Joan Larroumec presented the tensions between France and Germany as a result of increasing competition, particularly in the defense industry. He indicated that Berlin planned military spending of €108 billion in 2026, compared to €57 billion for Paris, and nearly €140 billion in 2027. According to him, Germany was seeking to use these expenditures as a lever for economic transformation, while its historical industrial model was weakened. Larroumec notably cited the decline in German exports to China, which he claimed fell from €106 billion in 2022 to €81 billion in 2025, as well as a reduction of 142,400 jobs in the German automotive industry since 2019. He also wrote that German defense start-ups had received $3.5 billion in investments in 2026, compared to $375 million in France, and that Berlin had concluded a framework agreement with Helsing and Stark that could reach €4.3 billion. He estimated that this strategy heightened rivalries between the two countries and jeopardized their joint programs. He reported that Paris and Berlin acknowledged on June 8 that the SCAF could not be successfully executed, and that the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces announced Germany's abandonment of the MGCS tank program. He also mentioned competition in drones, artificial intelligence, and space, where, according to him, Germany was seeking to reduce France's position. Finally, Larroumec argued that France's financial difficulties limited its ability to invest in defense and risked weakening its industry. He stated that French and German interests were becoming increasingly misaligned and that this situation could lead to chaotic episodes in Europe. #France #Allemagne #Défense (translated)

Philippe Murer claimed that Germany had left the Franco-German tank project after withdrawing from the SCAF aircraft program. According to him, France had thus lost 10 years of development for the successor to the Leclerc tank. He also argued that France risked losing control of Nexter, the manufacturer of tanks and the Caesar gun. KNDS was 50% owned by the French state, he wrote, but a new plan accepted by the Élysée aimed to reduce the French share to 40%. Murer accused the Macronists of betrayal and described the Franco-German defense cooperation as a disaster for France. He called for France to regain full ownership of Nexter and demanded the dissolution of the KNDS joint venture. #France #Défense #IndustrieMilitaire (translated)

David Lisnard believes that the SCAF and MGCS programs, launched in 2017 by Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel to develop the future combat aircraft and tank, are strategic and industrial dead ends. He criticized French leaders for prioritizing Franco-German cooperation without first verifying the convergence of military interests, technological mastery, and the distribution of industrial responsibilities. According to him, a high-level Franco-German seminar held on October 7 would have revealed a different method: starting from the needs of the armed forces and industrial interests, then allowing companies to build viable cooperations before giving them, if necessary, a political translation. Lisnard stated that during the negotiations on the MGCS, Germany was preparing for the succession of the Leopard 2, notably with the Leopard 3 project, and that the delay created a military vulnerability. He called for a break with a conception of European defense that, according to him, confuses cooperation with the dilution of sovereignties. He advocated for a distribution of roles in which the political power sets ambitions and means, the armed forces define their needs, and the industries develop solutions and partnerships. Lisnard also urged for the immediate preparation of the renewal of French ground combat capabilities, beyond the simple replacement of the Leclerc, notably by integrating armored vehicles, drones, robotics, artificial intelligence, and data management. He estimated that this required investments in industry, a recovery of public finances, and a more efficient use of military credits. Finally, he accused the current government of having caused France to lose valuable years and argued that the issue concerned its ability to prepare for future conflicts, ensure the security of the French people, and defend the nation. #Défense #Souveraineté #Coopération (translated)

Cerfia reported that the chief of staff of the French armed forces, General Fabien Mandon, had announced that Germany had decided to withdraw from the Franco-German Future Main Battle Tank (MGCS) project. The media described this decision as a major setback for military cooperation between Paris and Berlin, four months after the failure of the SCAF fighter jet project. #CoopérationMilitaire #France #Allemagne (translated)

