An urgent goal should be to limit the amount EU countries can put into pockets of the US defense industry. If you really want to be less dependent and grow a European defense industry, no time like NOW.

European public works should no longer be open to US companies, and US banks can be levied massively if they want business here.

Don't just kick Tesla out of Europe, make sure they don't do another runner with "green" subsidies too. Bye bye.

The fake news peddlers and shit-monetizers X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube: we would do ourselves a favour keeping them out of our lives.

We do things differently (bah!), regulate (bah!) businesses with value-driven policies (bah!), and even get difficult on every other topic in international poitics (boo!).
We remind them too often of the negative aspects of their society.

For defense cooperation, setting up special privileges for the UK should not and probably will not be a problem.
EU at the time UK was still a member already had a ton of cooperations with different scopes (Norway, Switzerland..).

Dramatizing things a bit, not? They lost 40 kms in a year, it´s more reasonable than to state the Russian army is getting nowhere. And that was under the worst conditions, UKR barely having any amunition.
Phased build-up of defensive capabilities UK reflects budget reality, quite normal.

Russians are still murdering in Ukraine. It´s ending when it ended.
