Life without happiness doesn’t worth living

By Douson Odeh Leave a Comment

Happiness is the meaning and purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence. Life without happiness doesn’t worth living. Creativity brings happiness, it is not what you can find, create your own happiness and live a happy life. You have the capacity to create your own happiness, if you don’t like something about your life, change it, never settle for less than all your dream of.

Always be the reason of someone happiness, never just a part of it. Be a part of someone sadness but never the reason.Happiness is not something that happens to you.

 

Ex-Catalan leader Mr Carles Puigdemont arrested in Germany on Spanish arrest warrant

By Douson Odeh Leave a Comment


German police have arrested the former Ex Catalan president Mr Carles Puigdemont under a European arrest warrant as he crossed from Denmark into Germany.

Puigdemont, who has been living in self-imposed exile in Brussels since October, was travelling in a car on the way from Finland to Belgium on Sunday when he was detained, having visited Finnish lawmakers in Helsinki.

On Friday the Spanish government reactivated an international arrest warrant for Puigdemont, who is wanted on charges of sedition, rebellion and misuse of public funds.

Spain sent a request to the Finnish authorities to detain Puigdemont, who was on a visit to promote the Catalan independence cause. However, the request was written in Spanish and there was a delay while authorities in Madrid had it translated into English. In the meantime, Puigdemont left the country.

In a statement on Sunday, Puigdemont’ press officer said, Carles Puigdemont has been detained in Germany as he crossed from Denmark en route to Belgium. He has been properly treated throughout and is right now in a police station. He was on his way to Belgium where he would be, as always, at the disposal of Belgian justice.

Ralph Döpper, a deputy general attorney at the state prosecutor in Schleswig-Holstein, told the Guardian he was currently investigating whether Puigdemont would be placed into extradition custody, and he would announce his preliminary findings on Monday morning. On Sunday afternoon Puigdemont was transferred to Neumünster prison in northern Schleswig-Holstein.

Citing rumours within judicial circles, the local newspaper Kieler Nachrichten reported that Puigdemont was considering applying for asylum in Germany. The paper added that the chances of an asylum application overriding the European arrest warrant were relatively slim.

In Spain, reacting to the news of Puigdemont’ detention, Albert Rivera, leader of the centre-right Citizens party, said. The flight of the coup plotter has come to an end. There can be no impunity for those who try to destroy European democracy, flout democratic laws, destroy people’s coexistence and misuse public funds.

Elsa Artadi, spokeswoman for Puigdemont’ Together for Catalonia party, tweeted: “There is no guarantee of justice in Spain, only revenge and repression.

There was no comment from the ruling Popular party.

In Barcelona, a crowd of several thousand people gathered outside the office of the European commission to protest against the arrest of Puigdemont and the jailing of Catalan political leaders. They chanted “No more repression and general strike.

They later made their way to demonstrate outside the German consulate. There were also traffic go-slows on several main roads.
Puigdemont had covered 808 miles (1,300km) of the 1,243-mile car journey when he was stopped at 11.19am, apparently at a petrol station near Schuby on the A7 motorway, 31 miles into German territory, according to his lawyer, Jaume Alonso-Cuevillas.

According to German media reports, the arrest was made following a tip-off from Spain’s intelligence agency to German federal police’s Sirene bureau, part of a network of information-sharing units for national police in the Schengen area.

Puigdemont could face up to 25 years in prison in Spain if convicted of charges of rebellion and sedition for organising an illegal referendum for Catalonia that led to a unilateral declaration of independence in October.

According to the rules of the European arrest warrant, Germany has up to 60 days to decide whether to extradite him to Spain. If Puigdemont surrenders to be prosecuted, the decision must be made within 10 days.

The international warrant, originally issued in November, was rescinded in December amid Spanish concerns that Belgium would not extradite Puigdemont for the more serious charges against him as they are not on the Belgian statute books.

Were he to be extradited only on the lesser charge of misuse of public funds, he could be tried only for that offence.

Germany can extradite suspects only if the alleged offence is also punishable under German law. The decision is supposed to be made by judicial authorities alone, without political interference.

