*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- The forthcoming EU Heads of State/Government Summit on 21-22 October 2021 in Brussels can Tackle Both Issues of Turkish WarShips Bullying against "East-Med" Pipeline to Europe, and of the, almost Simultaneous, Explosion of Energy Prices, because there is a structural Ling between these 2 Topical current Issues, Agreed a Top EU Official with a relevant "Eurofora"'s Question, at an Off the record Video-Press Briefing under condition of Anonymity, because of the sensitive character of such matters.

For a more Detailed Description of those Recent Incidents, on a Still On-going Obstruction by Turkey, which Affected, at the 1st Line on the spot, 5 EU Member Countries : Cyprus, Greece, Malta, Italy and France, almost at the Same Time that EU Parliament was holding a Long and "Hot" Public Debate on the Parallel "Explosion" of Gas a.o.

 - "Eurofora" : "Dear Sir : 2 Questions, if you can :

- One, about the Energy Prices, which are in the (EU Summit's) Agenda, But there ia Also the Foreign Policy.

=> And, here, we have a very Topical Event : At the Same Moment, we have the (Energy) Prices' Explosion, and, at the Same Time, we have (even) European Energy, near EU Members Cyprus and Greece, as well as Close to Friendly Neighbouring Countries as Israel, Egypt, and others, who Wish to have a (Transport) Link with the EU, But were Hindered to do so, Brutaly, by Turkish WarShips and Threats.

>>> Do you think that there is Space in order to Examine Both these 2 Topical Issues Together ?  I.e. the Foreign Policy Issue and the Energy Prices ?

Because, If We (the EU) could use European Energy, Obviously, the Prices would be (much)Better..."

---------------------------

    -"On Energy and GeoPolitics : ", I.e. "1st Question : Energy and Foreign Affairs".

 - "As it stands, of Course, there is a Key Link between the 2".

 - "And I see the Discussions of Tomorrow extremely Focused on the External aspects".


- "Of course, Our Relation, as Europe, is that of a Major Importer of Gas".

 - "So, you CaN't have a Discussion on this, withOut Tackling the Geo-Politics always.", he Concluded positively.

-------------------------------------------

+ Meanwhile, Soon After the above-mentioned Turkey-provoked Incidents Against the EU's "East-Med" Gas Pipeline, a suibsequent Summit between Greece, Cyprus and Egypt's Leaders took place in Athens, Focusing, this time, on "Electrical" Energy Transport Links to the rest of Europe, (mutatis-mutandis, according to the Basic lines of a Similar Idea, Already proposed, Earlier since 2010-2011 in Nicosia, by the then Prime Minister of Israel).

(NewsViews express the Ideas of their Writer, and not always of "Eurofora". But We Thank "PanEuropa Germany"'s President, CSU Euro-Politician, and Experienced former Long-Time top MEP at EU Parliament, Bernd Posselt, for sending us for Publication, via his Press Offfice, this Interesting and Topical Question as well as Suggestion, the same Day of the Conclusions for the EU "Conference on Europe's Future" Citizen Panel on Foreign Policy and Europe in the World, that we have just attended in EU Parliament in Strasbourg.

Follows, herewith, the full Original Text, in Deutsch).

56. Andechser Europatag: - Europe's Freedom Idea, as the basis of the World order


56. Andechser Europatag der Paneuropa-Union Germany


17. 10. 2021  Andechs.

With the theme of freedom, the 56. Christian Europe Day of "Paneuropa-Union Deutschland" in the Oberbayerischen Monastery Andechs.

Its president, the CSU European politician Bernd Posselt, quoted Paneuropa founder Richard Graf Coudenhove-Kalergi, who called for resistance to National Socialism immediately before the outbreak of the Second World War, and said: "Europe is not just a continent, but an idea, and this is "Freedom"."

The basis for this is the conception of Human Dignity, which is widely used by Christianity and Humanism. This is also the starting point for the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.

Today, the World is faced with a Test of tears: On the one hand, the possibility for the human being to be Destroyed almost infinitely, and in the digitalised and globalised "world village", everyone is more Dependent than ever before, as the pandemic crisis has proven. On the other hand, the common cultural and ethical basis of the international order will always weaken. In Afghanistan, it has been shown in a dramatic manner that the colonial export of Western ...companies was doomed to failure.

However, this should not mean putting into question the universality of human rights, that the United Nations had, at least in theory, achieved after the Second World War. The way out of this dilemma can only be in a patient and knowledgeable Dialogue between the different world religions and cultures. In order for this to be successful, one must meet one another at eye level, listen to the other, know something about him and, as Pope Francis called for, also "go to the margins". He only creates who "Co-works, loves and suffers". If you think this is an illusion, you can "pack it right."


At the well-attended Meeting of theologians Prof. Veit Neumann with the subject of "Freedom and God", Johannes Modesto, who is responsible for the archdiocese of Munich and Freising for seligration proceedings, with Romano Guardini and the White Rose, the religious philosopher Beate Beckmann-Zöller, with the philosopher and European patroness Edith Stein, (who was murdered in Auschwitz), and the Prague political scientist Blanka Mouralova with the totalitarianism concept of Hannah Arendt.

In an "evening of freedom" at the Klostergasthof, Robert Wild sang for the guitar freedom songs, and Francis Posselt of the Pan-European Youth made himself in a confessed literary form as their "courier" to the voice of the Statue of Liberty. Celebrant of the festive service in honor of the Holy Hedwig in the pilgrimage church was the Polish Minorite Father Prof. Zdzislaw Josef Kijas from Rome. The topic of "Freedom and Courage-engines for a Living Europe" was discussed at the final podium of the professor from Rome, by the psychologist Consuelo Gräfin Ballestrem, the restaurant founder and chef Johannes Belling from France, the Czech diplomant Jan Šícha, the youngest district president Hessens, Johannes Volkmann, as well as the media lawyer Dirk H. Voß.

56. Andechser Europatag: Europas Freiheitsidee als Grundlage der Weltordnung


56. Andechser Europatag der Paneuropa-Union Deutschland

Europas Freiheitsidee als Grundlage der Weltordnung


17. 10. 2021


Andechs. Mit dem Thema Freiheit befaßte sich der 56. Christliche Europatag der Paneuropa-Union Deutschland im oberbayerischen Kloster Andechs.

