How Will You Celebrate on December 10?

In Romania the Cluj Transilvania Convivium will gather to recall childhood recipes and bake traditional near-forgotten desserts, while in Tanzania, five communities are planning to come together for a school garden harvest and collective meal. In the US, local endangered foods will be cooked up at a dinner party, and in Venezuela the humble potato will take the stage, becoming the focus of a community festival. Hard-hitting issues will be faced in Mexico with a two-day debate program on food and the environment, while in Australia the traditions kept alive by Aboriginal women will be celebrated. Add a kimchi party in South Korea to the mix, being organized by the local Slow Food Youth Network to swap and compare family recipes for this national dish, and it’s fair to say there’s a lot on the menu for this year’s Terra Madre Day.

Presiunile Rusiei au avut efect. Ucraina renunță la asocierea cu Uniunea Europeană

Presiunile Rusiei și politicienii antieuropeni de la Kiev au avut câștig de cauză. Ucraina a renunțat unilateral la parcursul său european. Vecinul estic al României a decis să întrerupă demersurile pentru semnarea acordului de asociere cu Uniunea Europeană, iar Kievul reintră, astfel, în orbita Moscovei. În acest context, experții în politică externă spun că merită cu atât mai mult apreciate eforturile Republicii Moldova, ”premiantul” Parteneriatului Estic. Statul românesc va deveni, foarte probabil, asociat al Uniunii Europene și tot mai multe voci vorbesc despre Republica Moldova ca despre o țară care pășește cu siguranță pe drumul care va duce spre aderarea la structurile euroatlantice.
