The Brief – Danish presidency ditches 'Borgen' for boring - Euractiv
Denmark will have the chair in endless Council meetings and trilogues, but the presidency is a baton, not a magic wand.

If there’s so much buyer’s remorse about Brexit, why is Nigel Farage the rising figure in UK politics?

We are watching the unraveling of U.S. democracy in real time. And it sucks! But we got to learn our lesson in the EU and the rest of the world.
Don't trust the far right to actually care about democracy, rule of law or freedom. They lie to get *and* stay in power.
Again, I must say as a German.

8/ Without solid security guarantees, like NATO or US boots on the ground - the war cannot be stopped. Paper guarantees from the US hold little value, as the Budapest Memorandum has already shown. If Europe is expected to provide Ukraine’s security, why should Ukraine make a deal with the US at all?

You don't need to watch it if you haven't got the stomach for it, but you need to know it. Russia, again and again, is breaking international rules and purposefully executing prisoners of war. The russian soldiers are proud to have it filmed. They are proud to be feared.
🔴 Russian forces have reportedly executed six Ukrainian prisoners of war, as evidenced by widely circulated videos online.
The Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine has launched an investigation into the shooting of Ukrainian prisoners of war in the Donetsk region.
