Anomia internacional II

E mias sinais do estado actual das coisas: todos os estados ingerem-se em todos os lados, tentam influenciar todos os regimes, todas as eleições, fazer seus os assuntos de todos, conquistar posicionamento geo-estratégico (como as induzidas exteriormente revoluções às cores nos países da antiga Rùssia -não falo da URSS)...estamos a replicar o ambiente que precedeu a Primeira Grande Guerra. Pergunta Liberal, serão estas funções do tal Estado Minimo?

Spying row justifies crackdown on rights groups, claims Putin

President Vladimir Putin has claimed the recent unmasking of four British "spies" proved he was right to clamp down on the activities of human rights groups, despite trenchant criticism from the West.

Breaking his silence on the issue for the first time since the furore erupted on Sunday, Mr Putin suggested the spying debacle sent a powerful signal to the West. His message was clear: don't criticise me and stop meddling in Russia's domestic affairs.

His comments showed the scandal's deeply political nature and the fact that the episode has served as a useful device for the Kremlin to rebuff its external critics.

Moscow's central allegation was that MI6 was covertly funding 12 non-governmental organisations. It produced documentation which it claimed proved that. The scandal broke - some would say conveniently for the Kremlin - 12 days after Mr Putin signed a new law that brings non-governmental organisations under Soviet-style scrutiny."