Ihr Präsident, der CSU-Europapolitiker Bernd Posselt, zitierte den Paneuropa-Gründer Richard Graf Coudenhove-Kalergi, der unmittelbar vor Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkrieges zum Widerstand gegen den Nationalsozialismus aufgerufen und dabei gesagt habe: „Europa ist nicht nur ein Kontinent, sondern eine Idee, und diese ist die Freiheit.“

Grundlage dessen sei die von Christentum und Humanismus weltweit verbreitete Konzeption von der Menschenwürde. Diese bilde auch den Ausgangspunkt der EU-Grundrechtecharta. Heute stehe die Welt vor einer Zerreißprobe: Einerseits sei die Möglichkeit des Menschen zum Zerstören fast unendlich geworden und im digitalisierten wie auch globalisierten „weltweiten Dorf“ sei jeder von jedem abhängiger denn je, wie die Pandemiekrise bewiesen habe. Andererseits werde die gemeinsame kulturelle und ethische Basis der internationalen Ordnung immer schwächer.

In Afghanistan habe sich auf dramatische Weise gezeigt, daß der kolonialistische Export westeuropäischer Gesellschaftsvorstellungen zum Scheitern verurteilt sei. Dies dürfe aber nicht bedeuten, die Universalität der Menschenrechte, wie sie die Vereinten Nationen nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zumindest theoretisch verwirklicht hätten, in Frage zu stellen.

Der Ausweg aus diesem Dilemma könne nur in einem geduldigen und kenntnisreichen Dialog zwischen den verschiedenen Weltreligionen und –kulturen liegen. Damit dieser gelinge, müsse man einander auf Augenhöhe begegnen, dem anderen zuhören, etwas von ihm wissen und, wie dies Papst Franziskus gefordert habe, auch „an die Ränder gehen“. Dies schaffe nur, wer „mitarbeitet, mitliebt und mitleidet“. Wenn man dies für eine Illusion halte, könne man „gleich einpacken.“


In Fachreferaten befaßten sich bei der gut besuchten Tagung der Theologe Prof. Veit Neumann mit dem Thema „Freiheit und Gott“, Johannes Modesto, der bei der Erzdiözese München und Freising für Seligsprechungsverfahren zuständig ist, mit Romano Guardini und der Weißen Rose, die Religionsphilosophin Beate Beckmann-Zöller mit der in Auschwitz ermordeten Philosophin und Europapatronin Edith Stein und die Prager Politikwissenschaftlerin Blanka Mouralova mit dem Totalitarismusbegriff von Hannah Arendt. Bei einem „Abend der Freiheit“ im Klostergasthof sang Robert Wild zur Gitarre Freiheitslieder, und Franziskus Posselt von der Paneuropa-Jugend machte sich in gekonnter literarischer Form als deren „Kurier“ zum Sprachrohr der Freiheitsstatue. Zelebrant des Festgottesdienstes zu Ehren der Heiligen Hedwig in der Wallfahrtskirche war der polnische Minoritenpater Prof. Zdzislaw Josef Kijas aus Rom. Das Thema „Freiheit und Mut – Motoren für ein lebenswertes Europa“ diskutierten beim abschließenden Podium der Professor aus Rom, die Psychologin Consuelo Gräfin Ballestrem, der Restaurantgründer und Küchenchef Johannes Belling aus Frankreich, der tschechische Diplomant Jan Šícha, der jüngste Kreistagspräsident Hessens, Johannes Volkmann, sowie der Medienanwalt Dirk H. Voß.

CFE Panel 4: EUCom VP Suica Leans towards EF Project (Dialogue Citizens-Politicians Before Decisions

Written by ACM
viernes, 15 octubre 2021

cfe__suica__the_moment__ebs__eurofora_400

*Strasbourg/EU Parliament/Angelo Marcopolo/- Just After Welcoming Citizens Participants at the 4rth and Last Panel (on "Europe in the World") Before an Important Plenary due to Start Discussing Citizens' Initial Proposals for the Future of Europe Next Week, EU Commission's vice-President for Democracy, Dubravka Suica, suddenly came Closer than ever, Until Now,  to "Eurofora"'s Project for "Dialogue" between EU Citizens and Politicians, Before Decisions Affecting their Lives and/or Society at large !

-------------------------------

cfe_verhofstadt_15.10.2021_ebs__eurofora_400 

Indeed, Speaking to Accredited Journalists, as "Eurofora a.o., Soon After EU Parliament's Coordinator for the Conference on Europe's Futur, Guy Verhofstadt, former President of  "Liberal" MEPs and Prime Minister of Belgium, (Cf. Verhofstadt's Reply to "EF" Question, previously, at: ..., etc), had Announced that, this "Unique" "Combination of Both Representative" and "Participatory Democracy", in a "2nd Track", at "a PanEuropean Level", was "Requested from Citizens", Already "from the 1st Panel", to be "Made a Permanent Process", and this "Could be among the Final Conclusions of the Conference", Suica Revealed that, in fact, "We (EU) Want to Make European Citizens Part of a European Policy-Drafting Mechanism", as she Characteristicaly stressed.

- "We (EU) Want to Listen to them (Citizens), All the Time", and "Take into Consideration their Ideas and Problems, While Drafting our Policies", EU Commission's vice-President on Democracy underlined, in this regard.  In  Fact, this is "Participatory Democracy and Deliberative (Decision-Making Process) Democracy", taken Together, which "are New Exercises, and they Can Help us a lot", she explained*

*A First Idea towards making Citizens' Dialogue with Politicians before Decisions a Permanent Reality was accepted by French President Macron, agreeing with a relevant proposal by "Eurofora" (Based on the existing EU's Lisbon Treaty), as Early as, Already since April 2018, at Saint-Dié, (i.e. just a Day After he had Inaugurated the 1st EU Citizens' Consultatin at nearby Epinal, (See: http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/macronforcitizensdebatesalsoafter2019.html, + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/macronlauncheseucitizenconsultations.html, etc).

