Why was the adoption of the law postponed until autumn?

Criticism from within the party's own ranks was crucial, Válasz Online suspects. The fact that even parts of the Fidesz government opposed Orbán's draft is unusual.
Hungary: Law against NGOs off the table for now
The Hungarian ruling party Fidesz has postponed the adoption of its transparency law, which had been planned for this week, until after the summer break.

The ‘Trump–Putin deal’ again places Ukrainians in a subaltern role. The leaked contract with its fantasy $500 billion ‘payback’ has been compared to Versailles, but the US betrayal recalls nothing so much as Molotov–Ribbentrop. By Mykola Riabchuk

The conflict of #Israel and #Palestine is so chrged, many shy always from it. A deeply engrained prejudice against Muslims is one important factor. Today we talk just that on #StandardTime with @Eurozine colleagues and Amani Abu Zahra:

A sign of relief swept across Europe as the ceasefire between #Israel and #Hamas was announced. Not least because we avoid discussing this conflict at any price. But why?
In short, the Christian part of Europe has anti-Semitism and anti-Muslim Racism in it's very DNA.

Why is it so hard to talk meaningfully about Palestine and Israel?

Well, anti-Semitism and anti-Mulsim racism form a double helix across Western history. In this episode we look into the older strand with prof. Helga Embacher, Liddia-Zessin Jurek and Johann Kneihs. youtu.be/cJJMPnSIfDw?...

My beloved colleague Märta Bone has been researching rare earth mining and other, problematic "green investments" for a while. He's a quick look by her into how Europe is faring in this economic scramble: www.eurozine.com/a-dead-end-s...
A dead-end scramble?
While China moves into its fifth decade of extracting rare earths and raw materials, Europe remains stuck between nationalistic industry priorities and democratic principles.

Israel engaged the rest of the world, especially the United States, but also developed a kind of claustrophobia as a country under siege and with a siege mentality. Fear of being changed, particularly by the United States, was part of that ambivalence.

I watched #Wicked yesterday. I cried so hard I still have a headache. Although the film is not really my cup of tea, Cynthia Erivo's acting just broke me, even though she has very few lines for a lead, yet her face that speaks volumes. I'd love a musical edit of just her.

As I anticipated, Orbán and Fico have blocked EU sanctions against Georgian government officials.

But let’s be honest — had Orbán not existed, the EU political class would have had to invent him. 1/2
