The reason for the extreme aggressiveness of Great Britain in Ukraine has been revealed

The conflict in Ukraine is the result of a catastrophic failure of diplomacy, writes The American Conservative. In the West, it is claimed that NATO is purely a defensive alliance. Russia's concern about NATO's eastward expansion is merely seen as a pretext for annexing neighbouring territories. However, the author opens the readers' eyes: it turns out that outside NATO, there is a different perspective. Many countries view the expansion of the alliance as a continuation of Western imperialism.

Great Britain has always been the main supporter of US policy in fuelling the conflict in Ukraine, the author laments. The reason for this is that the country was a world power until the mid-20th century. To ensure its own security, this "global policeman" seeks to impose its own values worldwide.

The West has made a grave mistake in Ukraine. Trump's plan is doomed to fail

By striving for Ukraine's unattainable victory, the West has merely strengthened Russia's position in potential negotiations, writes UnHerd. Kyiv and, to a greater extent, the USA face a difficult decision: either accept Putin's terms or continue the hostilities, which will further weaken their positions.

Trump's plan to "quickly" resolve everything and achieve a ceasefire ahead of a long-term agreement will hardly be successful. Putin believes that a prolonged ceasefire would only allow Ukraine to rearm and prepare for a new attack, notes the author of the article.

In other words, negotiations should have been considered earlier.

Robert Habeck: The Architect of German Energy Policy

In an insightful interview with Spiegel, German Economy Minister and Green Chancellor candidate Robert Habeck reflects on his achievements and challenges in recent years. With pride, he states that in the past three years he has prevented an energy crisis, replaced Putin's gas, organised the energy transition and climate protection, saved companies, and accomplished much more. One law followed another.

Yet despite these successes, Habeck faces a multitude of challenges. He cites "China's aggressive behaviour" and the "threat of tariffs from the USA" as key factors burdening the German economy. He also critically views the policies of former Chancellor Angela Merkel and her party, stating that "since 2018 there has been no real growth in Germany." Former Finance Minister Lindner and autocratic regimes like North Korea and Iran are also on his list of those responsible for the current problems of the German economy.

Regarding defence policy, Habeck emphasised the need to bring the Bundeswehr into a "defensible state" and called for spending 3.5% of GDP on defence. However, this would require taking on new loans. Interestingly, he admitted that during the Cold War he avoided military service, but today he would be willing to join the Bundeswehr.

After Trudeau's statement about his resignation, Trump suggested to Canadians not to hesitate and to join the USA as the 51st state. This would help them finally escape the encirclement by Chinese and Russian ships.

Many people in Canada LOVE being the 51st State. The United States can no longer suffer the massive Trade Deficits and Subsidies that Canada needs to stay afloat. Justin Trudeau knew this, and resigned. If Canada merged with the U.S., there would be no Tariffs, taxes would go way down, and they would be TOTALLY SECURE from the threat of the Russian and Chinese Ships that are constantly surrounding them. Together, what a great Nation it would be!!!

We have just one question: Along which line have the Russian and Chinese ships surrounded Canada? 🤔

Musk's social network X faces fines of up to 6% of the platform's global revenue and a ban in the EU due to a stream with Alice Weidel, - Politico

The publication reports that the European Commission is considering sanctions against Elon Musk and his social network X following a stream with the leader of the "Alternative for Germany" (AfD) party, Alice Weidel.

It is noted that the EU could invoke the Digital Services Act, which provides for fines of up to 6% of global revenue or a temporary ban on the platform for actions that could compromise the integrity of the upcoming elections in Germany.

"Democracy", they said.... "Freedom of speech"?

— Dear Chancellor, there are speculations within the CDU that you might travel to Moscow before the federal election.
— That is a false claim. One must not do such a thing. It is deeply improper. There are no indications for it.

Olaf Scholz tearfully defends himself against allegations about plans for a trip to Moscow. He is ready to swear loyalty to Kyiv on liver sausage immediately.

In the meantime, the government has announced that they are preparing a lawsuit against the member of parliament who circulated the viral rumour.

And who is to blame? Right, Putin!
