The Europeans

crisis of the US and the EU imposed against Russia 3 package of sanctions, which provide the biggest limitation of access banks, as well as energy and defense sectors of the company to long-term Western credits. A ban on the cooperation of US and European companies to Russia in deepwater production projects, the Arctic, and shale oil, as well as an embargo on exports to the Russian technology for such projects, including equipment for horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing.

that led to the test I didn’t know what I was getting into since I have never taken an AP test, but during the day of the exam I was thrust upon the action. The amount of questions that required a comprehensive back catalogue of almost 600 years of European history was staggering. When time was called I didn’t even finish some of the questions and when I went to the FRQs they seemed almost of a different language of what they were asking of me. However, I was able to make it and relaxed because…

Africa. This adds up to almost 3,000,000 migrants: those who are genuine refugees and those who are pretending to be refugees. All of these people are attempting to reach the shores of Europe. This is a controversial issue and one that has challenged European morality and responsibility to a level that has rarely been seen.

Since 1994 immigration control has risen to the centre of electoral campaigns across European countries, giving salience to the growing discontinuity between public opinion and policy (Lahav and Guiraudon: 2006).

The gap between…

Investments in the operations department focusing on retirement. I thought it would be interesting to compare a position on the other side of Finance. When I first read about the project, I decided I would search for jobs in European countries as I am more familiar with European languages and culture. Having visited England before, I decided to look a careers and opportunities in England. I took several tests between both sites, I took the Cross Cultural…

Henry James are mostly American people who came in Europe at a moment in their lives. They have lived in Europe from the beginning of their life, as in the case of Madame Merle, or they came there in their adulthood, like Isabel did. Either way, the European lifestyle had an influence on their shaping of identity. Isabel Archer is the main character of James’s novel “The Portrait of a Lady”. The personality she has created while living in America was highly touched by moving in…

great tourist location due to its sun kissed beaches, historical sights and its robust culture. What most people don’t know is its economy has been under fire for years. Back in 2013, Cyprus was the fifth European Union (EU) state to ask for financial assistance from the European Commission, the European Central Bank and from the International Monetary Fund. Together these three are known as Troika. Cyprus tried to recover on its own, but ended up needing assistance. This led to possibly one of…

According to the Center for Immigration Studies the terrorist attacks of 2001 or the economic slowdown of 2000 didn't hinder the flow of immigrants into our country. The United States is averaging about 1.3 million new immigrants every year. Additionally,there are about 750,000 births to immigrant families. In 2002 the number of immigrants without a high school diploma is 3.5 times more than native born Americans. 17.6 % of immigrants and their children under 18 live under the poverty line,…
