  In recent days the media has been focusing on the US President threatening to “Take over Cuba”. He elaborated further according to him, “I can take it, make it and do whatever I want with it”. It is strange to hear the US President speak about another sovereign country in this manner, evidently President Trump seems to understand sovereignty only in terms of the US and sees no relevance of it to its neighbors, as clearly illustrated in case of Venezuela. Americans from his party tend to brush it aside by saying that's his style, but that’s exactly the point, that can’t be his style as a President of the US or any other country, a verbal threat from a person in power cannot be condoned or legitimatized as part of international relationship.

This sense of privilege a feeling that the US law is above international law and the fact that U...

  The US has never been a Democracy, it has an apartheid approach to international relations, the best-case-studies are not in the present but in the past. Under the excuse of Weapons of Mass Destruction, it destroyed Iraq and ensured its economic ruin prior to the war the Iraqi dinar pegged at 3.21 USD is now 0.00076 USD; or take the case of Libya prior to the war or invasion by US the Libyan dinar was pegged at 1.26 or 1.27 per USD now stands at 0.16 USD. At present there are 40 major American Companies in Libya having high level discussions across sectors such as oil and gas, renewable energy, mining, health, electricity, transportation and infrastructure. This as part of the work to be carried out from the promised $71 billion investment of 14 th Sept 2025. It is interesting to note that prior to the US companies entering Libya, US had put in place decades of Sanctions from 1986, the sanctions started because of support for Abu Nidal Organization, which was fighting for Pale...
