Dear Anne @moutet, as my go-to person to understand French politics, what is your president really saying here? Is it as anti-CEE as it seems?

RT @visegrad24: Another scandalous statement on Ukraine by Macron.

He basically calls Central Eastern European nations such as Czechia, the Baltic states and Poland for “most war-mongering countries that risk of extending the conflict.”

He says Brussels can’t…

Great thread. But these interviewsare pretty much of a disaster if you want to show that German industry is not the crass, valueless mercantile behemoth in the we'll-do-anything-for-money tradition of IG Farben and Krupp it is seen to be. Niemals wieder indeed.

This will have interesting consequences for Russian armor and ammo logistics in Ukraine.
RT @TengstromAnders: Russian railways are grinding to a halt - why?

Because they can't replace worn out bearings on their train carriers.

Why can't they do that?

Because Swedish SKF closed their factory in Tver (RU) in mars and the output produced was for the RU railways.

Another absolutely must read explainer thread from @kamilkazani
RT @kamilkazani: Now we associate Gorbachev with Perestroika, which in its turn is interpreted as nice Gorbachev being nice. In reality, in the beginning of his rule Gorbachev continued Andropov's Neo-Stalinist policies. But then the oil price dropped and didn't bounce back. Hence, Perestroika🧵

RT @_JakubJanda: Prague demonstration of 70 000:

Led by far right, anti vax and pro-Kremlin fringe forces managed to use fears of high energy prices to call for defacto capitulation to Russia.

While it shows social fears among wider classes, it does not change Czech govt policy on Ukraine.

Thread from @PhillipsPOBrien:
RT @PhillipsPOBrien: Weekend Update, Battle of the Bridges, week 2 or week 8 (doesnt really matter). Ukrainian strategy now seems confirmed, the Russians have behaved as expected, and its a question now of logistics and attrition.

At this point so much spaghetti has been thrown at the wall they had to empty out three supermarkets around Mar-A-Lago.
