Trump ist jetzt 150 Prozent in Overdrive. Er braucht Spektakel, um von seinen innenpolitischen Problemen abzulenken. Powell, Venezuela, Iran, Grönland - all dieses muss in diesem Licht gesehen werden.

Vielleicht.
Vielleicht aber auch nicht.
Aber was ist der Mehrwert solcher Old School-Transatlantiker-Traktate, die nur zum Chillen verleiten?
Dieser Ennui und So War es Schon Immer-Bias bringen uns nicht weiter.

Es ist aktuell ausgeschlossen, dass US-Konzerne venezolanisches Öl zu weltmarktfähigen Preisen fördern können. Ob die nötigen Investitionen für eine zukünftige Förderung sich lohnen, ist mehr als fraglich.
Die USA machen Öl-Imperialismus, ohne dass Öl dabei rumkommt.
That’s Trump in a nutshell.

Young Europeans will make Europe more united!
For them, a European Army is more attractive than national armies or even NATO.
That is what today’s politicians need to have in mind!

Like, just yesterday I heard an AFD politician on the radio saying basically “I don’t understand why Germany should be involved with a Ukraine force, we should be looking to the *strong* Europeans, like the UK and France.”
Makes you wonder whether they know the actual numbers in Berlin.

It's wild that the PM of a NATO member feels compelled to put out a statement like this vis-à-vis the US government.

Not for the first time, where other European leaders wring their hands over Trump, Spain’s Sánchez draws a line. A stance that is only looking more sensible (more *realistic*) as time goes on.
Pedro Sánchez afirma que España no reconoció al régimen de Maduro, “pero tampoco reconocerá una intervención que viola el derecho internacional”
Sánchez asegura que España no reconocerá “una intervención que viola el derecho internacional”
El Gobierno llama a la “desescalada” en Venezuela tras el ataque de EE UU y se ofrece a mediar; y Feijóo pone el foco en la “férrea dictadura” de Maduro

Es hat sich für Europa wenig geändert heute. Der Fokus sollte endlich auf einem verläßlichen Zeitplan für die Übernahme kritischer Fähigkeiten zur Verteidigung Europas liegen, die heute durch die USA bereitgestellt werden.

It should be now patently clear to everyone that Mark Rutte style daddy management by submission that Europeans have adopted (with good reasons) at best can buy European NATO members some time. Vance & allies will be hard at work on a force posture review. So where is our focus?

The geopolitical importance of the US siege of Venezuela happening in synchronicity with China’s “exercises” around Taiwan: we’re entering the era post international law, and the West is losing the war of narratives. China has a better (though false) story about Taiwan than the US about Venezuela.

Offenbar ist es nötig, dass Ukraine und Europäer in der Initiative bleiben und sich in einer Gratwanderung aus lobenden Worten und inhaltlichem Widerstand dauernd mit Trump und seinen Leuten auseinandersetzen, weil die intuitiv sonst immer wieder Putin in die Arme laufen.

Brigitte Bardot has been fined for racism multiple times, she called muslim immigrants "filthy", she openly supported the far right like few other celebrities in Europe. She was not "controversial," she was a hateful homophobe, racist and bigot.

It seems to have become a regular holiday feature in the Swedish newspaper SvD to publish long and dreamy articles about a Nordic union (they even got a name for it: Norden).
Among the nice things we could have they list Jens Stoltenberg as a federal chancellor

2028-scenariot: Nordisk stat inväntar rysk attack
Allt fler talar om ett enat Norden. Men hur skulle en nordisk förbundsstat se ut? Monarki eller republik? Stormakt eller lilleputt? SvD utforskar en gammal tankelek som tycks bli allt mer verklig.

Die ganze Nacht lang wird Kyjiw von Russland brutal von allem möglichen Raketen und Drohnen angegriffen. Der Beschuss geht auch jetzt weiter. Niedrig fliegende Drohnen sorgen zudem für viel Zerstörung in mehreren Stadtteilen. Die ohnehin schwere Strom- und Heizungslage wird vor Neujahr nicht besser.

This will no doubt inspire fury in some quarters, at the v thought of talking to Putin, but if Europe doesn't, then it is handing all the initiative to Trump. My take for the @thespectator1828.bsky.social blog

There is a quietly emerging sentiment in Europe that simply shunning Putin as a bad man is simply not working.