There is no such crime as rebellion under German law, but there is a crime of high treason, defined as using force or the threat of force to undermine the constitutional order. It carries penalties ranging from 10 years to life imprisonment.

The Catalan unilateral declaration of independence was entirely peaceful, if unlawful, although Spanish authorities may argue there was an implicit threat of force. The crime of sedition was dropped from German law in the 1970s.

The arrest warrant was reactivated on Friday, as were similar warrants for other Catalan fugitives – Lluís Puig, Meritxell Serret and Toni Comín, who are all in Belgium, and Clara Ponsati, currently in Scotland where she is teaching at the University of St Andrews. Authorities in Scotland confirmed they had received the warrant, and Ponsati was said to be negotiating to turn herself in to police.

In a written statement, Scotland’s first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, reiterated the Scottish government’s support for the “Catalan people to determine their own future. She said: “The fact that our justice system is legally obliged to follow due process in the determination of extradition requests does not change those views.

 

Warrants were also issued for the arrest of Marta Rovira, secretary general of the secessionist Republican Left party, and Anna Gabriel, of the radical Popular Unity Candidacy, both of whom have sought refuge in Switzerland.

On Friday a Spanish supreme court judge remanded in custody , the third and latest candidate for the vacant Catalan presidency, and four others, among them a former speaker of the Catalan parliament. They join Oriol Junqueras, leader of Republican Left, and three others already held on remand in Madrid jails.

Police are treating a graffiti attack outside a house in Girona in northern Catalonia owned by the Spanish supreme court judge Pablo Llarena as an attempt at coercion. Catalan activists painted slogans in the road outside the house denouncing Llarena as a fascist. In a communiqué the state legal authorities said the incident was being investigated and the judge and his family would be afforded the necessary protection.

The President of Russian Vladimir Putin has dodged a question about his plans after serving another six-year term he has won

By Douson Odeh 48 Comments

Russian President Vladimir Putin has dodged a question about his plans after serving another six-year term he has won.

Putin wouldn’t be eligible under the constitution to compete in the 2024 election since there is a limit of two consecutive terms.

Asked if he could seek the presidency again in 2030, the 65-year-old Russian leader snapped back: It’s ridiculous. Do you think I will sit here until I turn 100?

Results from 60 percent of precincts show Putin polling more than 75 percent of the vote. The victory puts Putin on track to become Russia’s longest-serving leader since Soviet dictator Josef Stalin. Many expect Putin to stay at the helm, either by scrapping term limits or shifting into another position of power.

Asked if he could launch a constitutional reform, he said he has no plans to do so.

Putin also said he will decide on the Cabinet make-up after the inauguration.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is dismissing British accusations of Russia’s involvement in an ex-spy’s poisoning as nonsense, adding that Moscow is ready to cooperate with London in the probe.

Putin on Sunday referred to the attack on ex-spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter as a tragedy, but added that if the British claim that they were poisoned by the Soviet-designed nerve agent were true, the victims would have died instantly.

He said that it’s nonsense to think that anyone in Russia could have staged such an attack shortly before Sunday’s presidential vote and before the World Cup that Russia is set to host this summer.

In his first comments about the poisoning, the Russian leader said that Moscow was ready to cooperate with Britain in the investigation.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has addressed thousands of people who rallied outside the Kremlin to thank them for their support and promised new achievements.

Speaking to a crowd who attended a pop concert near the Kremlin marking his election victory, Putin hailed those who voted for him as a big national team, adding that we are bound for success.

He said that the nation needs unity to move forward and urged the audience to think about the future of our great motherland. He then led the enthusiastic crowd to chant.
Results from more than half of precincts showed Putin winning over 75 percent of the vote, with Communist candidate Pavel Grudinin and ultranationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky trailing far behind with about 13 and 6 percent, respectively.
Ksenia Sobchak, a liberal challenger in Russia’s presidential election who is a distant fourth in the early vote count, says she’s satisfied with her campaign.

