"This will not stand. This will not stand, this aggression against Kuwait."--George H.W. Bush on August 5, 1990. Full quote from Jon Meacham's biography.

In December 2024, Elon Musk waded into Germany's election campaign, hailing the far-right Alternative for Germany party as the country's savior. Here’s what Musk’s involvement could mean ahead of the snap national election the country is holding https://t.co/CJt34BhhnA pic.twitter.com/5ZPZHzEm85— Reuters (@Reuters) February 20, 2025
Het idee was dat Oost- en West-Duitsland wel naar elkaar zouden toegroeien, qua inkomensniveua, qua mentaliteit, qua burgerzin, qua waardering van parlementaire democratie en markteconomie, qua openheid voor minderheden. De praktijk is anders.— Matthijs Schuurman (@mjschuurman) February 20, 2025
Gevolg is dat men in het oosten van Duitsland anders reageerde op de vluchtelingencrisis van 2015-2016 en anders reageerde op de inval van Rusland in Oekraïne. Die crises lieten zien dat de spanning tussen oost en west nog springlevend is.— Matthijs Schuurman (@mjschuurman) February 20, 2025
Was die Europäer jetzt schnell und wirksam tun können, ist, das eingefrorene russische Staatsvermögen von rund 250 Milliarden Euro einzuziehen und zu verwerten. Die USA drängen, es zu tun. Warum passiert selbst das nicht?!— Norbert Röttgen (@n_roettgen) February 20, 2025
Overigens zou het wel eens verstandig kunnen zijn als SPD en Grüne besloten alleen samen met de CDU te willen regeren. Voor de Oekraïnepolitiek is dat goed. Nadeel zou wel zijn: nauwelijks nog redelijke oppositie over. Maar dat is nu eenmaal de situatie met een zo grote AfD.— Jan Dirk Snel (@JDSnel) February 20, 2025
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will propose a plan to Trump for deploying European troops in Ukraine - The Telegraph. The plan includes stationing around 30 000 troops under the leadership of European countries in Ukrainian cities, ports, and critical infrastructure sites… pic.twitter.com/i5IJWo5TOB— Anton Gerashchenko (@Gerashchenko_en) February 20, 2025
Trump should not be included in any serious discussions about European security until he proves he is not acting in Russia’s interests. So far, he has shown no real support for Ukraine or NATO, repeatedly undermined European defense efforts, and even called Zelensky a dictator.…— Gandalv (@Microinteracti1) February 20, 2025
He needs to sort out the peace deal first. There's no point in discussing peacekeeping troops if a ceasefire is drawn up on Trump's (Putin's) terms.— Looney the laid back cat (@LooneyCatA) February 20, 2025
Keir Starmer should not propose any plans to Trump. That ship has sailed, US can be considered the same as Belarus. It's time to coordinate with European NATO allies instead.— Juha Remes 🐧👨💻 (@juha_remes) February 20, 2025
Trump will just say no . Unless Putin supports it— WFONBFE (@WFONBFE) February 20, 2025
It is so dull and nauseating really. Stop appeasing fascists. Do not send anything to Trump. For once Europe wake up and put these fascists on the backfoot. Just fucking send the troops and weapons already. We are in a pincer. US fascists on one side ruzzia on the other side. WTF— Lord Smew (@Dodi_) February 20, 2025
Hey Keir: Trump has switched sides, just so you know.— Justin D. Hughes (@jdhughez) February 20, 2025
Fuck a peace keeping force send troops to kick Russia out of Ukraine 🇺🇦— Kyle watters (@Kylewatters16) February 20, 2025
Why propose anything to a Traitor Trump? Oh, I know why. To corner him so he will have to reveal to the general public what we know already.— Janez 🕉️🇸🇮🇺🇦 (@crazyhorse65) February 20, 2025
The response will be: no article 5, you're on your own. And so it should be. Keep article 5 for the nuclear retaliation.— Pieter Vanderwee (@VanderweePieter) February 20, 2025
Why propose it to Trump? He's a Russian asset. Britain and Europe should just sideline the cunt.— Baryonyx (@HesseyJack) February 20, 2025
In Oost-Oekraïne hebben de Russen een twee kilometer lange "net tunnel" aangelegd tegen Oekraïense FPV-drones. Basically: Palen langs de kant vd weg en daarover een groot net gespannen waardoor drones in het net verstrikt komen te zitten voordat ze voertuigen op de weg raken. https://t.co/853Yxdgc2U— Harald Doornbos (@HaraldDoornbos) February 20, 2025
De peilingen. Het ziet ernaar uit dat de Linke de kiesdrempel haalt. Met 85,8% geldige stemmen blijven coalities van de CDU met SPD of Grüne mogelijk, al wordt de laatste optie krap. Als BSW en FDP toch de kiesdrempel halen, zit die er niet meer in. pic.twitter.com/xaofXRQZCF— Jan Dirk Snel (@JDSnel) February 20, 2025
In de nieuwe geopolitieke constellatie moet Europa zo snel mogelijk zijn energie-afhankelijkheid van de VS (en Rusland) afbouwen. Om onze onafhankelijkheid en onze rechtsstaat te behouden moet de energietransitie niet vertraagd maar versneld worden.— coenwessel (@coenwessel) February 18, 2025
De Duitse steun zal na de verkiezingen alleen maar steviger worden. Merz, vastberadener dan Scholz, zou er goed aan doen om over het beleid inzake defensie en buitenland - concreet: Oekraïne - direct afspraken te maken met Habeck en Pistorius, die Scholz wel zal opvolgen. https://t.co/ZmOX1AhZXS— Jan Dirk Snel (@JDSnel) February 20, 2025

A forced capitulation of Ukraine would mean a capitulation of the whole community of the West. With all the consequences of this fact. And let no-one pretend that they don’t see this.— Donald Tusk (@donaldtusk) February 19, 2025

He wants a Russian puppet, like Putin always wants. The thing is we all know Putins games now. Zelensky especially. Hence we know that if it is not peace but ceasefire, Putin will re-arm. If there is another election and a puppet does not win = invade.— Unreachable Itch (@TurdBurgley) February 20, 2025
