Rusland
truer med angreb på terrorbaser
Den ufattelige tragedie i Beslan har vendt op og ned på
Ruslands forhold til omverdenen. Den russiske hærs generalstabschef Jurij
Balujevskij sagde efterfølgende, at Rusland er parat til angreb på
terrorbaser overalt i verden. Den tone er vi mest vant til at høre fra USA,
der efter 11. september 2001 påberåbte sig retten til forebyggende angreb.
Spørgsmålet er, om det bare er teatertorden fra Moskvas side, eller om man
er parat til at sætte handling bag ordene. Når meldingen kommer fra en så
højtstående person som generalstabschefen, må man gå ud fra, at
meldingen har opbakning fra højeste sted, altså fra præsident Putin.
Iagttagere vurderer, at et evt. russisk angreb meget vel kunne komme til at
gå ud over Georgien, som russerne i lang tid har beskyldt for at huse
terrorister. Desuden er der i Georgien det meget omtalte Sydossetien, hvor
separatister kæmper for at få Sydossetien forenet med Rusland. Georgien
holder derimod fast på, at Sydossetien skal blive ved med at være en del
af Georgien. Området kan derfor hurtigt blive noget af en heksekedel. ”Der er endnu ikke fuldt overblik over situationen på skolen i det
sydlige Rusland.
Et står imidlertid klart: Skruppelløse terrorister har påført fuldstændigt
uskyldige mennesker og deres pårørende ufattelige lidelser. Det er
vanskeligt at forestille sig den gru, sorg og vrede ofrene og deres familier
må føle.
Ingen sag, intet formål og ingen situation kan berettige, at børn tages
som gidsler.
Vores tanker og dybeste medfølelse går til ofrene og
deres familier.”
Den estiske præsident Arnold Rüütel er på officielt besøg i Danmark
i dagene 13.-15. september 2004. I forbindelse med besøget mødes den
estiske præsident og statsministeren til politiske samtaler tirsdag den 14.
september på Marienborg. Statsministeren udtaler i anledning af det forestående
besøg: ”Jeg ser frem til mødet med den estiske præsident Rüütel. Der
har siden Estland blev selvstændigt været meget nære forbindelser mellem
vores to lande. Mødet bliver en god anledning til at bekræfte de tætte
gensidige forhold og til at drøfte generelle europapolitiske og globale spørgsmål.”
Micro Matic flytter produktion til Baltikum Ifølge JP har virksomheden Micro Matic i Odense fyret 120 medarbejdere
og flytter montagearbejdet til Baltikum. Årsagen er skyldes timelønninger,
i Danmark koster en arbejdstime 180 kr, mens den i Baltikum koster 19 kr
incl. sociale omkostninger og pension. Det drejer sig om montage og
forsendelse af fadølsanlæg som flyttes. Micro Matic er internbationalt
førende på dette område, og angiver at flytningen skal sikre
konkurrencevnen.
Milocevic starter sit forsvar Slobodan Milosevic indledte d. 31 august sin indledende forsvartale
forsvar ved krigsforbryderdomsotlen i Haag. Der har været udsættelser pga.
Milocivic's dårlige helbred, især for højt blodtryk. Han omtalte
anklagerne om folkedrab som "samvitighedsløse løgne" samt
Litauens nationalbankdirektør Sarkinas har udtalt at
Litaiuen forventer at kunne være klar til indførsel af Euro i år 2006.
Litauen har tilsluttet sig valutamekanisken (ERM) og har påbegyndt et 2
årigt prøveforløb. Da der i fobindelse med introduktionen af
prøvemenismen ikke er opstået problemer, så har gode forhåbninger om, at
alt vil gå efter planen.
Det hollanske bryggeri Heineken vil invester 100 mill.
dollars på det russiske ølmarked i de næste 3 år. Investeringerne vil
gå til 2 Heineken ejede bryggerier; nemlig Chikan og Volga. Der vil blive
tale om en kraftig produktionsforøgelser og
markedsføringsatning i Rusland. Heineken har pt. 7% af markedet i Rusland,
mens Carlsberg har ca. 30%.
De nye ansøgerlande Officielt eksportfremstød i Ukraine I samarbejde med Dansk Industri, Landbrugsrådet og DBDH arrangerer
Danmarks Eksportråd i dagene fra 7. til 12. november 2004 et officielt
eksportfremstød i Ukraine (Kiev, Dnepropetrovsk og Lviv). Fremstødet, der
ledes af Danmarks Eksportråds direktør Birger Riis-Jørgensen, fokuserer på
energisektoren, den fødevareforarbejdende industri samt træ- og møbelindustrien.
Sidstnævnte er især koncentreret i det vestlige Ukraine, og fremstødsaktiviteterne
i Lviv vil derfor være koncentreret omkring forretningsmulighederne inden
for denne sektor. Deltagelse i Kiev er obligatorisk for alle brancher.
Herefter er Dnepropetrovsk valgfri for alle i energisektoren og den fødevareforarbejdende
industri, medens virksomheder, der er interesseret i træ- og møbelsektoren
kan vælge at udvide deltagelsen med et efterfølgende besøgsprogram i
Lviv. Sidste frist for tilmelding er den 10. august 2004.