Daniele Giovanardi claimed to have received information from an internal source who had worked closely with the leaders of large organized retail about the difficulties in the sector. According to the source, the warnings from TRILLY APS and consumer demands for transparency had led some supermarkets to request guaranteed supplies of meat and eggs from unvaccinated animals. Giovanardi mentioned AIA as one of the companies that, according to him, would be struggling due to the lack of traceability to the shelf. He also stated that large retail had sought help from industry associations and the Ministry of Health and that a social media campaign was being prepared to reassure consumers. Giovanardi said that TRILLY APS was requesting analyses of meat and labeling guidelines, inviting consumers to continue asking questions to supermarkets and to spread the FAQs and leaflets of the association. #TrasparenzaAlimentare #BuioInEtichetta #TrillyAPS #ProgettoPilotaH5 #LibertàDiScelta #NienteAttiDiFede #TrasparenzaAlimentare #LibertàDiScelta #BuioInEtichetta (translated)

Il parere di DANIELE CAPEZZONE in collegamento con #Filorosso sul tetto agli stranieri in classe. "Oggi viene fuori che nel 1990 un Ministro dell'Istruzione, che si chiamava Sergio Mattarella, aveva fatto una circolare del medesimo tenore. Tutti i giornali che in queste 48 ore hanno gridato "che vergogna" adesso ci potete incartare il pesce perchè domani saranno in un atroce imbarazzo". "La sinistra ci ha fatto una testa così in questi anni sul patriarcato però se il patriarcato è islamico e metti una bambina dentro uno scafandro va bene improvvisamente!" @Capezzone #Politica #Istruzione #Immigrazione

Gaia Piccardi è una Lucarelli che non ce l’ha fatta. Una cinica senza arguzia. Una snob senza eleganza. Vi risparmio il link all’articolo per non regalarle mezza visualizzazione. Sappiate che non c’è mezza parola sul suo valore in campo e quello delle altre tenniste citate. Il metro di valutazione è la capacità di fare marchette social, imbonire stampa e sponsor con l’esuberanza. Il dubbio che non possa riuscire a “promuovere e vendere il prodotto chiamato Wta sugli scaffali dello sport internazionale”. La necessità di “fare un salto di qualità alla narrazione del personaggio.” Deprimente. Ridicolo. Deprimente l’ho già detto? Deprimente. #tennis #rybakina #tennis #sport #femminile

Buon mercoledì dal Wildberries e dalla Raffineria di Ryazan (ebbene sì, doppio colpo)! Il complesso Ryazan/Tyushovo si trova(va) nell’industriale park “Ryazansky”, vicino alla M-5, nel Rjazan’ district, area di Tjushovo, e funziona come distributive center aperto 24 ore su 24. Le fonti locali lo descrivono come un magazzino molto grande: nel 2024 dei lavori di ampliamento avrebbero portato la superficie complessiva a circa 173 mila m2, con capacità di stoccaggio raddoppiata e fino a 14 milioni di articoli sugli scaffali. La raffineria di Ryazan, gestita da Rosneft, è invece uno dei principali impianti di raffinazione russi ed è indicata come la più grande della regione. È in funzione dal 1960 e produce una gamma ampia di derivati: benzine AI-92 e AI-95, diesel, bitume e altri prodotti petroliferi. Le fonti la descrivono anche come un impianto di grande capacità, con circa 13-17 milioni di tonnellate annue a seconda dell’anno e della misura considerata, e con un peso rilevante nella raffinazione russa complessiva. Nel marzo 2024 la raffineria fu presa di mira da droni e scoppiò un incendio, secondo il governatore regionale e varie testate. Nel novembre 2025 Reuters ha riferito che la raffineria aveva sospeso la lavorazione del greggio dopo un altro attacco, con stop della principale unità di distillazione. A maggio 2026 è stato riportato un nuovo attacco con grande incendio e fermo dell’impianto, con conferme anche da Reuters e altri media. #Wildberries #Ryazan #Raffineria

Uno studio avverte che il prolungato blocco delle navi nello Stretto di Hormuz potrebbe favorire il biofouling, trasformando gli scafi in vettori di specie invasive che, una volta riprese le rotte commerciali, potrebbero diffondersi in tutto il mondo, rappresentando una minaccia ecologica ed economica. #Biofouling #SpecieInvasive #NavigazioneMarittima
