La Hongrie : Orbán et l'État de droit | ARTE
Sep 5, 2021 • Le Premier ministre hongrois Viktor Orban a annoncé le 3 mars que son parti quittait le groupe du Parti populaire européen (PPE) au Parlement européen, en réaction à un vote des eurodéputés sur une réforme des statuts ouvrant la voie à une exclusion. Une décision qui met un point d'orgue à une crise qui oppose la Hongrie de l'ultra-conservateur Viktor Orbán à l'Union européenne sur la question de l’État de droit. Ce documentaire revient sur cette série d'événements.
Depuis l’été 2020, la bataille fait rage au Parlement européen : alors que le futur plan de relance post-Covid, fruit d’âpres négociations entre les États membres, prévoit de conditionner l’attribution des aides européennes au respect des règles démocratiques, la Hongrie de Viktor Orbán a opposé un veto ferme à ce projet. Soutenu par le gouvernement polonais, le dirigeant ultraconservateur a précipité une crise politique de plusieurs mois, mettant en exergue les tensions à l’œuvre dans une Union qui achoppe sur la question des valeurs fondamentales et de l’État de droit. Face à l’obstruction d’Orbán, l’Allemagne, à la tête du Conseil de l’UE jusqu’à la fin de l’année 2020, s’est résolue à négocier un compromis, permettant la levée du veto polono-hongrois. L’Union cède-t-elle aux autocrates ? Michael Wech se lance dans un road-movie à travers l’Europe pour décrypter cette crise inédite.Erratum : Gergely Karácsony a été élu maire de Budapest en octobre 2019 et non en décembre de cette année comme il est dit dans le film.

Afghanistan : les talibans gagnent du terrain dans la vallée du Panchir, dernier foyer de résistance
LE FIGARO : Les nouveaux maîtres de l'Afghanistan auraient pénétré 25 km à l'intérieur de la vallée, longue de 115 kilomètres, contrôlée par les troupes d'Ahmad Massoud et de l'ancien vice-président Amrullah Saleh.
Les talibans ont affirmé dimanche avoir gagné du terrain dans la vallée du Panchir, dernier gros foyer de résistance armée aux nouveaux maîtres de l'Afghanistan. Depuis le 30 août et le départ des dernières troupes américaines du pays, les forces du mouvement islamiste ont lancé une série d'offensives contre cette vallée enclavée et difficile d'accès, située à 80 km au nord de Kaboul. Un responsable taliban a affirmé sur Twitter que plusieurs parties de la région étaient désormais sous contrôle des forces du régime. Côté résistance, Ali Maisam Nazary, porte-parole du FNR, a assuré sur Facebook que la résistance «n'échouerait jamais». » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | dimanche 5 septembre 2021

L‘affiche : La naissance de la publicité moderne | ARTE
Sep 5, 2021 • Au début du XXe siècle, trois graphistes germanophones, les Allemands Lucian Bernhard et Ludwig Hohlwein, ainsi que l’Autrichien Julius Klinger ont révolutionné le monde de la publicité.
L'art de la publicité, dont l'essor récent est intimement lié à celui de l’industrialisation, a connu un tournant majeur à Berlin, Munich et Vienne, au début du XXe siècle. Trois graphistes, les Allemands Lucian Bernhard et Ludwig Hohlwein, ainsi que l’Autrichien Julius Klinger décident alors de mettre leur talent au service des industriels de l’automobile, du tabac ou de la mode. Simplifiées à l’extrême, leurs Sachplakaten (affiches-objet) ne ressemblent plus en rien aux publicités de style Art nouveau : désormais, les biens de consommation et leur marque sont placés au centre des affiches publicitaires. Une révolution.

With the US Becoming a Less Reliable Ally, Britain Needs to Make Friends in Europe
THE GUARDIAN: Britain urgently needs to repair its relations with its neighbours but Boris Johnson’s government is singularly ill-equipped to do so

After the rout, the recriminations. British fingers furiously jab at the Americans for a shaming scuttle from Kabul that will embolden the west’s adversaries. Sir John Major yesterday called the withdrawal of western forces a “strategically very stupid” decision. Tony Blair, the prime minister who sent British forces into Afghanistan 20 years ago, goes so far as to call the precipitous exit “imbecilic”. Number 10 has been forced to deny that Boris Johnson refers to the US president as “Sleepy Joe”, the insult minted by Donald Trump. Supporters of Joe Biden counter-accuse the British and other European countries of expecting the US to continue to expend its blood and treasure in Afghanistan when most Nato members had wound down their commitments long ago.
In Whitehall, an ugly three-way blame game rages between the Foreign Office, the Ministry of Defence and the Home Office about why the government didn’t anticipate the swiftness of the fall of Kabul or make timely preparations to help vulnerable people to whom Britain owes obligations. We’d be in a better place if they’d devoted as much energy to planning for the evacuation as they are expending on excoriating each other. There will be more finger pointing when the Commons returns tomorrow. Yet it is not buck-passing between politicians desperate to save their careers that this country needs if anything useful is to be learned from this debacle. What is required is a cool reassessment of where this leaves Britain in a perilous and unpredictable world.
This humiliating episode has shattered assumptions that have been central to elite thinking about foreign policy. That was very evident when the Policy Exchange thinktank convened a panel of speakers who were notable for their credentials and their anxieties about the future. Sir Mark Sedwill, the former cabinet secretary who also served as national security adviser, was certain that the return of Taliban rule would have an “inspirational” effect on jihadists that will fuel terrorism worldwide. Tom Tugendhat, the Conservative MP who served in Afghanistan and chairs the foreign affairs select committee, worried that we have moved closer to a hot conflict between America and China because Beijing will read the west’s defeat as an encouragement to flex its muscles more aggressively. I was also struck by a contribution from George Robertson, who was defence secretary during New Labour’s first term and Nato general secretary at the time of 9/11. He has always been staunchly in the Labour Atlanticist tradition established by Clement Attlee and Ernest Bevin after the Second World War. It was arresting to hear such a vigorous champion of the alliance with America as Lord Robertson suggest that Britain and other Europeans would have to do more for themselves “to keep our people safe” because “we cannot any longer rely on the American umbrella being there in all situations at all times”. » | Andrew Rawnsley | Sunday, September 5, 2021

