Definition

Russian officials have become increasingly aware of their public diplomacy problem. Hence, over the past decade, Kremlin as well as the Russian academic community has started paying increasing attention – both in word and by deed – to Russia’s image and perceptions abroad. This concern has become even more salient due to Russia’s aspiration to a “Global Power” status and the need to be recognized as such, not just by its traditional “allies” but more importantly, by the West.

The EU’s foreign and security policy and its security and defence policy are both works in progress still, and a bit of “work in regress” at the same time. The demands of Nominee Josep Borrell as High Representative will be high if the goals laid out in the Treaty on European Union are to be taken seriously.

Overall in Europe water use is characterized by 65% ground water, 35% surface water, and a very small amount from the desalination of salt water.

The total surface water and ground water use by different sectors in Europe is 64% agriculture, 20% energy, 12% public supply and 4% industry.

In Europe alone 14 million do not have access to basic drinking water source. 17% of Europe’s territory and at least 11% of the population has been affected by water scarcity.

In the European aviation sector, there is no middle ground anymore. On scheduled flights, travellers have to choose between service and price. There is no longer room for holiday carriers and regional airlines, after tremendous consolidation that occurred in the last two years. Holiday carriers like Air Berlin, Monarch Airlines, Primera Air and Germania disappeared. In addition, several regional airlines ceased to exist and Flybe, the largest regional airline in Europe, was forcefully sold to a consortium of buyers led by Virgin Atlantic.
