This is the problem in the US that has enabled the extreme polarisation and Trump’s power. Once a society does not agree on a shared reality and the principles of the system anymore, its game over. European countries must be really careful not to lose the shared reality too

The EU wasn’t formed to screw anyone. Quite the opposite. It was formed to maintain peace, to build respect among our nations, to create free and fair trade, and to strengthen our transatlantic friendship. As simple as that. 🇪🇺🇺🇸

Is science coming to your town? Kiel 🇩🇪 Brest 🇫🇷 and Split 🇭🇷 are the 3 cities hosting the new EU initiative #ScienceComesToTown.

Is this the same administration that sent the vice president to lecture European countries on the values of free speech?

Europe urgently needs its own plan of action concerning Ukraine and our security, or else other global players will decide about our future. Not necessarily in line with our own interest. This plan must be prepared now. There’s no time to lose.

German defence minister Boris Pistorius really spoke for all of Europe in his improvised remarks, responding to Vance’s speech and saying that it was unacceptable. If only he hadn’t been sidelined as a chancellor candidate, here we would have had a very competent new leader of the free world.

The audacity of Vance scolding Europe for having annulled Romanian election results due to Russian interference, representing a president who violently physically attacked the US system of governance and refused to acknowledge his defeat, still claiming the elections was stolen, is simply disgusting

Many Russian regions are offering huge sign-on bonuses to find more recruits for the war in Ukraine. It seems to be working: I analyzed regional budget spending for over 20 Russian regions and the data says that recruitment in Russia is accelerating. janiskluge.substack.com/p/money-talk...

Tear down this Brandmauer. US Vice President Vance goes to Munich to call for an end to the pledge of democratic parties in 🇩🇪to not cooperate with the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD). www.wsj.com/world/europe...

Trump is a One-Dimensional Negotiator I'm going to get a little wonky and write about Donald Trump and negotiations. For those who don't know, I'm an adjunct professor at Indiana University - Robert H. McKinney School of Law and I teach negotiations. Okay, here goes.

Deleted after 20 minutes but this is the mindset. It’s what is said in private among themselves. This is how they think about the rest of the world. No one is considered an ally. There will be no discussion.

The Spanish say they are serious about this proposal - three pillars - more transparency on algorithm and user identification (not necessarily public, nickname, alias etc but connected to real ID) will be pitched during the March EUCO summit.
