Africa: AU & UN Leaders Denounce External Interferences in Africa’s Security Crisis! (15.5.2026)

Youssouf said the interferences are requiring the AU, UN and other partners to deploy more efforts to contain the crises. “The AU must lead any peace negotiations on the continent, based on the principle of African solutions to African conflicts.”

Guterres, for his part, said it is absolutely intolerable that countries that are external to Africa interfere in African conflicts, providing weapons and political support with the objective of serving their strategic or economic interests.

“We need naturally to go on developing our common diplomacy, to make sure that we create the conditions for this kind of interference to cease and for other actors to be able to come to political agreements, able to end these conflicts,” he said.

According to Guterres, the world is witnessing a new kind of war where the military does not fight each other but launches drones against civilians.

“We also raise our voices, denouncing those countries that are providing drones that are not manufactured in Africa, as they are causing terrible sacrifice for the African people,” he added.

The 28 countries urged "certain western states" to "heed the just calls of the international community, honour their commitments to the UN Charter and international law, and immediately, unconditionally and completely lift all unilateral coercive measures."

“UCMs, coupled with secondary sanctions and over-compliance, exacerbate existing humanitarian and economic challenges, gravely affect the stability of the global production and supply chains, as well as food, energy and financial security, and seriously undermine the world economic order and the efforts of the countries concerned to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” said Fu.

Two Cheeks of the Same Arse!

UK: Trump and Galloway – Two Cheeks of the Same Arse! (22.1.2025)

Of course, this is not the first time Galloway has been failed by the social conservatism he uses to deploy his far-right rhetoric, as he is currently married to a woman who is 30-years his junior (he was 30 when she was born), and always wears a hat in-doors to cover-up his loss of hair (wearing a head-cover in-doors in the UK is the height of bad manners). Both Trump and Galloway are defined by their far-right political viewpoints, their misogynistic attitudes, their casual racism, their homophobia and transphobia, and their continuous appealing toward the Trotskyite (pseudo) left for vindication. They share a far-right political agenda that is premised upon deceiving and manipulating the working-class into orchestrating its own demise. Do not support Galloway or the latest incarnation of his ego – the so-called “Workers’ Party” (his previous “Respect Party” was hijacked by Islamicists – who then attempted to oust him from it). Remember, even his old chum Jeremy Corbyn not only refused to allow Galloway back into the Labour Party – but in recent years has “banned” Galloway from sharing a platform with him at public Pro-Palestinian protests. Two-cheeks of the same arse indeed!

China: Socialist “Village Super League” [村超 – Cun Chao] Hosts Ethiopian Football Team! (1.1.2025)

Natnael Tamru, the Ethiopian team’s goalkeeper and a taxi driver visiting China for the first time, shared similar sentiments. The 33-year-old praised Rongjiang’s vibrant football atmosphere and said he hopes teams from the Village Super League will one day visit Ethiopia to share the joy of the sport.

During halftime, Ethiopian cheerleaders and Rongjiang’s ethnic minority groups performed on the court.

“This is a great opportunity to showcase our culture to China and help more people learn about Ethiopia,” said Beamlak Biruk, one of the cheerleaders.

“Football attracts people from around the world to share their cultures, and it also allows foreigners to explore Chinese culture,” said Dolla Mihretu Samuel, a member of the Ethiopian team. “Cun Chao has become a platform for communication between China and other countries.”
