There
continue to be deadly protests against the authoritarian Marxist Sandinista
Nicaraguan regime.
The Russian
democratic opposition leader Alexi Navalny was arrested again yesterday,
immediately after having been released from prison, because of his organization
of peaceful protests against the tyrannical and kleptocratic regime of Vladimir
Putin. Over the last several months, here
have been frequent protests for liberty and against corruption and Russian
intervention in Syria ’s
Civil War. The regime does not tolerate
the freedom of peaceful assembly. It has
arrested thousands of protesters.
A
pro-independence Hong Kong party was banned recently
by the pro-Peking territorial government.
The territory was promised basic liberty and the free market after
reverting to Chinese rule from rule by the United
Kingdom in 1997, but the Communist Chinese regime based
in Peking has been gradually violating Hong Kong ’s
freedoms and self-government.
The
center-left Prime Minister of Sweden lost a vote of confidence this week in the
Parliament, following recent parliamentary elections in which no party won a
majority and the liberals lost seats.
The loss of confidence was a first in Swedish history. The leader of the largest center-right party
will attempt to form a government.
Although his party also lost seats, the two smaller parties in the
center-right bloc gained seats. The
far-right nationalists gained seats, as did smaller left-wing parties.
