Israel Calls for ‘Paralyzing’ Sanctions on Iran to Contain Nuclear Weapons Strength Sunday, December 11, 2011 By Fredrik Dahl and Michael Shields VIENNA (Reuters) - Iran’s ruling clerics could use nuclear weapons to strengthen their grip on power and the world must urgently impose crippling sanctions to prevent them from building such arms, Israel’s defense minister Ehud Barak said on Sunday. Asked about prospects for an Israeli attack on its arch foe Iran’s nuclear sites, Barak said he still believed that it was “time for urgent, coherent, paralyzing” punitive steps targeting Iranian oil trade and its central bank. “Nothing short of this kind of sanctions will work,” Barak said, adding there was a need for a “direct attack, isolation, by the whole world” of the Iranian central bank. Speculation that Israel, which sees Iran’s nuclear program as an existential threat, could launch preemptive strikes against Iran was fuelled by a U.N. report last month which said Tehran appeared to have worked on designing a nuclear weapon. The Islamic Republic, which often lashes out at Israel over its assumed atomic arsenal, says allegations that it is seeking nuclear arms are based on forged evidence. Barak said he would “love to see the Arab Spring jumping over” the Gulf into Iran, referring to political upheaval in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and elsewhere over the last year. “This regime in Iran, the ayatollahs, they will be not be there I believe in 10 or 15 years. It is against the nature of the Iranian people and what happens all around the world. “But if they turn nuclear they might assure another layer of immunity, political immunity for the regime in the same way that Kim Jong-il assured his,” Barak said, referring to the North Korean leader and that country’s development of nuclear weapons. He suggested that the Libyan conflict could have taken a different course if Muammar Gaddafi had declared at the outset that “he has three or four nuclear devices”. Earlier this month, Barak said that an Israeli attack on Iran was not imminent. He has also said there were several months left in which to decide on such action. Turning to events in Palestine, he said Israel might at some stage have to “take more assertive action” in Gaza, where Palestinian fighters responded with rocket attacks on Israel after an Israeli air strike killed two Palestinians last Thursday. http://www.alarabiya.net/articles/2011/12/11/182060.html (Return to Articles and Documents List) FoxNews.com Bolton: Iranian Jamming Technology Could Be Worse News than Downed Drone December 11, 2011 By FoxNews.com Issue No. 964, 13 December 2011 United States Air Force Counterproliferation Research & Education | Maxwell AFB, Montgomery AL Phone: 334.953.7538 | Fax: 334.953.7530 American officials insist that neither weaponry nor technology brought down a U.S. drone that was flying over Iranian territory earlier this month, but a former U.S. ambassador says if reports are true that Russia provided jamming equipment, the situation becomes all that much worse. "Some reports have said Russia sold (Iran) a very sophisticated jamming system a short time ago," U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton told Fox News on Sunday. "Now, our military says that is not true, it came down because of a malfunction. I certainly hope that's right because if the Russians have provided Iran with sophisticated jamming equipment it means a lot else is at risk too." Bolton said Congress ought to be concerned if the Iranians are in possession of jamming technology that can bring down missiles, planes and communications and guidance systems "for a whole range of our weapon systems." On Sunday, an Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps senior commander said the regime will not return the drone, and in fact, considered the spy mission of the unmanned vehicle to be an act of war itself. "We are not the kind of country to allow our enemy to operate freely within our national security and to continue without any response, but regarding the kind of reaction we will show, our enemies will see its effects," said. Gen. Hossein Salami. The drone itself was shown on Iranian television and appears to be mainly intact, though a U.S. official told Fox News that it looks like one wing had been removed and put back on. President Obama was given different options by the Pentagon to go into Iran and either retrieve the RQ-170 or destroy it, but he declined because, sources say, he didn't want such a mission to be seen as an act of war. Bolton said that's not an adequate excuse. "The Iranians, in saying they would not give it back, said the very act of sending it over Iran was an act of war, which undercuts the Obama administration's assertion that we didn't go into try and destroy the drone after it was captured for fear of the Iranians saying exactly that. ... So while there may be a lot of good reasons not to go in that is not one." Bolton added there may be several reasons not to destroy the drone, but it's important to find out whether "the classified information and other intellectual property inside the drone was erased" before the Iranians got hold of it. "If they still got the electrons in there, that can reveal what was programmed into the drone it would be very bad news indeed," he said. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/12/11/bolton-iranian-jamming-technology-could-be-worse-news-than- downed-drone/ (Return to Articles and Documents List) FARS News Agency – Iran Monday, December 12, 2011 Analyst: Iran-Russia Ties to Further Consolidate after Putin's Return to Power TEHRAN (FNA) - Cooperation with the Islamic Republic of Iran will top the agenda of the Russian foreign ministry after Vladimir Putin's likely return to presidency, a prominent Russian academic figure stressed. Speaking to FNA, Vladimir Plaston, a lecturer at the Novosibirsk State University, said that Putin's reelection in the upcoming presidential polls will further strengthen Russia's will to expand ties with the Central Asia and the Islamic Republic Iran as this policy serves the interests of Russia and the other sides.

