As a Russian asset, Trump indeed did get a lot of love from Russia through the past 40 years.

Ivana Trumps father also had his role, when Czechoslovakias StB and KGB ramped up spying on Trump in late 1980s.

Problem for West in 2026: Trump has decided its time sending back all that love to Russia.

Although modern #China may not have attempted to export its political system directly, it does support its international authoritarian countryclub very directly.

Just ask the Iranian democratic organisations how.

China’s ‘cyber sovereignty’ principles are shaping Iran’s approach to internet governance, normalising censorship and state control that helps escape accountability for human rights abuses.

‘Emulating China’s infrastructure of oppression helps Iran entrench power, sidestepping accountability and exercising full control over the information environment. That way, dissent is not just silenced, it is prevented from ever surfacing.’ – Mo Hoseini, ARTICLE 19

For over a decade, Iran has been borrowing directly from China’s digital authoritarian playbook — as Chinese tech companies embed inside the country and authorities work to replicate the Great Firewall via Iran’s National Information Network.

4/ Danish friends have pointed out that halibut is now also protected in the Danish zone of Skagerrak these winter months. The question is then: how is this enforced? And can we trust these bottomtrawlers will not target redlisted or protected species when they have been caught red-handed before?

A little bit of winter wonderland from our lake to start a mystical Monday and a marvellous working week everybody. We had a little snow last night after days with temperatures just around freezing point.

Exactly! This, alongside the transcript of the Bush-Putin meeting after the 2008 Bucharest NATO summit, is catastrophically naive. It really makes you wonder how the Russians have managed to repeatedly deceive a succession of poorly advised US presidents.

Because the Russians came to take everything from us — our land, our freedom, our joy, our children's future. And we decided not to give them anything.

When Ukrainians lit candles in cold apartments, repaired destroyed power stations, rescued people and animals from under rubble, held their ground in frozen trenches, and, despite everything, organized mass dances in the winter’s streets as a kind of coping strategy.

We will remember this winter.

When an entire nation froze in the cold right on the border with the European Union, fought against the Russian army's advance, but did not give up.
