceasefire restricts Israel while allowing Hezbollah to rearm. Hezbollah is exploiting cheap FPV drones to harass Israeli forces, utilizing a low-tech method that lacks an effective counter.8/16: David Daoud explains the IDF was caught off guard by Hezbollah's innovative use of fiber-optic and FPV drones. Despite these threats, the Israeli public largely favors continuing military operations to secure borders.9/16: Bridget Toomey and Bill Roggio discuss Ali Al-Zadei, a businessman elevated to Iraqi Prime Minister with Iranian support. While endorsed by Trump, his background in illicit finance raises concerns about ongoing militia influence.10/16: Gordon Chang analyzes how China supports Iran while negotiating trade with the US. This conflict creates economic instability, including rising inflation and slower growth across major Asian trading economies.11/16: Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa report that Delcy Rodríguez is avoiding elections in Venezuela. Araújo discusses Lula's weakening power in Brazil and judicial shifts that could lead to Jair Bolsonaro's release.12/16: Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa highlight Cuba's collapse as Russian and Venezuelan oil supplies vanish.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First up—new signs Iran's economy is entering what some analysts are calling a “death spiral,” as soaring inflation, mass unemployment, and a collapsing currency pile pressure on the regime amid war and blockade. Later in the show—Trump and Putin float a temporary cease-fire in Ukraine, even as Kyiv launches a long-range strike deep inside Russian territory, raising fresh doubts about whether any pause in fighting can hold. Plus—as war intensifies in Mali, analysts are warning jihadist groups could be on the verge of carving out an African caliphate, as militants push closer to the capital and security forces struggle to hold the line. And in today's Back of the Brief—the Pentagon reveals the cost of U.S. military operations in Iran has already reached 25 billion dollars, with that number expected to climb as the conflict continues.

The US-Iran ceasefire is holding, but the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, the global economy is teetering on the edge of disaster, and America's precision weapons stockpile is badly depleted after repeated conflicts with Iran, with experts warning that it could have grave consequences for US readiness in the event of a conflict with China. Meanwhile, King Charles becomes the first British king to address Congress as the UK tries to use a royal charm offensive to paper over major differences on Iran, Mali's military government teeters on collapse after coordinated terrorist attacks rock the country and drive out Russian mercenaries, and the CIA's covert operations in Mexico blow up into a sovereignty crisis for President Sheinbaum.

Also: The former FBI director, James Comey, has been charged with threatening the life of President Trump in a picture he posted on social media last year; Mali's ruler appears in public for the first time since insurgents tried to seize power; and we look at the impact of lab-grown diamonds on the wider diamond industry.
