They made them. The designer was someone else however.

Why have they not built the Eiffel tower in the Eiffel mountain range?

And technically I believe nowhere is it stipulated that the EU must be on the European continent. Turkey would have had most of their territory outside the EU

To be fair, RuSSia has been doing this since 2022. So far I believe it’s basically just a hybrid-terror attack

Federation us not only a political act to cede national soverignity and power to the federation. It is also the founding of a nation. And that requires first and foremost a majority consensus of the EU people that they’re Eu citizens.

I for one doubt that I will see it in my lifetime (still some 60 years I hope).

Would not be the first time the conservatives in Germany killed a well running industry, without need, while still calling themselves knowledgable about the economy. If I got a penny for every time they killed an industry through policy I’d have 2 and I am one track to have 5 maybe 6 soonish.

Whatever you mean, you’ll have to clarify.

BallyM is so disappointing

Diplomacy in one mold, right Merz?

The short-sigthedness of the self-called conservatives is really something else. Makes me, someone that wears glasses to see on longer distances, appear almost 20-20.

They did not choose to. The EU wasn’t even a thing when the USA became the de facto world police. And after WW2 the USA was so dominant that any such attempt by Europes stronger countries would have been in vain

That is a very short-sighted view. The US’ role as world police allowed it to station troops all over the world, projecting power and influence in every corner of the world. Every deal any country in the world made, always at least considered a US deal. The US was able to influence politics without actually having to flex the military muscle. They could always still do that if diplomacy didn’t work. The projection of scientific and cultural power was also part of that influence.

I wish I would share your optimism

In Germany the AfD is outright denying it. The CDU is downplaying the effects. Both of which are state and federal.

I reckon it’s the same in every european state. The far-right deny it, the right downplay it.

The AA-crews wanted to make sure it was Russian, so they shot it down at which point it definetly was Russian, by virtue of not flying

I feel like the people thing is good, but the designs are bad. The birds are better looking though

You are aware that this can and should be solved by diplomacy? The naming is not smart. But it was likely for domestic policy reasons and probably not to antagonize Poland or its people.

Taking back the medal is also mostly domestic policy to curb righ-wing popularity from growing. Yet it is also a public affront to Ukraine.

Therefore both sides should work for a diplomatic solution and not inflate this topic beyond a sensible degree. Ukraine won’t join the EU anytime soon anyway, there’s still plenty of time to change this.

However, this post and the videos give Russian propaganda vibes, it’s likely meant to sow disagreement in the EU

That is completely normal. Criminal courts are usually public, fotos however are only allowed right at the beginning. The defendent has the right, and most use thst right, to not be seen in pictures as ti make resocialisation possible.

Unusual? Hasn’t that happened annually fir a few years now? I’d argue that this is the new usual

Definetly not, I wouldn’t even be surprised if he couldn’t hold until the next regular election
