Beijing had already won before the Trump-Xi summit even started

Fans of Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace all have their own reasons for loving the epic novel. Some read it as a story of personal growth, reflected in Prince Andrei’s spiritual quest. Others favour its portrayal of the Russian aristocracy in the early 19th century. As for myself, the novel punctured the myth of the military genius – not just Napoleon’s. The book’s final section on Tolstoy’s philosophy of history presented the most significant challenge to G.W.F. Hegel – specifically regarding French...

Brics termina reunião sem declaração conjunta, expondo divisões sobre guerra no Oriente Médio


Brics Reuters Os chanceleres do Brics encerraram nesta sexta-feira (15) uma reunião de dois dias em Nova Déli, na Índia, sem consenso para divulgar uma declaração conjunta. As divergências entre os países do bloco, especialmente sobre a guerra envolvendo Irã, Estados Unidos e Israel, levaram o país anfitrião a publicar apenas uma nota da presidência expondo os desacordos. O principal impasse envolveu o posicionamento sobre o conflito no Oriente Médio. Segundo autoridades iranianas, Teerã pressionou para que o Brics condenasse os ataques de Estados Unidos e Israel contra o Irã. O país também acusou os Emirados Árabes Unidos, aliados dos americanos, de participação direta em operações militares. Desde o início da guerra, em 28 de fevereiro, o Irã lançou ataques com mísseis e drones contra os Emirados Árabes Unidos em diversas ocasiões. “Houve opiniões divergentes entre alguns membros em relação à situação na região do Oriente Médio e da Ásia Ocidental”, afirmou o governo da Índia no comunicado final da presidência do grupo. O que é o Brics e qual a relevância do encontro sediado no Brasil? Sem citar diretamente os Emirados Árabes Unidos, o ministro das Relações Exteriores do Irã, Abbas Araqchi, afirmou que um integrante do Brics vetou trechos da declaração conjunta. “Não temos dificuldades com esse país em particular; eles não foram nosso alvo na guerra atual. Atacamos apenas bases e instalações militares americanas que, infelizmente, estão em território deles”, declarou o chanceler iraniano durante entrevista coletiva. Araqchi disse ainda esperar que o tema avance na próxima cúpula do Brics, prevista para este ano. “Espero que, quando chegarmos à cúpula, eles cheguem a um bom entendimento de que o Irã é um vizinho, que temos que conviver, que convivemos há séculos e que continuaremos a conviver pelos séculos que virão”, afirmou. O Ministério das Relações Exteriores dos Emirados Árabes Unidos não respondeu imediatamente aos pedidos de comentário. A nota divulgada pela Índia informou que os integrantes do bloco apresentaram diferentes posições nacionais sobre o conflito. Segundo o comunicado, os países defenderam desde uma solução rápida para a crise até a necessidade de respeito à soberania e à integridade territorial dos Estados. O texto também destacou a importância de garantir a segurança do comércio marítimo internacional e proteger infraestruturas e civis em áreas afetadas pelos conflitos. Gaza e Sul Global Na declaração, os ministros do Brics afirmaram que a Faixa de Gaza é “parte inseparável do Território Palestino Ocupado”. O grupo também defendeu a unificação da Cisjordânia e de Gaza sob a Autoridade Palestina e reafirmou o direito dos palestinos à autodeterminação e à criação de um Estado independente. Segundo a Índia, um dos integrantes do bloco apresentou ressalvas a trechos da seção sobre Gaza, mas o país não foi identificado. Como presidente do Brics em 2026, a Índia também afirmou que os países defenderam maior união entre as nações em desenvolvimento diante dos desafios globais. “O Sul Global é um motor de mudanças positivas”, destacou o comunicado. A nota menciona ainda desafios como tensões geopolíticas, dificuldades econômicas, mudanças tecnológicas, medidas protecionistas e pressão migratória. O Brics é formado atualmente por Brasil, Rússia, Índia, China, África do Sul, Etiópia, Egito, Irã e Emirados Árabes Unidos.

From men on dog leads to public breast-fondling, Valie Export’s art demanded a total feminist revolution

The performance artist was a brilliantly subversive pioneer whose work exposed the predicament of women living in a world that was not made for us
Renowned feminist artist and film-maker Valie Export dies aged 85

Punk, intellectual, feminist, theorist, brave as hell, vulnerable, funny, Valie Export was a hero to many women. Since the 1960s, she was driven by a fierce conviction that art and media would play an essential role in women’s liberation: that women must picture their own reality in the name of social progress. In Women’s Art: A Manifesto (1972), she wrote that women must “use art as a means of expression, so as to influence the consciousness of all of us”. What she demanded was revolution.

I keep returning to her work. Can’t stay away. I have written about her in relation to violence in women’s art. Her work was heavy with explicit threat and pain, and she made evident the violence of forcing women’s bodies to inhabit structures that were not designed for them. For the 1973 performance Hyperbuliashe crept naked through a corridor of electrified wires, exposing herself voluntarily to shocks.
