“Ukraine is a vital link for Europe: our energy transportation networks; our location between the European Union and Eurasia. We're the melting pot of Catholicism and Orthodox Christianity.

“The further conquest of space will make it possible, for example, to create systems of satellites making daily revolutions around our planet at an altitude of some 40,000 kilometers, and to assure universal communications and the relaying of radio and television transmissions. Such an arrangement might prove more useful, economically, than the construction of radio relay systems over the whole surface of the earth. The great accuracy of movement of these satellites will provide a reliable basis for solving navigational problems” WholeProblemMightEarthSpaceExampleMovementTelevisionPlanetsCommunicationRevolutionProveUniversalBasesRadioSurfaceConstructionArrangementsConquestOur PlanetAccuracySatellitesTransmissionRelays Author:Sergei Korolev

“I think it's just been a core part of the Cuban revolution to have a very high level of internationalism. I mean, these cases you've mentioned are cases in point, but the most extreme case was the liberation of Africa. Take the case of Angola for example, and there are real connections between Cuba and Angola-much of the Cuban population comes from Angola.” ThinkingMeanRealLevelsCasesExampleRevolutionConnectionsPopulationExtremesCoreLiberationCubaCubanHigh LevelInternationalismCuban RevolutionReal ConnectionAngola Author:Noam Chomsky
