Vorgezogene Neuwahlen in Riga

Ein Korruptionsskandal brachte die Stadtregierung in Schwierigkeiten

Riga hätte eigentlich erst im Sommer 2021 wählen sollen. Doch ein erneuter Korruptionsskandal brachte die Stadtregierung in Schwierigkeiten. Rund zehn Jahre bestimmten die Parteien „Saskaņa“ (S)/ „Harmonie“ und „Gods kalpot Rīgai!“ (GKR)/ „Es ist eine Ehre, Riga zu dienen!“ die Politik der lettischen Metropole, und dies trotz zahlreicher systematischer Korruptionsversuche. Lange Zeit wurden alle Angriffe auf die Stadtregierung durch den damaligen Bürgermeister der Stadt, Nils Ušakovs, abgewehrt, der seit dem letzten Jahr Abgeordneter im Europaparlament ist.

Eskalation im Himalaya?

Die Zusammenstöße entlang der „Line of Actual Control“, die regionale Perspektive und Auswirkungen für Europa

Anfang September erreichten die territorialen Auseinandersetzungen zwischen den Atommächten China und Indien im Himalaya einen erneuten unrühmlichen Höhepunkt: An den Ufern des Pangong Tso fielen dabei zum ersten Mal seit 1975 Schüsse. Wenngleich bisher keine Opfer dokumentiert sind, ist die Situation alarmierend. Aktuell ziehen sich Gespräche zwischen beiden Ländern hin, um die Situation zu deeskalieren. Die Scharmützel sind Teil eines zunehmenden Antagonismus zwischen China und großen Teilen der westlichen und demokratischen Welt und haben das Potential, zu einer Neuordnung des Kräftegleichgewichts in Asien beizutragen.
