Mick van Wely wrote that his Dutch grandfather worked as an optician for the resistance in Leiden and took photos for forged documents. According to him, his father grew up with a strong aversion to Germans. When, as a five-year-old, he received an apple from a German soldier, he thanked him with a curse word for Germans, Van Wely said. His Hungarian mother, he said, grew up under communism, which he described as just as bad as fascism. Van Wely wrote that he had been raised at home with love for and respect for freedom. This, he said, explained why he sometimes reacted angrily when he saw that the carefully built Western lead and achievements, which had long been taken for granted, were coming under heavy pressure and were slowly being rolled back. #vrijheid #geschiedenis #verzet (translated)

The author noted that Pedro Passos Coelho would give an interview to Maria João Avillez on SIC Notícias, between 9 PM and 10 PM, and argued that his governance should be reassessed in light of the financial conditions he encountered. According to the author, Portugal had already requested external assistance when Passos Coelho arrived at the Government in 2011, and the adjustment program of 78 billion euros had been negotiated before he took office. He maintained that during the legislature, exports rose from about one-third of GDP to nearly 40% in 2015, including tourism, and that the tourism sector gained strategic momentum. Regarding privatizations, he acknowledged that some operations were questionable and warranted scrutiny but argued that they allowed the collection of billions of euros, the amortization of public debt, and reduce financing needs and interest burdens. He also considered that cuts in the public sector were painful but questioned what the alternatives would have been when the State could no longer finance itself normally. The author further highlighted that Portugal completed the financial assistance program in 2014 and returned to market financing without a precautionary program, recovering, in his view, decision-making leeway. He stated that Passos Coelho was the most relevant politician of the century in Portugal for having made unpopular decisions and contributed to an economic change whose effects surpassed his Government. #Portugal #Política #Economia (translated)

Steven Arrazola de Oñate wrote that Trump was right according to him, and that Volodymyr Zelensky should have reached an agreement earlier. He suggested that European leaders should have focused more on negotiations from the beginning and had to face the military situation; this could have possibly prevented a lot of human suffering. According to Arrazola de Oñate, Russia occupied about a fifth of Ukrainian territory and the war had reportedly claimed nearly two million military casualties, including dead, wounded, and missing. He believed that European politicians and media did not fundamentally question their strategy nonetheless. Arrazola de Oñate wrote that he never believed Ukraine could win the war militarily and that he did not expect the country to reclaim all the lost territory. He acknowledged that his position could provoke negative reactions and stated that he wanted more European leaders to express what he called uncomfortable truths. He also asked how many lives would still be sacrificed before diplomacy took precedence over political rhetoric. #Oorlog #Diplomatie #Vrede (translated)

Flávio Gordon summarized an article from Veja stating that Vorcaro allegedly negotiated payments with Vaccari to gain access to pension funds of federal employees controlled by the PT.

He also questioned whether Flávia Oliveira would show concern for retirees. #Corrupção #Petismo #Aposentados (translated)

Mariba criticized Dilan Yeşilgöz after she claimed that Russia had been declared an enemy of the Netherlands. According to Mariba, Yeşilgöz stated that the Netherlands was not at war, but that a carefree peace was also not in sight. Mariba wrote that the Russian consulate had asked the Dutch government to confirm or distance itself from the statements. She believed it should be made clear whether this was about official policy, a political warning, or political rhetoric. According to Mariba, designating an enemy was not a strategy and threatening language could escalate tensions. She argued that the consequences of such statements ultimately affected civilians and urged the government to explain what the policy and risks were and how it intended to ensure security. She criticized the VVD and argued that politicians should think first before declaring an entire country an enemy. #Nederland #politiek #veiligheid (translated)

Italo stated that Vorcaro had delivered 30 million reais in cash to the Lula Institute to produce a film about Lula.
