The author wrote that for a political awakening in Berlin, new paths must be taken and antisemitism as well as hatred towards Israel must be excluded. A coalition of CDU, Greens, and SPD would not be perfect in his assessment, but with a common personality of nationwide impact in the Red City Hall, it could make history for Berlin. #Berlin #Politik #Gemeinschaft #DE (translated)

Finance Minister Markus Marterbauer is cold-shouldering the Neos and refers to joint government resolutions, while Beate Meinl-Reisinger refers to the newly introduced package tax as nonsense and calls for its abolition, yet without presenting any concrete alternatives. #Paketsteuer #Neos #Finanzministerium (translated)

"Lukas Resetarits and Peter Resetarits have pursued a common goal in very different ways: they have shaped public life and consistently focused on quality, attitude, and social responsibility. One on stage and in front of the camera, the other in journalistic efforts for the concerns of the people – both have left a lasting impact on public life in Austria," said Ludwig in his speech. #ResetaritsBrüder #Ehrenzeichen #Wien (translated)

Regina Laska wrote that CDA chairman Dennis Radtke (CDU) referred to Gerhard Schröder's recent appearance in Moscow in the Tagesspiegel as a "case of moral bankruptcy" and called on the SPD to expel the former chancellor from the party. Laska agreed with him. Schröder was too ill to testify before a parliamentary inquiry but fit enough to celebrate Vladimir Putin's birthday in Moscow and accept a new supervisory board position in Russia. According to Laska, the SPD state chairpersons in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg are now also demanding a new expulsion procedure. The SPD district of Upper Palatinate voted unanimously in favor of it on Saturday. Schleswig-Holstein's SPD leader Ulf Kämpfer stated that the paths of the party and Schröder had parted ways many years ago. Laska asked why Schröder was still a member of the SPD. Previous expulsion procedures had failed in 2022 and 2023. It is not only about Schröder's differing stance on Russia policy, Laska wrote, but also about his demonstrative loyalty to Putin, who has been waging a war of annihilation against Ukraine for more than four and a half years. She also pointed out that SPD foreign policy expert Ralf Stegner had praised Schröder's visit to Putin. Pierre Orthen, chairman of the SPD local club in Baden-Württemberg's Leutenbach, publicly questioned whether this was in line with the responsibilities of a member of the Bundestag's Foreign Affairs Committee. Laska wrote that Stegner had held talks with Kremlin-affiliated representatives in Baku in April 2025. It apparently concerned the future of the Petersburg Dialogue, which Schröder co-founded with Putin in 2001. In June 2026, Stegner was said to have praised Schröder's connection to Putin; now he had attended Putin's birthday party. Laska asked what these contacts had achieved for peace in Ukraine and wrote that anyone justifying such talks as efforts for peace must also be able to explain what they had accomplished. #Schröder #Ukraine #SPD (translated)

Anna wrote that US Senators Schumer, Shaheen, and Warren called Trump's diesel deal with Putin a "total betrayal" of Ukraine and pledged their support to Kyiv. They blamed the Iran war for rising fuel prices in the US and Europe and accused Trump of disregarding the bipartisan will of Congress, which had passed a law just weeks earlier prohibiting the purchase of Russian energy. The senators called for an end to the Iran war instead of financing Russia's war machinery, stating that Putin only responds to strength. Anna recalled that Trump told Zelensky in February 2025 at the White House that he had no cards. Now, Trump is allegedly asking Zelensky for oil with diesel prices exceeding $6 per gallon. According to Anna, Moscow is receiving a sanctions reprieve and new sales markets while Washington is facing accusations of betrayal in its own Senate. She cited a joint statement from the senators, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Arab News, and SRF as sources. #Ukraine #Trump #Putin (translated)

Ralf Fuecks wrote that Marco Rubio spoke about the rebirth of the West in front of the Acropolis, while U.S. President Donald Trump, in his opinion, is conspiring with Vladimir Putin against Ukraine. Trump blames Ukrainian President Zelensky for the high oil and gas prices, which Fuecks claims were triggered by Trump's attack on Iran. At the same time, Trump criticizes Ukrainian counterattacks on the Russian energy system without mentioning the daily war of annihilation against Ukraine, and calls for Zelensky's ouster because he resists submission to the Kremlin. Fuecks wrote that no U.S. president has sunk so low up to now, not even Richard Nixon. Europe must combine its military-industrial potential with that of Ukraine in order to be stronger than Russia together and to show Trump boundaries. https://t.co/rqyjqFUYCz #Ukraine #Putin #Europa (translated)

Christopher Michel wrote that Adi Hütter substituted Robin Koch because he expected more from a leader and defensive chief in light of 16 goals conceded. Hütter wanted to set a signal with the substitution and explained that the responsibility for defeats and victories lies with the team. Criticism should primarily be directed at himself. #SGE #RBLSGE #Eintracht #Eintracht #Fußball #Kapitän (translated)

The author termed neutrality as an excuse for cowards, freeloaders, and socialists. He wrote that it is immoral, unsolidary, and irresponsible, and represents a betrayal of collective European security in the face of the threat to Europe. Freedom must be defended, he added. https://t.co/kUUaHEOsk0 #Europa #Freiheit #Solidarität (translated)
