[afrocarpus] Thought of the day: Some UK’s weaknesses that have been revealed by the Brexit

 

Thought of the day: Some UK's weaknesses that have been revealed by the Brexit
 
1) Economically, UK  heavily relies on foreign investments. This is why Japan is  telling UK how Brexit should keep Japan's business interests in UK. If UK does not listen to Japan, there will be serious economic consequences to British people.
 
2) It is hard to find in  UK's supermarkets  and homes, something made in UK. From stationary to a glass that  British  people use to drink water, everything is imported from  China. The next step will be energy that  will be delivered to British homes by China. This is why the PM Theresa May is worried about these trends.
 
3) David Cameron and George Osborne have been competing against the world in accessing  Chinese's investments. They have been obsessed with Chinese's money.
 
4) UK is now like Africa regarding begging Chinese investments.  It is seems to be easier for China to dump  cheaper and low quality products in Africa and UK. African leaders have turned to China which   defends and helps African  regimes that are characterised by human rights abuses and dictatorship.  Like Japan, in the future, China may also warn UK about any attempt that could  affect Chinese businesses in the UK.
 
Conclusion
 
British politicians claim that with Brexit, they will get control of everything:  the economy, laws,  immigration and  money.  As the result of this, UK will become an independent and sovereign country. The  warning from Japan and recent Chinese threats over the new nuclear plant have demonstrated that British economic independence is out of reach for now.

I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
When the white man came we had the land and they had the bibles; now they have the land and we have the bibles.

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines contre le Rwanda sont-elles si importantes ?

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines contre le Rwanda sont-elles si importantes ? Auteur : The African Rights Campaign. Londres, Royaume-Uni Publié en : mars 2026   Introduction Lorsqu'un gouvernement est accusé d'exécutions extrajudiciaires, de déplacements massifs, de violences sexuelles, de violations des droits de l'homme et du pillage systématique des ressources naturelles d'un pays voisin, la réponse diplomatique attendue est un démenti catégorique, étayé par des preuves. Le Rwanda ne l'a pas fait. Lorsque le département américain du Trésor a imposé des sanctions aux Forces de défense rwandaises (FDR) et à quatre de leurs commandants les plus haut placés, le 2 mars 2026, la porte-parole officielle de Kigali, Yolande Makolo, a délivré une déclaration que les analystes diplomatiques étudieront attentivement pour ce qu'elle omet conspicuement. Elle a dit que les sanctions étaient « injustes », qu'elles ciblaient « uniquement...

Le Rwanda au Mozambique : qui les a placés là, pourquoi ils ne peuvent pas rester et pourquoi la SADC doit les remplacer avant que les dégâts ne deviennent permanents

  Qui a placé le Rwanda là-bas, pourquoi la France refuse de le remplacer, comment le déploiement est devenu un bouclier contre les sanctions, et pourquoi la SADC doit agir avant que les dégâts ne deviennent permanents Mars 2026   Résumé exécutif Les sanctions occidentales contre les Forces de Défense du Rwanda (RDF), imposées par les États-Unis le 2 mars 2026 en vertu du Global Magnitsky Act et relayées par une pression croissante de l'Union européenne, ont mis à nu une contradiction stratégique de premier ordre. La même force militaire sanctionnée pour son soutien opérationnel direct au groupe rebelle M23 en République démocratique du Congo est simultanément le principal garant sécuritaire d'un projet de gaz naturel liquéfié (GNL) de 20 milliards de dollars exploité par le géant français TotalEnergies à Cabo Delgado, dans le nord du Mozambique. Cette analyse répond à trois questions interconnectées dont les réponses définissent ...

Why US Sanctions Against Rwanda Are So Important

Why US Sanctions Against Rwanda Are So Important Author: The African Rights Campaign. London, UK Published: March 2026   Introduction When a government is accused of extrajudicial killings, mass displacement, sexual violence, human rights abuses, and the systematic pillage of another country's mineral resources, the expected response in international diplomacy is an unequivocal denial backed by evidence. Rwanda did not do that. When the United States Department of the Treasury imposed sanctions on the Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) and four of its most senior commanders on 2 March 2026, Kigali's official spokesperson Yolande Makolo made a statement that diplomatic analysts will study carefully for what it conspicuously omitted. She said the sanctions were 'unjust,' that they targeted 'only one party to the peace process,' and that they 'misrepresent the reality and distort the facts.' Rwanda's government, described by Bloomb...
