Können bitte alle vernünftigen Menschen aufhören, Russland als „Großmacht“ oder „Great Power“ zu bezeichnen? Russland ist ein technologisch, gesellschaftlich und infrastrukturell rückständiger Petrostaat mit einem Bruttoinlandsprodukt wie Italien. Aber mit Atomwaffen.

Wer hätte das gedacht. Die Ukrainer sind gezwungen mitzuspielen, weil sie die USA bei Laune halten müssen - weil die Europäer die potentielle Lücke nicht füllen könnten oder wollten. Derweil geht der Krieg weiter wie gehabt (mittlerweile aber mit Advantage Ukraine).

Darf ich das Diplomatische mal ganz ausschalten? Das war nämlich leider wieder eine absolute Scheißnacht in Kyjiw.

Russians targeted energy infrastructure of #Kyiv and Kyiv region.

One person was killed and at least four others injured.

In Kyiv, nearly 6,000 homes are once again without heating following damage to critical infrastructure, the mayor reported.

Keep saying it.

Trump isn't just in the Epstein files, he is the Epstein files.

The DOJ is spending millions and millions and dollars to cover it up.

Once and for all: the ideological escalation between Russia and the West began with justified criticism of homophobia in Russia. The “Gayropa” campaign was central to the Russian regime and is often overlooked by so-called geopolitical observers, especially Russia apologists.

Wenn ich durch die kalten Berliner Straßen laufe, kreisen meine Gedanken unentwegt um die Menschen in Kyjiw, die nicht einfach in eine warme Wohnung zurückkehren können. Wir haben mit unserer halbherzigen Unterstützung der Ukraine zu all dem beigetragen. Der Westen hätte es verhindernn können.

Am zweitletzten Tag des dritten Kriegsjahres platzt Zelensky endlich der Kragen.

❗️Zelensky: We should not accept the idea that Europe is merely a salad of small and medium-sized powers, seasoned with enemies of Europe.When we are united, we are truly invincible. Europe can — and must — be a global force.

In case it's unclear: Trump's Board of Peace is an autocratic takeover of the world. He'll wield "peace" like a cudgel--'that's a nice country you've got there, I'd hate to see something happen to it.' Any country that signs has pledged its fealty to a madman crime boss.

Trump: "Based upon a very productive meeting I had with Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region. This solution, if consummated, will be a great one... Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs"

La silueta de una mano pintada en negativo en la pared de una cueva en Indonesia tiene al menos 67.800 años de antigüedad, más que ninguna otra pintura rupestre hallada. Esto cuestiona la visión clásica de que el arte rupestre explota en Europa hace unos 40.000 años
Hallada en Indonesia la pintura rupestre más antigua de la humanidad
El nuevo descubrimiento, de 67.000 años de antigüedad, confirma que el arte no surgió de la nada en Europa y apunta a un origen previo en Asia y Oceanía

Q: You recognize the threat of Russia, nevertheless Donald Trump has nominated Putin as a member of the Board of Peace for Gaza. Any reaction?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not dug into the details of that. It's not within our purview. I'm not the one to answer the details on that.

At this point, it's collaboration.
it's bizarre to see both CNN and CNBC run with chyrons reporting that Trump said he won't "use force" to take Greenland, when the comments in question were clearly a threat to take Greenland by force. How naive are we at this point?

Attn news commentators: Trump saying he could use force to obtain Greenland but won’t is not Trump saying he won’t use force to obtain Greenland. It is Trump using force as a threat to obtain Greenland. That is why he mentions it.
