It’s not a phobia if it’s a real threat, you bag of smashed assholes.
The enemies of Europe do not like the new leaders of Europe, I suppose we have not chosen so badly in the elections the other day
She seemed to be a pretty reasonable politician to me. I think she'll do fine. If Russia wants to improve their relations with the EU, then they might want to stop acting like an adversary.
Well, I don't have exactly the same opinion, another day we can discuss things like Pfizergate or why a Ukrainian is worth more to this commission than a Palestinian. But it is clear that it is much better that whatever the Kremlin considers acceptable, there is no debate on that
No idea what Kaja Kallas has to do with Pfizergate to be completely honest...
And Palestine & Israel are outside of Europe and both sides are a fucking mess that no one wants to deal with. I also find this whole Palestine argument idiotic and hypocritical when there's been war in the middle East for decades but suddenly everyone claims to care, now that Israel is involved.
Disdain for Russia and maligning their influence is completely reasonable in these circumstances.
What do they expect? There is no trust in Russian politics anymore. 🤦🏻♂️
I'm irritated that there was ever any trust in Russian politics. You are way too optimistic after the USSR ended.
If anything everyone is now undeniably aware that any agreement with Russia is not even worth the paper it is written on.
That's all the confirmation I need to know that this is the man for the job.
Woman for the job.
I couldn't read the artìcle, because a the cyrillic pop up (possibly gdpr). The picture in the thumbnail is a man, so I assumed that was the man.
Europe should muster whatever strength she has to wage an earnest hybrid war against russia.
Just start the war in the springtime.
As I understand the two of you: "hybrid" has a "conventional " component, and "springtime" supposedly refers to the fact that seizing Russia in winter is hard.
If my reading of this is correct, please stop your trains of thought. You guys sound way too trigger-happy. It helps absolutely no one to turn the Russia-Ukraine war into an EU-Russia war. War just kills a ton of people, and for what, in that case?
Sensibly enough, everyone in the EU is trying to avoid getting involved in the "conventional warfare" bit and containing things to Ukraine. I am also fairly sure that right now, nobody whosoever is dumb enough to try to seize Russia.
Didn't think I needed to add an /s to comments like this, but I guess I will just start doing that from now on.
Sorry for misinterpreting you. But then, you responded to a comment that was apparently serious. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Sorry for the snippy response. I have a lot going on right now, and I attributed malice where there was none.

I didn't think that other guy was serious 🤦♂️

- This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
- No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
- Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
- No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism.
- Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
- If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
- Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in !yurop@lemm.ee. (They're cool, you should subscribe there too!)
- Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.

(This list may get expanded when necessary.)
We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.
If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.