Crypto’s Rapid Move into Banking Elicits Alarm in Washington
THE NEW YORK TIMES: The boom in companies offering cryptocurrency loans and high-yield deposit accounts is disrupting the banking industry and leaving regulators scrambling to catch up.
BlockFi, a fast-growing financial start-up whose headquarters in Jersey City are across the Hudson River from Wall Street, aspires to be the JPMorgan Chase of cryptocurrency.
It offers credit cards, loans and interest-generating accounts. But rather than dealing primarily in dollars, BlockFi operates in the rapidly expanding world of digital currencies, one of a new generation of institutions effectively creating an alternative banking system on the frontiers of technology.
“We are just at the beginning of this story,” said Flori Marquez, 30, a founder of BlockFi, which was created in 2017 and claims to have more than $10 billion in assets, 850 employees and more than 450,000 retail clients who can obtain loans in minutes, without credit checks.
But to state and federal regulators and some members of Congress, the entry of crypto into banking is cause for alarm. The technology is disrupting the world of financial services so quickly and unpredictably that regulators are far behind, potentially leaving consumers and financial markets vulnerable.
In recent months, top officials from the Federal Reserve and other banking regulators have urgently begun what they are calling a “crypto sprint” to try to catch up with the rapid changes and figure out how to curb the potential dangers from an emerging industry whose short history has been marked as much by high-stakes speculation as by technological advances. » | By Eric Lipton and Ephrat Livni | Sunday, September 5, 2021

Fears of Violence on Brazil’s Streets as Millions Rally to Back Bolsonaro
THE OBSERVER: His rural voters see the embattled president as a ‘messenger from God’. And this week they will march in the cities to support him

Jair Bolsonaro supporters aren’t hard to find in Sinop, an agricultural boomtown in the Brazilian Amazon where nearly 80% of voters backed the country’s ultra-conservative leader in the 2018 election.
“He’s a president of the people,” said Marcos Watanabe, the head of the city’s conservative association, sporting a T-shirt stamped with Bolsonaro’s name.
Few, however, are as passionate as the president of Sinop’s farmers’ union, Ilson José Redivo, who has placed a billboard of his leader outside its headquarters with the slogan: “We believe in God and we value the family. We’re with Bolsonaro.”
“He’s trying to change Brazil,” said the 64-year-old corn and soya bean farmer who hosted the rightwing populist in Sinop last year at an event attended by members of the region’s powerful agribusiness elite.
Redivo is one of millions of Bolsonaro devotees expected to hit the streets on 7 September for one in a series of mass rallies that have jolted Brazilian politics and left many citizens fretting over the future of their country’s young democracy.
“It will be the largest demonstration Brazil has ever seen,” Redivo claimed on Friday as he prepared to make the 780-mile journey to Brazil’s capital, Brasília, where one of the largest mobilisations will be held. » | Tom Phillips in Sinop | Sunday, September 5, 2021

Afghanistan: «La mort ignominieuse du néoconservatisme américain»
LE FIGARO : CHRONIQUE - Les néoconservateurs sont des idéologues qui croient que leur conception de la démocratie doit l’emporter sur l’idée de paix. Il existe toutefois une autre manière de faire de la diplomatie en Orient.
Mort en 1983, le sénateur démocrate Henry Scoop Jackson, inspirateur du mouvement néoconservateur américain, a dû se retourner dans sa tombe au spectacle de la piteuse déroute afghane de l’Administration Biden. Jamais il n’aurait pu imaginer que son ancien collègue au Sénat, devenu président, allait reproduire, à Kaboul, l’ignominie de l’abandon de Saïgon en 1975.
Au Vietnam, l’Amérique était allée combattre l’expansion du communisme et l’agression du Vietnam du Sud par son voisin du Nord, armé par l’Union soviétique et la Chine populaire. En Afghanistan, l’Amérique s’était, avec l’Otan, lancée dans une vaste opération militaire pour faire du «nation building», tel que l’exigeait la doctrine néoconservatrice, qui façonnait, au tournant des XXe et XXIe siècles, l’élite politico-médiatique américaine. » | Par Renaud Girard | lundi 30 septembre 2021

ADVOCATE: The news makes Buttigieg the first out gay parent in the U.S. Cabinet.
After announcing earlier this summer that they were expecting, Pete and Chasten Buttigieg have now revealed the birth of their two children. It is assumed that the children are twins.
"Chasten and I are beyond thankful for all the kind wishes since first sharing the news that we're becoming parents," Pete Buttigieg, the 39-year-old United States Secretary of Transportation, wrote in a post. "We are delighted to welcome Penelope Rose and Joseph August Buttigieg to our family." Chasten, 32, shared an almost identical message.
