COP29: WE’LL NOT BACK DOWN!
[[link removed]]
_Débora Gastal_ / 350.org (Boston)
Vulnerable countries had no choice but to accept a bad deal. The
US$300 billion goal is an improvement on the previous US$100 billion
set 15 years ago, but it still falls extremely short of the amount
needed to support vulnerable nations in adapting to climate impacts,
transitioning to renewable energy, and ensuring a just and equitable
response to the climate crisis.

URUGUAY: BROAD FRONT WINS PRESIDENCY

Many analysts predicted that the Broad Front would not be able to
clinch a win in the second round given that, in the previous election,
the right-wing managed to rally other parties in favor of
the right-wing candidate. But candidate Yamandú Orsi’s social
democratic discourse of rescuing public institutions convinced more
voters than the neoliberal proposals of Álvaro Delgado.

FIRST NATIONS WALKING THE LAND

_Meaghan Weatherdon_ / The Conversation (Waltham MA)
For Indigenous activists, walking the land can take on powerful
spiritual and political significance. It has been, and continues to
be, an important way Indigenous nations pursue healing, environmental
stewardship and diplomacy across Turtle Island, the name many
Indigenous groups use to refer to North America.

SHEINBAUM DEFIANT

President Claudia Sheinbaum suggested Tuesday that Mexico could
retaliate—with tariffs of its own, after Donald Trump t
[[link removed]]hreatened
to impose 25% import duties on Mexican goods if the country doesn't
stop the flow of drugs and migrants across the border. “If tariffs
go up, who will it hurt? General Motors,” she said.

NIGERIA: MASS HUNGER FUELS MASS MOVEMENT
[[link removed]]
_Baba Aye_ / Global Labour Column (Johannesburg)
Most important in these days of protest is the soil it has ploughed
for the seeds of a storm, which is likely to come quite soon. As the
protest organisers pointed out when the state was finding people to
hold responsible as mobilisers for the protest, the key mobilisers are
hunger and generalised hardship in the land.

CUBA AND TRUMP
[[link removed]]
_Rafael Hernández_ / OnCuba News (Miami)
For Cuba, in practical terms, never as now has it been more evident
that the policy of force and exclusion has a bipartisan character,
that it continues in the logic of the so-called deep state, the
bureaucracies in charge of implementing it, regardless of who is in
the White House.

MARÍA ELENA MOYANO
[[link removed]]
_Néstor David Pastor_ / NACLA Report (New York)
Moyano, a community organizer in Peru, was murdered by Shining Path
while attending at a fundraiser in 1992. More than 300,000 people
attended Moyano’s burial. In the aftermath of such a shocking and
horrific murder, the Shining Path would lose virtually all sympathy to
its cause—a shift in public perception largely credited to Moyano.
