In tĂŒrkischem GefĂ€ngnis: Deniz YĂŒcel erhebt Foltervorwurf
Er halte es fĂŒr „unvorstellbar, dass ein GefĂ€ngnisdirektor es wagen wĂŒrde, in einem Fall, mit dem sich der StaatsprĂ€sident persönlich befasst, derart eigenmĂ€chtig zu handeln.“ Die „Sonderbehandlung“, so YĂŒcels Schlussfolgerung, sei auf Initiative Erdogans hin erfolgt.
Weiter sagt der 45-JĂ€hrige aus, er habe nach den VorfĂ€llen Strafanzeige in der TĂŒrkei erstattet. Die Ermittlungen der Staatsanwaltschaft seien jedoch eingestellt worden, ohne dass er angehört worden sei.

Börsengang in New York: Uber sammelt acht Milliarden ein
Dahinter steckt eine im Grunde simple Idee: Wenn der Fahrdienstleister erfolgreich sein wird, winken aufgrund einer Quasi-Monopolstellung fantastische Gewinne und eine Vervielfachung des kĂŒnftigen Unternehmenswerts. Im Börsenprospekt geht der Konzern davon aus, dass der globale Markt fĂŒr Uber eine potenzielle GröĂe von 5.700 Milliarden Dollar in 175 LĂ€ndern habe.
Are we a sovereign nation, or merely Trump‘s poodle?
Huawei was the pretext, but you couldnât help but think that Iran was the primary motive for Mike Pompeoâs decidedly undiplomatic visit to London this week. The US Secretary of Stateâs public dressing down was for Britain one of the most humiliating episodes â and there have been plenty of them of late â Iâve seen in a long time, and can only really be excused in the context of the paralysing chaos into which British government has descended these past two years.

Last week, during a raucous May Day protest, the gilets jaunes ransacked Parisâs PitiĂ©-SalpĂȘtriĂšre hospital. Thirty-two protesters were arrested. This was an âattackâ by âanti-capitalist, ultra-left militantsâ, according to Franceâs interior minister Christophe Castaner.
Except it wasnât.

The Tory party is disintegrating, collective responsibility has broken down, yet Theresa May goes on
The few Tory MPs who claim to understand how she thinks believe that it has at last percolated through to her that, were she to walk out after the catastrophic local election results, she would merely compound the view of herself as one of the worst prime ministers in history. They think she feels that if she can get a deal to leave the European Union, however bad it might be and by whatever means, she might yet slough off some of her iniquity.

Trumpâs peace plan sets conditions for surrender, Palestinians tell UNSC
âWe cannot afford not to engage with any peace efforts. But the US administration efforts cannot be characterized, nor can qualify as peace efforts,â Maliki told an UNSC Arria-Formula meeting that was organized by Indonesia.

Trotz HandelsgesprÀchen: USA erhöhen Zölle gegen China
Bis zum vergangenen Wochenende sprach vieles fĂŒr eine Einigung im Handelskonflikt. Dann gab es aber offenbar einen heftigen Streit ĂŒber Formulierungen in einem Entwurf fĂŒr ein Abkommen zwischen beiden Seiten. US-Regierungskreisen zufolge hat China bei nahezu allen Punkten einen RĂŒckzieher gemacht. In einer fast 150-seitigen Vorlage habe China systematisch Passagen gestrichen, die zu Kernforderungen der US-Seite gehörten.
Die Kriegsmacht: Deutsche Angriffskriege verstoĂen gegen Grundgesetz und Völkerrecht â und werden dennoch gefĂŒhrt. Teil 5.
Als âSĂŒndenfallâ der Nachkriegsgeschichte wurde der Kriegseinsatz der Bundeswehr in Jugoslawien oft beschrieben. Statt Reue und Umkehr wurden danach aber nur noch weitere SĂŒnden draufgepackt. Unser Autor hat sie in den bisherigen Folgen seiner Artikelreihe ausfĂŒhrlich beschrieben: den Afghanistankrieg, der jetzt nach 18 Jahren wohl bald als verloren angesehen werden muss, den zweiten Krieg der USA gegen den Irak und den Angriffskrieg gegen Libyen. Im fĂŒnften und letzten Teil geht er nun auf die Beteiligung Deutschlands am Krieg gegen Syrien ein. Auch hier zeigten sich die scheinbar lammfrommen deutschen AuĂenpolitiker als verkleidete Wölfe. Deutschland war aktiv beteiligt an nachrichtendienstlichen Angriffen auf Syrien, an einem umfangreichen Propaganda- und Wirtschaftskrieg und an der UnterstĂŒtzung einer höchst dubiosen syrischen Opposition.
