Ue: da gennaio Ue a 27 con Romania e Bulgaria

09/28/2006 Il primo gennaio 2007 avremo una Unione europea a 27: vi entreranno infatti anche Romania e Bulgaria. Ma il presidente della Commissione europea Jos� Barroso ha affermato che dopo di loro sia meglio chiudere la porta. Dal 2000, quando iniziarono i negoziati per l�adesione, la Romania si sforza di mantenere gli impegni assunti: i funzionari di Strasburgo hanno riconosciuto gli sforzi compiuti da Bucarest, soprattutto nella lotta alla corruzione e nella riforma del sistema giudiziario. Romania e la Bulgaria saranno i paesi pi� poveri dell�Ue: malgrado la crescita economica sostenuta, gli stipendi sono aumentati di poco. Tra i ventisette paesi membri che conter� l�UE dal prossimo gennaio, la Romania occupa il settimo posto in base al numero degli abitanti. Nel parlamento europeo avr� trentacinque parlamentari che verranno eletti nelle elezioni europee del 31 dicembre del 2007 - riporta Mihaela Iordache per Osservatorio sui Balcani.

Oxfam: aumentano le spese militari, urge trattato sul commercio di armi

09/25/2006 Le spese militari sono in costante aumento e per la fine del 2006 supereranno i mille miliardi di dollari raggiungendo i livelli della Guerra Fredda: lo afferma l'Ong britannica Oxfam in un rapporto presentato all�Assemblea Generale dell'Onu. "L'aumento di spese militari ha comportato una crescita del 60% Dei fatturati delle principali 100 industrie produttici di armi" - segnala il rapporto. Se l'incremento � dovuto principalmente alla spesa militare degli Stati Uniti, che da sola supera la met� della spesa mondiale, e del Medio Oriente, anche l�Africa � interessata dal problema. Rilanciando le proposte della Campagna "Control arms", Oxfam ha invitato i Governi sostenere la proposta di un Trattato sul commercio delle armi gi� dal prossimo ottobre. E bloccare la vendita di armi nelle zone di conflitto dei paesi poveri.
