Then he has a problem in the Czernin case, because he is considering conflicts of interest of others here, and he himself was in conflict of interest in this case. We are still examining the extent to which a disciplinary action is likely to be filed. (The Attorney General met with Jan Czernin, a judge from Mladá Boleslav in 2014, whose relative Karl Eugen Czernin was in a restitution dispute with Zeman's friend Petr Habersberger.

So is he coming to an end in office?

I won't tell you that now, because we're still evaluating the awkward case. If a disciplinary lawsuit is filed, the Attorney General cannot do like this. This is a loss of moral credit.

#MH17 #MH17trial

Inspection of the MH17 saga teaches us, in the first instance, never simply to presume that an enterprise that appears to have the status of an officially supported and endorsed international legal proceeding must on that account be above reproach

#France seeks foothold in northeast Syria

"France was supporting the option of toppling the legitimate Syrian government and Assad
France wants to bolster its influence in Syria and the only area fit for that geographically and geopolitically is the northeast, because it is on the US’ side in the coalition and the de facto authorities [SDF] there are close to France. Besides the eastern Euphrates area is rich in wealths, and it is promising in the reconstruction phase. France had commercial businesses in the oil-rich areas before the 'revolution'. Since it is against the Syrian government and Russia, it has no place in Damascus or other regime-controlled areas. And due to its tensions with Turkey, it cannot set foot in northwest Syria.
France is trying to capitalize on the return of the US role or the military repositioning of US forces in the Middle East — namely in Iraq and Syria — to replace it. France wants to be a key player in Syria, just like Russia, Iran and Turkey. It does not want to remain on the back burner in Syria"

Forgeries And The Truth About #Srebrenica 

The anti-Serbian propaganda orchestrated in Sarajevo, Zagreb, Washington, Berlin, and Brussels aims at four basic functions:

To finally stick the label of Nazi genocide (perhaps even genetically innate) to Serbs through the Hague verdict.

To abolish the Republika Srpska and thus modify the 1995 Dayton Agreement.

To annul the genocide against Serbs in the 20th century committed by Croats, Bosniaks, and Albanians.

To finally legalize the abduction of Kosovo from Serbia and to verify the creation of Greater Albania, for which the leading political structures in Prishtina and Tirana are openly advocating.

Some of the most senior figures in the British establishment have secretly served as ‘privy councillors’ to a highly repressive dictatorship in the Gulf state of Oman. The elite UK group has included heads of MI6 and the military, a foreign minister, an oil executive, the ex-governor of the Bank of England and one of Queen Elizabeth’s closest aides.
