My thoughts on this have not changed over the past twenty years, only my sense of urgency. I hope all of this will help push these ideas and policies forward.
Of course, sure, Zelenskyy, Trump, and Putin are exactly the same. My goodness, how could this kind of cheap, third-rate propaganda be influencing some people so much?
Leaving this in foreign hands is a clear mistake. Federated networks, with cores in different countries, could be an acceptable solution, but anything else cannot be accepted.
Europeans should ask them to leave, if they are not going to help in our defense, and that is something that Trump has made clear more than once, so that we want them here? They are just a basis for operations for American against our democracy
How this man saved the euro with a simple press conference and authentic determination in the European project should be studied by current European leaders
Leadership, ambition and determination is needed. Our leaders do not have plenty, but if they can gather enough we will continue to be an autonomous international actor, if we will not be relegated to a market -firing market for rivals not very friendly
He is a Kremlin puppet, a Russian agent, and the population of the USA is delighted with it, the minority that opposes him is not enough to avoid this. The sooner we understand and readjust our foreign policy accordingly, the better we will go
I am convinced of it, but I also believe that only GDP is not a sufficient indicator, things such as industrial production or R&D in the subject can be factors that complicate the thing.
In any case I am sure that a united European army would give Moscow cold sweats
Of course, Zelenskyy is an evil ruler who hates his people, and that justifies a violation of his sovereignty and the annexation of their territories, because ... well because ... I don't know something that blames Brussels bureaucrats, neither is that you strive a lot in the narrative
It could be, I'm not a military expert, but I have eyes in my face and I can see that they're not capable of gaining air superiority against one of the poorest countries in Europe. Maybe they didn't want to, but I believe they couldn't. I see that it's almost been three years since the Moskva sank, and there's still no replacement in sight. Maybe they don't want to build one, but I think they can't.
Maybe I'm quite deluded about Russia.
That is the only way, to tell Ukraine that it still has real allies, that as much as the USA withdraws, we will put in. Any other option is to be a whore and pay for the night.
A similar interpretation was made of that photo in Europe these four years, now we have understood that it represents something different.
In the photo there are people who do not want more democracy (stop the count they shouted) and now we see that they are the majority, they were in 2016 and in 2020 only the shock of covid made them not be. The US population no longer wants democracy and this photo represents them.
