Trump-denktank pleit openlijk voor einde Europese Unie
"Ik zie geen enkel toekomstscenario waarin Europa beter af is mét het voortbestaan van de Europese Unie dan zonder", zegt Nile Gardiner, Europadirecteur van de Heritage Foundation.

Aujourd'hui c'est le solstice d'hiver dans l'hémisphère Nord. Les journées vont commencer à rallonger! Le soleil ne se lève à l'Est (centre de l'image avec Nord à gauche, Sud a droite) que lors des équinoxes. La position du lever change un peu tous les jours! (©Z. Al-Abbadi)

Vrolijk #Sinterklaasfeest!
De heilige #SintNicolaas is al eeuwen een bekend figuur, maar vanaf de 19de eeuw begon hij steeds meer te lijken op onze #Sinterklaas. Daar hadden Amsterdamse onderwijzers iets mee te maken. Maar wat dan precies?

This FT account of pure thuggishness of Trump representatives posing as diplomats has not appeared in US media anywhere, but is being widely circulated and reported in media in Europe, the UK and the Asia Pacific area. Be sure to read it all.

Norway tested two different types of electric buses this summer -one from a Dutch and one from a Chinese manufacturer- to assess cybersecurity risks.

The tests revealed that the Chinese bus could be controlled and turned off remotely, while the European one could not.
