Orbán eröffnet Wahlkampf in Ungarn mit Brandrede
FRANKFURTER ALLGEMEINE ZEITUNG: Die europäischen Würdenträger würden die Ungarn zu Liberalen „prügeln“ wollen, sagt Orbán bei einer Wutrede gegen die EU zum Auftakt seines Wahlkampfs. In Budapest marschieren Zehntausende seiner Anhänger auf.
Mit dem organisierten Aufmarsch Zehntausender Anhänger aus dem ganzen Land und einer Brandrede gegen die EU hat der ungarische Regierungschef Viktor Orbán am Samstag seine Kampagne für die Parlamentswahl im kommenden Frühjahr eröffnet. Die Institutionen der Europäischen Union würden den Bürgern Ungarns und Polens vorschreiben wollen, wie sie zu leben hätten, erklärte der rechtsnationale Politiker im Zentrum von Budapest.
„Die hohen europäischen Würdenträger wollen uns zu 'Europäern', zu (gegenüber sexueller Diversität) 'Sensibilisierten', zu Liberalen prügeln“, sagte er. Doch wenn es darum geht, „die Heimat, die Familie, die Kultur, die Freiheit des alltäglichen Lebens zu verteidigen“, müsse jeder seinen Beitrag leisten. „Wenn die Zeit kommt, stellt euch vor eure Häuser und verteidigt sie!“, fügte er hinzu. » | Quelle: dpa | Samstag, 23.

Taïwan : un séisme de magnitude 6,5 frappe le nord-est de l'île
LE FIGARO : Un tremblement de terre d'une magnitude de 6,5 a frappé le nord-est de Taïwan dimanche selon l'agence de météorologie, les habitants signalant de fortes secousses dans la capitale Taipei mais aucun rapport ne faisant état de dégâts importants dans l'immédiat.
L'agence de météorologie de Taïwan a constaté un tremblement de terre de magnitude 6,5, tandis que l'US Geological Survey a donné une force plus faible de 6,2. Il a frappé le comté de Yilan au nord-est à 13H11 heure locale (05H11 GMT) à une profondeur de 67 kilomètres (42 miles). La secousse a semblé durer une trentaine de secondes. «Les murs de la maison tremblaient, aussi bien latéralement que de haut en bas, cela semblait assez fort», selon un journaliste de l'AFP à Yilan, qui n'a pas constaté de dégâts dans son quartier. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | dimanche 24 octobre 2021

Turkish Opposition Begins Joining Ranks against Erdogan
THE NEW YORK TIMES: With an eye on elections, six parties are working on a plan to end a powerful presidency and return to a parliamentary system.

ISTANBUL — Turkish opposition parties are presenting an increasingly united and organized front aimed at replacing President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and even forcing early elections in the coming year to challenge his 19-year rule.
As they negotiate a broad alliance among themselves, the leaders of six opposition parties appear to have agreed on turning the next election into a kind of referendum on the presidential system that Mr. Erdogan introduced four years ago and considers one of his proudest achievements.
His opponents say that presidential system has allowed Mr. Erdogan to concentrate nearly authoritarian power — fueling corruption and allowing him to rule by decree, dictate monetary policy, control the courts and jail tens of thousands of political opponents.
By making the change back to a parliamentary system a centerpiece of its agenda, Mr. Erdogan’s opposition hopes to shift debate to the fundamental question of the deteriorating health of Turkey’s democracy. » | Carlotta Gall | Saturday, October 23, 2021

This Dysfunctional Brexit Is Unravelling by the Day. | Truth to Power
This is a very interesting video. I do not, however, share this gentleman's belief in socialism. In my opinion, what this country needs is a modern, business-friendly party, committed to the European Project and more fairness for all.