------------------------------

cfe_suica_harasses_selected_citizens_on_panel_4_ebs__eurofora_400 

    => In Consequence, "there is No Coming Back : This Conference (CFE) Will Deepen European Culture, From the Roots Up !", and Opens up a truly European Space !", Suica stressed  earlier in the Plenary, (apparently using Terms familiar from German Philosopher Jurgen Habermas, of Nearby Frankfurt, nowadays in Bavaria, with his Landmark, premonitory Book on "The Structural Changes of the Public Space", i.e. Area for Collective Discussions).

    >>> Indeed, "We (EU) Need" to "Bring Citizens into the Heart of European Decision-Making", she Emphasized.

    Already, "thanks to the Conference on the Future of Europe", "Each Citizen has a Chance to Participate in a PanEuropean Discussion, on Issues that Matters to them". "From Ireland to Malta, from Latvia to Lisbon,..., you Can Exchange your Ideas, have your Voice Heard, and Stimulate Change". "This brings Not Only the Right to Participate, But Also the Possibility to Create Ideas". And "We Want to Listen to them", to "Take into Account" their "Ideas and Contributions", Suica Ambitiously Vowed. "Europe not only wants to Listen to you.... EU Commision is Ready to Follow up Whatever is Agreed by this Conference, (as von Leyen stressed).

- -"It might take us a bit More Time to get Started, But we (EU) are Able to Find Solutions" that work, she boasted. -"Because we want a Union which really Belongs to its People. That it can Inspire, and Protect Everyone of us".

    - This "Euopean Dream" has Already Delivered : Peace, Prosperity, Openess, Equality of Rights, and Our System of Values. But we canNot Guarantee that it will be assumed for Ever, and that it will rest easily...  In Fact, "Our Union has been Disputed, and is being Challenged, Both Internally, and Externally". But, also, "Whenever the Righs of an Individual Person are Denied, our European Dream is Damaged".

    => Therefore, "It's Important that we Regularly Assess Where we Are, and Where we want to Go"...."Take a Time to Look at the Hights and Lows we have come Together". This is also a Time to "See Where we can Expect Better f", Suica welcomed good-faith Criticism, with Lucidity.

----------------------------------------------

    However, it's also a Fact that Nowhere Emerged yet a Crystal-clear and fully-fledged EU Citizens' Right to be Informed, Heard, and Receive Timely Replies to their Critical Observations, which should be Sufficient, Real and Legal, concerning any Proportionate Restriction of their Legitimate private Interests motivated by a General Interest Aim, (all this being placed under Control of a Judge, able to Cancel any Controversial Administrative Measure, eventualy does Not meet all those Conditions), as it should be done according to that kind of "Dialogue", between Citizens and Politicians Before Decisions Affecting their Lives, and/or Society at large, according to "Eurofora"s Proposal : See ...,, etc).

    So that, until this is unequivoqualy done, a Critical Reserve is obviously required from "Eurofora"'s part, on this Key Point.

    +For the Rest, and, Particularly, as it concerns the overall Methods used into Treating the Way that each Pannel of 200 Radomly Chosen Citizens are Consulted by EU Institutions on their Wishes vis a vis the EU Decision-Making process, and certain Major Key Topical Issues on EU's foreseable Future, (Economy, Democracy, Environment, and Foreign Policy), a Surprizing Big Change was Observed by "Eurofora" Today :

cfe_panel_4_x7_more_secret_rooms_eurofora_400 

    - Indeed, instead of only One (1) special Room, Usualy reserved into a Discreet and Remote Location of EU Parliament's Building, for those "Moderators", "Experts", "Secretariat", "Facilitators", and "Observers", etc., who were used to Handle Citizens previously, on the Contrary, Now, there were as Much as ... Seven (7) such special Rooms, reserved to that purpose, (in this Pannel for Foreign Policy and Migration), i.e. a Spectacular Augmentation of X 700 % !...

    As usual, "Eurofora" will Examine Further such Organisational Issues Tomorow, on Saturday, i.e. the Most "Busy" Day.

Macron's Top MEPs to EF: Need for New Drugs+Vaccines against Virus Not Denied (as EU seeks to Move)

Written by ACM
lunes, 11 octubre 2021
macron_key_meps_to_agg_eurofora_400


*Strasbourg/Press Club/Eurofora/- As Europe is the Only Continent in the World where Virus' Infections Grow and even Head towards Record-High levels, (UPDATED), while the Few Controversial Fake "Vaccines" Authorized in the EU (Excluding Various Others, particularly "Classic" type vaccines faithful to Pasteur's basic principles), are Obviously Failing, (See, inter alia, also : http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/pfizerfakevaccineboomsvirusinaustralia.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/fewfakevaccinesfascismcrashes.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/fewfakevaccinesfascismcrashes.html, etc), embattled French President Emmanuel Macron's Top MEPs on Health and WhistleBlowers, Replying to a "Eurofora"s Questions in Strasbourg's Press Club Today, did Not Deny a current Need for New Medical Therapies and Vaccines the soonest.

This Results from a Press Conference where Participated 5 Strasbourg's MEPs of the Presidential Majority, including, mainly, a vice-President of the French National Parliament, former Key Rapporteur of CoE's Assembly on "Whistle-Blowers" : Sylvain Waserman, who has extensively Dealt with Edouard Snowden (See Infra) and Assange's "Wikileaks" (Inter alia, See also: http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/coerapporteurforassangeprotection.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/coerapporteurforassange.html, etc.)related also to various Critical Issues raised by "Eurofora" in the Recent Past about the Virus' Pandemic, as well as another Key French MEP : Thierry Michels, full Member of the relevant Committees on European and Health affairs at the French National Assembly, and Expert at US-Headquartered MultiNational Medical Research Company "Lilly"'s EU outlet here.

