My views are not rooted in international law or Western philosophy; it's just an opinion, rather based on history. Russia has never seized the opportunity to improve its moral standing or democratise its society. Germany, in spite of the dark years, has transformed into a modern, democratic people.

No, the more russian "media" I watch, the more I hate putin and russia. Of course, here I am supposed to say that not all russians are bad russians etc etc... being PK. But still, even if there is a tootsie tiny litte minority of decent people, there is something very disturbed with the rest of them

Rutte does'nt seem to believe in Europe at all... only In Trump's America. Nato needs a Secretary who stands up for Europe, and a non-Trump US on the side of Nato (if such a US still exist).

Nato does NOT need Rutte! Europe does not need Rutte.

I think Sweden should invoke NATO Article five as we are getting invaded (and tired of) US stupidity and trash culture.

Ukraine's FM Sybiha mocked Orbรกn's vow to block Ukraine's EU entry for 100 years. His Kremlin master won't live that long even with Orbรกn's organs, Sybiha quipped. Ukraine's MFA will frame the quote on EU accession day as a reminder of his lies.

The U.S. ended up electing a president, unfit for leadership. Even if voters didnโ€™t get the full picture at first, they certainly do now.

Newsomโ€™s speaks of โ€œweak European leadersโ€. But on political spinelessness, Congress is a far more obvious example.

Good thing with Trump's actions lately - still the ignorant, narcisistic baby - is that members of his admin (and of congress) CANNOT swear themselves free of their sycophant behaviour towards him.

Maybe rebublicans can clean out the rotten apples, and dems replace their leaders. Save the world!

You must all be so embarrased... but also you must act immediately and put him away, or at least remove him and his gang from office.

Post image Sen. Kelly statement: Over twenty-five years in the U.S. Navy, thirty-nine combat missions, and four missions to space, I risked my life for this country and to defend our Constitution โ€“ including the First Amendment rights of every American to speak out. I never expected that the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense would attack me for doing exactly that.
My rank and retirement are things that I earned through my service and sacrifice for this country. I got shot at. I missed holidays and birthdays. I commanded a space shuttle mission while my wife Gabby recovered from a gunshot wound to the headโ€“ all while proudly wearing the American flag on my shoulder. Generations of servicemembers have made these same patriotic sacrifices for this country, earning the respect, appreciation, and rank they deserve.

Tens of thousands of civilians joined democratic opposition leader Pรฉter Magyar on the streets of Budapest this afternoon, to raise their voices against the systematic abuse of children in state-run facilities, which came to light recently through leaked videos.

How embarrasing it must be to be to be a US citizen.

Will they ever get back? Can they restore their dignity? I mean, every thinking, healthy person knows that trump is an embarrassment so he's no surprise.

But that US people tolerates him? Allowed such a clown to take the presidency? Puzzled.

In these foul times, US has abandoned all democratic principles and become a crooked state.

Watching the proud laureates and their families during the Nobel Price ceremony - it somehow heals my soul a little.
Raise your voices, US, if there are still people who believe in decency and true values.