Éric Zemmour veut rompre avec la doctrine atlantiste
LE FIGARO : À Rouen, l’essayiste a livré un exposé géopolitique offensif à l’égard des États-Unis.
Cinq cent quatre-vingt-dix ans plus tard, l’exécution de la pucelle d’Orléans sur le bûcher n’a visiblement pas été digérée. Dans le cadre de sa tournée de promotion de son dernier livre, La France n’a pas dit son dernier mot , Éric Zemmour a profité d’une étape à Rouen, ville normande où est morte Jeanne d’Arc, pour ébaucher quarante-cinq minutes durant ses vues sur les relations internationales et la défense nationale. Devant les gradins clairsemés - une fois n’est pas coutume - du Zénith de la ville, l’essayiste a dessiné un exposé géopolitique particulièrement offensif à l’égard du monde anglo-saxon.
Contre les Anglais, «nos ennemis depuis mille ans», et tout particulièrement vis-à-vis des États-Unis, face auxquels gouvernements successifs de droite et de gauche seraient coupables de s’être «couchés», assure Éric Zemmour. «Pour nos élites, c’est presque un soulagement: ils se réjouissent que la France se contente d’être sagement une puissance moyenne, à l’ombre des grands (…), ils se trompent lourdement: dans les relations internationales, il n’y a pas de places paisibles pour les seconds rôles.» » | Par Charles Sapin | vendredi 22 octobre 2021

Latin America Has Become an Unlikely Leader in LGBT Rights
QUARTZ: In 2010, Argentina became the first Latin American country to legalize same-sex marriage, largely due to the work of LGBT activists like Esteban Paulon.
Paulon, who didn’t have a partner at the time, saw this movement as a political struggle, rather than a personal one.
“I fought for the law without knowing if I would ever get married or not,” said Paulon, vice president of the Argentine LGBT Federation. “But on the journey to this achievement, I met my partner.”
Paulon and his partner were married three years after the law was passed—turning a national political achievement into a personal milestone they were able to celebrate with their friends and family.
“If the state says that all families are equal before the law and that all families have the same worth, this inevitably has an effect on daily life and on social perception about sexual diversity,” Paulon said. “The fact of being able to access marriage is also personal.”
Since 2010, more than 15,000 same-sex couples have been married in Argentina, the tenth country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage. The decision illustrated Latin America’s unlikely leadership in the fight for LGBT equal rights. Indeed, the focus on the US gay rights movement has overshadowed other countries where important gains have been won. Finally, Latin America is being recognized as a major leader in the global LGBT movement by both academics and major global activists groups like Human Rights Watch. » | Anna-Catherine Brigida | Wednesday, June 6, 2018

Angela Merkel fait ses adieux à une Europe fracturée
LE FIGARO : La chancelière a reçu une standing ovation vendredi pour son 107eConseil européen.
Angela Merkel a tourné vendredi une page importante de sa carrière politique. Elle a participé, à Bruxelles, à ce qui devrait être son dernier sommet européen, le 107e depuis 2005. Alors que les négociations s'accélèrent en Allemagne autour du social-démocrate Olaf Scholz et que la prochaine réunion des Vingt-Sept est programmée peu avant Noël, il fallait rendre hommage à la chancelière. Le président du Conseil européen, -Charles Michel, l'a fait vendredi matin.
Les réunions des Vingt-Sept « sans Angela, c'est Rome sans le Vatican, Paris sans la tour Eiffel », a-t-il affirmé. À la surprise générale, Charles Michel a ensuite fait diffuser un message de l'ancien président des États-Unis, Barack Obama. Louant le « sens de l'humour », « le pragmatisme sage » et « la boussole morale constante » de la chancelière, celui-ci s'est dit « heureux d'être devenu votre ami ». Chaudement applaudie par les Vingt-Sept, visiblement émue, Merkel a affirmé éprouver « un sentiment étrange ». « Cela a toujours été très créatif », a ajouté dans sa courte allocution celle qui n'aime rien de plus que ces compromis de la dernière heure dont elle a été si souvent l'artisan en Europe, notamment en juillet 2020, sur le plan de relance européen. » | Par Anne Rovan | vendredi 22 octobre 2021