----------------------------

eucom_vp_kyriakides_at_pace_coe__eurofora_400 

+Topically, this comes Shortly After EU Health Commissioner Stella Kyriakides, (Cf. various Kyriakides' Replies to "Eurofora"'s Questions, in her former role as CoE Assembly's President, f.ex. at : ..., etc), had just announced EU's Intention to Try to Boost, in Addition, some Drugs against the Virus, at least as long as, Despite the existence of some controversial vaccines, nevertheless, People are Still Infected and/or Dying from COVIT-19. Meanwhile, Kyriakides spoke also at CoE Parliamentary Assemly's Plenary, Recently in Strasbourg, where she pointed at the Paradox of the Achievement of a 70% Vaccination Target in the EU (i.e. in 27 out of PanEuropean CoE's 47 Member States) on Summer 2021, (Limited to Only the 4 which were Authorized), Despite the current Fact that Infections and Deaths still Persist, and sometimes are even Growing in Europe...

The competent EU Commissioner, Replying to various MEPs' Questions, Acknowledged that there is "a Gap" vis a vis Many Citizens that "we Need to Address" on the Issue of those Few and Controversial "Vaccines", But said that the Main Role belongs to the Member States. And, Even if a Question on some WHO-Recognized Vaccines Not Yet Authorized by the EU, was, Unfortunately, "Forgotten" during the PACE's Debate, nevertheless, Kyriakides, Interestingly, Admitted that, normaly, Member States Could Authorize, in principle, Any Vaccine that they Wish, Independently and in Addition to those already Accepted by EU Organisations, (Nonobstant the Fact that, in Real Practice, such a Possibility seems, at least until now, to be Largely Excluded by a Majority of EU Governments, as, f.ex., was seen at the Pressure exerted on some Slovakia or Greece cases, Contrary to that of Hungary, etc).

-------------------------------

+ So, in Our Question, Today, "Eurofora" Observed mainly that those Few so-called "Vaccines" Authorized by EU Bureaucrats currently look to be rather Failing, given, inter alia, also the Fact that Europe has become,; Nowadays, the Only Continent in the World where particularly Infections, but also Deaths are currently Growing, while Even Pseudo-"Vaccinated" Individuals can Infect Other People, in Addition to themselves Becoming Infected, (Contrary to what happens for All "Classic"-style, Real Vaccines, during 2 Centuries since Pasteur's Invention), at least 4 European Countries have Just "Suspended", these days, one of the Controversial "m-RNA" Novel Tools, Affecting the Human Genome, (Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Finland, etc), after UnExplained Deaths Soon after those Jams' Shots, in several Countries accross the World, including France, USA, New Zeland, etc., Following "Astrozeneca"'s Notorious earlier Discredit, to the point that even poor Serbia did Not Find Volunteers to get it, (as Also Australia, and Many Others), being Obliged to "Donate" the Unused stocks to More Poor Countries..., Added to "BioNTech/Pfizer"'s 1st Fall in Stock Markets this August 2021, Following, inter alia, also the revelation that it was Fading Out, Losing efficacy Only in 4 Months Time, and needing a "Boost" (or may be, soon a 4rth Intervention, etc), as well as quite Inefficient vis a vis the New Variant "D", responsible of a massive "Flop" on Infections and Deaths in Australia nowadays, (etc).

=> In Consequence, we Asked a Group of 5 Macron's MEPs, including Top Personalities on Health and Whistleblowers in Europe, (See Infra), whether the French President, who had shown, Initialy, a landmark Ambition for Europe's Role in Succesfully Fighting, throughout the World, that Health-devastating or even Deadly Virus' Pandemic, (including by Breakthrough Scientific Research), wouldn't feel now at least Misleaded by some Controversial, Unscrupulous and/or InCompetent Technocrats or Counsellors, Provoking obviously negative Popular Reactions, (particularly at the Eve of Crucial 2022 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections), so that, inter alia, he Might Agree to Find a practical and realistic Way to frankly convince People to get Sufficient Medication, particularly by Adding some New, No Controversial and more Efficient Medical Therapies and Real, Classic Vaccines, to be Authorized the Soonest possible.

Indeed, Macron had shared his Dream for the possible Invention of "a European Antidote" to that Deadly Vaccine, at a landmark Speech, right from the Start of this Pandemic (See: http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/macronandeuagainstvirus.html, etc), But, on the Contrary, Later-on, Europe appeared Divided, leaving the World's Medical Leadership Only to ...Turko-Americans or Otherwise purely USA, added to Post-BREXIT UK, as far as it concerns a Few Controversial Fake-"Vaccines" related to COVID-19 and Affecting the Human Genome, which proved to be quite InEfficient, sometimes Dangerous, and even UnPopular...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

macron_keymep_michels_to_agg_eurofora_400 

 - What you ("Eurofora") evoked, reminds the fact that, when I worked on the Coordination of European Countries vis a vis that Sanitary Crisis, one of the Ideas that we had Supported was the Creation of an EU Agency able to Face such Public Health Crisis, equiped with some 7 Billions €, for Drugs or Vaccines, including, mainly, by Stimulating Breakthrough Medical Research, observed Top French MEP Thierry Michels in Reply. This may become quite Topical, Nowdays, in the framework of the 2021-2022 Conference on Europe's Future, while, in the Past, almost Nobody spoke about such a development, he pointed out...

 + Meanwhile, indeed, EU Health Commissioner Stella Kyriakides has Just proposed something apparently Similar, as she described in her above-mentioned intervention, Recently, at CoE's Assembly (Comp. Supra), All EU Member States have just Benefited from EU's Joint Purchace Strategy on aquiring Vaccines against the Virus, and the EU has notoriously emerged at the 1st Place in the World for the percentage of Vaccinations among its Population, as Michels reminded, (citting also, f.ex., about 80% for France, i.e. much More than Switzerland, etc).

=> Now, concerning your ("Eurofora"'s) Question on the eventual Authorisation of New Vaccines, we (EU) are Waiting, f.ex., that Producer Countries, as also Russia, China, and/ors, Present their Files to the competent European Authorities,  as EMA, etc. But it's true that, f.ex. Russia is Not precisely an Example in Vaccinations' percentage, while, at any case, the EU brought us a way to collectively Manage that Health Crisis, Michels concluded, (apparently Skipping, however, the Fact that the WHO has Already Recognized 2 Chinese Vaccines near Pasteur's "Classic" principles, which have Not Yet been Authorized by the EMA, as "Eurofora" reminded)...

