Well done, thanks for being there @rglucks1, in the name of all Europeans.
RT @rglucks1: 1/7 Retour à Kyiv, jour de l’Indépendance, sur cette place de Maidan où tout a commencé avec la révolution de 2014.
Je n’oublierai jamais ces jeunes Ukrainiens morts ici le drapeau européen dans les mains. Leur Histoire est la nôtre. La guerre qui leur est menée nous vise tous

Don´t miss the long read in the WaPo about the battle for Kyiv, with a lot of inside testimonies from Ukraine´s government and army. Reminds us once more of the amazing courage of the Ukrainian people.

Brillante Macron capturando nuestro momento histórico como el momento del fin de la abundancia (materias primas, cadenas de valor); del fin de las evidencias; del fin de la imprudencia.
RT @LCI: 🔴🗣️ "Nous vivons la fin de ce qui pouvait apparaître comme une abondance. C'est aussi la fin des évidences. Et c'est aussi la fin - pour qui en avait - d'une forme d'insouciance" : @EmmanuelMacron en direct sur LCI.
Good morning and happy independence day to Ukrainians everywhere. My best wishes in these brutal times for all. I hope one year from now we will celebrate that your country is whole and free.
🇺🇦Слава Україні!

The alternative to the Constitution is a return to chaos to the state of nature. America needs to wake up to this risk.
RT @khalafroula: Martin Wolf: In 27BC, the Roman republic transformed into the military dictatorship we call the Roman empire. It is not impossible that a similar transformation is under way in the US. https://www.ft.com/content/711fe67c-e557-4722-9152-635ec27f0993#comments-anchor
A veces desde fuera parece que EEUU tiene problemas y los tiene. Pero mirad el gráfico del mercado de valores comparado con el resto del mundo. Y como dice @TheStalwart ,el gas, y el petróleo y materias primas protegen a EEUU de la crisis actual....todo bien, sí evitan a Trump.

Este hilo, sobre el papeleo, el formalismo vacío y la burocracia ridícula e inútil de la universidad española comparada con la danesa.
Pasa lo mismo con la Aneca: se sustituye la sustancia, por el papeleo: cursos, cursillos y cursetes, méritos de "gestión".... Un cáncer.

RT @berlin_bridge: German corruption goes far beyond NS2. It’s a serious long term threat to European security & democracy. If you don’t know you need to know — start with this overview by @GresselGustav & @majda_ruge. Over a year old but relevant as ever

The corruption of Germany relationship's with Russia and Gazprom stinks to the high heavens. After years lecturing all European countries on corruption, it is about time Germany did something about dirty Russian money to Schröder, Manuela Schwesig and the rest of the gang.

RT @minna_alander: Since there’s still some disbelief about this outside of Germany: yes, an “environmental foundation” founded by Minister President of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Manuela Schwesig (SPD), received €192 million from Gazprom via their subsidiary NordStream 2 AG, in Feb-Nov 2021
What PM Marin had to put up with, the gossip, the accusations, the drug test, is completely unacceptable. She also has the right to a private life.
RT @POLITICOEurope: BREAKING: Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin has tested negative in a drug test she took after leaked videos showed her having fun with friends.
Full story to follow.
Appalling. A politician sets up a "foundation" to get €192 million donation from Gazprom/Nordstream- but rather than being a huge scandal, gets reelected.
The German SPD is rotten to its core. The more we learn about its relationship with Russian Gas, the dirtier it seems.

RT @yevusenko: @lugaricano @GeorgZachmann Ukrainians and the entire CEE warned you all many-many years ago, since the start of ns2 at least. Gas blackmail is known to us since 1990s.
The evidence of Russia's nefarious intentions has been there for all to see for many months-@GeorgZachmann told us a year ago. EU Governments chose to close their eyes to this reality, rather than send the unambiguous message to Russia that could have stopped the coming tragedy.
RT @ben_moll: Already a year ago @GeorgZachmann was ringing the alarm bells about Russia weaponizing gas and keeping EU gas storages purposely low.