Sobchak, who won about 1.4 percent of the vote in more than 20 percent of precincts already counted, said in televised remarks that her goal in the race was to spread liberal ideas across the country. An exit poll saw her winning about 2.5 percent of the vote.

Critics described Sobchak as a Kremlin project intended to add a democratic veneer to the election that saw President Vladimir Putin easily win about 73 percent of Sunday’s vote, according to an early vote count.

Sobchak, a 36-year-old star TV host who is the daughter of Putin’s one-time patron, has denied collusion with the Kremlin.
An exit poll and early returns suggest that Vladimir Putin has easily won a fourth term, keeping him as Russia’s president for six more years.

The nationwide exit poll conducted by the All-Russia Opinion Research Center (VTsIOM) showed that Putin won 73.9 percent of Sunday’s presidential vote. The poll covered 161,000 respondents at 1,200 precincts in 68 Russian provinces and had a margin of error of no more than 3.5 percent.

The exit poll findings looked similar to early results from Russia’s Far East, where the presidential vote ended eight hours ago. The Central Election Commission said with 21 percent of all precincts counted, Putin was leading the race with 71.9 percent of the vote.

The exit poll showed Communist candidate Pavel Grudinin in second place with 11.2 percent of the vote, while ultranationalism Vladimir Zhirinovsky came in third with 6.7 percent.
An exit poll suggests that Vladimir Putin has handily won a fourth term as Russia’s president, adding six more years in the Kremlin for the man who has led the world’s largest country for all of the 21st century.

The vote Sunday was tainted by widespread reports of ballot-box stuffing and forced voting, but the complaints will likely do little to undermine Putin.

Putin’s main challenges in the election were to obtain a huge margin of victory in order to claim an indisputable mandate. The exit poll suggests he got more than 70 percent of the vote.
He faced seven minor candidates on the ballot. Putin’s most vehement and visible foes, anti-corruption campaigner Alexei Navalny, was rejected as a candidate because he was convicted of fraud in a case widely regarded as politically motivated.

Russia’s opposition leader Alexei Navalny has accused presidential candidate Ksenia Sobchak of discrediting the opposition by joining the race.

Navalny told Sobchak in a YouTube broadcast that she was a parody of a liberal candidate and her involvement in the campaign helped the Kremlin cast the opposition in a negative light. He rejected Sobchak’s proposal to join forces.

Sobchak, a 36-year-old star TV anchor who is the daughter of Putin’s one-time patron, rejected the accusations, saying that she has used the race to champion the liberal ideas, attract public attention to some of the most acute issues and encourage important regional projects.

Critics have accused Sobchak of helping Putin create a semblance of competition in the vote he is set to easily win. She has denied collusion with the Kremlin.
Russia’s Central Election Commission says the turnout in the presidential election has exceeded 50 percent.

The commission says 51.9 percent of Russia’s nearly 111 million eligible voters have cast ballots as of 5 p.m. Moscow time (1400 GMT).

Election officials say efforts to encourage a higher turnout are in line with the law. Some Russians have reported being pressured by employers to show up and vote.

Election commission chief Ella Pamfilova also says officials around the country are taking quick measures in response to claims of violations.

Independent election observers and activists have alleged numerous incidents of ballot stuffing and other irregularities in Sunday’s vote, which President Vladimir Putin is certain to win.

Russia’s Central Election Commission says it is quickly responding to claims of violations in the presidential vote.

Commission chief Ella Pamfilova says “we are immediately reacting to all claims no matter where they come from.” She says officials quickly sealed a ballot box in the southern city of Rostov-on-Don where ballot stuffing was reported.

Election officials have responded similarly to allegations of ballot stuffing in the town of Lyubertsy just outside Moscow and the far eastern town of Artyom and have been looking into several other complaints.

Our bad attitude is one of our disability in life

By Douson Odeh Leave a Comment


Our bad attitude is one of our disability in life.This is what has bring many people down today. We can’t change our circumstance but we can choose our orientation,
we can’t control others but we can control ourselves to live a better life by maintaining the right inclination, this is easier than regaining the right inclination.

