  • HAITI NEWS ROUNDUP: JUNE 20 – 27, 2006 EU Raises Haiti Aid, Backs
    HAITI NEWS ROUNDUP: JUNE 20 – 27, 2006 EU raises Haiti aid, backs Preval 27 Jun 2006 Reuters Brussels - The European Union announced an increase in development aid for Haiti on Tuesday, in a show of support for visiting President Rene Preval and his newly elected government. European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said EU aid to the troubled Caribbean nation would rise to 233 million euros ($293 million) for the 2008-13 period from the 168 million set aside to cover 2002-7. "We think developments are in the right direction," Barroso told a news conference after talks with Preval in Brussels. EU Development Commissioner Louis Michel said the money would go towards education and infrastructure projects such as roads. A further tranche of aid would be made available if Haiti reached targets on good governance, he said. A new Haitian government was sworn in earlier this month to replace the team of outgoing Prime Minister Gerard Latortue, put in place after former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide was pushed from office by a bloody rebellion in 2004. Preval, a one-time Aristide protege, rode support from Aristide's supporters in the slums to victory in the Feb. 7 presidential election. "The most important thing now is up to the Haitians themselves -- good governance," said Preval. Lawyers, Activists Question Govt’s Case Against Alleged Miami Terrorists Tuesday, June 27, 2006 By: Jackie Jones BlackAmericaWeb.com Last week's news that seven black men had been arrested in Miami on terrorism charges faded from the headlines as quickly as it landed. The group, it turns out, had no contacts with any terrorist groups; no explosives, few resources, and its leader sought such basic equipment as boots and uniforms from a federal informant.

  • The Potential Role of Small States and Their „Niche Diplomacy” at the UN and in the Field of Human Rights, with Special Attention to Montenegro
    Pécs Journal of International and European Law - 2017/I The Potential Role of Small States and their „Niche Diplomacy” at the UN and in the Field of Human Rights, with Special Attention to Montenegro István Lakatos former human rights ambassador, diplomat; current senior adviser of the Minstry for Human and Minority Rights of Montenegro The study examines the different approached followed by small states in order to represent their national interests and make them visible in the international arena. The author underlines the comparative advantages of small states, which can make these countries very efficient, active and successful players in the field of multilateral human rights diplomacy. The fundamental precondition of playing this role is the strong political determination of the given government to the cause of human rights and the presence of several highly qualified and courageous diplomats who are willing to take the risk to be involved in sensitive human rights negotiations and able to resist political pressure coming from bigger states as a result of their activism. Montenegro was a classic example of this state, which placed the protection of human rights in the heart of their foreign policy aiming at EU and NATO membership. Keywords: small states, diplomacy, human rights, Montenegro “Powerful states need no Ambassadors. Their force speaks for them, for small states, it matters how they express themselves.” Albert Einstein 1. Theoretical Introduction – Classification of Different Types of Small State Diplomacy Small states are rarely in the focus of international media attention, and there are not too many researches aimed at understanding the way they are conducting their foreign relations.

  • CICTE Newsletter 46
    June 2007 CICTE Newsletter 46 COUNTER-TERRORISM ACTIVITIES OAS Advances on Computer Security Incident Response Teams In the last year, several OAS Member States have made significant progress in complying with their commitments under the 2004 OAS Comprehensive Inter-American Strategy to Combat Threats to Cyber Security, especially in establishing a national Cyber Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT). These CSIRTs function as a “watch and warning alert system” against attacks by persons who attempt to subvert the internet and computer systems for personal or ideological advantage. Today, 12 OAS Member States have established a national CSIRT and designated the personnel essential for the reduction of vulnerabilities to attacks: Argentina, Bahamas, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, Suriname, United States of America, and Uruguay. Other OAS Member States have legislation pending and will soon join this network. Recent cyber attacks, widely publicized in the news, emphasize the importance of combating this emerging new threat. The CICTE Secretariat focuses its capacity building activities on helping countries establish CSIRTs and train their formally designated personnel for managing and operating them. The OAS telecommunications committee (CITEL) works on general communications and cyber issues. A working group of the Meeting of Ministers of Justice (REMJA) works on cyber crime. All three OAS entities coordinate their activities to assist Member States. For more information, please contact: Mr. Romulo Dantas [email protected], or Mr. Belisario Contreras [email protected] CICTE’S First Cyber Security Program CSIRT Training Course held in Brazil The CICTE Secretariat organized its first training course June 25-29 in Brasilia, Brazil, on the Creation and Management of CSIRTs.
