Les préfets ont reçu ordre de l'Intérieur de réserver les dates du 16 et 23 novembre pour des élections, selon mes infos (source préfectorale), qui confirment celles du Canard. Macron semble préférer prendre le risque de mettre le RN au pouvoir que d'appeler la gauche à Matignon. #Off

The Commission proposal for the next long-term EU budget aka MFF just dropped. Its overall volume increases very moderately, but the proposal contains sweeping changes to the way the EU spends money and to budget's priorities.

Here is my first quick take:

Europe has to pay more for its own defence.

One debate is whether they should "Buy European" weapons or buy them from America or other allies.

One really BAD statistic is polluting the debate: that the EU buys 80% of its weapons from overseas. Ursula von der Leyen repeated it today. It's wrong. 🧵

CDU/CSU &SPD have just proposed a sea change in German fiscal policy:

- defence spending above 1% of GDP exempt from debt brake
- 10-year €500bn special fund for infrastructure
- looser debt rules for states
- further debt-brake reform in new Bundestag

1945, the Allies discuss the partition of Germany.
The Soviets occupied the East and Center, the Americans the South, the British the West and North, and France the South-West. The only exception is Berlin (and Erfurt?), that will be further divided.

Not the decision-making body for most of the questions concerning Ukraine and defence, but noteworthy nonetheless to see the 'von der Leyen' majority in the European Parliament coming together to call for swift EU action in support of Ukraine and for European defence:
