Partei liider, kes sai valimistel enim hääli, kelle erakond sai kohti juurde ja jäi alla vaid kolme koha võrra astub tagasi.
Eestis aga poevad kaotajad nahast välja, et väita et nad midagi valesti ei teinud. #poliitilinekultuur

.@NathalieTocci has written one of the best articles on the issues Europe faces regarding Ukraine and Russia that I have read in a very long time.

As always, @NathalieTocci is brilliant:
"Russia has started digging a hole, and the more it comes to realise it is in one, the deeper it will continue to dig."

Um, you'd think that after 32 years you could catch up with reality?
I was already in grad school at the University of Pennsylvania in 1978
I do not recall @nytimes articles back then on the tourist joys of visiting the "former Nazi Reich of Germany".

Yes, let's base our security policy decisions on Putin's PR spin.
The stupidity of some is astounding.
"Many are nervous about how that could help Russian president Vladimir Putin’s tactic to depict the war as a conflict between Moscow and Nato." https://www.ft.com/content/6172067c-00d3-4fb9-992e-bcb4264ea8c2

Great piece by @PesuMatti, et al. I would argue,
though, it does much more: it shifts the entire geopolitical center of gravity of European security, almost as much as 1989-91.
RT @PesuMatti: Finland joins NATO today. What will change? I’ll list 4 key transformations in this small thread.
1. Finland becomes a genuine collective defence actor. It must learn to view its efforts and objectives in terms of the Alliance’s collective needs as well.

Tallinn on täna 4x suurem kui ta oli kui praegused liinid ehitati 90 aastat tagasi. Ainus uus liin on praegu ehitamisel soome turiste teenindav jupp.
Mida Tallinn vajab on trammiliinid nagu teistes samasuurusega linnades -- korralikud liinid Nõmme, Tabasalu ja Lasnamäe otstesse
