Jörg Runge is a speaker from Cologne who has been on stage at Carnival for almost two decades. He is also a communications trainer and offers courses and seminars for foolish staff. At SWR2 he explains what makes a successful speech.
Put your finger in the wound at Carnival
For him it’s about passing on the fascination for carnival, says Jörg Runge. When people come to him to take seminars on hand-written speeches, he tries to develop a character with them. It’s about what thoughts and attitudes this character has, what topics concern them, what language they use and how they express themselves physically.
The speeches are also about putting a “finger in the political wound” and sharply criticizing the authorities. The topics this year are the farmers’ protests, the poor transport infrastructure and also the shift to the right in society, which is worth considering.

Threat Again. The Scope And Time Of Armenias…
The Russian Federation and the Republic of Armenia have obligations towards each other, including in terms of territorial integrity and sovereignty preservation and security. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zakharova expressed this idea in the February 7 briefing, addressing the issue of the change in Armenia’s foreign political vector. According to Zakharova, “they hope that the Armenian government will take all that into account in the background of the current geopolitical change” and make the right choice.
Zakharova also had in mind the circumstance of CSTO area of responsibility. Briefings with such emphasis by the spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry are regular, and it seems that there is nothing new here. However, the question needs a deep consideration, because the statements and notes of the “brave” are not the answer to the problems and risks arising from it, at least from the point of view of solving Armenia’s problems. There is no doubt that underlining Zakharova’s tone is the threat, the security threat. The formula here is very simple: the Russians will implement this threat at the hands of Azerbaijan, in agreement with Turkey. What is Armenia’s ability to manage these risks? At the same time, the question needs both a quantitative and a temporal answer.

In his speech, the president said that “these are systems that can take down anything.” “We will protect the regions. And although the systems are not yet sufficient for the complete defense of Ukraine, “We work toward that goal every day.”
Additionally, US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland said in Kiev this week that a new “small diameter” bomb capable of hitting targets at greater distances would soon arrive in the country.
The Slovak Parliament Abolished The Special Prosecutors Office
#Slovak #parliament #abolished #special #prosecutors #office
Amendments to the Criminal Code were adopted.
After several days of intense debate, the Bratislava legislature approved the amendment of the Slovak Criminal Code on Thursday evening, as expected.
The opposition boycotted the vote on the proposal, which includes the abolition of the so-called special prosecutor’s office (ÚSP) and the reduction of some punishments.
The amendment to the criminal code was approved by the Bratislava government in December of last year on the grounds that certain items of the criminal laws should be made “more humane” and the ÚSP should be abolished. The latter was justified by the fact that the institution, which was established only a few years ago, is outside the system of the Slovak prosecutor’s office, as well as by the need to remove the prosecutor’s office from the possibility of political influence.
Regarding the latter, the authors of the criticism claim that the ÚSP was used by the governing liberals until the early elections last September to politically disable the current governing parties. The ÚSP has been subject to many criticisms from several quarters,

NOS News•yesterday, 10:06 PM
The European Union has signed a deal with Mauritania to combat illegal migration. The West African country has been promised a support package of 210 million euros to better combat human smugglers and migrant boats trying to reach the Canary Islands. More and more migrants are trying to make that dangerous crossing to the Spanish archipelago.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen today visited the Mauritanian capital Nouakchott together with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. There they discussed, among other things, border control and economic development with President Ould Ghazouani of Mauritania.
“To help Mauritania deal with the challenges of migration management, displacement and security and development, the EU is increasing financial support,” European leaders wrote in a statement after the meeting. They also see a role for the European border control agency Frontex in border control, although they did not provide any explanation about this.
110 migrant boats in January
Now that the Sahel is becoming increasingly unstable, partly as a result of coups in Mali and Niger, for example, the number of migrants from that region is growing.

The Complexities of U.S. Drone Strikes in Iraq: Exploring Perspectives and Solutions
In recent years, U.S. drone strikes have become a means of targeting and eliminating individuals deemed threats to national security or involved in terrorist activities. However, these strikes often come with significant consequences, both militarily and diplomatically.
One such strike that has garnered attention is the overnight U.S. drone strike in Baghdad that killed a senior commander of an Iran-backed militia. This strike was carried out in response to an attack on a U.S. base in Jordan, where three American troops lost their lives.
The Iraqi Armed Forces condemned the strike, labeling it as a “blatant assassination” and criticizing the destabilizing effect of U.S. presence in their country. Yehia Rasool, spokesperson for the commander in chief of the Iraqi Armed Forces, accused the U.S. of disregarding civilian lives and international laws.
On the other hand, the U.S military’s Central Command justified its actions by stating that they targeted an individual responsible for planning and participating in attacks against American forces.
“There are no indications of collateral damage or civilian casualties at this time.”
The use of drones allows for precise targeting but raises questions about potential civilian casualties and violations of sovereignty.