Our living is determined not so much what life brings to us as by the attitude we bring to life. It’s very important to generate a good inclination, a good heart,
as much as possible from our happiness in both the short term and long term for ourselves and others.

Develop the tendency that there are more reason why we should succeed than reason why we should fail. This are based on assumptions and in order to change our tendency,
we must first change one’s assumption. This is an expression of our value beliefs and expectation. Character is the result of two things: mental attitude and the way we spend our time.

It’s our attitude towards life that determine life’s tendency towards us. Despite many people’s belief to the contrary, life pays no favourites.
The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his predisposition.

Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to us, knowing that every step forward is a step towards achieving something bigger and better than our current situation. Our attitude, not our aptitude, will determine our altitude.
When we are on a journey we don’t fear change, we welcome it, we look forward to a new and unfamiliar experience, we are full of optimism because we are filled with the expectation of a wonderful adventure and it’s the perfect predisposition to carry with our everyday activities because life too is a journey.

The hugely influential figure of Carles Puigdemont remains in self-imposed exile in Belgium

By Douson Odeh 1 Comment


The hugely influential figure of Carles Puigdemont remains in self-imposed exile in Belgium. How should we regard the leader of the Catalan independence movement? And can he still influence what’s happening in his homeland having withdrawn his bid to be reinstated as Catalan president? Max Graham considers the issues.
In a striking development on the 1 March, Carles Puigdemont renounced his candidacy for the presidency of the Catalan government. In a defiant broadcast, given in both Catalan and English, the deposed president said that those fighting for Catalan independence were “expanding the battlefield”. But this latest move merely amounts to digging longer trenches and moves the situation no further from its current stalemate. So what brought the Catalan leader to this moment?

On 30 October 2017, Carles Puigdemont and five Catalan counsellors crossed the Spanish border into France. From there they travelled to Belgium, a country which won independence from its larger neighbour almost two centuries ago, but which has been riven by nationalist tensions since. It is no coincidence that Puigdemont fled to Brussels, the capital of Europe and home to his staunchest allies, the Flemish nationalists. They may have welcomed him as a hero but others in Belgium regard him – at best – as a nuisance. The deposed Catalan president divides opinion in his homeland too. To some Catalans, he is father of the nation; to others, he is a fugitive from justice.

Puigdemont has been the leader of the nationalist electoral alliance Junts pel Sí, and then of the right-of-centre party Junts Per Catalunya. He has also been a figurehead for the entire pro-independence movement since Artur Mas’ resignation in January 2016. Mas was president of the Generalitat – the Catalan government – from 2010-2015. He led the nationalist side to victory in two Catalan elections, but also in an informal consultative referendum on independence in November 2014. He was subsequently disqualified from holding electoral office for two years by the Supreme Court of Justice of Catalonia for disobeying the Constitutional Court in holding the referendum.

Carles Puigdemont took up his mantle, leading a coalition of secessionist parties through el procés, and ‘the law of disconnection’ of Catalonia from the rest of Spain. This was to entail the creation and development of independent Catalan institutions as a means of crafting a more coherent, autonomous, Catalan identity. These were to include, among other things, separate tax, social security and postal agencies, as well as installing the president of the Generalitat as head of state in place of the Spanish monarch, thus cementing Catalonia’s status as a republic.

This process mostly involved the parliament passing a series of decrees; however, over six million euros from the autonomous Catalan budget was also set aside to fund the contracting of public and private agencies to ‘plan, design, construct and operationalise state structures’ which would supplant their Spanish equivalents.

Puigdemont biggest moment in the spotlight to date came in October 2017. In the face of political and judicial opposition within and outwith Catalonia, but spurred on by the full-throated enthusiasm of the Catalan independence movement, he pressed ahead with a referendum on Catalan independence from Spain. Whilst the event was legislated formally by the Catalan parliament, it was ruled illegal by the Spanish Supreme Court, as it contravened Spain’s constitution. It was also regarded as illegitimate in the eyes of the international community.

Referendum day itself made international news, in no small part because it was marred by violent scenes as the Guardia Civil, taking their orders from the central Spanish government, sought to disrupt voters going to the polls and forcibly remove those who were manning polling stations.

