Borrell garden and the jungle

UAE furious over EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell's 'jungle' remarks

The United Arab Emirates accused the European Union's foreign policy chief Josep Borrell of making "racist" remarks last week and summoned the boss of the EU delegation to the UAE.

The UAE foreign ministry condemned Borrell's controversial remarks, in which he compared Europe to a garden and the rest of the world to a jungle, saying they were "inappropriate and discriminatory" and "contribute to a worsening climate of intolerance and discrimination worldwide."

It asked for a written explanation of Borrell's comments and summoned Emil Paulsen, acting head of mission at the EU delegation to the UAE.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at the Kultaranta talks in Finland | 22 June 2022 |

The last time I visited Finland, we - and that was actually last fall - you and I, we discussed how to strengthen the close partnership between NATO and Finland. But I did not imagine that the next time I was going to visit Finland you would have applied for a membership in our Alliance.

What caused this dramatic change was President Putin's war against Ukraine, which has shattered peace in Europe. It is really a game changer. Not just for European security, but also for the global order.

We may have been shocked by Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine. But we should not be surprised.
NATO shared intelligence and warned about a potential invasion for months. It is part of a pattern.

  • The destruction of Grozny.
  • The attack against Georgia.
  • The illegal annexation of Crimea.
  • The bombing of Aleppo.
  • And now, this cruel war against a peaceful neighbour.

[From independence in 1991 a crucial flashpoint between East and West w colour revolutions and in the end when all failed, the Maidan massacre and coup d'état of 2014] [Summary of "attacks" is a handful of LIES ... and the SG continues on same path .. propaganda]

NATO is not part of the war. In response to the war, NATO has two fundamental tasks. One is to provide support to our close partner Ukraine. To uphold its right of self-defence, a right enshrined in the UN Charter. We have done that actually for many years. And since the invasion, we have significantly stepped up our support to Ukraine, and so has Finland, including with military, economic and humanitarian aid. Our aim is to ensure that Ukraine prevails, as a sovereign and democratic state in Europe.    

The other task for NATO is to prevent the war from escalating.

NATO's main responsibility is to protect our people. That is why we are strengthening our defence, especially in the east of the Alliance, on land, at sea, and in the air. This is deterrence. Not to provoke, but to prevent a conflict. And to preserve peace.

Putin's ambitions go beyond Ukraine.

The so-called `security treaties' he presented to NATO and the United States last December made demands not only on Ukraine, but also on NATO to refrain from any further enlargement, and remove NATO troops and infrastructure from countries that joined the Alliance after 1997, introducing some sort of first class and second class members of NATO.

These demands amount to the complete re-write of the European security order, enshrined in the Helsinki Final Act. One of the main principles in the Helsinki Final Act is the right of each nation to choose its own path. This is exactly what President Putin is openly contesting. He is trying to establish an alternative world order, where might is right, where big powers decide what smaller nations can or cannot do.

We meet today at a crossroads of history. Our world is in upheaval. In the Middle East, Iran's axis of terror confronts America, Israel and our Arab friends.

This is not a clash of civilizations. It's a clash between barbarism and civilization. It's a clash between those who glorify death and those who sanctify life.

For the forces of civilization to triumph, America and Israel must stand together. Because when we stand together, something very simple happens. We win. They lose.

Lies Used To Justify War On Iraq Get Reused To Wage War On Iran | MofA |

Former CIA officer Larry Johnson opines:

    I believe that Israel's attack was part of a planned international intelligence and military operation, which included the participation and support of the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany. We got the first clue on May 31, when a UN watchdog issued two reports designed to create a narrative that Iran is a rogue nuclear state:
    ...
    This tactic was employed in 2002/2003 to gin up a justification to attack Iraq, who the US insisted had weapons of mass destruction. We now know it was a lie, but the propaganda was effective in producing support in the US and Europe to invade Iraq. We're seeing a similar effort today, only this time Iran is being falsely accused of enriching uranium to build a bomb. The Iraq WMD lie, like the current calumny against Iran, only has one purpose... justify military action in order to achieve regime change.

I have previously detailed the current IAEA operation to blame Iran over some alleged nuclear contamination which were found more than two decades ago.

During the build-up to the 2003 war on Iraq there was another lie that famously used to 'justify' the attack.

Harsh economic sanctions murders civilians, mainly the most vulnerable mothers and children

Economic Sanctions As An Act Of War | Modern Diplomacy - June 2022 |

Comparison to Blockade

The closest 'act of war' that may be `analogous' to a comprehensive economic sanction may be the act of a 'blockade'. A `blockade' is an act of war which involves restricting ships or aircrafts of some or all nations from entering or existing specific ports or coastal areas of a target country, by the threat or use of armed force. Such an act aims to degrade a country's economy and affect its populace by preventing trade and movement of essential goods. It is included as an act of aggression in Resolution 3314 and also mentioned in Art. 42 of the UN Charter as a type of armed force that may be used by the Security Council.

War crimes and the fundament of "genocide" is crime against Peace

Definition of Aggression General Assembly resolution 3314 (XXIX) - 14 Dec. 1974

Following the prosecutions for crimes against peace at the end of the second World War, the United Nations General Assembly affirmed "the principles of international law" recognised by the Charter of the Nuremberg Tribunal and the Tribunal judgment (resolution 95 (I) of 11 December 1946) and directed the International Law Commission (ILC) to formulate those principles and to prepare a code of offences against the peace and security of mankind (resolution 177 (II) of 21 November 1947). The ILC completed some draft principles which followed the Nuremberg Charter in their description of aggression and, later, a code of offences which included aggression; but neither of these documents were adopted by the General Assembly (resolution 488 (V) of 12 December 1950 and resolution 897 (IX) of 4 December 1954).

Definition of Aggression

On 14 December 1974, the General Assembly adopted by consensus resolution 3314 (XXIX) annexing the Definition of Aggression which had been adopted by the fourth special committee. The Definition begins with a broad definition of aggression, drawn largely from Article 2, paragraph 4, of the Charter (though omitting reference to threats) and then enumerates specific examples of acts of aggression. The acts set out in article 3 qualify as acts of aggression, subject to the provisions of article 2, which envisage that the Security Council may decide not to make a determination of aggression in the light of the circumstances, including the fact that the acts are not of sufficient gravity. Article 4 specifies that the list is not exhaustive and that the Security Council may determine that other acts constitute aggression. The issue of self-determination was a live one during the negotiations and it was dealt with in a saving clause in article 7.

Trump announces decision to withdraw from Iran nuclear deal | White House - 8 May 2018 |

Netanyahu: Israel `fully supports' Trump's `bold' pullout from Iran deal | TOI - 8 May 2018 |

PM says lifting of sanctions has caused 'disastrous' results, emboldening Tehran in its military ambitions, and `bringing war closer'

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu led a chorus of effusive Israeli praise for US President Donald Trump's decision to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal and reinstate the "highest level" of US sanctions on the Islamic Republic.

"Israel fully supports President Trump's bold decision today to reject the disastrous nuclear deal with the terrorist regime in Tehran," Netanyahu said in a live English-language televised statement from his office, moments after Trump's announcement.

Trump announced the US withdrawal from what he called the "defective" multinational nuclear deal with Iran, signing a presidential memorandum to reintroduce high-level sanctions on the rogue regime.