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

french_assembly_vp_waserman_to_agg_eurofora_400 

++ Vice-President of French Parliament, and Rapporteur on "WhistleBlowers", initialy of the CoE, and Now of the National Assembly of France too, MEP Sylvain Waserman, Replying also to "Eurofora"'s Question, prefered to Focus  mainly on the point concerning Macron's Decision-Making on Key Issues about the Deadly Virus' Pandemic Crisis, in order to Challenge the view that the French President might, eventualy, be, sometimes Influenced by some Bureaucrats :

- Indeed, he referred, inter alia, Also to certain Crucial and Difficult Choices, Already made in some Strategic Importance Dillemas, including, f.ex., the DeConfinement of Summer 2020, etc., Stressing that President Macron had always carefully "Heard", before deciding, what several Scientific Experts and other stakeholders had to advise, But, Finaly, had Chosen Independently of that, according to what he sincerely Believed to be better for the People, the Country, and all Europe. And he observed, in this regard, Also the Fact that, Despite some undue Warnings about Alleged "Catastrophes" branded by certain sides, Nevertheless, such Risks have Not materialized at all. On  the Contrary, Waserman pointed, on this occasion, at Macron and Merkel's notorious Success to broker a landmark Franco-German and afterwards EU Agreement, on July 2020 in a Brussels' exceptionaly Long Summit, for a New kind of Strong joint Financial Support to a European Recovery Plan, (currently Starting to be Implemented from 2021), etc.

=> Therefore, he Obviously implied that, Also on "Eurofora"s above-mentioned Question about Eventual New Therapies and/or Vaccines, an Adequate Decision Could be made asap, withOut any Undue Influence by anyone else.

+ Interestingly, as far as it concerns, in Addition, Public OvberSight, Transparency and Democratic Accountability of various such Hard Choices, after the Adoption of his 1st Report on "Whistle-Blowers" by CoE's PanEuropean Assembly, (Following a long Investigation, which included even a landmark Video-Press Conference with World-Famous dissident Edouard Snowden at the CoE, where "Eurofora" participated actively : See http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/whistleblowersineuandcoe.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/snowdenfriendshelpwhistleblowers.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/snowdenlaughonlongmuellerspyingtrump.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/muellerand911.html, etc), Waserman Examined this same Key Issue also in relation with EU's similar, but not identical, latest Regulation, in order to Conclude in a New Report for a Draft Legislation in France for the 1st Time, which would be Officially Presented, for Final Adoption by the National Assembly, in Paris Soon. (That may cover, also, at least some among "Eurofora"'s relevant Press Investigatory and Critical Publications on Crucial Issues about the Virus' Pandemic : Comp. Supra +).

Czechs Vote pro-Babis' Majority, But Late Count +Health Issue try to Undermine it...

Written by ACM
domingo, 10 octubre 2021

czech_flag__prague_castle_pininterest__eurofora_400

*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- In what might probably be marked as a Record-High Bad Faith in Establishment's Medias, Vote Counting, and Strange Health Care services, Prague, at Europe's Heart, Before Chairing the EU Next Year (2022), gave, in Fact, a Landmark Popular Support to the Main Ideas and Values Supported by its embattled Prime Minister Andrej Babis, who, (against False Appearances), practicaly Succeeded into stimulating Almost an absolute Majority of 54% among the Voting People !

This was Against a distand Minority with Not even 44% of Votes, in a dispersed Opposition, hastily and clumsily set up in some Shaky pseudo-"Coalitions", among Even Opposed or Heteroclite, various Small Parties, (Including with ...Pro-Babis' Ideas in certain cases : See Infra), which attempt to Hide the Fact that those who are Mainly Opposed to the current Prime Minister on Topical Key Issues, Lost badly, being the most Rejected by the People (Ibid)...

Spectacularly United, in Public, Together with the Prime Ministers of Hungary, Victor Orban, and Slovenia's Janos Jansa (currently EU President-in-office for 2021), as well as USA former Vice-President Mike Pence, at Budapest's Castle recent Heads of State/GovernmentSummit for Europe's "Demography", and Against Replacement by a Massive Immigation, from Non-European Foreign Countries, mainly Islamic, wihOut any Cultural Integration in the History and Values of the Host Country, some Days ago, Babis, (already a Critical, Outsider element in EU Politics), was Suddenly Hit, at the Last Minute Before the Election 2021, by unproven allegations Against his personal Integrity by Mediatic so-called "Pandora" Papers, where some Accused him to have, Reportedly, a link to ..."a Castle in France', through Czech off shore Companies, Bought ...Since 2009" (sic !) ...i.e. about 12 (Twelve) Years Earlier, (which, at any case, Already Belonged to Other Czech Companies Also Before that)...

Babis immediately Denounces Fake "Slandering", and observes that this is "Not any International" move, But Only something pushed by a "Mafia" in his own Country, Czechia, which seeked Revenge for his Anti-Corruption Fight, during Many Years, Since 2013, (See Infra). However, Despite the Fact that Even "Wikipedia", (which has an Extensive Record of Many and Various Accusations against him) does Not Publish that rocambolesque Claim Hitting him, Nevertheless, a Few Days Before the Vote, Only the Words : "Babis ...  Pandora Papers ...Chateau in France" (sic ! ) Repeated by a lot of Establishment's Medias without Explanations, reportedly Might have Misled some Voters, serving as a Pretext for an (Otherwise Suspect) Blow up of Opposition's Bulletins OverNight, and/or a Simultaneous Exceptional "Disappearance" of some pro-Babis Candidates' usual Bulletins, Dissuading eventual Denonciations of Last Minute "Fraud" in favor of his Opponents at the Late Night Counting, (almost as f.ex. at the Infamous "Biden v. Trump" Row on the Results mainly of Controversial Postal/Absentees' and/or Electronic Votes OverNight on November 2020)...  

So, his Competitors, echoed by most Establishment's Medias, Hurry up to Claim an alleged Tight "Victory" for them, at the Last Minute, ...Even if a Careful Analysis of the Votes, on the Contrary, Reveals a quite Strong Popular Support for pro-Babis' Political Views by a clear Majority of Czech People, and several Converging Facts provoke legitimate Suspicions of probable Electoral Fraud Against him, (See Infra) !

