EU should start the support by freezing all funds destined to Hungary and using them for Ukraine.
Other deals can be done directly between governments, bypassing the EU process.

Exactly.
The American population seems to be blissfully unaware how this fervent push of "Make America Great Again" is actually isolating the US globally.
The most indebted country in the World is pissing off their lenders, and Trump & admin are laughed at in the International press.
Prestige gone.

US support has dried up, yet they act like they own the negotiations, cutting both Europe and Ukraine off.
As the US share in the game is now reduced to only SELLING weapons to Europeans, it should be the European's choice if they want to BUY any help from America for the negotiations as well.

Nobody still has not explained what was "Great" before, yet they keep on saying "Make America Great AGAIN". Daily.
Apparently it is just as hard to explain as the meaning of "Woke", which they so much dislike. Daily as well.

The day when Americans can only enter other countries with a bullet-proof vaccination document are again a day closer.
I used to watch Fox with astonished disbelief when visiting the US.
Now I know what getting exposed to that junk for years can make to your brain.
Nobody benefits from this. Nobody.

With a different leadership, Hungary could be at the forefront of the EU in terms of cutting themselves off from the Russian energy.

The fact that European governments and companies still use the network formerly known as Twitter, after all the political instability that Musk has inflamed, is rather incomprehensible.
Even the US does not need it anymore, they have the soon-to-be-government-mandated channel called "Truth" Social.

Whatever their motivation, at least some of them must realize that it will come back to bite them in the end.
If by nothing else, by entirely fencing the US military industry complex out from future deals on one of the richest and easiest potential markets on this planet.

The fact that Republicans let all this happen is beyond belief.
Russia's economy is dwarfed by just Italy. And they are willing to sacrifice the whole of EU for that, so that the Trump, Kushner and Witkoff families could do some deals?
Is this why the US fought in the WWII?

Yeah. It is kind of scary how this kind of crap seems to be expanding all the time.
A couple of years ago I wrote a book about proofs against the Flat Earth, and how easy it is to use your own eyes to disprove those claims. Yet that group just keeps on growing.
The Internet is making us dumber.

Trump's unhinged second term is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Every country should take full advantage of the brain drain he is causing.
Trump says countries are "sending their worst" immigrants to the US.
So to balance the books, he's sending the absolute best to the rest of the world.

Seen from the other side of the pond, it would be great to have a competent, stress-proven president with no age issues in the US for a change.
He could have his twin brother as a VP, then swap jobs after two terms - true continuity for 16 years :)

The main adversaries India sees are Pakistan (US gear) and China (their own products). Based on the "successes" in Ukraine, the Russian hardware is basically a sitting duck against both.
Hard to see the logic in this.

Based on the performance of S-400 batteries and the Russian jets in Ukraine against the hardware that Pakistan most likely is buying from the US, kind of waste of money by India. But it's their money...

Investing 35B to renewable energy sources instead would completely alter the energy landscape.
Look what happened in Europe after Russia said "we will freeze you to death":
Even on German latitudes you now have days when over 50% of the consumed energy came from renewable sources.
Now. Not 2030.

If taking land is as easy as changing your constitution, maybe other countries should follow the lead?
It is amazing that he even pulled the rug from under the already dead Witkoff plan.
US no longer sends material or money to Ukraine, just sells arms to Europeans. Why do they lead the negotiations?
