Streit um Falkland-Inseln eskaliert: «Trump ist ein Tyrann, der die Macht Amerikas missbraucht»

Die Falklandinseln bleiben britisch – und daran wird sich nichts ändern. Mit dieser klaren Botschaft reagierte die Regierung der Falklandinseln im Südatlantik auf Berichte, wonach das Pentagon in Erwägung ziehe, die Souveränitätsansprüche Argentiniens über das Gebiet zu unterstützen – und sich damit gegen Grossbritannien zu stellen.

Wie ein brisanter Reuters-Bericht nahelegte, prüft die US-Regierung diese drastische Massnahme offenbar als Druckmittel gegen das Vereinigte Königreich. Dies, weil London die USA im Krieg gegen den Iran nicht unterstützen möchte.

Lula Government Pushes Back Against Milei Over Map Depicting Brazil as a Favela and Takes Aim at Argentine Poverty

Vieira said that „the map posted by President Milei needs an urgent update“ and presented data favorable to Brazil without directly mentioning Argentina. The minister highlighted that under President Lula, the country „is modernizing and addressing its social problems,“ has a „growing economy, the lowest unemployment levels, international reserves of US$ 360 billion,“ and has exited the Hunger Map.

Vieira also noted that Brazil has had a „stable currency for 30 years“ and does not owe „a single cent to the IMF,“ while a government source pointed to Argentina’s financial difficulties.

In 2024, Milei’s first year in office, poverty in Argentina surged to 52.9%, later falling to 31.6% in the first half of the year—still higher than Brazil’s 23.1%. The IMF extended a US$ 20 billion loan to the country.

Ergebnisse der Vorwahlen in Argentinien erzeugen ein politisches Beben

Milei ist gegen Abtreibung und negiert den Klimawandel, er ist für „freie Liebe“ und freien Waffenbesitz, für gleichgeschlechtliche Ehe, freie Geschlechtswahl und die Legalisierung von Drogen. Er sei katholisch, aber bereit für den Übertritt zum Judentum; Papst Franziskus verkörpere den Kommunismus. „Leben, Freiheit und Eigentum“ sind laut Medienberichten die Leitlinien seines Denkens. Milei zeigt gerne seine Affinität mit Ultrarechten des Kontinents, außerhalb Lateinamerikas hat er sich vor allem der spanischen Partei VOX genähert, die zu den ersten Gratulanten gehörten.

Für den Fall seines Wahlsiegs im Oktober hat er einen „Plan Motorsäge“ angekündigt, der Einschnitte bei staatlichen Institutionen in Höhe von 15 Prozent des Bruttoinlandsprodukts vorsieht. Rund ein Dutzend Ministerien sollen aufgelöst werden, nur die Ressorts für Verteidigung, Justiz, Wirtschaft, Außenbeziehungen, Infrastruktur und Inneres sowie ein neues Ministerium für „Menschliches Kapital“, das die bisherigen Ressorts für Arbeit, Bildung, Gesundheit und Soziales vereinigen soll, würden bestehen bleiben.
