White smoke in Berlin: The new coalition seems to have agreed with the Greens on a massive debt brake change for defense, infrastructure and climate investments and the states.

A must read by @fsaraceno.bsky.social on Commission's ReArm, including relevant comments re/ risks from using built in flexibility of EU fiscal rules. In my opinion, these and similar questions should form the core of the debate and not the rather naif 'no' to a surge in defense spending.

El objetivo no es ningún secreto: deshacerse de Zelenski. Y la estrategia está completamente a la vista. Trump y Putin han empezado las negociaciones no sólo para finalizar la guerra, sino para repartirse Ucrania, el territorio, sus materias primas, su futuro y debilitar a Europa.

10 years ago today, Syriza won the Greek elections, opening a period of hope for many Europeans. It was clear then, as it is today, that austerity and reducing social and workers' rights cannot be the answer to financial crises and lack economic growth.
