Trump's art of the deal always has been to ask for everything, judge the point at which the other party has made his final offer and then take what he can get, says Ramesh Thakur. That's what he's doing with Ukraine.

The International Federation of Journalists on Tuesday denounced countries including Denmark, the United States and the United Kingdom for “trying to intimidate and stifle independent journalism.” The IFJ says that a global crackdown on investigative journalism led by countries that are supposed to be models of democracy is repressive and is depriving people of their basic rights – “most importantly the right of citizens to know what their government is doing.”

Meanwhile, one of Denmark's conservative daily papers, Berlingske Tidende, yesterday reported that the paper's editor-in-chief is now being indicted, along with two of his journalists, for publishing information obtained from classified military intelligence documents. In the documents, prepared before Denmark invaded Iraq in 2003, the Danish defence intelligence service advised the government that there was no sure evidence that Iraq was in possession of weapons of mass destruction.

These developments stand in stark contrast to the rosy picture of freedom of the press painted by the Danish government in association with the deliberately provocative publication of cartoons of Muhammad in another Danish newspaper last year.

Please read excerpts from the IFJ's report plus an English translation of Berlingske Tidende's latest report, below. read full story / add a comment

A considered and balanced view of the media event presently saturating the airwaves, the “North Korean Missile Crisis”, would reveal an hysterical, farcical over-reaction! The Korean so-called long range ICBM explodes on launch – good one, Kim! But notice how quick the coalition of willing criminals are to utilise anything to distract the public attention away from the criminality of Guantanamo Bay, Iraq, Camp Bond Steel (occupation base in the Balkans which utilises the services of East European child sex slaves to service American troops). THIS IS AMERICA, policeman of the world, welcome to ‘freedom’, exploitation and the pollution that is American culture.
