It doesn’t have to be an “ass explode” and “shoot out a candle”, as Thomas Bernhard once gave free rein to his thoughts on comedy theory. Being funny to look at is already an effort that runs counter to the interests of the acting subject. There are two ways in which this effort can currently be seen in the Theater in der Josefstadt.

Singh spoke with his Chinese counterpart, General Li Shangfu, Thursday, before the meeting of defense ministers of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which India chairs this year.

India’s defense minister “categorically” reiterated New Delhi’s position, according to a statement issued by his ministry on Thursday evening.

General Lee announced in a statement posted online Friday that the situation on the border was “stable”. “We hope the two sides will work together to continuously build mutual trust,” he said.

background of the border dispute

• Relations between the two Asian powers have been strained since a clash in the region killed 20 Indian soldiers and at least four Chinese soldiers in June 2020.
• Since then, the two neighbors have massed tens of thousands of troops along the border. The military deployment continued despite 18 rounds of talks between the two countries’ top military officials.
• India is worried regarding the growing military presence of its northern neighbour, while disputes over its 3,500 km border are a constant source of tension.
• China claims the entire state of Arunachal Pradesh in northeastern India, considering it part of Tibet. The two sides fought a border war in 1962.
• Beijing and New Delhi regularly accuse each other of trying to seize territory along the unofficial dividing line between them, known as the Line of Actual Control.

The clash that took place in 2020 along the western border separating Tibet from the Indian state of Ladakh led to a sharp deterioration in relations, prompting both sides to send large reinforcements to the region.

The Mexican government and the migrants who were part of a new caravan bound for Mexico City agreed to put an end to it.

The National Institute of Migration of Mexico (INM) decided to regularize regarding 3,500 migrants who had left in a caravan from Tapachula heading north. In this sense, the authorities will deliver humanitarian visas to women traveling with children.

For their part, single men and women will receive documentation to transit through the territory of that country legally. They will have a period of 45 days to do so.

The migrants voted in favor of the proposal in an assembly by show of hands, from the central park of Villa Comaltitlán, in Chiapas, in the southern state of Mexico.

The officials have already begun the censuses in said public area, while the documents will be delivered to a shelter set up for this purpose.

In the case of children and families, the Office of the Attorney for the Defense of Minors will attend to their situation. The decision will be followed by the National Institute of Migration.

Migrants in Mexico

The Mexican authorities reported that they will not provide buses for the movement of migrants. However, by having documentation, they will be able to move legally through the country by their own means.

Many migrants have run out of money, and this government decision gives them the opportunity to continue on their way north. Many said that the first objective is to reach Mexico City.

In this sense, several people expressed their desire to continue this journey together, in order to avoid risks and setbacks with criminal gangs.

The final goal would undoubtedly be the United States. The dream of migrants is to reach the northern nation to work and give their family a better future.

Mexico has historically been a transit territory for thousands of people seeking to achieve the American dream.
