Fascinated by the wheels of politics, I have a wonderful partner, adore my friends and love life. World traveler and proud Belgian!!!
NO NASTINESS, yet rather "annoyed" with US politics.
Chancellor Merz said that the US’s claim to global leadership had been “squandered.”

“The international order based on rights and rules is currently being destroyed,” he said.“This order, as flawed as it has been even in its heyday, no longer exists in that form.”

This is really special.

Jean is Armenian and was born in Lebanon. After the war, the family lost everything. They found refuge in Belgium, and now he has given us the most beautiful singing performance.

Listen and let emotions get the better of you...

Listen and enjoy...

Rubio and the German Chancellor Merz say that the old world order ‘no longer exists.’

That is a strong exaggeration!

The old world is on pause and will stay on pause if Trump doubles down on his love for causing chaos, and if the next President does not restore a total democracy in the USA!

Unfortunately, it's true. In Europe, we look at America and see frightening soviet tendencies.

Even more disconcerting is the fact that your leader is an idiot. If he were smart, at least there would be a chance he would see the light.

Unfortunately, he is only able to see glory and $ signs.

Whenever we, in the European Union, hear or see the American President Trump lie, grift, manipulate, or worse, we have this unfortunate feeling of disgust creeping up on us.

In little over a year, this man has ruined the stellar reputation of a great nation.

I call it "dwindling respect"...

"You can always count on Americans to do the right thing, after they've tried everything else."

Trump posts an image of the former President and First Lady, which not only shows incredibly questionable taste but pure and blatant racism, and the vile "thing" is taken down?
No apologies? No dismissal?

And Americans wonder why we in the EU are processing how loathsome the US has become?

The Epstein files have now had a Lord and a Prince as their casualties in the United Kingdom.

In the US, no one...

Isn't this ironic and utterly disgusting at the same time?

Just asking...for a friend...

I was deeply touched by this report from Deutsche Welt about American Jews reclaiming their German citizenship.

A must-see.

The Roman Empire collapsed over roughly 200–250 years.

The United States of America only needed 1 year.

Think about it...

There is only so much crap one can take from one's friends.

The USA, through the actions, threats, and lies of its President, has crossed that line.

The European Union has had enough of all that bullying and has now reacted as it should.

Trump now threatens to impose a 100% tariff on goods imported from Canada if the country goes ahead with its trade deal with China.

If he does, the US will suffer the economic consequences.

Trump does not know his tariffs from his fat ass and cannot set foreign nations' trade policies!

This is a picture that the White House posted on its website.

What these idiots do not know is that THERE ARE NO PINGUINS IN GREENLAND!

Provocative idiots. That's what they are!

Watching Trump and his little people, I am so happy that I am not an American. I would dig a hole and try to hibernate for three years, and then emerge... maybe.

Trump does what most incompetent narcissists do, and he will not be able to stop because that's what he's been doing all of his life.

Incredibly, most people let him.

Europe did not...

Quoting philosopher Antonio Gramsci, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium, Bart De Wever noted:

"If the old is dying and the new is not yet born, you live in a time of monsters."

He added that it is up to Trump to decide if he wants to be one.
