Die AfD versucht zum einen in Bundeswehr (KSKaffäre, Bundeswehrler als Parlamentarier) , Geheimdiensten (Roewert/Maasen), Polizei (NSU 2.0, SEKskandal) zu mobilisieren…

Author: Dr. Evan Ellis The December 2019 inauguration of President Alberto Fernández and Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner in Argentina returned to power a Peronist government that has not only moved the nation in an increasingly left-populist direction, but has also opened the door for a substantial deepening of the country’s already significant relationship with the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

The Modi government wanted to implement some neoliberal land reform laws, which should bring in multinational agro companies and market elements in the Indian agricultural sector which still occupies most of the…
