Trump lives in his own bubble - Tenzer #Ukraine

Replay de la discussion d'hier sur @france24.com animée par @paulinepaccard.bsky.social entre Alla Lazareva, Iryna Dmytrychyn & moi - et @gullivercragg.bsky.social depuis Kyiv. Des voix unies pour contrer un défaitisme irrationnel. #3eanniversaire #UkraineWillWin www.france24.com/fr/%C3%A9mis...

Un joyeux anniversaire à l'infatigable et si courageux défenseur de nos libertés. Immense respect et gratitude @nicolastenzer.bsky.social

Superbe article de @nicolastenzer.bsky.social, à lire absolument ! 👇 tenzerstrategics.substack.com/p/europe-mus...

Ne pas donner corps au discours défaitiste face au nouvel axe Washington-Moscou❗ #StandWithUkraine

Defeatism is irrational

#Europe Must Pursue a Strategy of #RussianDefeat Truth of War, War for Truth by @nicolastenzer.bsky.social tenzerstrategics.substack.com/p/europe-mus...

In this 132nd long-read on my strategy blog, I show why Europe must, while Trump seeks to impose an ignominious agreement on Ukraine, not get drawn into these dangerous discussions and pursue a strategy of Russian defeat. Defeatism is irrational today. tenzerstrategics.substack.com/p/europe-mus...

Le "must" read du moment, par @nicolastenzer.bsky.social. tenzerstrategics.substack.com/p/europe-mus... L'🇪🇺 + 🇬🇧 ont des atouts : en 2025, leur budget militaire représente encore plus du double de celui de la 🇷🇺 (126 Mds EUR en 2025). ➡️ Il est possible d'infliger une défaite militaire à la 🇷🇺 .

Putin: “Nuestra estrategia de fortalecimiento y desarrollo de las fuerzas armadas no ha cambiado”. Los servicios de inteligencia europeos: los planes de ataque de Rusia van más allá de Ucrania. Cualquier acuerdo de paz falsificado y levantamiento de las sanciones aumentaría la amenaza rusa.

Un plaisir de rencontrer @nicolastenzer.bsky.social #Ukraine !

Putin: “Our strategy of strengthening and developing the armed forces remains unchanged”. What Europe's intelligence services said: russia's plans of attack go beyond Ukraine. Any (T)trumped-up peace deal and lifting of sanctions would increase the russian threat. www.ouest-france.fr/europe/russi...

We Europeans must be careful not to get caught up in Trump's storyline and process. We must remain in control of the agenda—which means rejecting his. Let's not repeat his tale of “peace talks,” because that's already giving in to Putin. Let's have instead a narrative of victory—Ukraine's and ours.

Demonstration in London today, ending right in front of FSB offices (aka an embassy). Several MPs spoke at the start or end of event. Russia is a terrorist state! @drjademcglynn.bsky.social @phillipspobrien.bsky.social @nicolastenzer.bsky.social @xtytelman.bsky.social @bctallis.bsky.social

Passer en économie de guerre, juste propos de Laurent Sagalovitsch. "Cela demandera des sacrifices. Des contraintes. Des renoncements. Des privations. Des remises en question. Des arbitrages. Ils susciteront colères et réprobations. Mais le cap doit être maintenu." www.slate.fr/monde/blog-s...

The full defeat of russia must remain, whatever it takes, our war aim, for the sake of humanity, international law, peace, and our own security. This is the only realistic objective given the immensity of russian crimes. It is feasible and nothing but a question of will—and intelligence. Period.

Translated to English: ‘"Europe will have to replace the United States in terms of military power. If I were the head of a European state, I would declare that we were moving to a war economy immediately." @nicolastenzer.bsky.social in #CàVous”

Un must Watch, avec @nicolastenzer.bsky.social et @xtytelman.bsky.social Merci pour votre parole vraie #Ukraine #Zelensky #Russie #Poutine #Trump #USA

Manifestation pour l’Ukraine ce dimanche à 14h place de la république et discours à 16h place de la Bastille. Venez nombreux ! #UEF_France @nicolastenzer.bsky.social @cyrilleamoursky.bsky.social @goyamichel.bsky.social @xtytelman.bsky.social @cedricmas.bsky.social @guillaumeancel.bsky.social

I suspect many European politicans follow Nicholas Tenzer, but will they have the courage & wherewithal to act? Europe absolutely must act now, not just fighting with words, but using all resources available to defend itself from fascism. @nicolastenzer.bsky.social substack.com/@tenzerstrat...

