Sex Trafficking In Romania: Trans-Atlantic Sex Trade Of 2022

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 4, 20220

Sex-Trafficking is a significant problem in today’s world. Individuals are trafficked for labour (28% of human trafficking ), and females specifically and predominantly as sex slaves(72% of all human trafficking). Romanian females as young as 10 years form a third of the sex trafficking in the United Kingdom. Romania is one of the more economically backward countries in Europe, with little to nothing for the locals not living in Romania’s capital city Bucharest. Hence recruiters go up to young girls and charm and flatter them. These young girls then listen to their middle-aged ‘boyfriends’ who pretend to be in love with them. Girls, unbeknownst to them, are at the time recruited from their schoolyard by these men. In 2021 there were 429 cases of sex trafficking identified in Romania. Ha...

Russo-Ukrainian War Melts Winter War Ice: Finland Moves Closer To Joining NATO

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 2, 20220

Sweden and, most importantly, Finland are the only E.U. not to join North Atlantic Treaty Organisation(N.A.T.O), constituting the U.S.A and other European countries. This is subject to change as both the countries come inches close to becoming part of N.A.T.O. after the Madrid summit on 29th June 2022. Finland achieved its independence from Russia in 1917. However, being at the border of a powerful state and losing a war resulted in losing 10% of their land. Finland opted for what war experts called ‘Finladisation’, i.e. opting to be neutral when bordered by a strong neighbour. The attack on Ukraine in Finland has changed its outlook. 62% of Fins have voted for joining N.A.T.O. in 2022, which had been 7% in 2017. Finland is primarily a key to this conflict if its membership in N.

The Papuan Conflict: Unknown War That Still Continues

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 2, 20220

The Papuan movement is little known worldwide, with little media covering the situation. As the Russo-Ukrainian conflict captures the attention due to the N.A.T.O and American planning because of domestic and international discrimination, the Papuan tribe's pain is not recognised. It is on the brink of utter submission to its aggressors Indonesia. The conflict is old as the nation of Indonesia and West Papua. In 1961 the Dutch relinquished their control over the Dutch East Indies, becoming Indonesia. The Guineas, later renamed West Papua, were also freed in 1962. However, this independence did not last long as Indonesians took control of the territory and annexed it in 1963. In the form of the U.N., the Western powers decreed the Act Of Free Choice in 1969.

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 1, 20220

Since the rise of industrialisation and urbanisation across the globe for human leisure and comfort, these technological advancements have taken a toll on nature and the world's environments. Many natural disasters and ill changes have occurred globally ever since and continue to plague the Earth's ecosystem to the point of destruction.

However, the messengers of this message are getting killed in Columbia. In Columbia, after the historic 2016 peace agreement ended, a 50-year-old civil war between the government and the leftist F.A.R.C. guerrillas. The programme sought t...

Paedophilia In India: Elders’ Way Of Respect Reeks Conservative Backwardness

Agamapar ChadhaJune 28, 20220

Paedophilia in India, from a social point of view and victim’s perspective, remains undeterred even after the law is made for it. The victims of this sexual misconduct have to suffer and continue to stay mum. This is because paedophilia is no more than just another taboo due to the obvious sexual connotation. Adding on to the sex is the incestuous sexual misconduct which conflicts with India’s conservative family values. An Aunt, an in-law or parents of the child’s violator will never believe such an act and discard any complaint by children as they don’t think the violators are capable of acting this way. Moreover, due to the taboo nature of sex in India, children in society are less informed and are to trust and obey elders in their community completely. This makes them more susceptib

Political Sugarcoating Of India: A Sweet Truth Too Bitter To Bare 

Agamapar ChadhaJune 25, 20220

Consuming something sweet is considered a good luck charm among Indians before they take on any tumultuous challenge. However, an estimated 77 million diabetics and 700,000 deaths due to diabetes leave a terrible aftertaste of the sweets consumed. Many media reports have claimed India is the 'Diabetes Capital' of the world. On average, Indians consume 50g of sugar daily. Conversely, WHO recommends half of that -- 25g in one day. The perpetrator of such a medically chronic epidemic can be found in the politics of the sugar industry, and the free reign that is given to companies by politicians. This issue could be traced to pre-colonial India, where the industrialisation of white sugar (a nutrient less chemically induced sweetener) combined with tariffs in 1930 increased its productio...
