Podcasts about Metropol

Stát Pará na severu Brazílie dal název plodu, který v Česku známe jako para ořechy. Metropolí tohoto regionu je Belém, kterému se přezdívá „brána do Amazonie“ a někdy také „město mangovníků“. Ty v něm totiž lemují všechny hlavní bulváry a místní tak mají kdykoli po ruce šťavnatou svačinu. Někteří toho využívají i k poměrně snadnému přivýdělku.Všechny díly podcastu Zápisník zahraničních zpravodajů můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

La nomination de Stefano Beltrame, nouvel ambassadeur italien à Moscou, a fait du bruit lorsqu'elle a été annoncée. Ce diplomate a la particularité d'être un proche de Matteo Salvini. Or, le dirigeant de la Ligue du Nord, allié de Georgia Meloni, n'a jamais caché son admiration pour la Russie de Vladimir Poutine. Stefano Beltrame était auparavant ambassadeur à Vienne en Autriche et il va désormais bientôt présenter ses lettres de créance à Vladimir Poutine. Cette nomination n'a pas manqué de susciter la controverse à Rome. Pourtant, le diplomate de 64  ans peut se targuer d'un parcours exemplaire et d'un CV justifiant à lui seul cette nomination.  « C'est un diplomate chevronné qui a eu un parcours classique, souligne Guiseppe Bettoni, professeur de géopolitique à l'Université de Rome Unitelma Sapienza. Il a eu sa licence en sciences politiques puis il a suivi une formation au ministère des Affaires étrangères et a intégré le corps diplomatique en 1991. Depuis, il a franchi chaque étape requise pour un diplomate italien. » Il est nommé à diverses fonctions au Moyen-Orient, en Europe et en Asie. Un parcours exemplaire qui le conduira au poste d'ambassadeur à Vienne, puis à Moscou. Parallèlement, il se rapproche de la Ligue du Nord en devenant le conseiller de l'un des hommes forts du parti italien, l'inamovible président de la région de Vénétie Luca Zaia. « Stefano Beltrame est lui-même originaire d'une toute petite commune du département de Vérone, et son entrée dans le giron de la Ligue s'est faite par échelons, jusqu'au niveau gouvernemental, puisqu'il finit par devenir le conseiller diplomatique de Matteo Salvini en 2018-2019 », poursuit Guiseppe Bettoni.  À lire aussiL'Italie adopte la très controversée loi sécurité, l'opposition dénonce une dangereuse dérive autoritaire L'affaire du « Metropol » de Moscou En 2018, Matteo Salvini, le tonitruant dirigeant de la Ligue du Nord, est alors au faîte de sa popularité. Il occupe le poste de ministre de l'Intérieur dans le premier gouvernement de Giuseppe Conte. Stefano Beltrame va organiser plusieurs déplacements pour le ministre, dont l'un à Moscou, qui va rester dans les mémoires en Italie en raison de l'affaire « du Métropol », du nom du célèbre hôtel situé non loin de la place Rouge. « Un rendez-vous a eu lieu entre trois conseillers de Salvini et des pseudo-entrepreneurs russes, raconte Guiseppe Bettoni. En fait, on leur proposait un financement illégal de la Ligue du Nord, par le biais de la vente de pétrole. L'affaire s'est terminée par un non-lieu parce que la transaction n'a pas abouti, mais les magistrats ont bien reconnu qu'il y avait eu négociation et c'est une tache qui n'a pas disparu. » Le dossier a été classé par la justice italienne, mais il reste les nombreuses déclarations pro-russes de Matteo Salvini. De la justification de l'annexion de la Crimée en 2014 aux lauriers tressés en 2019 à Vladimir Poutine, qu'il avait décrit comme « le meilleur homme d'État actuellement sur terre ». Depuis l'invasion à grande échelle de l'Ukraine, Matteo Salvini a quelque peu nuancé ces louanges, mais il reste extrêmement critique de la ligne pro-Ukraine adoptée par Georgia Meloni. Dans ces conditions, pourquoi la dirigeante italienne a-t-elle accepté de nommer à Moscou un ambassadeur proche de Matteo Salvini ? Pour le chercheur italien Lorenzo Castellani, de l'Université libre Guido Carli à Rome, il ne s'agit pas d'une inflexion diplomatique de la part de Georgia Meloni, mais plutôt d'un accord pragmatique avec un allié dont elle dépend politiquement. « Georgia Meloni doit payer le prix pour gouverner avec Salvini, et elle le paie sur certaines réformes nationales ou nominations, mais pas sur les questions fondamentales, telles que la politique étrangère ou les relations avec l'Europe, analyse-t-il. Je pense qu'avec son ministre des Affaires Étrangères, Antonio Tajani, elle a décidé d'accorder à Salvini cette nomination et le droit de faire des déclarations sur la Russie, tout en réaffirmant leur emprise sur la politique étrangère et sur le soutien à l'Ukraine. » À lire aussiItalie: comment la leader d'extrême droite Giorgia Meloni s'est imposée sur la scène européenne   Une nomination symbolique Certes, Georgia Meloni s'est, elle aussi, montrée élogieuse à l'égard de Vladimir Poutine avant d'arriver au pouvoir. Mais, contrairement à son allié de la Ligue du Nord, elle a adopté une position très claire à partir de février 2022 et de l'invasion à grande échelle de l'Ukraine, en rangeant son pays dans le camp des alliés de Kiev. « Giorgia Meloni n'a jamais voulu devenir la Viktor Orban de la Méditerranée et n'imagine pas une seconde le devenir, pointe le chercheur Guiseppe Bettoni. Être souverainiste et anti-immigration ne veut pas forcément dire devenir pro-Poutine et anti-Zelensky. Sur ce point fondamental, je ne pense vraiment pas qu'il y aura du changement. » Le nouvel ambassadeur italien à Moscou n'aura donc que peu de marge de manœuvre pour infléchir la position italienne. Bien que symbolique, sa nomination peut être considérée cependant comme une victoire pour Matteo Salvini, car le dirigeant de la Ligue du Nord continue de prôner et d'espérer une reprise du dialogue avec Vladimir Poutine. « Salvini table sur un processus de paix qui pourrait aboutir d'ici trois à quatre ans, décrypte de son côté Lorenzo Castellani. Et lorsque ce jour viendra, ce sera une excellente chose pour lui d'avoir un homme à lui à Moscou. »  À lire aussiItalie : Meloni veut une défense européenne plus forte, mais juge « inefficace » l'envoi de soldats en Ukraine

