Dr. Laetitia Muadi called for not influencing labor inspectors in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She introduced Finance Minister LikundeR as a loyal executor of President Félix Tshisekedi's directives. Muadi stated that no category of civil servants was currently receiving their full salary scale, specifically citing university professors, teachers, doctors, and nurses. According to her, the government was gradually adjusting salaries based on the state budget and treasury. She denied that the president ordered, during the 94th Cabinet meeting, the payment of 100% of their salary scale to labor inspectors and controllers. She indicated that presidential instructions were instead focused on accelerating the reform of the General Labor Inspection (IGT), the monthly payment of salaries, and the administrative and financial autonomy of the agency. Muadi stated that these measures had been implemented: a new IGT had been established, salaries had been integrated into the liquidation state for the fourth quarter, and operating and installation credits were included in the 2027 finance bill. She specified that inspectors and controllers were receiving 30% of their salary scale and were demanding 100%. According to her, the government had opted to increase remuneration in phases, as it had done for other categories of civil servants, depending on budgetary means. #RDC #Travail #Syndicats (translated)

Emmanuel Macron thanked German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier for his visit to Bordeaux and presented three sites as symbols of European space and industrial ambitions. He wrote that Ariane 6, at ArianeGroup, affirmed European autonomy in access to space, while the reusable Nyx capsule, developed by the Franco-German company The Exploration Company, foreshadowed, in his view, the space transportation of tomorrow. Macron also mentioned the Laser Mégajoule, where he said that France was mobilizing strategic scientific and technological excellence for its deterrence and sovereignty. He described these three visits as complementary ambitions and presented France and Germany as the engine of a more sovereign, competitive, and independent Europe. #Espace #Industrie #Europe (translated)

David Lisnard believes that the SCAF and MGCS programs, launched in 2017 by Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel to develop the future combat aircraft and tank, are strategic and industrial dead ends. He criticized French leaders for prioritizing Franco-German cooperation without first verifying the convergence of military interests, technological mastery, and the distribution of industrial responsibilities. According to him, a high-level Franco-German seminar held on October 7 would have revealed a different method: starting from the needs of the armed forces and industrial interests, then allowing companies to build viable cooperations before giving them, if necessary, a political translation. Lisnard stated that during the negotiations on the MGCS, Germany was preparing for the succession of the Leopard 2, notably with the Leopard 3 project, and that the delay created a military vulnerability. He called for a break with a conception of European defense that, according to him, confuses cooperation with the dilution of sovereignties. He advocated for a distribution of roles in which the political power sets ambitions and means, the armed forces define their needs, and the industries develop solutions and partnerships. Lisnard also urged for the immediate preparation of the renewal of French ground combat capabilities, beyond the simple replacement of the Leclerc, notably by integrating armored vehicles, drones, robotics, artificial intelligence, and data management. He estimated that this required investments in industry, a recovery of public finances, and a more efficient use of military credits. Finally, he accused the current government of having caused France to lose valuable years and argued that the issue concerned its ability to prepare for future conflicts, ensure the security of the French people, and defend the nation. #Défense #Souveraineté #Coopération (translated)

Jaf gave an overview of the first day of the Marrakech Air Show. He wrote that Morocco would acquire South Korean FA-50 planes and that the Kingdom and Harmattan AI would jointly produce 55,000 drones. He also indicated that the two parties would design, develop, and manufacture a new attack drone, named Irifi, which he claimed would have a range of 2,000 kilometers. Jaf added that the Moroccan company MMI was now manufacturing guided missiles, remote-operated turret systems, mortar systems, and loitering munitions. He also reported the participation of the F-35 at the Air Show for the first time, estimating that this would fuel rumors. He finally praised what he described as a strong acceleration of the Kingdom's military industry. #MarrakechAirShow #IndustrieMilitaire #Maroc (translated)

Pierre Poilievre indicated that a vote should take place today on the Conservative emergency aid plan aimed at reducing fuel expenses. He specified that it proposed to eliminate all fuel taxes until at least July 1, to remove the industrial carbon tax and the Clean Fuels Regulation, as well as to accelerate the creation of diesel refining and transportation capacities. He asserted that these measures would increase Canadian diesel production, reduce costs for consumers, and strengthen Canada's autonomy. https://t.co/Ck8J4R1PRK #Carburants #Économie #Canada (translated)

U.M. OSINT explained that he is often criticized for speaking of "the Palestinians" instead of just Hamas. Highlighting Hamas conveys the impression in the West, in his view, that the Palestinians are largely innocent and the responsibility lies solely with a ruling class. In the Gaza Strip and, in a different composition, in the West Bank, the Islamic Jihad (PIJ), the PFLP, the DFLP, the Martyrs' Brigades, Fatah, and other groups are also active. According to U.M. OSINT, the motivation of these groups is distorted in the West. Their goal is the destruction of Israel; they internally view Israel's existence as an occupation of their land. This perspective is also adopted by Western left extremists. U.M. OSINT referred to the resistance against Israel's existence as Muqāwama and stated that civilian, peaceful resistance means Ṣumūd. Citing the recent survey by the Palestinian PCPSR (Poll No 97, 12.08.2026), he wrote that 50% of respondents opposed a two-state solution and 32% supported armed resistance. The latter figure is the lowest ever recorded; in December 2023, it was at 68%. According to an INSS survey (National Security Studies INSS, Special Survey: Palestinian Public Opinion in the West Bank, 17.09.2026), 43% support a Palestinian state between the Jordan and the Mediterranean. Of those, 26% wanted to allow no Jewish presence in such a state, which, according to U.M. OSINT, affects nearly 1.5 million Palestinians. To justify his terminology, he referred to historical comparisons: despite armed resistance in Italy, today, people talk about the Allies' fight against Italy and not just against the Partito Nazionale Fascista. The pro-imperial Taisei Yokusankai is hardly known in Europe; people simply talk about Japan. In World War II, more than 17 million Germans fought, and millions also contributed to the armaments industry and in organizations. It would be strange, he wrote, to attribute the war solely to members of the NSDAP. U.M. OSINT argued that a society bears collective responsibility when it is permeated by a system. Whether Palestinians internally struggle for an Islamist or secular society is of no consequence to Israel externally. In his view, the portrayal of the situation as an occupation of the West Bank is directed at uninformed people in the West. The so-called resistance began long before the founding of Israel and took on current structures while Israel had not yet occupied anything; at that time, the Palestinian autonomous areas were occupied and annexed by Jordan and Egypt. Additionally, from at least 1947, about 1,000 former members of the Waffen-SS fought on the Palestinian side in the so-called Arab Liberation Army (ALA). If he refers to a specific association or terrorist organization, he names it explicitly; otherwise, he speaks of the Palestinians. #Palästinenser #Hamas #Nahostkonflikt (translated)

It notes that lifestyles have changed faster than the collective frameworks that accompany them (p. 25). By 2035, it describes the erosion of social ties, the progression of loneliness, the growing role of digital technology and AI, less linear life paths, and the inadequacy of the housing stock (p. 7-16). By 2050, it addresses culture as a lever for cohesion and sovereignty, autonomy and engagement in a more digitized society, and the conditions for a livable life throughout the territory (p. 16-24).