Indeed, all the First Indications on the Electoral Date, when the Ballot Boxes Closed, was that Babis was clearly Winning the race, with his Big Party "ANO" (means "Yes !") coming clearly 1st, with Slightly Less than 30% of the Votes, and most probably due to Govern anew.

+ This was Expected to be done, with the conditional Cooperation, inter alia (See Infra), Also of an Atypical New Rightist Party, credited with about 10% of the Votes : that of "Freedom and Direct Democracy", (Created by Japan-Origin Tomio Okamura, mutatis-mutandis, as Also mainstream "PanEuropa" movement Founder, Coudenhove-Kallergi, Born at Tokyo by a Japanese Mother and a European, Austro-Hungarian Father), as well ns with a smaller and atypical, Old "Social-Democrat" Party. In fact, Prime Minister Babis had Succeeded to broker an Original Alliance between atypical Rightist and Leftist Parties ! (See Also Infra).

That's why he was Already Supported Even by an Historic "Communist" (sic !) Party, to which were Expected to be Added, this time (from 2021 Elections) Also Many Other Small Parties, particularly New ones :  Such, as, f.ex., of the "Oath", just Created by the former Attorney who had Denounced a Large Corruption in a Governing Party Back on 2013, Against which Babis Entered Politics for the 1st Time, Created his own Party ("ANO"), and Became Deputy Prime Minister, and Finance Minister, (i.e. a Potential new Ally, who Succeeded Now to Arrive 1st among All Small Partis !). As well as probably Supported and by anOther Small Party, which had just managed to Double its Voters : the "Free Citizens" Party, of an Atypical Right, until recently Member of Nigel Farage's Group of MEPs in EU Parliament. Perhaps Backed also by the Small Rightist Party "Free Block" or "Sovereignity", which has just Tripled his Votes between 2013 and 2021, (etc).

---------------------------

Facing them was Not Any Big Party at all, But Only 2 Coalitions, both composed from Various Medium or rather Small Parties, often of quite Different Orientations :

    - F.ex. the 3 Parties' Coalition "Together", with Two Center-Right Parties : The "Christian-Democrats", and  "Tradition" (alias "TOP 09"), as well as the Conservative "ODS" ("Civic Democratic") Party, whose Joint Results Approached Babis' Party Result.

    - Most Probably Allied to the Heteroclite "Pirates" and "various Mayors" (sic !) Coalition, simply Named "Pirates and Mayors" (re-sic !!), Expected to score a Little-bit More than the Above-mentioned Rightists of "Freedom and Direct Democracy", Babis' Allies (Comp.Supra).

+ But these Dispersed Opposition Parties had Obviously Exhausted their Political Forces on 2021, withOut Hope to Attract Any Eventual Ally among various Smaller Parties, (Except, perhaps, of the "Greens", who Fell Now Down to Less than Only ...0,9% (sic !) of the Votes, Becoming Irrelevant)...

----------------------------------------------

=> Finally, (and Even taking into Account those Last-Minute Changes, UnExpectedly made by Late Counting and that Suspicious Last-Minute Slandering of Babis, with Fake Accusations : Comp. Supra + Infra), the Results of the Czech People's Votes were the Following :

- Leaning FOR Prime Minister Babis : His own Party "ANO" ("Yes") 27,13% (First in MPs : 72), + Atypical Rightists of "Democracy and Direct Democracy" 10%, New Party "Oath"  4,68%, "SocialDemocrats" 4,65%, "Communist" Party 3,60%, "Free Citizens" 2,76%, "Sovereignity/Free Block" 1,33%, etc. => i.e. a Total of an Absolute Majority of Czech People's casted valid Votes at about 54 % !

- Opposition AGAINST him : Coalition "Together" 27,79% (But Second in MPs: 71), Coalition "Pirates + Mayors" 15,61%, "Greens" 0,9%, etc. => I.e. a Total of an obvious Minority of People's Votes at about Only 44%...

---------------------------------------------------------------

>>> Nevertheless, a strange Late Counting of Ballots, Suddenly seems to have Systematicaly Altered, at the Last Minute, OverNight, severalé Initialy much More "pro-Babis" Czech People's Vote Results, (Comp. Supra), Pushing towards an Astonishingly Harsh Elimination of Many such Votes and Even of Too Many Small Political Parties, Old and New, Favorable to the current, embattled Czech Prime Minister :

- In Fact, ALL Small Parties which would Cooperate with Babis, Suddenly saw the Number of Ballots giving them Votes, Systematicaly Slashed, Reduced, Cut and Thrown Lower than the Crucial Threshhold of 5% Needed in order to have any MPs in the Parliament, as NEVER BEFORE in the History of the Country !

Indeed, f.ex., the "SocialDemocrats" (Part of Babis' Government) were thus Excluded from the Parliament, for the 1st Time since 1990 (i.e. practically Since the Fall of Berlin Wall) !... And the "Communist" Party of Czechia, (which Supported Babis' Government), was Also Excluded from the Parliament, for the 1st Time (Since the Liberation from the NAZIs) on 1945-1948 ! Even The Frontrunner, New and Biggest among All Kinds of Small Parties, the "Oath", (Created Now by the Attorney Famous for having Revealed the Largest Governemental Corruption in the Country, back on 2013 : Comp. Supra + Infra), was Excluded in an Identical way... Same Methods Abused also OverNight in order to Exclude anOther 2 or 3 pro-Babis' Small Parties, Old or New, (Comp. Supra).

=> Thus, a Total of More than 915.307 valid Votes casted by Czech Citizens, (Almost 1 Million of People), in a Country like Czechia, with just 10 Millions of Inhabitants, ie. the Equivalent of More than 17% of the Votes, something Like the 3rd Biggest Political Party in that Country, were Entirely Wiped Out of the Democratic System, just by that Strange, Last-Minute OverNight re-Counting of the Ballots, (a Notoriously too "Easy" Moment for Eventual Fraud)...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    + Remains, as Last Resort, the traditional and Crucial Decision of atypical and popular President Milos Zeman, on Whom he is Now going to Give an Official Mandate to try to Form the New Government of the Country.