Danske virksomheder kan få del i
EU's strukturfondsmidler i Polen En tredjedel af alle offentlige projekter, som udføres i Polen, bliver
støttet af EU midler. Langt de fleste licitationer – ca. 70% vindes af
polsk-registrerede virksomheder. Da Polen indtrådte i EU d. 1. maj ophørte
muligheden for positiv særbehandling for polske virksomheder i offentlige
udbud.
Official
speach by President Putin
Speaking is hard. It is painful. I would like now, first of all, to address words of support and condolence to
those people who have lost what we treasure most in this life – our children,
our loved and dear ones. I ask that we all remember those who lost their lives at the hands of
terrorists over these last days. Russia has lived through many tragic events and terrible ordeals over the
course of its history. Today, we live in a time that follows the collapse of a
vast and great state, a state that, unfortunately, proved unable to survive in a
rapidly changing world. But despite all the difficulties, we were able to
preserve the core of what was once the vast Soviet Union, and we named this new
country the Russian Federation. We all hoped for change, change for the better. But many of the changes
that took place in our lives found us unprepared. Why is this? We are living at a time of an economy in transition, of a political system
that does not yet correspond to the state and level of our society’s
development. We are living through a time when internal conflicts and interethnic
divisions that were once firmly suppressed by the ruling ideology have now
flared up. We stopped paying the required attention to defence and security issues and
we allowed corruption to undermine our judicial and law enforcement system. Furthermore, our country, formerly protected by the most powerful defence
system along the length of its external frontiers overnight found itself
defenceless both from the east and the west. It will take many years and billions of roubles to create new, modern and
genuinely protected borders. But even so, we could have been more effective if we had acted professionally
and at the right moment. In general, we need to admit that we did not fully understand the complexity
and the dangers of the processes at work in our own country and in the world. In
any case, we proved unable to react adequately. We showed ourselves to be weak.
And the weak get beaten. Some would like to tear from us a “juicy piece of pie”. Others help them.
They help, reasoning that Russia still remains one of the world’s major
nuclear powers, and as such still represents a threat to them. And so they
reason that this threat should be removed. Terrorism, of course, is just an instrument to achieve these aims. As I have said many times already, we have found ourselves confronting
crises, revolts and terrorist acts on more than one occasion. But what has
happened now, this crime committed by terrorists, is unprecedented in its
inhumanness and cruelty. This is not a challenge to the President, parliament or
government. It is a challenge to all of Russia, to our entire people. Our
country is under attack. The terrorists think they are stronger than us. They think they can frighten
us with their cruelty, paralyse our will and sow disintegration in our society.
It would seem that we have a choice - either to resist them or to agree to their
demands. To give in, to let them destroy and plunder Russia in the hope that
they will finally leave us in peace. As the President, the head of the Russian state, as someone who swore an oath
to defend this country and its territorial integrity, and simply as a citizen of
Russia, I am convinced that in reality we have no choice at all. Because to
allow ourselves to be blackmailed and succumb to panic would be to immediately
condemn millions of people to an endless series of bloody conflicts like those
of Nagorny Karabakh, Trans-Dniester and other similar tragedies. We should not
turn away from this obvious fact. What we are dealing with are not isolated acts intended to frighten us, not
isolated terrorist attacks. What we are facing is direct intervention of
international terror directed against Russia. This is a total, cruel and
full-scale war thatagain and again is taking the lives of our fellow citizens. World experience shows us that, unfortunately, such wars do not end quickly.
In this situation we simply cannot and should not live in as carefree a manner
as previously. We must create a much more effective security system and we must
demand from our law enforcement agencies action that corresponds to the level
and scale of the new threats that have emerged. But most important is to mobilise the entire nation in the face of this
common danger. Events in other countries have shown that terrorists meet the
most effective resistance in places where they not only encounter the state’s
power but also find themselves facing an organised and united civil society. Dear fellow citizens,
Those who sent these bandits to carry out this
dreadful crime made it their aim to set our peoples against each other, put
fear into the hearts of Russian citizens and unleash bloody interethnic
strife in the North Caucasus. In this connection I have the following words
to say. First, a series of measures aimed at strengthening our country’s unity
will soon be prepared. Second, I think it is necessary to create a new system of coordinating the
forces and means responsible for exercising control over the situation in the
North Caucasus. Third, we need to create an effective anti-crisis management
system including entirely new approaches to the way the law enforcement
agencies work. I want to stress that all of these measures will be implemented in full
accordance with our country’s Constitution. Dear friends, We were and always will be stronger than them, stronger through our
morals, our courage and our sense of solidarity. I saw this again last night. In Beslan, which is literally soaked with grief and pain, people were
showing care and support for each other more than ever. They were not afraid to risk their own lives in the name of the lives and
peace of others. Even in the most inhuman conditions they remained human beings. It is impossible to accept the pain caused by such loss, but these trials
have brought us even closer together and have forced us to re-evaluate a lot
of things. Today we must be together, for it is only together that we will vanquish
the enemy.
