The PRC regime is pushing so hard to talk to everybody in Brussels they can get hold of, that you could suspect they have something to make up for. Well, yes, they shot themselves in the foot by badly mishandling European affairs over the last two years. But without changing ...

RT @RepBowman: Nearly 1 million pounds of vinyl chloride were on this train. Now, the EPA has confirmed it's entered the Ohio River basin which is home to 25 million people.

RT @gosaliya_ashik: Have you seen a flag of any other country hoisted on the site of rescue in #Turkiye & #Syria?

Only China does that.

In fact, China delayed rescue operations by Hong Kong by almost 10 hours in order to hoist the flag.

Interesting thread! #Russia
RT @ChrisO_wiki: 1/ Only 10% of Russians are firm ideological supporters of the war in Ukraine, according to a new political analysis. While more than half of Russians support Putin, their support is conditional and likely to fall as Russia's economy weakens amidst the continuing fighting. ⬇️

RT @EberleSebastian: Man muss es so hart sagen: Das Wahlergebnis ist für die SPD ein historisches Desaster. Dass es die Sozialdemokraten nicht in einem einzigen Wahlkreis geschafft haben, stärkste Partei zu werden, hat es noch nie gegeben. Selbst zu Zeiten von Diepgen und von Weizsäcker nicht.
