"Vassal" talk is a bit much, but those Starmer (and other EU leaders tbf) statements read like all these people still believe, if we can just hold our breath for three more years, this nightmare will be over and we'll be back to singing Atlantic Kumbaya

The Venezuela attack is about getting oil the same way that rape is about getting laid
The amount of “this is clearly about oil” posting across all platforms as story after story comes out where the oil industry is saying that the oil isn’t worth extracting is making me feel a little insane

New mass graves of unidentified people are appearing in Mariupol. A new wave of exhumations is linked to russia's ongoing housing construction — meant to accommodate illegal settlers brought into the city. Also, the mortality rate in Mariupol is high too.

EU citizens - especially those in Greenland - deserve a clear answer to the question of how EU leaders would react to attempts of the US to annex Greenland. Will there be a clear political and economic response? Or is it also going to be a "complex situation" to be "closely monitored"?

These freaks want territorial expansion and they know Trump will do everything he can to deliver.

This isn’t just a tweet from some random asshole either. This is Stephen Miller’s wife. Miller was in the room with Trump during the kidnapping of Maduro.

EEUU vulnera la carta de Naciones Unidas y la legalidad internacional. Nuestra firme condena a esta agresión imperialista a Venezuela.

El mundo es menos seguro y menos libre desde que Trump y la internacional del odio actúan impunemente.

Siempre estaremos con el derecho internacional y la paz.

Imperialism is first of all a rot on the soul; the inability to let your neighbour get on with their day to day life is akin to a poison mist or a heady ale, in that it clouds your judgment and tints everything you experience. And it starts in the soul too. You need to learn to leave people alone
no harm if you can't. i cant explain why something is bad without using tolkien early modern english

French Foreign Ministry: “The removal of Maduro from power and the violation of sovereignty constitute a serious act of aggression against the dignity of the Venezuelan people and their right to determine their own future.

If Mexico, who border the mad colossus that is the United States, can unequivocally condemn this as an action of aggression then the EU, sheltered by the Atlantic, can do the same and not offer this subservient drivel.
Following very closely the situation in Venezuela.

We stand by the people of Venezuela and support a peaceful and democratic transition.

Any solution must respect international law and the UN Charter.

As a staunch European I honestly find it humiliating, how EU leaders talk endlessly about strategic autonomy and bold defence and democratic values and then when the moment comes to actually stand up for those things, they always - always! - react like a kitten in a thunderstorm
I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela.

The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)

After this, the EU should absolutely proceed on the assumption that Trump meant what he said about Greenland. Nothing is off the table anymore.

rubio pretty much believes in a reverse domino theory for latin america and since he is effectively running foreign policy in the region i would expect him to see cuba as his next target
And I don’t want to sound conspiratorial, but if they feel like they can do this in Venezuela without any serious consequences, they’re absolutely going to try it in Cuba too.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Trump's regime has murdered people in the water. He has seized ships on the high seas. He has invaded a country and kidnapped their leader.
All bets are off with the United States.
Canada needs to build alliances with Europe and to be ready on the home front.

Today I need you to contact your national member of the legislature and tell them you want them to Boycott, Divest and Sanction the United States, Boycott the Olympics and World Cup, and then do the same for your highest local official. Politicians must be pushed.

100% seriously, European leaders and Commission officials should plan on the basis that the US might do this to them too, about Greenland, about tech regulation, about “Christian values”, about “free speech”, whatever.
Fucking hell.

Think the referance to US Law Enforcement here is quite telling as well: a huge extension of how far the US feels its laws reach.

Apparently its fine to now attack and kidnap a head of state because of 'US law'. Fucking hell.

If the Dems do not push for impeachment, the easiest case ever for impeachment (while the president is very unpopular mind you), then democracy, as we know it in the US, is forever lost, and the terrors that will follow may not be able to be stopped bloodlessly.

Also, remember this is connected to the political culture that sees European governments resisting the rise of the far right as illegitimate, too.

My question is who the fuck is next? If he’s now just doing this shit without any oversight at all, and with absolutely no one stopping him, why *wouldn’t* he invade Canada? Why *wouldn’t* he invade Greenland? Why *wouldn’t* he take back the Panama Canal?!
