and that can change over night. Seriously media is powerful, but it is pretty easy to have a billionaire thrown into say Guantanamo and tortured until he signs over his wealth or at least most of it. That is sort of what China does and it seems to work.

Honestly the EU should replace vetoes with qualified majority in a lot more cases. That would help a lot more.

The US currently has four different fighter jets or similar in service and China has nine looking at Wikipedia. So no not really a problem, if they are different enough planes, as designed for different tasks. It currently looks like they will be with France building a small, light carrier capable jet and Germany a larger, long range, heavy, fast ground based one.

This is just weird. Like Russian LNG will be cut by the end of the year and pipeline gas in autumn of the next year. So that will be the point, where the EU needs the most gas from other countries. After that going green with heat pumps and so forth will reduce gas consumption over the years.

Also especially Niger is hardly a stable country.

That reliance is being addressed, just in a calm manner. That is why the EU does trade deals all over the world and is also working on new military projects. However that needs time and the best way to get that is to negotiate.

The other big part are the Midterms. If the Democrats win control over the House, they can at least hurt Trump somewhat. That would lift many sanctions pretty quickly. If not then plan A still works.

That was a huge part of what the parliament ended up negotiating into the deal. If the US does not honour it, then it is dead.

Still honestly a shame, that the US does shit like that.

Just Stop Oil

This should be extended to EU launch providers as well. Arianespace is great and there are a lot of small providers coming up as well.

‘It’s literally going to break me.’ Commuting is now unaffordable for some American workers

Is North Korea in Europe or in Asia?

Really good location for the talks.

They get seven power plants. Two are still operating, three have been shut down last year and the other two earlier then that. The two still operating plants are from 1985. That means they need their mid life service soon.

The issue is that decommissioning a nuclear power plant is really expensive. They probably loose money taking them over.

That is just the army. So the air force and marines are not included.

There is nothing, which can replace the US bases in Germany on short notice. These are state of the art facilites, which have been built up over literally decades. Even if you moved them to say Poland or Romania, that would take years and billions.

At the same time with Germany rearming, it should be rather possible for the Bundeswehr to take them over. So the local economy would not be impacted as badly.

The population of the EU grew in that timeframe. Not by much, but still.

They use an AESA radar. They basicly replace the spinning with better electronics.

Most everybody as he is speaking for one of the worlds superpowers.

After 9PM, Orbán phoned Magyar to congratulate him on his victory; Magyar published this on his Facebook page.

When even Orban is better then Trump…
