⚡EU's Kaja Kallas: We were naive for years about technological dependence. We didn’t know. Over 90% of batteries and critical raw materials come from one supplier.

⚡EU’s Kaja Kallas: Europe can be slow. Unanimity means we cannot always act at the speed of relevance. Of course, there are policy differences among member states. This is all natural. But unanimity is also used by some as a bargaining tool, and it cannot be that one country’s veto defines the policy for others.

⚡EU’s Kaja Kallas: Europe is no longer Washington’s primary center of gravity. The shift has been ongoing for a while. It is structural, not temporary. No great power in history has ever outsourced its survival and survived. The risk of a return to coercive power politics and a world where might makes right is very real. Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney hit the nail on its head in his own speech in Davos: it's time also for Europe to take down its sign. We are now dangerously close to the third bell.

⚡EU’s Kaja Kallas: We must be able to win the fight tonight and be ready tomorrow. What geopolitical role do we want Europe to play? Could we establish EU military capabilities financed and owned by the member states?

The European Union dumped trade with the U.S to seal a trade deal with ordinary India. One clown here swears trading with the US is the most important thing on earth. Meanwhile their own allies don't even rate them. Only people who have never stepped foot in America overrates them. |

Barvinkove currently hosts the closest operational railway station to the Donbas, and is around 42 km from the frontline.

⚡Trump: A massive Armada is heading to Iran. It is moving quickly, with great power, enthusiasm, and purpose. It is a larger fleet, headed by the great Aircraft Carrier Abraham Lincoln, than that sent to Venezuela. Like with Venezuela, it is, ready, willing, and able to rapidly fulfill its mission, with speed and violence, if necessary. Hopefully Iran will quickly “Come to the Table” and negotiate a fair and equitable deal - NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS - one that is good for all parties. Time is running out, it is truly of the essence! As I told Iran once before, MAKE A DEAL! They didn’t, and there was “Operation Midnight Hammer,” a major destruction of Iran. The next attack will be far worse! Don’t make that happen again.

⚡NATO Secretary General clashed with EU leaders over support for the US and Trump — Politico Rutte faced harsh criticism from European politicians over his statements about Europe's dependence on the USA. The reason was Rutte's speech in the European Parliament, where he said: "If someone thinks that Europe can protect itself without the USA, keep dreaming." French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot replied that Europe "can and should be responsible for its own security." European Parliament member Nathalie Loiseau called Rutte's words "shameful" and stated that NATO "doesn't need a Trump fanatic." Spanish MP Nacho Sánchez Amor asked whether Rutte represented NATO or the USA. European diplomats admit that Rutte helped reduce tensions over Greenland, but at the same time, he jeopardized long-term trust within the alliance. One diplomat stated that the crisis over Greenland "caused serious damage," and Rutte's approach "alienated allies." We are an alliance of 32 countries, not a 'USA plus 31' club," emphasized a source of the publication.

Scorpio99:🤡; the USA can survive a first nuclear strike. Me; I showed effects of nuclear winter and asked what kind of survival are we talking about? Also asked what is first strike? 🤡; when I say survival I meant the ability to retaliate and am not talking about devastating effects. ( * survival means retaliation to the 🤡) Me; I asked so if North America is destroyed in a nuclear strike, the USA can survive if they retaliate with a nuclear submarine 😂? 🤡; his brain overloads, he runs to the creator of all things Ai. Comes back like a headless chicken and starts shouting Tsar bomber, Monaco, do you think the USA can be destroyed. Me; wetin concern abero and overload , answer the damn question. The 🤡 also thinks the destruction from nuclear weapons is related to the blast radius 👏👏👏. This is good comic relief, now keep moving. |

⚡Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister to Tasnim: There are currently no negotiations with Washington, but messages are being exchanged with. Even if we sit with Washington for negotiations, this will not reduce our preparedness for any possible war. Any limited American attack will be met with an appropriate response. Our priority is not negotiations with Washington, but full readiness to defend our country. |

Mikasaobi:they realize belatedly that even after trump leaves the us will pursue the same objectives but with different methods it wasn't trump that blew up nordstream that is now forcing europe to become dependent on us energy essentially trading one dependence for another as well as destroying european global competitiveness both outcomes that the us has shown remarkable willingness to exploit with or without trump the understanding is that america is in an existential struggle with other great powers to stave off inevitable decline and that america has no scruples using its western vassal like it uses ukraine and the kurds to bludgeon its rivals that scares them to bits they've always believed they were special so they're trying to build up strategic independence so that when the us asks them to jump off a cliff for american interests as the us tried to do with greenland they can say f*ck off -Lord |
