Amerika’s uitgestoken hand naar Europa in actie

The only comment I have on the Rubio speech is that I don’t want to spend too much time on the Rubio speech.

Pinned lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Aug 19, 2021 Almost three years ago, my editor called me early one November morning. A wildfire had sparked near a town called Paradise, he said. Could I go? (1/13) 0:02 / 0:10 lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · 47m I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.

Veiligheidsgaranties VS voor Oekraïne enkel in ruil voor afstaan grondgebied? ‘Poging om Zelensky arm om te wringen’
