First batch of SAFE loans approved by the Council, plus the agreement with Canada (as the so far only third country 🧐🇬🇧) for SAFE participation.

Also note the greenlight for the loan to Hungary still not on the soon to be adopted list:
The Council has greenlit defence funding under the Security Action for Europe (SAFE) instrument for eight EU member states.

Funding for another eight counties is expected to be greenlit on 17 February.

New in PN: Trump tries and fails to extort Canada

"The American president is a toothless old tiger, roaring on social media as his real power slips away. He can still extort a secondhand Nobel Prize from a dissident leader, but he’s not taking the Stanley Cup."
