The great teacher on international national-security law, Alexander Mercouris, headlined on December 18th, and explained there in a one-hour video, in very clear terms, what Putin is proposing in each of these two documents, and what the significance of those proposals are, though those proposals will be the start of either serious negotiations for a fundamental change in the current world-system, or else WW III.
This will be a major turning-point in history, either way.
U.S.-and-allied arms-manufacturers will no doubt be terrified that their decades-long gravy trains are finally being seriously challenged, and the billionaires who are riding those trains will be doing everything they possibly can to continue the current direction of those trains, ever-closer toward WW III (and ever-bigger arms-sales).

Data out of South Africa continues to dispel doomsday fearmongering.
COVID-19 hospitalizations in South Africa, the epicenter of the Omicron outbreak, have dropped by 25% over the last week, once again indicating that the variant is milder than previous strains.
According to data from the country’s National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD), the number of people in hospitals suffering from the virus has sunk to 5,600.

Professor Tom Moultrie, a top demographer at the University of Cape Town, reacted to the news by remarking, “It really does seem as if…my country will…
”Having participated in 19 and 20 was like a dream of every revolutionary
militant, which is to bring down a government, we were part of that as the ‘New MAS’, it came from several years of resistance and direct actions such as looting, where people were organized to solve their immediate problems.

Guatemala: la revuelta de las niñas en bicicleta sostiene la protesta social
Las detenciones arbitrarias durante una protesta en noviembre de 2020 desmovilizaron a la sociedad civil guatemalteca. Desde entonces, son los movimientos de mujeres y niñas los que se han alzado como la principal oposición a las injusticias que asedian este país.
En una mañana soleada de febrero de 2021, una caravana de niñas y adolescentes en bicicletas recorrió la Sexta Avenida de la Ciudad de Guatemala, la calle más transitada de la zona. Viajaron desde Chimaltenango, a 40 kilómetros, y portaban gorras, carteles y cintas con la palabra “Justicia”.
Días antes, el 9 de febrero, Sharon Figueroa, una niña de 8 años, desapareció cuando montaba en bicicleta en el patio de su casa en el departamento de Petén, ubicado al norte del país. Un día después fue localizado su cuerpo sin vida y dos personas fueron capturadas por…
