The only agreement they reached was to hold a debate for canddiates.https://www.cna.com.tw/news/aipl/202310140144.aspx

RT by @bueti: Die globale Temperatur im vergangenen Monat war einfach nur krass. Der bisherige Rekord aus 2020 wurde um volle 0,5 °C übertroffen! Ein nie gesehener Sprung nach oben.
In den Jahreswerten zeigt sich sogar eine Beschleunigung der Erwärmung (vgl. linearen und nicht-linearen Trend).

RT by @bueti: The "gobsmackingly bananas" part of these data is this:
the previous September record from 2020 was beaten by a whopping 0.49°C.
The next largest margins by which a previous September record was topped:
0.09°C
0.07°C
0.06°C.
Mostly it happens in increments of 0.01 or 0.02°C.

This is really such an absurd mixture of short-sightedness, loss of dignity and petty vindictiveness on the part of EU Commission and EEAS, that it is hard to believe! Hey, @vonderleyen and @JosepBorrellF, what are your services doing? Can you, please, live up to your duties?!

China's July total social finance data is absolutely concerning. RMB bank loans to the real economy increased by a meager RMB 36.4bn, lowest since 2006. It is true that the July figure is usually small but this is out of control.

Whatever nonsense @ExtSpoxEU utters, he is his master's voice, and @JosepBorrellF should be held accountable by the European Parliament for a completely failing, greatly biased and unjust policy: the authoritarian Serbian government he cuddles, and Kosovo he lambasts &amp; sanctions.

Admirim: EU spokesperson says Kosovo showed "inability to behave in a European manner" despite 🇽🇰 multiple steps to de-escalate, unlike 🇷🇸.
When pressed by a journalist, he refuses to say the same about 🇷🇸.
He dismisses the letter by top 🇺🇸&amp;🇪🇺 politicians against the appeasement of 🇷🇸.