Following the vote, Spanish Attorney General José Manuel Maza charged Puigdemont, and other leaders in the nationalist movement, with sedition and rebellion (Maza died unexpectedly less than a month later while at a conference in Buenos Aires). These charges – which do not exist in many European countries – provoked Puigdemont’s flight to Belgium. The Spanish government then applied Article 155 of the constitution for the first time in its history, suspending Catalonia’s autonomous government.

Despite being in exile in Brussels, Puigdemont conducted a remarkably successful election campaign, largely through adept use of social media and video links.
On 27 October, less than a week after the application of Article 155, Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy called snap elections aimed at “restoring legality and self-government to Catalonia as soon as possible, in the hope of removing the nationalists’ parliamentary majority. Despite being in exile in Brussels, Puigdemont conducted a remarkably successful election campaign, largely through adept use of social media and video links. After the votes were counted from the 21 December vote, his Junts per Catalunya (JxCat) formation emerged as the largest nationalist party, taking second place overall.

However, the December election has done very little to clear the political air in Spain. There has been endless wrangling by nationalists over attempts to swear in Puigdemont as president of Catalonia (despite him not being in the country), a position from which he was removed by the application of Article 155.

Predictably, the Spanish government and judiciary have opposed any such crowning, arguing that someone currently avoiding arrest abroad could not conceivably become Catalan president. But questions have also been raised as to how someone who can run as a candidate for parliament can be barred from leading a government in that same parliament. This is an area where legal and political distinctions become blurred. There is little – if any – legal clarity on these issues: the opinions of constitutional lawyers appear to diverge along partisan lines.

This is an area where legal and political distinctions become blurred. There is little – if any – legal clarity on these issues: the opinions of constitutional lawyers appear to diverge along partisan lines.
JxCat had sought to modify the law regulating the presidency of the Generalitat to allow Puigdemont to be sworn in remotely. However, this proposition has been postponed following the unwillingness of the other main nationalist party – and Puigdemont’s erstwhile coalition partners – Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (ERC), to support any such measure.

Trying to adjudicate on this mess is not easy. But a few observations might be made. It does seem hypocritical for a party as mired in corruption as Prime Minister Rajoy’s Partido Popular to argue that those with pending criminal charges cannot possibly hold political office. Spanish Finance Minister Cristóbal Montoro is currently under investigation for funding and contracting irregularities. Whilst there is no shortage of glass houses among the Spanish political classes, there is equally little compunction in stone-throwing.

Hypocrisy or not, this matter is likely to come down to a legal judgement. If the Spanish Supreme Court Judge Pablo Llarena, who is overseeing the case, brings formal charges against Puigdemont and the five parliamentary deputies who fled with him to Belgium, they will be constitutionally barred from running for office in future elections. They may even be barred from holding their current office as members of parliament, imperilling the nationalist majority in the chamber.

AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE
So what’s next in this intriguing drama? There is a deadline of 6 April for the Catalan parliament to swear in a new president and form a government before new elections are constitutionally mandated. If new elections were to be held, it is unlikely that the Catalan political landscape would change significantly. With the constitutional question so prominent, and with voters now so entrenched in terms of their voting intentions, there would likely be little movement away from where things stand now.

That said, a change of just a few seats could alter the balance of power in the Catalan parliament. The nationalist parties hold a narrow advantage which they are eager to maintain. And while many within Puigdemont’s party have been unwilling to entertain an alternative candidate, there is now an acceptance – most notably from Puigdemont himself – that the cause of Catalan independence is greater than just one man. Forming a government is therefore imperative if they wish to maintain momentum.

Looking forward, it is clear that he is now largely beholden to events and decisions taking place in Barcelona.
And what of Puidgemont’s future? An attempt to swear him in as president on 9 February, remotely through a video link, was aborted at the last minute by the presiding officer Roger Torrent, a member of Puigdemont’s own party. This was a striking development: whilst Torrent afterwards defended his leader as “the only candidate”, it was clear that the party had blinked. This is understandable. The fractious nationalist alliance is eager to swear in a president as soon as possible, with the April deadline looming. But this has to be a decision that won’t backfire: any swearing-in must crown a president who can focus on leading. Can a man in exile assume such a role?

