I don't understand how shit like this does not already warrant to enact article 5. Russia sends literal sabotage units to us to physically destroy shit, as well as assassination squads to murder people. Those are and should be seen as direct attacks to our countries.
because politics, that would anger china and we've made the absolutely galaxybrained decision to make ourselves basically entirely reliant upon that one country to survive :)))
What would be the benefit of open war against Russia, especially if NATO were to start it? I see absolutely nothing.
There's a lot of room for additional sanctions against Russia too. The EU is still importing fossil gas and nuclear fuel, for example. Countries like Cyprus and the UK can probably still freeze additional Russian funds. [...]
Russia emits misinformation, Russia attacks through Interwebs, Russia employs espionage, Russia sabotages. But Russia has not performed a full-scale military attack on any NATO country. And unless they do, in the eye of any onlooker, NATO would be the one to start the altercation.
The best sanctions we could impose is a complete shutdown of all of Russia’s Internet access. You’d see massive reduction in disinformation across the web.
I have a 2021 SEAT Leon, my dad has a 2016 Volvo V90.
Both of our cars have cameras for lane keeping and reminding us of the speed limit.
Neither works 100%
My car recognize the "end of no overtaking" sign as being a speed limit sign for 90km/h
Then there is an area where it allways detects a change in the speed limit despite there being none, it is from 60 to 50, not a huge deal, but there is nothing stopping it from going from 120 to 30 instantly.
Then there are time when you might need to speed for safety.
I have been in that situation, example:
Me and my dad was driving on the back roads between Uppsala and Stockholm at night, dad was driving, there was an oncomming car when suddenly dad accellerated hard, swerved into the oncomming lane and back again.
There had been a moose that decided to cross the road just as two cars passed eachother, we would not have had time to stop, the only thing to do was to speed and swerve.
The moose incident may be an edge case, but the road sign detection issues are not and the EU should wait untill the system is reliable before forcing it out.
Same here my mum just got a new electric BMW and the speed limit the car thinks to itself is constantly not being 100% correct. It just makes up speed limits sometimes.
Although the projection is better than what I was dreading, it's still not over until the last results are in. With that being said, if these projections are right, the current and upcoming French government should really start thinking about how to combat the far right. Incidentally it's the same task the new Labour government should also do.
The new Labour government is basically the political equivalent of Macron only in some ways further to the Right (for example, they support Israel).
That party is controlled by the neoliberal faction who brought down Corbyn with a smear campaign orchestrated with the Tories and most of the British Press and who have even been busy kicking out from the party any lefties.
There's not a single leftie bone in the leadership of that party and the party is now straightforward Right (per broader European standards, it's not even Center-Right).
If one is in any way for of shape left of center, Britain's Election results isn't anywhere the level of good news that the French Election results are (if the polls are right).
And with any luck they won't successfully manage to leave the entire continent in ruins this time around. Whenever it works, defeating fascists at the ballot feels so easy that it's almost anticlimactic.
Everyone involved with organisation these last months know damn well that it wasn't easy, though. Super proud of the French today! 🇫🇷
Yes, but now the train has left the station. Great Britain had some very favorable conditions. Even if the EU and the UK were to come to terms, this special deal would certainly not happen again. It can't get any better than it was, only less bad.
Found the German! The English equivalent of “der Zug ist schon abgefahren“ would be “that ship has sailed”. Which is pretty funny if you think about the geography of the UK versus the German speaking realm.
Pretty insane that Moscow and St. Petersburg only rank a little higher than a the Ukrainian capital that is suffering from drone attacks and power outages on the regular.
His voters won't know about this. Government propaganda is in a different world. He just met with Zelinsky, Putin and the Chinese dictator, and couldn't achieve anything, obviously. In government media he is praised for trying to bring peace everywhere but the evil EU and US don't let him succeed, and we have to vote him otherwise Hungary will get pulled into the war.
Oh, there is Euro football match today, so everyone will hear about this. During the half time break there are not just ads, but also a little news segment where you can hear about his latest achievement. So those who are not interested in politics but football can hear about the adventures of our glorious leader.
Yeah, for sure. I just take comfort in knowing it bruised his ego a little.
As for getting rid of him it's going to take a lot more. Poland gives hope, but the situation there was not as bad as in Hungary.
I just hope that him trying to play an increasingly bigger role globally will lead to his downfall somehow. He clearly has a distorted image of himself and his abilities, which is not a great starting point of aspiring dictators.
I don't generally see videos of politicians, as I get my news primarily from written sources and I don't have much of an interest in rhetorics. It's fascinating to see his words are as idiotic as his actions.
I guess he manages to come across as more convincing in Hungarian.
Europe