  • The Right of Free Expression and the Rule of Law 365
    CHAPTER VI RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION AND THOUGHT A. Introduction: The right of free expression and the rule of law 365. The right of free expression is essential for the development and strengthening of democracy and for the full enjoyment of human rights. Full recognition of freedom of expression offers a fundamental guarantee for ensuring the rule of law and democratic institutions. This has been acknowledged on many occasions by different sectors of civil society, international organizations, and most nations.[170] 366. The American Convention on Human Rights, Article 13, enshrines the right of free expression in the following terms: 1. Everyone has the right to freedom of thought and expression. This right includes freedom to seek, receive, and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing, in print, in the form of art, or through any other medium of one’s choice. 2. The exercise of the right provided for in the foregoing paragraph shall not be subject to prior censorship but shall be subject to subsequent imposition of liability, which shall be expressly established by law to the extent necessary to ensure: a. respect for the rights or reputations of others; or, b. the protection of national security, public order, or public health or morals. 3. The right of expression may not be restricted by indirect methods or means, such as the abuse of government or private controls over newsprint, radio broadcasting frequencies, or equipment used in the dissemination of information, or by any other means tending to impede the communication and circulation of ideas and opinions.

LADB Article Id: 077994 ISSN: 1060-4189 Colombia-Venezuela: Diplomatic Relations Severed After Puzzling Gambit by President Álvaro Uribe by Andrés Gaudín Category/Department: Region Published: Friday, August 6, 2010 On July 22, two weeks before President-elect José Manuel Santos was to be sworn in, Venezuela announced it was breaking diplomatic relations with its neighbor (economic ties had been frozen since 2009). The decision came after outgoing Colombian President Álvaro Uribe's administration denounced at a special session of the Organization of American States (OAS) the alleged presence of Colombian guerrilla groups in Venezuelan territory with the backing of the Venezuelan government. Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez responded, saying that, "out of dignity, and with much sadness," his administration "had no other choice" but to make a predictable decision that only confirmed what had seemed inevitable for more than a week. Brandishing documents that failed to convince most of those present, Colombia's Ambassador to the OAS Luis Alfonso Hoyos asserted that 1,500 guerrillas had set up camps in Venezuela, and he proposed creating a commission to inspect "the 39 sites" where they were.

  • Abstract the Aim of the Article Is to Inquire About the Role and Place of Latin America in the New Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation
    THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION’S POLICY TOWARD LATIN AMERICAN STATES Dr. Katarzyna Krzywicka4 Abstract The aim of the article is to inquire about the role and place of Latin America in the new foreign policy of the Russian Federation. In the 1990s Russia lost its superpower status and was forced to restrict its activity in many regions of the world, including Latin America. It was also the end of the Soviet-U.S. ideological rivalry in the region. Russia aims today at maintaining complex and balanced global relations and at de-ideologization of its foreign policy. Russian-Latin American relations since the mid-1990s have been characterized by a gradual development of mutual relations, with a visible acceleration of contacts after 2000 due to Russia’s diplomatic contacts with all the states in the region. The present foreign policy of Russia is determined by its domestic problems. Thus, Latin Ame- rica occupies a peripheral position on the list of Russia’s priorities oscillating around its European and Asian neighbors. However, the Russian activities in Latin America point to the economic and political attempts at restoring the lost global position. The economic development, democratization and Latin American integration in the 1990s made the region an interesting partner for Russia in its attempts at establishing multilateral global relations. Russia and the Latin American states agree on many international - ning the role of diplomacy and of the U.N. Russia evidently aims at developing mechanisms for capital investment in the region, 4 M.A. and Ph. D. in Political Science, Maria Curie-Sklodowska University (MCSU), Lublin, Poland.

    July 19, 2017 OSG/285-17 His Excellency Ambassador, José Luiz Machado E Costa Permanent Representative Brazil to the Organization of American States Chairman of the Permanent Council Washington, D.C. Your Excellency, I have the honor to address you for the purpose of presenting my third Report on the continuing crisis in Venezuela. In my first two reports of June 2016 and March 2017, respectively, I described the “alteration of the Constitutional order” and the “democratic order” as outlined in the Inter-American Democratic Charter. It is with a heavy heart and great urgency that I submit this third Report detailing the deliberate and systematic abuses perpetrated by the Government of Venezuela against the citizens of Venezuela during the ongoing protests. Following the adoption of Permanent Council Resolution CP/RES 1078 of April 3, 2017, which declared that there had been a “violation of the constitutional order” in Venezuela, the already dire situation in the country has continued to deteriorate dramatically. Left with no other choice, on April 1 the people of Venezuela have taken to the streets to exercise their fundamental rights and freedoms and speak out against the corruption and abuses of the Regime of President Nicolás Maduro. The Government responds with violence and terror. This violence is not taking place at random. These actions taken by the Government are deliberate. This is a thought out, methodical strategy being executed; a policy where one or two protestors are killed each day. This is the strategic and systematic targeting of an unarmed, civilian population. The boldness of the Regime is growing as is the ferocity of the tactics used.
