Joan Larroumec believed that Jean-Luc Mélenchon's success with young people revealed their lack of future prospects. According to him, the current system favored older generations in accessing the best jobs and housing, while young people paid high retirement contributions without being able to hope for a comparable pension. He also stated that the level of taxation made it difficult to become wealthy through work and that inheritance inequalities perpetuated social status gaps. Larroumec said that the threat of artificial intelligence was a major concern neglected by politicians. He cited the United States, where, in his view, the employment of 22-25 year-olds in jobs exposed to AI was already about 19% below its trajectory. He predicted that companies would hire less and prioritize protecting their existing employees, often older, and questioned the future of highly educated young people without jobs. He added that young people were waiting for politicians to offer a vision of a desirable and fair life in France for the coming decades, as well as clear rules of the game. According to him, the old path of studying, finding a good job, buying an apartment, and advancing based on merit no longer existed, and no one on the political scene was living up to those expectations. #jeunesse #inégalités #avenir (translated)

Press Briefs reported that Ségolène Royal referred to Raphaël Glucksmann as an intern after his victory in the social-democratic primary. The media recalled that she stated to L’Obs at the end of September that he had attended a meeting of Nicolas Sarkozy and did not come from the left. According to Press Briefs, Glucksmann was surrounded by several figures from the outgoing majority, including Aurélien Rousseau, Marguerite Cazeneuve, Simon Bernard, and Sacha Houlié, and was presented by some as a "new Macron." The media also mentioned a campaign note revealed by Mediapart in May, which allegedly recommended targeting wealthy, educated, and older voters as a priority, rather than the 18-25 age group, the working classes, and residents of the suburbs. Press Briefs added that an anonymous executive from Place Publique confided to Mediapart in August that Glucksmann had requested to set the voting fee at 15 euros to restrict the electorate, fearing that too many people participating might lead to a loss. The primary reportedly gathered about 121,000 participants, nearly 14 times less than in 2017 and 22 times less than in 2011, according to the media's comparisons with the first rounds of previous socialist primaries. The media contrasted these figures with the LR primary of 2021, won by Valérie Pécresse with 60.95% of the votes among nearly 115,000 participants. She then obtained 4.78% in the 2022 presidential election. Glucksmann, on the other hand, received 66.17% of the votes in a vote counting approximately 121,000 participants, noted Press Briefs, which questioned the significance of this victory in view of the presidential election. #politique #France #primaires (translated)

Ledarsidorna.se wrote that Peter Hultqvist's interview was an attempt to limit the damage and give the Social Democrats a more "hawkish" profile. The writer thought that several proposals in the interview were good: a permanent amphibious battalion in Gotland, re-establishing I 22 in Kiruna, and above all, building a third submarine of the A26 class. The writer claimed that larger combat vessels needed to be built in series of at least three to ensure redundancy, with two operational and one for training or maintenance. As support, the writer referred to his own experience of two years of service as ELF and LFO at PTK Gbg, the test command for Göteborg-class corvettes. Ledarsidorna.se expressed uncertainty about Magdalena Andersson's foreign and security policy stance and wrote that neighboring countries were not impressed by her latest statement, which the writer believed opened the door for reduced engagement on NATO's northern flank. The writer also believed that Pål Jonson should remain as defense minister and called him the best in the position in modern times. Compared to Hultqvist, the writer thought that Jonson had better knowledge of weapons and weapon systems. #svpol https://t.co/ihG7cqkWH5 #säkerhetspolitik #försvar #svenskpolitk (translated)

Furthermore, considering the state of Russian refineries, Russia will soon supply an additional three million tons of diesel fuel!

The review echoed a testimony from a woman who, according to her account, had been raped while another attacker cut off her breasts with a knife. The assaults continued before she was killed, the review stated. The author described the massacre on October 7 as a deep trauma for Israeli society and wrote that this year's memorial ceremony was particularly significant because all surviving hostages had returned from Gaza and the remains of the murdered had been brought home. The review believed the day should have focused on the victims, the survivors, and the relatives. The review criticized Sveriges Radio for instead directing attention towards employee Sami Abu Salem in Gaza. The author also questioned why SVT Rapport, after a segment from the memorial ceremony in Tel Aviv, had presented Gilda Hamidi-Nia's documentary "The World's Most Hated?", which according to the review had been published three days before the anniversary and dealt with how Israeli soldiers were mapped on social media and accused of suspected war crimes in Gaza. The review stated that SVT's live broadcast from the ceremony repeatedly shifted the focus from the victims and their relatives to Israel's warfare, genocide allegations against Israel and the IDF, as well as the war in Gaza. The author argued that the coverage showed a lack of judgment, proportion, and respect, and asked why the victims were not allowed to be at the center of the memorial day. https://t.co/unFDFBluFH #Hamas #Israel #minnesdag (translated)

Ulf Kristersson wrote that Sweden had stood by Ukraine's side since February 24, 2022, and would continue to do so as long as it was necessary. He called for increased pressure on Russia and stronger support for Ukraine. Kristersson lamented the U.S. agreement with Russia regarding diesel supplies and stated that energy revenues were central to the Russian war chest. He indicated that the EU would on Monday adopt its most comprehensive sanctions package to date, with 1,600 sanctions listings targeting the Russian military-industrial complex. He urged more countries to counter the Russian shadow fleet and eventually use frozen Russian assets for the benefit of Ukraine. He also emphasized the need for close coordination within the EU and with the U.S., the U.K., and other international partners. According to Kristersson, the broad political support and public engagement for Ukraine in Sweden were a strength, and Ukraine's freedom and sovereignty remained Sweden's top foreign policy priority. #Ukraina #Sverige #Ryssland (translated)
