Roger Waters: We are on the road to Frankfurt
Concert in Frankfurt to be secured by interim injunction
London. Roger Waters has noted with pleasure the decision of the Munich City Council that his 21.05.2023 concert in the Olympiahalle Munich will take place as planned:
"I am very happy to be able to perform in Munich for my fans. A ban on my concert would have been illegal. The City of Munich’s decision is good news for freedom of speech in Germany."
Referring to the concert in Frankfurt on 28.05.2023, for which the City of Frankfurt and the State of Hesse are sticking to the cancellation of the contract, Waters went on to say:
"The decision makers in Frankfurt know that they are on the wrong side of the law and are now completely isolated. They should take an example from their colleagues in Munich and instead of wasting a lot of taxpayers’ money on a futile legal action they should follow Munich’s brave example and support freedom in the arts and free speech in general. The cancel attempts of the Frankfurt politicians are an attack on artistic freedom as a whole. Politicians have no right to intimidate and bully artists and their fans with performance bans."
Waters said that he would continue to fight unceasingly for his right to perform in Frankfurt saying:
”I am fighting for all of our human rights, including the right to freedom of speech. We are on the road to Frankfurt. Frankfurt, here we come!”
If pre-court efforts fail, Waters' lawyers will seek to secure the performance of the concert in Frankfurt on 28.05.2023 through an interim injunction. Commenting on this intention, Waters said:
“Like all the other concerts on my European tour, my concert in Frankfurt will take place. I will enforce this in court if I must. So my fans don’t have to worry."

European Elections: Higher turnout expected, von der Leyen better known than her predecessors8.5.2024 08:13:27 CEST | Pressmeddelande
Gütersloh, 08.05.2024. 60 percent of Europeans intend to cast their ballots in the European Elections in June. This would be around 10 percent more than in the last elections five years ago. This is the outcome of the new "eupinions" survey conducted by the Bertelsmann Stiftung. The survey also reveals that 75 percent of the European electorate know Ursula von der Leyen by name and face. This means that the current commission president is considerably better known than her predecessors. At the same time, 70 percent of those surveyed indicated that they felt inadequately informed about the commission president's work.

Report: BRICS+ likely new counterpoint to G7-led geopolitical order2.5.2024 09:05:42 CEST | Press release
Los Angeles/DNA - The expansion of the BRICS group of nations into what has informally been named BRICS+ could highlight a geopolitical shift, with the new grouping positioning itself as a counterpoint to the Western-led geopolitical order, a report published by the Luskin School of Public Affairs at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) argues. The report, titled "Towards A New Global Contestation? Comparing the Governance Performance of G7 and BRICS+ Nations" examines how the ten BRICS+ countries compare to the G7 nations on factors such as provision of public goods, quality of democracy and quality of governance. It uses the Berggruen Governance Index (BGI) to measure the governance performance of countries in these three dimensions. In January 2024, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) joined the BRICS group. The term BRICS was originally coined by an economist in the 2000s to refer to a group of emerging economies: Brazil, Russia, India,
Sahel elites must move away from 'zero-sum' policies, report urges2.5.2024 08:59:23 CEST | Press release
Los Angeles/DNA - A dual economic strategy focusing on domestic economic development and international partnerships to address the underlying challenges facing the Sahel region could help Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger and Sudan to build more resilient institutions and foster long-term development, a recently published report says. The report by the Luskin School of Public Affairs at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) argues that the four countries should aim to transition away from relying exclusively on resource extraction. It attributes much of the challenges facing the four countries on unsustainable economic policies which focus on the export of raw materials. Despite some improvements in terms of public goods provision - in particular regarding social and environmental public goods - these countries continue to face significant developmental challenges, ranking among the world's poorest.
