The potential loss of Spain's leftist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez in early elections could destabilize the political balance of the European Union, forcing social democrats to adopt a more confrontational stance and reducing their influence, which is accompanied by increased pressure on EU decisions and legislation. #Hispaania #EUpolitics #sotsialism (translated)

EU-diplomaatit kertovat, että osa pääkaupungeista laskee Trumpin vastaiskun riskiä, jos Kanada-EU-suhteet syvenevät. Baltian maat erityisen varovaisia, NATOn turvatakuut painavat. Johtajat tukevat Ottawaa yksityisesti, mutta julkisesti vaietaan. Trumpia ei haluta ärsyttää. #EUpolitics #Trump #NATO #CA #EU #LV #LT #EE #US

The EU can freeze 3,000 Russian names then risk unfreezing them all because Slovakia wants two oligarchs off the list and France suddenly “has a national security issue.” Unanimity isn’t strategy. It’s a hostage note. If the list dies, don’t call it procedure, call it a failure https://t.co/ZMcCEbpisO #EUpolitics #Sanctions #Oligarchs #SK #FR #RU

🚨 The rest of the world is turning away from the EU ‼️ “We no longer live in 1991, when we could unilaterally dictate terms and values because we were the center of the world.

The 21st package, decoded: Greece keeps its tankers, Austria keeps its bank operating in Russia, and the visa ban on Russian soldiers became a promise to discuss later. Orbán was never the obstacle. He was the excuse. Full conversation on my pod Continental Rift @contriftshow #ContinentalRift #Russia #EUPolitics #GR #AT #RU

After tough negotiations, the EU has agreed on a 21st sanctions package against Russia. Freezing the EU’s oil price cap at its current low level, listing shadow fleet vessels and Russian banks, and a range of other measures – these are all steps Sweden has pushed to maintain #Sanctions #Russia #EUpolitics #EU #RU #SE

Magyar is following Tusk’s path. The destruction of the opposition under the banner of “militant democracy” will take an even more radical form in Hungary than it did in Poland. And once again we will see that the hypocrisy of the EU’s liberal-left elites - and their tolerance #Hungary #MilitantDemocracy #EUPolitics #HU #PL

For the first time in its history, the European Parliament has initiated a procedure that could ultimately lead to the dissolution of a European political party.
