Trump’s desire to back out from JCPOA is a violation of international law

28 Dicembre 2016 BreakingNews @en di

Alexander Azadgan,a multi-awarded professor of Strategic Global Management & International Political Economy, said in an interview with the Tasnim News Agency: “This was an agreement between Tehran and Washington plus five other superpowers. So Mr. Trump, you know, by expressing such a fanatical desire to want to back out of this deal, would be (acting) in violation of international law,” for him nothing has been implemented yet but even a rhetoric level that Mr. Trump has exhibited is very dangerous. The situation is complicated “Now, Russia and China have clearly been Iran’s allies throughout this whole process or procedure and on the other hand we have these two nations of Britain and France who have been playing a very corrosive role in the Middle East and their ships always sail in the same direction as Washington.”

Donald Trump’s “no conservative” attitude in domestic politics could not work as well for the foreign policy

21 Dicembre 2016 BreakingNews @en di

Surely the President-elect Trump is not a “conservative” in domestic politics, although not yet begun his term has already changed the rules of the game and imposed his line. If his attitude in domestic politics could work, in foreign policy risks to be extremely harmful to the US. Previous administrations have worked since World War II until today to maintain balance at the global level and at the same time trying to promote American interests, Trump wants to make America great again but diplomatic tensions with China, the unclear ideas about the future of Middle East and the dangerous approach to Russia risk to derail what his predecessors have built with difficulty over the past 70 years.

David Friedman, a lawyer with no diplomatic experience, was selected by President-elect Trump as new Ambassador in Israel. Friedman is a staunch supporter of the Israeli occupation of the western part of the city of Jerusalem, which illegaly is controlled by the Israelis since ’67. The most worrying thing is the determination of Trump to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Even Obama and Bush had the same tought, but during their Presidency they both changed their minds, because of the risk of breaking the precariously diplomatic relations between Israel and Palestine of wich US are the guarantors.

Trump may choose Exxon’s CEO Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State

12 Dicembre 2016 BreakingNews @en di

The appoint of the new Secretary of State seems to be closer. Trump met in New York Rex Tillerson, CEO of oil giant Exxon Mobil. The President-elect seems to have definitively rejected the names of Rudy Giuliani and David Petraeus, of course also the name of Tillerson doesn’t excites the leaders of the GOP, Tillerson is a great businessman, but he has no experience neither political neither diplomatic but boasts of important friendships, with Putin for example, and an enviable career that has taken him to sit face to face with some of the most powerful leaders of the world.