    A Meeting between Zeman and Prime Miniser Babis had been Scheduled for Sunday, October 10. Popular President Zeman has Already given to Others and to Babis himself a Mandate to try to forge a Government Even with a Minority, at the Beginning, and has Vowed to Always choose the Head of the Biggest Party in the Parliament : I.e. Now too Babis' "ANO" ("Yes !"), which has Just Got the Biggest Number of MPs (72, instead of 71 for "Together"), and is a real Autonomous Party, Instead of a Mere Coalition of Smaller Parties, as those of the Opposition, (Comp. Supra).

    >>> But, Suddenly : - AnOther Last-Minute Patatrak ! The President of the Country, reportedly, is obliged to Enter in a Hospital, with his Health Suddenly Affected by UnKnown yet Events, for This precise Moment ! And Rccently, Suspecting a kind of Sympathy, between Zeman and Babis, the Opposition, and particularly the "Pirates", had Asked to Give a part of that Competence to Name a Prime Minister, instead, to the Speaker of the Parliament...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

+ Meanwhile, however, it's Also the main Political Choices, made by the Czech People's Votes, which Reveal anOther Crystal-clear pro-Babis' positions Preference, by Droping his Most Fiercely Opposed Adversaries :

>>> Indeed, Even Among the Various Components of that Opposition's 2 Coalitions (Comp. Supra), the "Pirates", who were, Notoriously, the Most Aggressive Against Babis' Counter -  Massive Non-European, mainly Islamic Migration Policy, and were Accused by him to Push for LGBT Lobby Interests, "Same Sex" Marriage between Homosexuals, Drugs' Legalisation, and even to "Destroy the Visegrad Group" Alliance with Hungary, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, etc., Surprizingly Lost an Auful Lot of Votes and MPs, Falling Down to Only ... 4 MPs, (Instead of the 22 MPs they had Before), i.e. Losing - 18 MPs Less ! To the point that, If they were Not in Coalition with Various "Independent Mayors", they Might Even have been Excluded from the Parliament, (as having become a Too Small Party)...

+ In Addition, among the 3 Participants in the Other, "Together" Coalition of the Opposition, it's Not the 2 Center or "Center-Right" (EPP) Parties, But Only the "Conservative" Party of "ODS" (alias "Civic Democratic" Party), with its Anti-Mass Migration, Critical vis a vis the EU, and pro-Cultural Integration Policies, who Won the 1st Place. "ODS" is Also reportedly Favorable to a Cooperation with "ANO", in case Babis withdraws.

++ Moreover, the FrontRunner Party of the Opposition is Not Just Anyone : "ODS" (alias "Civic Democracy"), Indeed, was Governing the Country during ...the Biggest and Wider-Spread ever Scandal of Corruption in the whole History of Czechia, Back on 2013, when Even the Then Prime Minister himself, Together with Many Ministers, other Top Politicians, etc., had been Obliged, by a Growing Series of Damning Revelations and Scandalous Findings, to Quit, one after another, Until an Entirely New Governing Team was Elected to Replace them All, while Many had Already been Detained into Prisons, as profoundly Corrupted, in an alleged Plot to Influence the State for their Personal Enrichement... In the Meantime, about 400 Policemen had Raided the Government's Offices, and of various Top Lobbyists, Confiscated  Tens of Kgs in Gold, etc., as several Security Officers (even of the Military) were Accused for "Abuse of Power" and "Corruption", including for having Bribed MPs, Manipulated the Prime Minister's Wife, etc. Andrej Babis, originaly a Businesman, had notoriously Entered in Politics then, and Created his succesful Party "ANO", in order to, precisely, Fight against such kind of Widespead State Corruption (Comp. Supra).                                                             

=> In Consequence, (and given Also a Growing Number of various New Small Parties in Czechia, More radically Opposed to Mass Migration, EU Bureaucracy, LGBT, etc., that "Eurofora" had Not even the Time to Mention here), the Question seems Raised, Whether those who obviously Strived to Undermine Babis' Government, (Comp. Facts cited Supra), Might, Eventually, Soon Find themselves at an Even "Worse" Situation for their Interests, Than Before...

The official presentation of a "Program" respecting People's choices voted in the June 7, 2009 EU Elections, to be debated in EU Council and EU Parliament during its 1st Session on July in Strasbourg, is the No 1 Priority, according to Democratic principles, for the Franco-German axis, said the main winners at the ballot box, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angie Merkel.

They stressed  that the New EU Commission's President must have a "Program" in favor of an EU which "protects" its Citizens, regulates financial markets and aims at a "Political" Europe" : a wording they have used as incompatible with Turkey's controversial EU bid.

They also declared ready for a "political" endorsment of "Mr. Barroso's candidacy" in June's EU Council, considering that an official decision would have to be made after EU Parliament's debates and votes, possibly from next month (July), with the legally necessary final acceptance shortly after Lisbon Treaty's entry into force, hoped for September or October.


- "A Program, and Mr. Barroso" : This resumes, in substance, the anouncements made by Sarkozy and Merkel, on the question of current EU Commission's President, Barroso's declared wish to succeed to himself for a second mandate, to be extended during the following 5 years.

 In their 1st meeting after EU Elections, they observed that "the Franco-German axis counted in European Elections' campaign... But, we both keep a realistic view : We saw the number of those who abstained, and we must absolutely give them an answer. We also see the disilusionment of an important number of Europeans vis a vis Europe, and we are aware of the responsibilities we have".

 - The "Duty" of the new EU Commission's President, after June 7, 2009 EU Elections' result, "is to act for a Europe which protects the Europeans, to commit himself into working for a better Regulation of Financial transactions, ... and to have a Political will for Europe", underlined Sarkozy.

Therefore, "we have asked M. Barroso... to clarify, to officialy present the intentions he has", he anounced.

- "We want to speak also about the Programme", explained Merkel.

- "It's important that for the next EU Parliament's mandate (2009-2014) we take the right Decisions for Europe.  Obviously on Persons, but mainly Decisions on Issues", she stressed.

- "It's not simply a question of a Person, it's also a question of a Programme". We are "really asking Mr. Barroso to commit himself on a Program, and on Principles, on Values", Sarkozy added.

