The story is different: the assault on the Capitol by Donald Trump's supporters, the chaotic reign of his counterpart Jair Bolsonaro, the offensives targeting Muslims in Narendra Modi's India, or the dazzling success of the racist slogans of Italian League leader Matteo Salvini have highlighted the devastating power on a global scale of the calls to hatred and disinformation that circulate in real time on social media.

Asie-Pacifique - la nouvelle poudrière

As soon as he came to power in 2012, Xi Jinping clearly stated his ambition for a national renaissance. He will combine this with the construction of a powerful army and a certain vision of Chinese territory, which includes the reunification of Taiwan. In this quest, control of the oceans has become a crucial issue, and America an obstacle. In the South China Sea and the Pacific, the Chinese Communist Party has been pursuing a strategy to undermine American influence for the past decade. Relying on the active participation of maritime militias - fishermen trained by the military - China is creating a grey area between war and peace that destabilizes both its neighbors and the world's leading military power.
