09/29/2006 Na poziv pokreta Dosta! jučer, 28. 9. se ispred zgrade Predsjedništva BiH okupilo nekoliko stotina ljudi koji su protestovali protiv policijske brutalnosti. Povod demonstracijama je bio incident u srijedu u kojem je pretučen jedan od aktivista NVO "Tutto Completto". Demonstranti su zahtijevali ostavke pripadnika policijskog osiguranja zgrade Predjedništva BiH, SIPA-e, ostavku direktora SIPA-e, ostavku ministra sigurnosti te puštanje aktivista nevladine organizacije "Tutto Completo".

09/28/2006 Nepalilaiset ovat menettämässä uskonsa rauhan tuloon, pelkää Suomessa vieraileva ihmisoikeusaktiivi K.B. Rokaya. Hän haastaa niin kehitysapua antavat hallitukset kuin kansalaisjärjestöt miettimään uudenlaisia tapoja auttaa nepalilaisia. Poliittiset puolueet ja maolaisliike sopivat kesäkuussa kahdeksan kohdan ohjelmasta, joka määrittelee tien konfliktin ratkaisuun ja demokratiaan, mutta sen toteuttaminen polkee paikoillaan.

Il premier cinese Wen Jiabao e Romano Prodi
09/28/2006 Vorrei dirlo subito e chiaro: non solo il presidente del Consiglio Romano Prodi, ma tutta la “parte che conta” della nostra classe politica ormai ha detto apertamente che è favorevole a sbloccare l’embargo di armi dell’Unione europea verso Pechino. Ha iniziato Berlusconi nel 2003, seguito da Ciampi due anni fa, ma anche Fini e D’Alema si sono espressi allo stesso modo. Come movimento per la pace e il disarmo dobbiamo prendere atto di questo preoccupante appiattimento della nostra classe politica a tre interessi: la pressione della Cina che cerca una legittimazione politica internazionale, la volontà dei produttori nazionali di armi – e non solo – di espandere il proprio mercato e la necessità dell’Italia di non perdere il passo con la competizione rappresentata dagli altri paesi dell’Ue – soprattutto Francia e Germania – per conquistare fette del mercato cinese, tra cui quello di sistemi militari di alta tecnologia.