Puigdemont decision to step aside may thus prove to be a pivotal moment in this ongoing drama. And for all his popularity within the pro-independence movement, looking forward, it is clear that he is now largely beholden to events and decisions taking place in Barcelona.

Leaked text messages from the fugitive leader in the immediate aftermath of his aborted investiture in February showed that the setback had disillusioned him to any prospect of returning to power, and to the success of the nationalist cause. Yet his aides have reportedly been sounding out possible residences for the deposed president in Brussels. And his announcement of the formation of a Council of the Republic, based there, suggests he envisages a prominent role for himself going forward. This unofficial council, made up of representatives from all three pro-independence parties, will ‘lead the way towards effective independence. This sounds very much like the template for a government in exile.
Would it matter if Puidgemont sought to lead the Catalan nationalist movement whilst being based elsewhere? Some nationalists think not: they contend that his physical absence from the Catalan political scene does not impede his participation in the political process. Yet even in the information age, government – or even political leadership – by Skype may not be a proposition that would appeal to most Catalans.

It seems inevitable that another figure may be required to fill the sizeable vacuum created by Puigdemont’s distance from his own political frontline. However, in his statement “provisionally” renouncing his candidacy to the presidency, he alluded to his intention to remain in public life: I will be glad, in due course, to serve the people in whatever capacity they ask me to.

In the meantime, questions over his legal status continue to hover over everything. While Spanish courts issued a European Arrest Warrant for Puigdemont in November, this was rescinded when it seemed likely that Belgium might rule in his favour. There had been talk of re-activating the warrant, but a request from the Spanish government to do so was rejected by Spain’s Supreme Court. This instance illuminates an important point, one that is often lost in the heated furore over how the Spanish establishment has responded to Catalan secessionism: whilst questions have been asked about the independence of Spain’s judiciary, it is not merely a tool of the Partido Popular as its detractors would claim.

Amidst all of this uncertainty, one thing is clear: if Puigdemont does decide to return to Spain, he will face immediate arrest.
Amidst all of this uncertainty, one thing is clear: if Puigdemont does decide to return to Spain, he will face immediate arrest. Indeed on 22 February, a Spanish comedian, Joaquín Reyes, known for his impersonations, was nearly arrested by police while filming a comedy sketch whilst in-character as Puigdemont. Reality is often funnier than fiction – but the prospect of Puigdemont returning to move freely around Catalonia is not one that the Spanish authorities will countenance.

Mariano Rajoy may well fear some kind of swearing-in ceremony by stealth. It seems clear that Puigdemont flight, and his success in internationalizing the Catalan crisis (although the Spanish authorities also helped with this due to the heavy-handed police actions of 1 October), has not diminished his stature in the eyes of his supporters. Puidgemont return to Catalonia would be greeted with jubilation. Such scenes would be a PR disaster for the Spanish government which consistently seeks to diminish Puigdemont as a viable political actor.

Madrid cannot afford for Puigdemont to be endowed with the legitimizing power of the office of president.
Most of all, Madrid cannot afford for Puigdemont to be endowed with the legitimizing power of the office of president. With his recent renouncement, Madrid has succeeded in that aim – for now. But this latest development is by no means a convenient solution for either side. Nor does it do anything to ease the current impasse. Puigdemont chosen replacement faces a legal predicament of his own – he is currently in prison.

Puigdemont remains a very popular figure among the half of Catalonia’s population that seeks independence. It is likely that – for them at least – he will have secured his place in history as the president who proclaimed the Catalan Republic, and brought his nation to the brink of autonomy. To the other half of Catalonia – and most of the rest of Spain – he is a charlatan and a fraud who made undeliverable promises and fractured a society he was duty-bound to lead. Whatever the future holds for him, and the nation he seeks to lead to independence, Puigdemont’s legacy will be a divisive one. It is always thus with historically significant figures.
