“La central de Fukushima parece un boxeador sonado: encajaba y encajaba golpes mientras la grada -en este caso el planeta entero- contemplaba con angustia deseando que no cayera a la lona ni tirara la toalla.” — Japón’2011 (El País)

“Hay que estar serio unas veces y otras dejarse emocionar:

The Spanish non-paper declares the
"unfeasibility" of any regionally acceptable solution while
Algeria and Morocco remain at each other's throats. It is
also clearly colored by and suggests a solution similar to
the approach which Spain has taken with its own region of
Catalonia. That is, abandoning "decolonization" vocabulary
such as sovereignty and independence in favor of
"globalization" vocabulary such as regionalization, autonomy,
and self-rule (page 9). Spain's reliance on Algerian natural
gas and on Moroccan labor, trade and CT cooperation puts it
in the awkward position of having to maintain good relations
with both nations. Spain's national interest clearly lies
with resolving this dispute, opening the Morocco-Algeria
border, and engaging a regionally integrated North African
economy.