23 Nisan‘da meydana gelen sarsıntı, İstanbulluları tedirgin etti. Metropol daha büyük bir depreme hazır mı? Von Aydin Isik.

Visste du att Helsingfors en gång var en liten fiskeby innan den växte till Finlands pulserande huvudstad? I det här avsnittet djupdyker vi i stadens dramatiska historia – från svenska rötter och ryska erövringar till självständighet och innovation. Henrik Meinander, professor i historia vid Helsingfors universitet berättar om hur staden har formats av krig, handel och platsen vid havet.Programledare: Fritte FritzsonProducent: Ida WahlströmKlippning: Silverdrake förlagSignaturmelodi: Vacaciones - av Svantana i arrangemang av Daniel AldermarkGrafik: Jonas PikeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/alltduvelatveta/Instagram: @alltduvelatveta / @frittefritzsonHar du förslag på avsnitt eller experter: Gå in på www.fritte.se och leta dig fram till kontakt!Podden produceras av Blandade Budskap AB och presenteras i samarbete med AcastOrganisationer som hjälper Ukrainahttps://blagulabilen.se/http://www.humanbridge.se/https://www.rodakorset.se/https://lakareutangranser.se/nyheter/oro-over-situationen-i-ukrainaUkrainska statens egen lista (militär och civil hjälp)https://war.ukraine.ua/donate/Några organisationer som hjälper Gazahttps://lakareutangranser.se/vad-vi-gor/har-arbetar-vi/palestinahttps://unicef.se/katastrofinsatser/hjalp-barnen-i-gazakrisenhttps://www.rodakorset.se/var-varld/har-arbetar-vi/palestina/gaza/gaza/ Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/alltduvelatveta.

