@voxpot.bsky.social je vybudovaný "zespodu" bez vlivu velkých ekonomických skupin a zároveň dělá žurnalistiku na mnohem vyšší úrovni než mnoho jiných médií s větším rozpočtem.

Rád jsem jsem přispěl do jejich kampaně, aby mohli zachovat kvalitu i nezávislost. voxpot.cz

The @financialtimes.com Editorial Board:

"...the US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity."

Trump se snaží zastavit nástup Číny. To ale nejde, upozorňuje expert - Seznam Zprávy

Celní tažení Donalda Trumpa se po několika jeho náhlých manévrech smrsklo hlavně na tarifní střet mezi Spojenými státy a Čínou. Peking neuhýbá a dává najevo své odhodlání vytrvat. Jakou strategii Čína...
