Same difference (nti):

In February 2022, Belarus amended its constitution to allow Russia to deploy nuclear weapons on Belarussian territory. Russia deployed dozens of tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus at the end of 2023, and placed Belarus under its nuclear umbrella.

The German Government

From this Pov:

I’m no German citizen, but I feel the German Government needs to sort out what their Staatsräson, or reason of state, really means in 2020’s, like “protecting Jews and their state” Indiscriminately supporting Netanyahu is imo not the way.

To be clear, I stand against all forms of racism, fascism and discrimination.

I agree that these are scandalous practices.( #e)

It’s more that many things need to be proven with evidence and without doubt in a court of law. People are in principle innocent unless proven guilty. I mean lots of criminal bossez don’t get convicted for lack of proof, and or they just make judges" an offer they can’t refuse, like a bullet or some payoff money. Corruptionsand bribery are done in such fashion, afaik.

Having a right, isn’t the same as you getting the right. System doesn’t always work out well for the underdog, unfortunately.

How so? Electoral fraud and or foreign election interference are illegal afaik. It’s just - something hard to prove, probably.

The whole Cambridge Analytica( Brexit) isn’t really a showcase as there was no political will to persecute this. There were technically many occasssions the not legally binding referendum could’ve been overthrown, but the UK institutions just didn’t.

Just found this great quote in the article: Michel Duclos, a former senior French diplomat (…) said:

“Dmitriev celebrated in Miami, Breton denied US visa: Europe is becoming the new Russia for Washington. It brings to mind the 1920s – America favouring the former enemy [Germany) against its former allies – but worse.”

The EU really should.

Yeah, that happens.

Yes, that’s what I thought at first too. A [country] tag somewhere in the summary of the Post can be helpful at times. Though according to this community, US internal news shouldn’t be posted here fyi.#E

I’m unsure what sanctions relief US will precisely provide Belarus ( there were talks of opening the airspace, but here they talk about fertilizers and some trade), but it’s almost guaranteed that this sanctionrelief will give Ruzzia a new lifeline, prolonging the conflict and they counter the sanctions that are in place.

I’d welcome a future where Belarusians will be free.

This article creates a weird context. They are glueing here Trump’s intervention to the question whether the people want a regime change. I think those are two separate topics.

I don’t think anyone condones this Trump intervention, and I agree that it is disturbing and can have far-reaching consequences.

Apart from this, it’s Interesting to read how some journalist keep interviewing people living in a dictatorship and then call that public opinion. The quoted poll was made by a Venezuelan based company by a survey of 1200 ( maybe pre selected) individuals. Also according to UN officials the opposition has won the elections in Venezuela. If you wonder how the 8 million Venezuelans that have fled the country would feel about regime change per 12 dec 2025 ( The Hill):

" Venezuelans cite the same reasons for leaving: the impossibility of earning a stable income, the collapse of basic services, insecurity and the certainty that life will not improve under an authoritarian regime. These motivations have remained consistent regardless of U.S. foreign policy.

Those who leave sure tell a different story. I wonder why?

Not a very optimistic lookout. But if you know that beforehand, I reckon that means that the Brits could workout something better?

Some good news for the British youngsters.

Context by Techspot October 2025: Reverse-engineering ASML isn’t going great for China, engineers allegedly broke the machine trying. A costly mistake.

context: ASML Holding is the Dutch company that develops the world’s most advanced chip manufacturing machines. Many are attempting to replicate ASML’s technology, but, if the rumors coming from China are to be believed, they still have a long way to go

I find Russia guilty as fuck

And how many Trillion in damages? #E

Maybe beacuse this new President Kast, is from a rich family. Or maybe because his father was a Wehrmacht officer and member of the NSDAP? Maybe beacuse Rubio was quick to congratulate him. Take your pick.

Add. Most newspapers call him " ultra right".

No, no no no. the photos raise even more QUESTIONS /s

" These disturbing photos raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world. "

I’d say that Epstein got along" just fine" with them.

This link states, though I can’t verify this, that:

According to classified BKA (Bundeskriminalamt, in Eng: Federal Criminal Police Office, Germany) reports obtained by the team:

1,072 incidents involving 1,955 drones in 2025 alone (as of November 19). Forty-five percent occurred in evening hours. Drone swarms flew “almost exclusively over or near military installations.”

Note: author checks out though.

Let’s be carefull now with the NYT… is there another source?

Checks out, I found Moscow Times:

A Russian national charged in Poland with spying for Russian intelligence has admitted to passing information to Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), Polish media reported Monday, citing case files.

Investigators also allege that Rogov received a courier shipment containing components for a bomb, including liquid explosives, fuses and a power source.

Being funded by whom? The heritage foundation, the FSB or both?

Of course he does. Any real democracy is a threat to autocrats. Especially if they don’t cede to bullies. So the louder the autocrats bark, the bigger their fears are, and the stronger democracies get.

Hope BELGIUM @ DeWever understands this too. Maybe we need to mail the Belgian PM, so he doesn’t fold and ( does) release the frozen funds.
