The Ukrainian Crisis: a dramatic blow given to the
Euro-BRICS rapprochement as well as to the emergence of a multipolar world
The Ukraine crisis is not an accident of history, it is the
result of an intention: that of forcing Ukraine to choose sides between Europe
and Russia. The European External Action Service of the European Commission led
by Ms. Ashton and Mr. O’Sullivan refused the tripartite negotiation proposed by
Russia in November 2013 between the economic partnerships under development
among Ukraine and Russia on the one hand, and Ukraine and the EU on the other
hand.
Political risk? Watch out for these countries
All five of the emerging market BRICS countries face
increased political risk in 2014, according to a new report, which also warned
that the recent unrest in Ukraine had wide-ranging repercussions. In its annual
Political Risk Map, Aon Risk Solutions warned of a greater likelihood of risk
in the BRICS countries.
Faut-il négocier un accord de libre-échange entre l'UE et la
Chine ?
L'idée d'un accord de libre-échange entre l'UE et la Chine
suscite de vives craintes. D'un point de vue commercial, c'est pourtant
l'absence d'accord avec la Chine qui risque d'être bientôt difficilement
justifiable. Mais cette perspective pose d'autres questions.
BRICS aim to finish development bank preparations by July
summit
The BRICS bloc of emerging economies will have all
preparatory work done for setting up its development bank by the group's summit
in July, South African Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan said on Thursday.
Jim O’Neill: shifting trade, a threat to global institutions
Jim O’Neill believes, not for the first time, that
economists and policy makers have got it wrong. They underestimate how much the
growth of China and other emerging markets has transformed the world economy,
and the implications for Europe.
China attempts to split EU and US
Xi Jinping's proposal that China and the European Union
explore a free trade agreement is a sign of Europe's pivotal role. Especially
significant was his assertion in a speech that such a China-Europe relationship
would make the two "the twin engines for global economic growth",
making no mention of the United States.
La Russie menace de couper le gaz à l'Ukraine et à l'Europe
Le président russe Vladimir Poutine exige que les Européens
assurent le paiement des milliards de dette de l'Ukraine. L'Ukraine était
confrontée vendredi 11 avril à la menace d'une coupure des livraisons de gaz
par la Russie et aux risques d'affrontements entre autorités ukrainiennes et
sympathisants pro-russes dans l'est du pays.
B(R)ICS states stick together in Crimea crisis
The US and Europe are maintaining a clear position: they've
condemned the Crimea annexation by Russia. But what do Russia's BRICS partners
Brazil, China, India and South Africa think of the Crimea crisis?
India’s goals at the BRICS bank
Recent official discussions on the BRICS Development Bank
(BDB) have revolved round the location of its headquarters and its voting and
governance structure. In India, there has been very little public policy
discussion around the strategic imperatives that should inform India’s position
on these issues.
G20 gives US ultimatum over IMF reform
The G20 has given an ultimatum to the US to pass reforms to
the International Monetary Fund or risk being left out of new changes. Finance
ministers in Washington for the spring meetings of the IMF and World Bank said
they were “deeply disappointed” by failure to implement changes agreed in 2010,
and gave the US until the end of the year to do so....
Gas supplies may be affected, Putin warns Europe
President Vladimir Putin on Thursday sent a letter to EU
leaders, expressing his "extreme concern" over Ukraine's debt for
Russian gas and warning them that supplies to Europe may be affected, his
spokesman said.
