Hacked - The crippling liberal facade of Mitsotakis

The wiretapping scandal has caused considerable problems for the Greek government and inevitably damaged the public image of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis at national and international level. There is no doubt that a shadow of doubt and uncertainty hovers over Greek society. Many experts and political analysts are concerned about the state of democratic institutions and freedom of expression in the country. As a result, Mitsotakis is losing not only his liberal and progressive façade, but also his voters, as the latest polls show.

The Mediterranean, a ground zero for dialogue between progress and the environment

These are the drawbacks of having a sea that is geographically almost closed, but historically open to all cultures: it is the first to benefit from progress, but also the first to suffer setbacks.
In recent decades, the millennia-long dialogue with the Mediterranean has turned its back on a natural environment that is struggling to stop being a dumping ground and return to being a garden of civilisations. The bad news is that its degradation is accelerating in the wake of the climate crisis. The good news is that all the alarm bells have gone off and there are many initiatives committed to reversing the situation.

Spain is making progress in the fight against violence against women

Women's rights and violence against women have gained a lot of attention in Spain for years. With each new case of gender-based violence that comes to light, an outcry goes up across society in Spain, driving thousands to protest in the streets chanting the phrase "Ni Una Más" - "not one more". “Violencia de Genero" - gender-based violence and gender justice is given a lot of space and airtime in the media and on TV in Spain. It is a topic on the evening news as well as on the Spanish Netflix hit "Alba".

Morocco: the new investment land for Germany

Thanks to its privileged geographical location and colossal investments in various economic sectors, Morocco is emerging as the new "Eldorado" for German investors. Morocco's privileged geographical location in the north of the African continent, facing the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean, as well as its massive investment policy in the transport and logistics sectors for more than a decade, are undeniable assets that put Morocco in strategic focus.

Annalena Baerbock – The new "Iron Lady" of the Mediterranean?

In view of the aggressive statements from Athens and Ankara, Baerbock should act as a targeted mediator during her visit to Greece. While she clearly sided with Greece in the Turkish-Greek conflict, this stance also leaves room for questions: If both Greece and Turkey are one of the most important partners in Europe, where does Baerbock draw the line?

Inflationary wave in the Mediterranean

The current inflationary trend is the result of a combination of factors such as production bottlenecks after the pandemic, the post-Covid rush for recovery and, above all, the war in Ukraine. Europe, the US and the various countries of the Mediterranean basin are proving unable to control this historic escalation in energy supply prices.
