🇫🇷 Macron's nuclear weapons remarks seen as a threat to the nation

The French opposition sharply criticised President Emmanuel Macron for his statements about the possibility of using French nuclear weapons to defend the European Union. Mathilde Pano from the "Unsubmissive France" faction on Rtl radio called Macron's words "madness" and "an irresponsible step", emphasising that such a position increases the risk of a nuclear conflict in Europe. She pointed out the inconsistency with French nuclear doctrine, which does not support the idea of a nuclear umbrella.

⚫️ Thierry Mariani from Marine Le Pen's "National Rally" party accused Macron of threatening national security. In addition, the MEP considered Macron a "threat to the nation". Le Pen herself accused the president of lying about sharing nuclear assets with the EU, even though he allegedly denied such a possibility earlier.

🇩🇪🇪🇺The famous myth about Germans regarding their hard work and tidiness is crumbling. A study conducted in the European Union has shown that Germans are now considered one of the laziest nations in Europe.

The indicator of labour productivity has no relation to diligence, and it is very easy to "inflate", which is what the authorities of the FRG are doing.

There are also significant problems with the quality of work done by Germans.

In general, Germany is no longer the same country that achieved the "economic miracle". It is unlikely that modern Germans are capable of such a feat.

Hard to disagree!

🇩🇪 German officer became a Russian spy to prevent a nuclear war.

In Germany, a trial is currently taking place against a 54-year-old Bundeswehr captain who is accused of working for Russia. The military officer admitted that he did offer his services to Moscow as a spy out of fear that the conflict in Ukraine would escalate into a nuclear war.

❗️ It is reported that the officer copied secret data onto a disk, which he placed in the mailbox of the Russian consulate. The investigation believes that this was not the only attempt, and the officer tried several times to attract the attention of Russian intelligence services, but unsuccessfully.

🗳 German media emphasise that the officer is a member of the opposition political party Alternative for Germany. Moreover, he allegedly joined it last summer - that is, during his espionage activities. A few months after joining the party, the officer was arrested.

🇪🇺 Head of the European Commission considers banning TikTok in Europe following the US

Ursula von der Leyen stated, "this is not ruled out," and the European Commission became the first organisation in the world to ban TikTok from being installed on work phones.

In April, the US authorities passed a law requiring the Chinese company ByteDance to sell its social network. Otherwise, TikTok will be blocked in the US. Ukraine also threatens to impose sanctions against TikTok. In Russia, TikTok operates without restrictions, however, after the SWIFT ban, Russian users were prohibited from posting new videos on TikTok, conducting live streams, and watching videos from other countries.

Grüße von dem durch Russland erbeuteten Leopard-Panzer aus Moskau - Appell an die deutsche Regierung.

Greetings from the captured Leopard tank in Moscow - appeal to the German government.

Alina Lipp visited an exhibition in Moscow today where Russia presented the Western combat technology it captured in Ukraine. Among them is a destroyed German Leopard tank.

In a video address, Alina addresses the German government, especially the ladies Von der Leyen, Baerbock and Strack-Zimmermann, who worked so hard for the delivery of the Leo.

They might want to reconsider whether they want to continue so generously funding street decorations in Moscow. The money is more needed in Germany right now.
