Foreign policy begins at home - and I would add: also boomerangs back home! Europe has not even begun to grapple with the consequences of an increasingly personalist-authoritarian US government for the fate of its democracies at home. #policyincoherence #democracy @dschwarzer.bsky.social

Verhindern die EU-Fiskalregeln eine Reform der Schuldenbremse in Deutschland?
