CNN —The last few weeks have brought unthinkable upheaval in Haiti, a country that is no stranger to tragedy and suffering. Nothing can compare to the current upheaval in Haiti though, and I would expect new waves of Haitians to seek refuge on foreign shores. Haiti needs help combating corruption and loosening the stranglehold that the country’s oligarchic masters have on its economy. He remains sequestered in Haiti however, because he knows that leaving would mean his business would be looted and pillaged. Although formidable challenges lie ahead, the path to peace and stability in Haiti is possible with help from Washington.

CNN —The last few weeks have brought unthinkable upheaval in Haiti, a country that is no stranger to tragedy and suffering. Nothing can compare to the current upheaval in Haiti though, and I would expect new waves of Haitians to seek refuge on foreign shores. After securing its independence, Haiti was subjected to neocolonialism and neglect by the global superpower on its doorstep, the US. Haiti needs help combating corruption and loosening the stranglehold that the country’s oligarchic masters have on its economy. He remains sequestered in Haiti however, because he knows that leaving would mean his business would be looted and pillaged.

Ziua României se sărbătorește și la Cascada Niagara, grație unei inițiative a Ambasadei României din Ottawa și a emisiunii Noi Românii, realizată de timișoreanul Raul Dudnic, scrie pressalert.ro. ”La solicitarea emisiunii noastre TV, Noi Românii, Niagara Parks Commission a fost de acord să lumineze cascada în culorile steagului românesc în onoarea Zilei Naționale a României, în data de 1 decembrie, între orele 21:45 și 22:00. Mulțumim comisiei Niagara Parks care a fost de acord să accepte cererea noastră cu un preaviz atât de scurt”, spun inițiatorii acestei acțiuni. Cireașa de pe tort la acest capitol rămâne desigur prezența sa în componența formației Cargo. Cu exact un sfert de secol în urmă, în 1995, Raul Dudnic a plecat definitiv în Canada, unde realizează diverse emisiuni dedicate comunității românești.
