Depois da Revolução Laranja

E andarem a atiçar um país dividido entre a russofilia e o pro-ocidentalismo interesseiro...

Lembro-me que o José Manuel Fernandes tem um edital em que dizia ter dio o Dia mais importante da Europa, ou coisa do género.

Geopolitica

...essa ciência estatista obscura que traçará o caminho até à última Guerra Mundial.

Com esta mania jacobina de querer levar o bem ao mundo e estender o intervencionismo revolucionário a todos os cantos do mundo, a Rússia já aprovou restrições a todas as ONGs, porque alega compreensivelmente entre outras coisas, do dedo da CIA e outros, nas revoluções com as cores do arco-íris (laranja, rosa, purpura, etc) nos processos políticos de todos os países que a rodeiam, com o intuito de colocar a NATO em todos os jardins à porta de sua casa. A história não aconselha nada a tal, tirar partido da debilidade momentânea de grandes nações para ir ocupando o seu espaço natural, como também se percebe que não é nada aconselhável (nem sequer legitimo) que processos de normalização política sejam influenciados externamente. O outro efeito é já ter colocado a Rússia e a China numa posição de aliados estratégicos. O que o comunismo não conseguiu o intervencionismo dos Estados "capitalistas" alcançou.

PS: parece que já ouço o ingénuo, juvenil, bem intencionado e perigoso pensamento sobre como tudo isso é para levar a (social) democracia ao mundo...

Officials: US ship in China spat was hunting subs

WASHINGTON—The U.S. Navy ship that got into a scrape with five Chinese vessels last weekend in the South China Sea was looking for threats such as submarines -- presumably Chinese -- in waters that China claims as its own, defense officials acknowledged Tuesday.
...
"They seem to be more militarily aggressive," National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair told members of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

China deal ends for Credit Suisse

Reuters
Published: February 24, 2009
SHANGHAI: Industrial and Commercial Bank of China's fund venture with Credit Suisse said Tuesday that it had ended an overseas investment consulting agreement with the Swiss bank after the venture built up its own asset management expertise.
The venture, whose year-old overseas investment fund has lost nearly half its value since its opening, said it was the first to cancel its foreign adviser arrangement but said more Chinese funds would follow suit as they gain experience investing overseas.
...
Chinese fund managers, banks and brokerages scrambled to team up with overseas investment banks like Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers Holdings to sell overseas investment products after the government started the QDII program in 2006.

But the global financial crisis cut the value of QDII products and sapped investor demand. As of Feb. 6, ICBC Credit Suisse's QDII fund posted net assets per unit of 0.556 yuan, compared with a face value of 1 yuan, or 15 cents.
"This should be China's first QDII product to invest abroad independently," said Li Datao, a marketing representative at ICBC Credit Suisse Asset Management. "I believe that as more Chinese talent with overseas investment experience returns home, more QDII products will become independent."
...
In September 2008, China's first QDII fund, managed by Hua An Fund Management, halted redemptions after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, its investment adviser and partner.

China 'worried' about safety of U.S. Treasuries
By Bettina Wassener
Published: March 13, 2009

HONG KONG: China, the world's biggest holder of United States government debt, on Friday expressed concern about the safety of those assets as American deficits have ballooned with costly stimulus and bailout packages aimed at rescuing the economy.

The Chinese prime minister, Wen Jiabao, said he was "worried" about its holdings of U.S. Treasuries and called on the United States to provide assurances that the investment was safe. His remarks came at a news conference in Beijing after the final session of the National People's Congress, the Chinese legislature.
...
Those Chinese investments have helped assure the stability of the U.S. Treasury market despite the economic convulsions of the last year, and some economists have warned of alarming consequences should the Chinese investments stop propping up the market for American public-sector debt.
...
Wen sought added reassurances on that front on Friday, calling on the United States to "maintain its good credit, to honor its promises and to guarantee the safety of China's assets."
