Thanks a lot for this Liam!

Howard is still to have a look at the military component though. He will come back to us tomorrow.

Hello everyone,

@liam: thanks for your message!

Dear all,

I added my part on Obama and Cuba both on the “Docs” and “Etherpad”.

I do agree with you on the neo-colonialism of the US towards Cuba. Obama’s speech and his “new course” on Cuba reflect strong power fault-lines.

As you will see, I addressed several issues in this paper, including:

Hello to all,

I have a few questions:

My questions are the following:

1. In most documents, the main focus regarding conflict in our reading material seems to be at the inter-States level, but internal […]

Hello Luke,

Can you try this: https://www.galtung-institut.de/en/docs/additional-reading-on-prof-galtungs-approach/

Dear all,

I had a very interesting Skype conversation with Naakow this morning.

First of all, he was impressed that we managed to submit some interesting lines considering that the assignment was complicated and so short at the same time. He also apologised for not supporting us during the assignment as he has been sick for the last 4-5…[Read more]

@Luke: sorry our messages crossed. I feel that there is a reference to aid in the UK part, so no problem with me!

One small detail: can we recapitalise the “State” word (Luke’s correction got lost in the process) ?

@Laura and @Natalee: would it be possible for you to reduce a bit your section (one or two sentences)? Or it is okay with you if the references appear as footnotes and not in the content of the document? The […]

Hello again,

I have done some additional research and I think it would be best to modify my proposition regarding humanitarian support: the UK are actually in the top five OCDE countries who respect the 0,7% […]

Hello Luke, thank you so much for your quick reply and your support in finalising the assignment.
