USA: Race riots and separatist temptations

Damascus (Syria) | 1 June 2020
The race riots that are spreading in the USA today do not threaten the integrity of the territory, but could pave the way for a cultural confrontation between the communities that share the country. Contrary to common belief, secessions of entire regions are more than ever on the agenda.

Washington’s New Anti-China Strategy

Damascus (Syria) | 19 May 2020
Regardless of the anti-Chinese hysteria of the group that imposed Western health policy responses to the Covid-19 epidemic, it demonstrated Western dependence on Chinese manufactured products. This led the Trump administration to move from a desire to rebalance trade to a military confrontation, without however resorting to war. The sabotage of the Silk Roads has officially begun.

The Record of Human Rights Violations in the United States in 2019

Beijing (China) | 14 March 2020
Foreword
"We lied, we cheated, we stole ... It reminds you of the glory of the American experiment," said US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in a speech on April 15, 2019.
The remarks of US politicians have completely exposed their hypocrisy of adopting double standards on human rights issues and using them to maintain hegemony.
The United States claims to be founded on human rights, touting itself as a world human rights defender. Following a framework of its own narrow understanding of (...)

Rome (Italy) | 9 March 2020
The United States are demonstrating their power by organising the largest transfer of their troops in Europe on the occasion of the Defender Europe 20 exercises.

The future of "America", increasingly armed

Rome (Italy) | 21 February 2020
The federal government of the United States is responsible for defense and foreign policy, as well as the prosecution and adjudication of federal crimes. The new budget plans to close large agencies whose role is constitutionally vested in the states. It chooses to make no cuts in military spending although US troops in the broader Middle East and Africa are to "come home" in the last year of President Trump’s first term. Instead, Washington will expand its arsenal.

Behind the Scenes of U.S./Iran Relations

Damascus (Syria) | 14 January 2020
By having Iranian General Qassem Soleimani assassinated in Iraq, President Trump nearly provoked the Third World War. At least that is the version of the US opposition and the international press. For Thierry Meyssan, what happens behind the scenes is very different from the show on stage. According to him, there is a move towards a coordinated military withdrawal of the United States and Iran from the Middle East.

US poised to continue as No. 1 oil producer
