Trump’s tariffs were meant to punish the world—but the blowback is hitting home first. Prices are soaring, allies are retaliating, and the U.S. economy is bracing for impact. #TrumpTariffs #tarrifs

Trump’s tariff blitz may play well in headlines—but the real impact is a global backlash and an economic tsunami headed straight for the U.S.

Trump’s words echo far beyond Washington. Autocrats are listening—and acting. medium.com/@alexandrekr...

On my way to Montreal for the @natopapress Annual Session. Ukraine will dominate the discussions, set against the backdrop of the new U.S. administration. Critical moments for transatlantic unity and security—time to reaffirm our shared commitments. #NATO #Ukraine @RenewEurope

True security isn’t about budget percentages; it’s about capabilities. My opinion article published on @KyivIndependent. #Ukraine

Ukraine's allies must ramp up production of heavy military drones to thousands per week. Deploying massive swarms could target strategic Russian assets and strongholds with higher efficiency, reducing reliance on long-range missiles.

China's sentencing of Hong Kong democracy leaders to up to 10 years is a ruthless attack on freedom, the rule of law, and a display of authoritarianism. The world must condemn this assault on justice. #StandWithHongKong

Today marks 1000 days since Russia unleashed its brutal war of aggression against #Ukraine. For 1,000 days, Putin's imperialist agenda has driven devastation and inflicted unimaginable suffering through his campaign of aggression. Ukraine will prevail, and justice will come for Russia’s atrocities.

Russia is a clear and present menace to our security, society and economy. Until when will we allow this to continue?

"The French and British had allowed Ukraine to strike Russian territory in depth with their SCALP/Storm Shadow missiles." - Le Figaro

Christian Lindner has done a great service to Germany, EU, and Ukraine by bringing an end to Scholz's disastrous coalition. For too long, Scholz's half-hearted support for Ukraine played into Putin's hands. Danke, Herr Lindner. edition.cnn.com/2024/11/15/e...

A relentless vendetta is coming. An authoritarian, unstable leader will pursue revenge against those who stood in his way. The U.S. will pull back from Ukraine and NATO, leaving Europe teetering on the edge of war and instability. A dark path lies ahead, and there’s no hero to save the day.

35 years ago, the Berlin Wall fell, symbolizing the triumph of freedom over oppression. Today, we honor those who dared to dream of a united Europe, and we recommit ourselves to defending democracy and the values that broke down barriers. #BerlinWall35 #mauerfall35
