On October 31, the UN Security Council adopted a resolution on Western Sahara (S/RES/2797) which, as with previous resolutions, extended the mandate of the United Nations Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO) for one year and outlined a series of guidelines for resolving the conflict. The difference from previous resolutions is that it gave greater prominence to Morocco's proposal for autonomy in the territory.

I've written this article before. In fact, I could write it every year when a new Global Report on Food Crises is published. The report is based on four points:
1. The number of people suffering from hunger is higher now than last year.
2. The amount of food produced this year is greater than that produced last year.
3. There is enough food to feed the entire world's population, and more.
4. How do we explain why there are people who suffer from hunger?

BRICS Pay will be a digital platform that would allow consumers and businesses in partner countries to make payments and transfer funds across borders with ease – precisely what we do now with SWIFT, except that they would not do so under Western domination. More than 50 countries have already expressed interest in joining this initiative ahead of the 2024 BRICS summit.

There is a virtually unanimous perception of a worsening of the major international dilemmas, whether we are referring to issues of peace or development, manifesting itself in open discontent with the different yardsticks applied to certain conflicts and the persistence in preserving an exclusive hegemony that does not take into sufficient consideration the changes that have occurred in recent decades in the international economy and society.

Morocco tries to “bypass” the UN in Western Sahara with the help of the West

In recent years, Morocco has succeeded in getting several Western powers to change their position on the Western Sahara conflict to align themselves with Rabat's theses, albeit to varying degrees. The first was the United States under Donald Trump, and the last was France under Macron, both of which have gone furthest in recognising Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) said this week in a statement that its American counterpart, USADA, has allowed doping among the athletes it supervises for years. Its management team has also admitted that it was aware of these events since 2021.

The North American organization justified its actions before WADA by assuring that it was going to use the cheating athletes to obtain incriminating evidence against the rest of the people involved in these acts.

In recent years, three West African countries, in the Sahel region, have experienced coups d'état with a common denominator: the national and sovereign uprising against France, its former metropolis, still dominant in the economy, defense and international relations. These are Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger.
We spoke with Alex Anfruns, author of the book “Niger: another coup d'état… or the pan-African revolution?”

Rwanda, the new Fachoda complex between France and Great Britain

The main European states that colonized Africa, France and Great Britain, still want to maintain some kind of influence on the continent. The former has sheltered for decades several Rwandan war criminals involved in the genocide against Tutsis and moderate Hutus in 1994, and the latter maintains good relations with President Kagame despite the fact that his regime has been repeatedly accused of not respecting human rights.

The Oxfam organization has just published a report on inequality in the world, “Inequality SA”, which has the subtitle “A huge concentration of corporate and monopolistic power is exacerbating inequality in the global economy.” A work that brings a lot of light in these days when the media is dedicated to reporting on the World Economic Forum or Davos Forum.