EU President-in-office, Czech Prime Minister Jan Fischer, accepted the Franco-German stance :

- "Barroso must present his Programme. The Czech Presidency agrees with that", Fischer reportedly said later, after meeting Sarkozy.

But Press reports from Brussels claimed that Barroso had preferred to be officially appointed by EU Council since June, (i.e. next week), "because this was implied by the current Treaty of Nice, according to him", and considered any delay until the possible ratification of the new, Lisbon Treaty on September/October, as "undemocratic".

- "At any case, independently of what Germany and France ask, it's also EU Parliament's wish". "We shall propose Mr Barroso's candidacy... But even in the framework of Nice Treaty, EU Parliament has to be associated in this Decision", the French President observed.

If this is correctly done, then "we support Mr. Barroso's candidature", and "if the (EU) Parliament agrees, we might ratify this decision since July", (i.e. next month), they both said.

- "France and Germany support Baroso's candidacy, But we want to speak also on the Program. We believe that this Program should be established in close cooperation with EU Parliament, and that's why we have followed an appropriate way", said Merkel.  - If EU Parliament wants, this election can take place on July,  but this must be done in full agreement.

- "We shall support Mr. Barroso's candidacy, without doubt", said Sarkozy. "But we have asked from Mr. Barroso, as I told him yesterday, to put into detail.. his intentions, at the eve of his 2nd mandate, if the situation avails itself.


    France and Germany "don't want to take an Official Legal Decision by writting" during "the next (EU) Council" (on June 18-19), declared Sarkozy.  Because they prefer, at this stage, only "a Political decision" on June, "so that we (EU Council) can work together with EU Parliament", which starts to meet only Next Month, since July in Srasbourg, "leaving a Legal decision by writting for later".

    - "If the Conditions are fuillfiled in EU Parliament, we (EU Council) are ready to give the agreement and make it offficial", said Merkel

    - "But, now we are working in the base of Nice Treaty. If tommorow we want to work in the spirit of Lisbon Treaty, we have to find a proper way", she added.

    - "Of course it's Legally complicated, because we are going to make a Political proposal to the forthcoming Council, for an EU Commission's President, on the basis of Nice Treaty : So, we (EU Council) will not appoint the Commissioners. Only the President.  If EU Parliament agrees, it could endorse this position on July", explained Sarkozy.

    But, on Autumn, "if Ireland ratifies Lisbon Treaty, there will be, at any case, a 2nd Decision, to appoint the Commission's President, this time on the basis of Lisbon treaty, and then, we, the EU Member States, would have to appoint (also) the EU Commissioners", he added.

    As for the precise Timing :  - "Everything is suspended until the Irish vote... Now, we must all make everything possible to help Ireland to say "Yes"" to Lisbon Treaty... The Irish Referendum, ..will take place either on September or on October. It's a Question which depends on the Irish. And,  then, we shall have the Choice of the Candidates for the permanent Institutions of Europe".

    However, "if Ireland says No, we, French and Germans, have to assume our responsibilities, and we'll do so", he concluded.

    But British and Swedish governments were reportedly eager to have a final EU Council decision on Barroso since this month, on June's European Council. While the other EU Member Countries are divided, several of them preferring to wait until EU Parliament pronounces itself, on July, and/or until Lisbon Treaty might be ratified by Ireland at the beginning of the Autumn. Barroso's current mandate ends on November.

    There are also various, contradictory and/or unpredictable reactions inside EU Parliament vis a vis Barroso's wish to continue a 2nd mandate, because many MEPs are openly or secretly opposed, reluctant, or hesitating.

    In the biggest EU Countries, as France and Germany, EU Citizens voted on June 2009 EU Elections for a renovated, non-technocratic but Political Europe which cares for its Citizens, with an Identity, Values and Borders, declared incompatible with Turkey's controversial EU bid, by mainstream, pro-European Governing Parties. Similar choices were also supported in several other small or medium EU Countries.

    On the contrary, whenever, in other Countries, Governing and other mainstream Parties didn't make these choices or eluded them, EU Citizens massively voted for euro-Sceptics whenever they were the only ones to to promise anti-bureacratic change and oppose Turkey's demand to enter into the EU, (f.ex. in the UK, Netherlands, etc).

    It's seems to be an Open Question whether Sarkozy and Merkel's conditions will be really accepted by Barroso, who was appointed on 2004 in a different political context, (with Socialist Prime Ministers in Germany, France, etc), had rejected in the Past the idea of EU becoming "equal to the USA" as "ridiculous", and pushed for Turkey's contoversial EU bid, trying to "soften" or contain the changes desired by the People who voted for Merkel and Sarkozy with another policy vis a vis Turkey on 2005 in Germany and on 2007 in France, as they did all over Europe on 2009.

    In addition to many EPP Governments, it's 3 remaining Socialist Prime Ministers : Gordon Brown in the UK, Zapatero in Spain, and Socrates in Prortugal, who support Barroso, as well as Liberal Swedish Prime Minister Reinfeldt. But their Parties lost the June 2009 EU Elections.

    Questioned whether there was still "Time" for "other" possible "Candidates", Sarkozy and Merkel did not deny, nor made any comment on that, but simply said that "it's not for us to make publicity for any candidates. We anounced our choice ("A Program, and Mr. Barroso"). But we respect any other candidate".

    Among various other names cited are former Belgian Prime Minister Verhofstadt, former UNO's Human Rights Commissioner Mary Robinson of Ireland, Italian former EU Commission's vice-President Monti, etc. Meanwhile, Luxembourg's PM Juncker, (who had been unanimously accepted by EU Council for EU Commission's Presidency on 2004, but refused), announced his intention to resign from "EuroGroup"'s Chair. Thus, he might be available for another Top EU job.

    As "EuroFora"'s "opinion" said (See publication dated 9/6/09) : - "If the current candidates (i.e. Barroso, etc) to the Top EU jobs promise and guarantee to respect People's democratic choices, then, it's OK".

"Otherwise, Europe must find new candidates, really motivated and able to implement these democratic choices of the People."

    Because, "in Democracy, the forthcoming choices for EU's Top Jobs,...should be made according to EU Citizens' Votes in June 7, 2009 European Elections, and main EU Governments' strategic policies".
