I don’t know what will happen with Le Pen’s trial but if she is found guilty and banned from standing for elections, it won’t be a denial of democracy, it will be a reinforcement of the rule of law. The US shows what happens when you don’t follow through on punishments for corruption.

DON'T THINK OF AN ELEPHANT: Europæiske ledere går i bedste mening skiftevis i rette med trumps udtalelser om Zelenskyj: "Han er ikke diktator." Dermed bidrager de uutilsigtet til at gentage budskabet. De skulle snarere sige: "trump spreder desinformation." Man kan ikke ikke-tænke på en elefant.

Since WWII, Washington has been the most important capital for European security. That has now come to an end.
For both the US and Europe, the end of transatlantic unity is a major security policy defeat. For Russia and President Putin it is a huge victory.

ANALYSE: Trump tror, at den vigtigste hovedstad i Europa er Washington. Det er det ikke længere
Netop som Europa har mest brug for USA, har Donald Trump vendt ryggen til og forladt partnerskabet og afsluttet æraen, hvor den vigtigste sikkerhedspolitiske hovedstad i Europa var Washington.

Hi all,
I've compiled some thoughts in a Substack post that I just sent out.
More than anything, this episode highlights that Europe's main challenge is not a lack of military capability but a failure of mindset.