Helsingfors grundades år 1550 av Gustav Vasa, som ville skapa en konkurrenskraftig handelsstad vid Finska viken. Trots detta förblev Helsingfors en liten och obetydlig stad under sina första århundraden.Ett lyft kom dock i mitten av 1700-talet då fästningen Sveaborg började byggas. Detta massiva försvarsverk gav Helsingfors en strategisk betydelse och bidrog till ökad befolkning och handel​. Efter rikssprängningen skulle den ryska tsaren Alexander I göra Helsingfors till huvudstad i Storfurstendömet Finland.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren med Henrik Meinander, professor i historia vid Helsingfors universitet och aktuell med boken Helsingfors: historien om en stad.Helsingfors födelse var ingen självklarhet. Grundad på Gustav Vasas initiativ 1550 för att utmana den mäktiga hansestaden Reval (Tallinn), mötte staden svårigheter i sin tidiga utveckling och levde länge i skuggan av andra finländska städer som Åbo, Borgå och Viborg.År 1808, under det finska kriget mellan Sverige och Ryssland, brändes Helsingfors av svenska trupper i ett försök att förhindra rysk ockupation. Staden föll ändå i ryska händer och år 1812 utsågs Helsingfors till huvudstad för storfurstendömet Finland.Tsar Alexander I ville bryta Finlands starka band till Sverige och samtidigt skapa en ny administrativ stad som inte hotades av gamla maktstrukturer. Arkitekten Carl Ludvig Engel fick ansvaret för att rita stadens nya ansikte, och Helsingfors omvandlades till en ståtlig huvudstad med klassicistiska byggnader såsom Senatstorget och Helsingfors domkyrka​.Under andra hälften av 1800-talet inleddes Helsingfors industriella expansion. Med järnvägsförbindelser till Tavastehus (1862) och Sankt Petersburg (1870) ökade stadens betydelse som handels- och industristad​. Finlands Bank, Nationalmuseum och Nationalteatern etablerades, vilket gjorde Helsingfors till landets politiska och kulturella centrum. Vid sekelskiftet 1900 hade folkmängden ökat till över 100 000 invånare, och finskan började dominera i en stad som tidigare haft en svenskspråkig majoritet​.Efter Finlands självständighet 1917 fortsatte Helsingfors att växa snabbt. Staden inkorporerade flera förorter 1946, vilket gjorde att befolkningen steg till över en halv miljon invånare. Efter andra världskriget präglades Helsingfors av återuppbyggnad och modernisering, och 1952 stod staden värd för de olympiska spelen, ett symboliskt steg in i den globala gemenskapen​.Bild: Carl Ludvig Engels målning av Stortorget i Helsingfors innan omregleringen till dagens Senatstorget.

HOW STALIN'S NKVD MANAGED THE INFORMATION WAR, 1941-45: 7/8: The Red Hotel: Moscow 1941, the Metropol Hotel, and the Untold Story of Stalin's Propaganda War by  Alan Philps  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Red-Hotel-Metropol-Stalins-Propaganda/dp/1639364277/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= In 1941, when German armies were marching towards Moscow, Lenin's body was moved from his tomb on Red Square and taken to Siberia. By 1945, a victorious Stalin had turned a poor country into a victorious superpower. Over the course of those four years, Stalin, at Churchill's insistence, accepted an Anglo-American press corps in Moscow to cover the Eastern Front. To turn these reporters into Kremlin mouthpieces, Stalin imposed the most draconian controls – unbending censorship, no visits to the battle front, and a ban on contact with ordinary citizens. The Red Hotel explores this gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. They enjoyed lavish supplies of caviar and had their choice of young women to employ as translators and share their beds. On the surface, this regime served Stalin well: his plans to control Eastern Europe as a Sovietised ‘outer empire' were never reported and the most outrageous Soviet lies went unchallenged.1900 RUSSIA

Over the course of those four years, Stalin, at Churchill's insistence, accepted an Anglo-American press corps in Moscow to cover the Eastern Front. To turn these reporters into Kremlin mouthpieces, Stalin imposed the most draconian controls – unbending censorship, no visits to the battle front, and a ban on contact with ordinary citizens. The Red Hotel explores this gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. They enjoyed lavish supplies of caviar and had their choice of young women to employ as translators and share their beds. On the surface, this regime served Stalin well: his plans to control Eastern Europe as a Sovietised ‘outer empire' were never reported and the most outrageous Soviet lies went unchallenged. But beneath the surface the Metropol was roiling with intrigue. While some of the translators turned journalists into robotic conveyors of Kremlin propaganda, others were secret dissidents who whispered to reporters the reality of Soviet life and were punished with sentences in the Gulag. Using British archives and Soviet sources, the unique role of the women of the Metropol, both as consummate propagandists and secret dissenters, is told for the first time.  At the end of the war when Lenin returned to Red Square, the reporters went home, but the memory of Stalin's ruthless control of the wartime narrative lived on in the Kremlin. From the weaponization of disinformation to the falsification of history, from the moving of borders to the neutralisation of independent states, the story of the Metropol mirrors the struggles of our own modern era. 1881 HANGING THE PEOPLE'S WILL
