U.S. can't solve Afghanistan problem alone
The West cannot solve the problem of Afghanistan alone. The U.S. and its European allies can treat the symptoms, but they can only stave off the absolute disaster for a period of time, at the cost of much blood and treasure.
Afghanistan must begin with changes in its governmental structure, including a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet like that of Finland, plus a committee-type legislature like Switzerland's. 1/4 of all legislators committee should face election each year. Also needed is a paradigm shift toward democracy, adopting Global Unity Constitutional Standards and the core values of One World under One Set of Laws and revising the constitution to keep pace with the times. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace.
Congress can meld immigration, Dreamers issue
President Trump continued to soften a few of his hard-core positions on immigration Tuesday at an extraordinary, bipartisan, deal-cutting meeting with lawmakers at the White House.
To eliminate the conditions that create refugees, the international community needs to agree on uniform constitutional standards that conform to the ideals of human rights, constitutionalism, international law andworld law (including natural law). This means complying with Article 1 of the Humanitarian Charter, which deals with the right of each person to live a normal life. See the Charter for Permanent Peace for more.
2018 is a pre-election year and the Kiev "elites" will be pursuing one tactics - concentration of resources. The set of pre-election measures will include full control of mass media, accumulation of financial flows for the future campaign, creation of "technical" political projects and pressing of political rivals. Therefore, "the crackdown" process is very likely to intensify in 2018.
Ukraine in a Position to its Corrupt Elites and Russia Too. 2018 is starting to shape up like 2013. President Petro Poroshenko consolidates his power by foot dragging on reforms promised to Western donors, then by harassing opponents. Like the Yanukovych era, there is no rule of law, no parliamentary accountability, and no effective pursuit of corrupt officials or even of Yanukovych who stole billions. Conditions resemble those that led to the 2004 and 2014 "street" revolutions, a situation that officials continuously say cannot be allowed because it would lead to instability and renewed Russian aggression.
Though Vladimir Putin's presidential re-election in March will make international headlines, the greatest achievement of the election cycle will be the giant strides that Russian society has taken despite the government's attempts to squash any form of dissent. There is a renewed focus on an improved domestic agenda and a serious conversation about issues of patronage that perpetuate a system benefiting only the wealthy few.
