Inteligente movimiento de Calviño evitando "frentes" Norte-Sur y buscando posición común con Países Bajos sobre Reglas Fiscales:
1) Necesidad de inversión nueva europea y nacional
2) Regla de gasto sencilla, individualizada
3) Papel reforzado de"AIrefs" https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/binaries/rijksoverheid/documenten/kamerstukken/2022/04/04/joint-paper-eurogroup-es-nl/joint-paper-eurogroup-es-nl.pdf

RT @eduardosuarez: Cientos de miles de españoles protestamos contra la invasión de Irak en 2003. Muchos menos protestan contra la invasión de Ucrania en 2022. Al contrario que Irak, Ucrania es una democracia como la nuestra. Es tb una guerra contra nosotros. ¿Quiénes siguen indiferentes y por qué?
RT @lugaricano: Alemania detuvo el gaseoducto Nord Stream 2. Pero mantiene en funcionamiento su gemelo, Nord Stream 1, que continúa trayendo gas ruso a cambio de 170 millones de euros al día para Putin.

With much noise, Germany stopped Nord Stream 2. Nord Stream 1, an identical pipeline, continues to operate quietly at maximum capacity.
We visited the town on the Baltic where this hypocrisy takes place👇
RT @rglucks1: Besoin de décisions européennes fortes face aux massacres russes:
1/Extension des sanctions (dont exclusion de toutes les banques russes de SWIFT)
2/Fin des importations de gaz et de pétrole (800 millions/jour)
3/Augmentation des livraisons d’armes à la résistance ukrainienne
What are the politicians waiting for to follow the German public? Read these new polls
RT @Armin_Falk: Data from our representative survey shows: Two-thirds of the German population would be willing to pay higher prices for gas and heating if this were to increase pressure on the Russian government. 82% would lower their thermostat setting to save energy. (2/6)
We must end this hypocrisy: we cannot announce a 500M€ package to help Ukraine while we keep sending 1.000 M€ every day to Putin to buy weapons for his army. We have to stop buying Russian gas and oil now.
Here is my speech in Plenary today 👇

RT @HannoLustig: 👇this is not just about `showing solidarity' with Ukraine. this is an existential crisis for the EU. if the EU is not willing to do what it takes to defend the fundamental values of liberal democracies in Europe, then it has lost already.

Orban/Putin:
Europe is failing to protect its values internally (subsidizing emerging authoritarian regimes in Hungary and Poland) and externally (financing Putin`s war through energy).
This is a do or die moment for the EU. We either stand for our values or we are nothing

RT @JeremyCliffe: This by @panyiszabolcs is the definitive read on Germany's role. Like vis-à-vis Putin, a cocktail of commercial greed & naive fears about the consequences of isolating/alienating Orbán saw Berlin refuse to take action that might have changed his calculus.

RT @JeremyCliffe: 3/3 Orbán's victory was in no small part made in Brussels and Berlin. He has been allowed to harness for partisan ends the significant benefits of Hungary's EU membership and made to pay almost no serious price for trashing the EU's stated values.

.@KofmanMichael ´s analysis has been spot on till now. Here he argues Russia is structurally short of the necessary force to continue this war. See well argued thread.
RT @KofmanMichael: Follow up thread on Russian force availability and long-term prospects. The Russian military has taken significant casualties. After redeploying, and pulling additional units from standing formations, it may be tapped out of …

RT @ThomasPHI2: Germany’s Greek crisis.
11 years ago Greece faced a sovereign debt crisis because of:
- irresponsible fiscal policy
- bad luck
Today Germany faces a geopolitical crisis because of:
- irresponsible energy policy
- bad luck

RT @Tagliapietra_S: “Europe’s ongoing energy purchases send as much as $850 million each day into Russia’s coffers, according to Bruegel, an economics institute in Brussels. That money helps Russia to fund its war efforts and blunts the impact of sanctions.” https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/02/business/economy/russia-ukraine-sanctions-gas.html?referringSource=articleShare

The pretend "realists" who argued Ukraine should surrender, must read this thread
Mass murder was planned.
RT @sumlenny: - Russia planned to easy-take Kyiv within 3 days, following by capitulation of Ukraine;
- Russian army units were followed by thousands of riot police;
- Russian army purchased 45,000 body bags and brought mobile crematories;
- I am sure they planned mass executions for Ukraine.
