Europe Needs A New Strategy Too The new US National Security Strategy helps - or forces - European leaders to let go of the consuming transatlantic crisis management efforts and to focus on an own strategy instead.

The new US National Security Strategy, in its predictable and characteristic ugliness, is a good occasion for Europe to finally let go of the time-consuming transatlantic crisis management efforts and start focusing on a proper and proactive own strategy instead.

Ukrainians endure daily attacks from Russia.

Russia is a terrorist state and a war criminal.

Thank you so much

Last night Russia sent about five hundred drones and missiles to kill Ukrainians. Most were intercepted but those that got through hit a post office, a store, a power plant, and multiple residences. 19 people were killed in Ternopil. (1/2)

I love it.

Person crossing a bridge in Venice. To the left, construction site barriers, to the right the open water. A grey but bright sky overhead.

So cool

Russia aims for subjugation by sheer terror.

Fair point.

Andrey Lugovoy openly lays out a playbook for hybrid subversion of the United States, from inserting operatives and buying politicians to stoking divisions, sabotaging governance and meddling in elections.

Wicked minds.

Very cool, thank you! Have some pics (which I may post later) to which this may fit even better...

Es ist verrückt, wenn wir jetzt über ein Ausbremsen der Energiewende reden – getarnt als "Realitätscheck". Die Realität sieht so aus:

90% der global neu gebauten Kraftwerke waren erneuerbar.

Im 1. Halbjahr wurden auf der Welt jeden Tag die Leistung von 2 Atomkraftwerken an Erneuerbaren dazugebaut.
