Can you imagine me adding a subchapter on 🇫🇷 excellence to the one on key resources available for 🇫🇷 leadership, for the book I am writing?
Quite challenging to reconnect to a perspective I had more than half a decade ago, before Paris wasted immense opportunities…

🇷🇴 The MK military #airbase in Constanța (Black Sea) is expected to have even more soldiers than initially announced : it could house _20,000 soldiers_ and will become a key hub for supporting #Ukraine.
#NATO military aid will be stored there.

France 🇫🇷 is being the object of serious intox and disinformation messages in the Romanian elections.
1. Telegram founder Durov blaming French gov. for attempts to influence Romanian elections;
2. TikTok post claiming that 🇫🇷 soldiers disguised as Romanian gendarmerie are ready to initiate civil war.

7 reasons why Romanian voters are hacked off — by the numbers From poverty to emigration and corruption, here are some the issues at the top of Romanian voters’ minds — and politicians’ programs.

🇷🇴 🇪🇺 The biblical cows of Poverty, Ignorance, Exclusion, Marginalization, Politicization, Hopelessness, Rancor and Deceit.

Summing up 35 years, especially the last quarter-century.

Some achievements came very late in an already deeply disfigured society.

Who remembers, cher @nicolastenzer.bsky.social, his 1993-1994 fascinating and wise plan of building a Common market of the Middle East?… Israel, Turkey, Syria and Egypt as the first 4 founding members, each with complementary resources.
Opportunity forever lost.

À mon courrier ce matin.
Un livre d'investigation qui promet d'être passionnant et nécessaire, et dont il faudra que les pouvoirs publics enfin (ce n'est pas la première alerte, même bien avant le 24 février 2022) tirent toutes les conséquences.
Merci, cher @nicolasquenel.bsky.social.

🇺🇦 puts an end to gas transit from 🇷🇺 to 🇭🇺 🇦🇹 in 2024; OMV looks for alternatives. 🇷🇴 is a major option, bc of Black Sea gas reserves via OMV-Petrom—but OMV🇦🇹 attempts to lobby the 🇷🇴gov. to change the export provisos of the offshore law failed.
