Those going to London need to bring more than just words to the table. They need to have concrete proposals and commitments in their suitcases. Words alone won't change the trajectory, properly funded actions, political will and courage are required to do so.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk responds, something we hopefully see a lot more of that from other European leaders. It's never been clearer than in this moment that Trump is Putin's ally, not Europe's.

Spain joins in with its support of Ukraine. Hopefully, Trump's tantrum will lead to significant action from Europe on Ukraine.

When Russia invaded Ukraine, Finland’s then-president Niinistö said that the masks had fallen. If anyone was still clinging onto some kind of hope of Trump coming around on Ukraine, this disgrace of a press conference should make everything clear now. Trump is anti-Ukraine. Pro-Russia.

It is very hard to accept, but it is no longer safe to move EU governments & societies to US clouds. Not only is it dangerous to do so, it is also likely flat out illegal in the near feature. We're trading convenience for utter dependence on a mad king. It should stop. berthub.eu/articles/pos...

This is my conclusion too. Therefore I’ve recommended a joint #nuclear R&D program for the NB8 states, Poland and Ukraine. Share the knowledge, but build independent #deterrents or breakout capabilities.

I was the Commander of the @ISS when Andy, @Astro_Andreas flew his first space mission. He is one of the most competent, trustworthy, and honest people I’ve ever met. This rhetoric is beyond the pale but, sadly, not surprising. He does not deserve this kind of disrespect.

Olaf Scholz mocked British railways over “broken tracks and bad trains”, claiming that "nothing works any more” in the UK. Turns out: Germany rail problems have become so bad that Deutsche Bahn long-distance service is less punctual than even the worst operator in Britain. www.ft.com/content/d3b6...

Trump is now an aide in Russia’s regime change plan for Ukraine. Europeans need to act NOW, not after the German elections, to make sure Ukrainians have an alternative. All the worst came true and there is no other way to put it than that the US is in Russia’s team now.
