For context according to this link they need 39 B USD, and this "dim-sum" bond is part of the Indonesian diversification strategy.

"According to the budget plan, the Government aims to raise 642.6 trillion rupiah (39 billion USD) this year to cover the deficit. This year, Indonesia has issued many other types of foreign currency bonds such as: Dual currency bonds (USD and Euro) in January and October, raising a total of more than 3 billion USD; Islamic bonds (sukuk) in July; Japanese Yen samurai bonds in June (worth 103.2 billion Yen); Australian dollar (AUD) kangaroo bonds in August (worth 800 million AUD).,

I agree that when posting a YT link one can not assume " everyone knows that channel or that guy", or are like " ..but trust me bro." ai suggest that when posting a video link, one should consider providing some minimum context,or when in doubt a proper alt link with similar news info.

In this case, yes, the channel owner seems quite strict in his reporting methods. He divides facts and his opinion very clearly, so it is ok. These discussion can somewhat be avoided by providing context. / Edit

I never knew any different, as many people can easily be misled or corrupted, at least that's my life experience. So I see it as my civilian task to always remain critical. Basically " my hope" is that the trust I do and must place sometimes, there is only so much one can do, won't be misguided.

But yes. It's sometime hard to keep faith and hope. So far, Europe hasn't been too bad, but I feel we are in a critical time, and can still fuck it all up. We are not in a safe place (yet)

Afaik, EP members have diplomatic immunity, unless the memberstates they represent revoke that privilege. Oftentimes EU is blamed for things memberstates don't want to do themselves and are responsible for.

I really hope it's because Europe is doing something good, and not because some other places have completely lost their way or are doing badly.

Unfortunately the Community European Politics has ended. I send a message to the mod but have no response, so I think it's over. Too bad though, I like reading & discussing European geopolitics, which isn't really possible here afaik. In the older days when Alberto was Mod, everything was ok. But then it split into Yurop for memes, European Politics, and the European Federalists. Well if anyone knows where to discuss Politics please let me know. #E

Yes, many political parties need to reinvent themselves and regain trust and democratic legitimacy with voters.

Many critique the Afd for the obvious right winged (fascist) connotations, but apart from their populist rhetoric, which is bad enough, they are traitors to Germany, Europe and democracy in general. It doesn't compare at all.

There have been already many inquiries and some trials, like the one with Krah But Afd's behavior continues to be suspicious considering:

"He pointed out that the Thuringian branch of the AfD had submitted 47 such inquiries to the state parliament in the past 12 months alone — and with "increasing intensity and depth of detail.

The AfD is particularly interested in IT and equipment used by the police, for example in the area of drone detection and defense," Maier said. Equipment used in civil protection, health care and Bundeswehr activities are also the subject of inquiries.:

 

Allegations of espionage against the Alternative for Germany (AfD) have been raised by the interior minister of the state of Thuringia. In an interview with Handelsblatt, Social Democrat (SPD) Georg Maier expressed concern that the AfD is abusing its parliamentary powers to gather information about Germany's transport infrastructure, water supply, digital infrastructure and energy supply.

 

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A massive methamphetamine drug haul worth approximately $63 million was seized in the Kenyan coastal city of Mombasa on Saturday, and six Iranian nationals were taken into custody by authorities.

The Kenyan Navy intercepted the consignment some 630 kilometers (391 miles) off the coast of Mombasa in the Indian Ocean and escorted the vessel safely to port under armed guard.

 

This new text strengthens political dialogue between Brussels and Tashkent. But it also consolidates many areas such as trade, investment, research, sustainable development and intellectual property.

Trade between the EU and Tashkent reached €4.8 billion last year, a figure that has almost doubled since 2020. The EU is Uzbekistan's third largest trading partner, accounting for 10.4% of the country's trade in 2024. Tashkent exports 7.2% of its goods to Member States, making the bloc Uzbekistan's second largest export partner

Police in Georgia have clashed with anti-government protesters trying to storm the presidential palace in the capital, Tbilisi.

Security forces used water cannons and pepper spray to disperse demonstrators.

The Caucasus country has been in crisis since the ruling Georgian Dream party claimed victory in last year's parliamentary election, which the pro-European Union opposition says was stolen. Since then the government has paused talks on joining the EU.

Ukraine has severed diplomatic relations with Nicaragua following its recognition of Ukraine's temporarily occupied territories as part of the Russian Federation.

French President Emmanuel Macron called on Europe on Thursday to take coordinated action against Russia’s so-called shadow fleet, and follow his country’s lead in detaining vessels used to bust western sanctions and fuel Moscow’s war in Ukraine.

 

This is an in-depth analysis of Russia's Shadowfleet by Kurt Engelen from Belgium's Royal Higher Institute for Defense (RHID). For reference, see also this recent and shorter article by Euromaidenpess.

Here's the report's conclusion (via Le Chat Ai) : The shadow fleet is not marginal but central to Russia’s war economy. Stronger enforcement—at sea, financially, and diplomatically—is critical to cutting off Moscow’s oil revenues and weakening its military capacity.

She always spoke about the problems in China faced by Mongolians, Tibetans and Uyghurs Kalsang Yarphel. Her story appears to be the latest example of Beijing targeting activism taking place overseas. Last year the Chinese authorities put a bounty on a 19-year-old in Leeds for her activism in support of democracy in Hong Kong.
