A reminder that Trump’s view of the invincibility of Russia isn't borne out by evidence. His Director of National Intelligence could probably tell him that, if she weren't spouting Russian anti-Ukrainian propaganda herself.

Exactly. By far the fastest way to end the war would have been to increase the support for Ukraine so Russia would stop attacking.

This is the tragedy. Trump was dealt a great hand to deliver a massive blow to Russia.

Important thread on what a European defense structure could look like! #dkpol #eupol

Is this how Poland felt during WW2?

Europe must act with urgency and strengthen its defences! Yesterday's proposal by von der Leyen to #ReArm Europe was an important step, but we need to go further. Leaders must take urgent decisions tomorrow!

KÆMPE TAK! 2,4 mill. kr til komitéens arbejde i weekenden og det strømmer stadigvæk ind. Tre nye millioner røg afsted i går! Tak, Danmark! #SlavaUkrayini www.bt.dk/politik/ukra...

Good thread! 👇

Investors dare to imagine a world beyond the dollar - If the EU could seize this moment and issue joint debt, it would tap in to a deep well of willing buyers keen to trim US exposure. on.ft.com/4iHtsH1 via @FT

This narrative must change. Trump has not paused military aid to Ukraine because of a bad meeting, but because of disagreement about the political substance. Trump wants Ukraine to surrender, and he thinks this step will do the job.

This, to me, feels like the fundamental question right now. Can we - now, not some time in the future - ensure deterrence and defence on the eastern flank AND sufficiently support Ukraine. Very practical question for right now.

My new, long reflection about 1989-1991, which we all know as “the collapse”. I argue that if we saw it as liberation, we would have better recognized the dangers of reversal and Russian revanche. We need the liberation lens even more today. www.eurozine.com/liberation-n...

This is the key point. The UK and Europe have to try to keep President Trump engaged diplomatically for as long as possible. But that needs to be about buying time to build security independence, not being in denial about the need for that independence.

I think what makes this moment feel so big and groundbreaking is that even those among us who have been talking about the need/danger of a Europe without the US for a long time, were usually in the mindset of a US disinterested in Europe. But not a US actively hostile to Europe& European interests.

70 years ago, the proudest boast was "Ich bin ein Berliner". Today the proudest boast is "I am a Ukrainian".

Vi tror på Europa.

Ukraine is not alone. Germany together with our European allies stands united alongside #Ukraine - and against the Russian aggression. Ukraine can build on unwavering support from Germany, Europe and beyond. Their defence of democracy & their quest for peace & security is ours.

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

I'm also wondering whether anyone who peddled the "Ukraine is just a US proxy used to weaken russia" narrative for years feels the need to backtrack and apologize today. Ukraine are fighting for their own sovereignty and they'll protect it from whoever threatens it

Hvis Affordable Energy Action Plan leverer bare halvdelen af det, Dan Jørgensen lover i et meget stærkt(!) interview i Børsen i dag, så kommer EU til at overhale dansk energipolitik indenom. Hvor er det dog befriende at EU rykker, når den danske regering står bomstille i energipolitikken #dkpol

This last point from @ehunterchristie.bsky.social is crucial, as it means a permanent decline in American presence and influence. The only ones who gain by this are the enemies of freedom and democracy, Russia, China, et. al.

This is bold and promising. #eupol

Merz with remarkable clarity: „Absolutely no illusions“ about Trump. Goal needs to be step by step independence from a US who „pretty much no longer cares about fate of 🇪🇺“. „Unclear whether we will still speak of NATO in present shape“ by time of June summit or we need to come up with 🇪🇺alternative.

During tonights debate after the German elections, Alice Weigel repeatedly said that AfD would continue to grow, if they were again kept out in the cold. Here's why I think she's wrong.

Dependency on Starlink casually weaponized by US administration. Conclusions for Europe and anyone else in orbit of former US-led alliance should be crystal clear. www.reuters.com/business/us-...

Russia always tries to reach an agreement which it necessarily breaks. It's a pattern, it breaks the promises that it makes because it knows that nobody is going to enforce the agreements, nobody is going to hold Russia accountable for breaking its promises and agreements. 1/6
