Happy Sunday, all! I am still not done with the UNGA coverage, there is one more post in the making, to review the major happenings of this past week. The UN Social Media team did a tremendous job throughout the week, be sure check out their space. Envío buenos pensamientos a mis seguidores en México y Puerto Rico. And to everybody else, once again, if you can, please consider donating to help those affected – here you can find a couple of ways to do that. Let’s get to this week’s stories now. So, Has This Ever Happened Before? Let’s…
I hope you are having a great Sunday, everybody! Exciting days are coming in terms of world affairs! The 72nd session of the UN General Assembly had already started this week, the general debate with all the exciting speeches of world leaders is to come next week. As well as high level meetings and important side events. I will try to follow and report on everything daily, check back here if you are interested! Meanwhile, it was an eventful week, providing much topic for the coming days, here’s some of the best posts. Breaking the Impasse with North Korea There…
Happy Sunday! I hope this finds you safe and well. Here’s a bunch of ways to help hurricane victims and here are others to help Mexico after the earthquake. I hope you’ll consider to contribute if you can! Most of my sources had a short week, so there were less posts, but lots happened! Here’s what I recommend. This hurricane season shows why small islands pushed so hard for climate action And also why measurable action cannot be delayed any more. What would war with North Korea look like? Not good, not at all good. It wouldn’t be simple and…
Happy weekend, everybody and happy long weekend to all to whom that applies! I hope your weekend is happy and relaxed! This week’s round-up is short, but there are some important topics here to check out. The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights is Just Doing His Job It’s a wonder how President Trump havent’t tweeted lies about the High Commissioner yet, that’s what he seems to do with everybody who dares to criticize him. Rules for Reconstruction in Syria I don’t know whether or not it is timely to speak about reconstruction in Syria yet, but this is a…
Happy Sunday, everybody! I hope your week was better, than mine! I had this quite serious cold sticking through most of it making it quite hard for me to function normally. Which I still needed to do. This weekend I am attending a two day learning training which I am excited about, even though I am still not well enough, and despite this means I will not have any weekend or time to rest at all. Oh well, maybe next week… What I am really sad about, though, is the end of summer, which I feel has just passed me…
Happy weekend, everybody! I hope this finds you well. I had a nice mini vacation at the countryside this week, where I spent most of my time out in the sun reading a book or just listening to the sounds of nature. Unfortunately it resulted in a terrible cold/allergy, but the good part was worth it! This time I feel like I have written all I could about such pointless, terrible attacks and find it hard to add anything meaningful at this point. I am sad it just keeps happening… ¡Enviando buenos pensamientos y abrazos cálidos a todos los afectados! ¡Mantente…
Happy Sunday, everybody! I hope you are all safe and well! When I complained about being short of news, I didn’t exactly wish for anything close to this. One of my politics professors used to say that the greatest guarantee we have against a third world war is the nuclear bomb itself. Because all parties are very well aware that once it’s out, all hells will break loose. I do hope he was right. Also, I will repeat that any policy that encourages people to hate others for what they are or where they are coming from is wrong. And…
Happy weekend! I hope this finds you well. We are about to see the end of yet another extreme heat wave that affected several parts of Europe, and science says in the years to come, it will only get worse (while others still say climate change is myth). My Feedly feed was unusually easy to keep clean this week, my favorite bloggers must be on holiday. And there is not much to write about in terms of world affairs too, which I guess, in a certain perspective is good. Souring Relations Between the United States and Russia May Impact North…
Happy Sunday! FINA World Championships are coming to a close today in Budapest, and I was able to witness some great moments there. Check out my Instagram for pics of the swimming competitions and waterpolo matches I attended. The cost of building and organizing the whole thing might have been high, I doubt it compares to what Hungary gained on it, but all I can say is nothing compares to the vibe of cheering your team on a world event, just ten minutes walk from your home (the serious sunburn nice tan I developed during a midday openair waterpolo match is…
Happy Sunday! It is summer in full swing with another heatwave in Hungary. Today is also the day of a New Moon, which they say is a great occasion to start carrying out plans. I would argue that any day is a great day for that, but since here we are today, let’s review our yearly plans and make sure everything is in order. I sure have a lot to think about on that front. Anyway, my favorite bloggers must be on vacation, because there was significantly less posts this week to choose from. Here’s some for you to read,…