« Les #Etats - #Unis #US #USA #ne #sont #plus #nos #alliés, c’est un #changement dramatique dans les #relations et l’ #ordre #mondial », tranche d’emblée Nicolas Tenzer, #spécialiste des #questions #stratégiques et #internationales et #enseignant à #Sciences #Po. www.20minutes.fr/monde/ukrain...

Sur @francetv.bsky.social Dans #Cavous M. @nicolastenzer.bsky.social qui explique parfaitement que la situation est en train de devenir critique! #Trump et la désinformation ( ce n'est pas peu dire!) 👇👇

"Il va falloir que l’Europe remplace les États-Unis en termes de puissance militaire. Si j’étais chef d’un État européen, je déclarerais que nous passions en économie de guerre immédiatement." @nicolastenzer.bsky.social dans #CàVous

L'INALCO organise une série de conférences sur le conflit en Ukraine pour ceux que ça intéresse. Pas d'inscription Je vais essayer d’assister à celles de 15h30 (avec @nicolastenzer.bsky.social) et 18h avec le général Yakovleff. Je vais étudier le reste du temps. 😓 www.inalco.fr/evenements/t...

What now for the Europe-US relationship? 1/ Recommend yet again @nicolastenzer.bsky.social on his latest Substack on *Reassessing transatlanticism* "the most frequent tendency is to underestimate the scale of the phenomena and to refuse an overly radical analysis" substack.com/home/post/p-...

This is a very good read. We need to all adjust to the brutal reality of the new world which we now inhabit - fast.

Painful to read, having grown up with the idea that the USA was protecting the world. But truth is yes, they might be in the process of becoming an enemy of the western world, aligning with dictatorships and their agenda. Europe and its population need to accept this reality and stand up.

"We are no longer even in a traditionally isolationist situation where the main ally would withdraw, leaving the others helpless, but in a world where the ally potentially becomes an enemy."

Mon entretien ce matin dans le journal de 8 heures de @france24.com avant la réunion de cet après-midi à Paris, sur ses enjeux, à proprement parler historiques, pour l'avenir de l'Europe et de la liberté. Des décisions exceptionnelles devront être prises urgemment. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG2-...

Very gloomy, but recommended read! #Atlanticism

Extremly good piece with a lot of thoughts about makes us worry in this times : #Europeans and #Americans Bottom line: "Let us not sink into defeatism: there is still time to refute the most pessimistic prophecies about the end of European history- and that of freedom." @nicolastenzer.bsky.social

Toujours essentiel billet de @nicolastenzer.bsky.social . Très argumenté. Quel extrait choisir ? Par où commencer ? Peut-être par ici ⤵️ : origin of the errors of assessment.

French intellectual Nicholas Tenzer raises important questions, including what will happen to our U.S.-European alliance in the face of a U.S.-Russian coalition; and must Europe become a war economy to protect itself? open.substack.com/pub/tenzerst...

We are. And it should not surprise anyone. We have been living on borrowed time. Our priority should be to rapidly shore up our defenses to make up for lost time. That includes EU troops in #Ukraine.

A must read

Guerre en #Ukraine : l' #Europe se met en #ordredebataille à Paris ( itw de Nicolas Tenzer, politologue) www.france24.com/fr/vid%C3%A9... @nicolastenzer.bsky.social Avec la désolidarisation des Etats-Unis et la capitulation de Trump devant Poutine, nous devons entrer en économie de guerre

I believe we are indeed at a decisive turning point who signifies the end of the transatlantic relationship concerning security, compelling Europe to swiftly emancipate itself & fully assume its responsibilities and self-defence. It should also seek to engage with Canada and Norway in this regard !

A must read. As always. 👀
