Many countries in Latin America are now facing a decline and sometimes an absence of liberal democracy as they fight against criminality while trying, at the same time, to maintain order. This is the case in both Central America and in Mexico. In those countries, liberal democracy is confronted with an issue of order in the face of high levels of criminality.
While Israel is dealing with its greatest, most dangerous ever internal crisis, it also has to ponder the pros and cons of a possible agreement with Saudi Arabia, whether as seems more likely a normalization agreement or even full peace treaty.
For nearly six months, Israel has been gripped in an internal crisis described by many as the most severe challenge to its very viability as a democratic state. Israel experienced significant crises, such as the Altalena crisis in June 1948, only weeks after the establishment of the state, the reparations from Germany crisis in 1952, the turbulent period after the Oslo Accords climaxed with the assassination of PM Rabin in 1995, and the Disengagement from Gaza in 2005.
Recent reports of Cuban soldiers being drafted into the Ukrainian war effort highlights how Moscow is trying to fill the gap left behind by Wagner.
Both programs lack sufficiently focused and measurable objectives warranting the use of race, unavoidably employ race in a negative manner, involve racial stereotyping, and lack meaningful endpoints. . . . We have never permitted admissions programs to work out that way, and we will not do so today.
The Madrid-based NGO Prisoners Defenders reported that the Cuban and Russian governments signed an agreement in which Cuba would send soldiers to join the war in Ukraine. Such an event raises many important questions.
