Bilateral meeting of counterparts. On the Right: Prime Minister of India, Foreign Minister of India, National Security Advisor of India, Ambassador of India to US and senior diplomats. On the Left: Head of DOGE, Nanny, Toddler 1 (on lap), Toddler 2, Toddler 3, Girlfriend. Is this true?? Fake?

Remember how Russia fought in Tchetchenie. Russia was losing the war. A peace deal. Russia used this to strengthen their forces. Then another attack. This time by a brutal warlord who beat Tchetchenie into submission. We have to learn our lessons from the past.

www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/.... Prachtig beschreven waar Stine Jensen nu staat t.o.v. VS. Hier kan ik mij helemaal in vinden.

Trump uit scherpe kritiek op Zelensky en geeft Oekraïne de schuld van de oorlog www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/... Trump heeft nog appeltje met hem te schillen ivm impeachment procedure. Waarbij Zelensky eerlijk had verteld dat Trump hem gevraagd had naar ‘shit’ over Hunter Biden. Deze man klopt niet.

Is Europa bereid te vechten en te sterven voor Oekraïne? 'Antwoord is nee'. Zeker niet voor een akkoord dat is opgesteld door twee megalomane narcisten waarbij Europa dat de troepen moet leveren geen partij is!

No international body is searching for hundreds of Yazidi women and girls still held captive by the Islamic State. Instead, that task has been taken up by a sprawling network of activists, survivors, family members, informants and amateur detectives.

I am really scared for what’s coming to us in Europe. But I am an optimist. Sometimes from adversity good things come out. We have to see Trump and his followers as they are.

‘Amerikanen willen helft Oekraïense aardmetalen in ruil voor steun aan Kyiv’

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/16/w.... It’s history being relived. It looks like this week in Saoedi Arabia the US and Russia divide Ukraine and as a subsequence Europe between them. This mistake shall probably never going to be undone.

‘They may be Russian some day’: was this the week that changed the war in Ukraine? What a crazy world we now live in.

Voor ouderen riskante gordelroos te voorkomen, maar vaccin is soms te duur. Bizar in Duitsland, Frankrijk en UK wordt het gewoon vergoed. Voor Nederland TE DUUR! Hoe kan dit??? Wij zijn een van de rijkste landen ter wereld.

Vance stuns Munich conference with blistering attack on Europe’s leaders. Attack Europe, and be big buddies with Russia. Once the far right in Europe is on the same level as Russia and Trump US, the US will find itself on the defensive side. Because there will not be a Europe anymore.
