Russian invasion and German humiliation

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

It has been a year since Russia invaded Ukraine and many things that we did not know then have been clarified and suspicions have been shown. One of the most significant is what Petro Poroxenko and Volodimir Zelenski explained by saying that Kiev had no intention of complying with the peace agreements in Minsk. Angela Merkel and François Holland have recognised that these agreements were intended to give Ukraine time to rearm and strengthen, both the main promoters of the peace protocol.

The RAND Corporation, which was scheduled for war, has been serving the Pentagon since 1948, as explained in the famous 2019 report. NATO Secretary Jens Stoltenberg said that since 2014 NATO has granted Kiev unprecedented military assistance, trained, equipped and protected by its armed forces. The Anglo-Saxon axis wanted to use Ukraine to wage war on Russia, so Austin Lloyd, US Secretary of Defense, highlighted the statements he made a few weeks after the invasion: "We want to weaken Russia." For this they needed a long war, so the Anglo-Saxon countries have obstructed all attempts to reach peace agreements. Recently, former Israeli minister Naftali Bennett explained that he had mediated in the negotiations held at the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war and that both sides had the will to get things on track, but that the interviews were sabotaged by the US and the UK. In April 2022 it happened similarly, when with mediation by Turkian Erdogan they reached a peace agreement, but at the last moment, according to the media Ukrainska Pravda (amateur Zelenski), the USA and the UK forced the Government of Ukraine to suspend the negotiation.

The Anglo-Saxon axis planned war long ago, but until 2022 it didn't fully explode because Germany and Russia didn't want it.

The Anglo-Saxon axis planned war long ago, but it did not fully explode until 2022, because Germany and Russia did not want it because they could harm their economies; therefore, German-Russian economic cooperation has continued, as when construction of the North Stream II gas pipeline began in 2018. However, on 24 February 2022, Russia finally took a criminal decision that transgresses international law and began an invasion. A child who suffers harassment and exclusion loses patience and takes a gun, it's like when he gets shot at school. The promises and agreements signed by Russia since the fall of the Soviet Union have remained, and has increasingly felt persecuted.

A year later, militarily Russia is doing nothing well. Winning or losing is relative because it has to do with expectations, which is why Moscow is losing, although the main harmed is the Ukrainian people. As for the economic dimension, the same thing is happening in the Western war against Russia: given the expectations of the initiators, Russia is winning. Among the Western countries, however, the main losers are the European Union and especially Germany.

In this conflict there is a huge transfer of wealth from Western Europe to the US, but not only that, Germany has seen its alleged allies sabotage the peace agreements it has led and have attacked the gas pipelines that drive gas from Russia to Germany, all to the detriment of the German economy. In the meantime, Berlin is not able to say anything in defence of its national interest, it is blind, mute, deaf.

Proposal of the model of the Basque Marriage of Lekeitio for the PNV to investigate the path of reflection

In 1977 the Basque Country Kopa of Lekeitio was launched, a time of transition. At the time of the Republic, in 1931, the first Basque Wedding left the Batzoki. In 1964, the Euskadi Wedding Championship was also held in Lekeitio, in tribute to Resurrection Maria Azkue.

Celebration of Hispanidad

A few years ago I spent a weekend in Pamplona. It was October 12.

I was surprised to see dozens of Latin Americans celebrating ephemerides, with concerts, txosnas and everything. Had I celebrated the conquest of my ancestors? ! I thought that the cultural assimilation of the... [+]

To what extent should they be small farmers?

Much of the current left-wing movement, albeit intuitively, claims small-scale agriculture, without any doubt. However, this claim for smallness has its contradictions: a small farm, by definition, will not be able to produce a lot of food. And is that important? Well, in a... [+]

Does eco-axism come to us?

The eco-social crisis generated by capitalism is causing global unrest across the planet. The "summits" of material and energy resources, establishing limits for growth and accumulation, entail imbalances between nature and society. The crazy wheels of extractivism, climate change... [+]


What we have to defend

One student told me once we studied a text: “The character is sick: the thought moves in his head.” Obviously, with this phrase, he misplaced the comment he had in his mind, that is, that the imbecility of the character was noticed in his continuous reflections. However,... [+]

Learning to say goodbye

Saying goodbye to something or someone is usually an act related to abandonment, the end and, ultimately, the grieving process. I'm sure you would ever, or you'd hear someone, tell them the typical, topical phrase of "I don't like greetings." And I don't want to fool you, not even I've... [+]

Hysterical materialism
Scrap

The smell asked for a gesture, but since it had not done so (no other smell could be expected), neither did the others. “No, no, they’re not all. There are no living parts, I have not left anyone alive, for example, without lips (have you seen? ). They seemed perfect until... [+]


Need for renewable energy planning in the Basque Country

Conservative mentalities are afraid of the term planning, linking with progressive and even communist political currents, as the new authoritarianisms do today (Milei, Meono, Orban, Aznar, among others). However, the idea of planning is still in good health, at least formally... [+]


Meaka-Irimo is still alive!
A long time ago, a wind strike announced that a company was going to build a wind power plant on Mt. Irimo. Most people didn't believe it. Even less so are those who know the orography and the rocky character of Mt. Irimo. "But do you know what damage they would do by going down... [+]

The awkward truth of industrial policy

The global economy suffered a significant upturn following COVID-19. However, the signs that this increase has reached a stage of exhaustion are clearly conditioned by the climate crisis: the rate of economic growth of the major world powers, productivity is stagnating and... [+]
