I am a candidate who wants to break away from President Emmanuel Macron's politics; a candidate who wants to end Jean-Luc Mélenchon's hegemony over the French left; a candidate who can defeat our long-time enemy – the far-right. We unite our forces to step into the fight and prevent the Trumpists, the masterminds of the coup, the xenophobes, and the demagogues from taking control of the republic. #PrantsusmaaPresidendivalimised #RaphaëlGlucksmann #Vasaktsentristid (translated)

Keijo Kaarisade wrote that when condemning the oppression of women, it was agreed, in his opinion, to speak vaguely about religions and cultures without referring to Islam. He criticized that a member of the National Coalition Party had been assigned to the matter and they themselves had followed along, and said that he would have to explain the issue to the imam again with Petteri. https://t.co/bbPqxHiqBm #naistenoikeudet #uskonto #kulttuuri (translated)

Laura Korpinen wrote that in her opinion Volodymyr Zelensky's term had ended when Donald Trump stated his position, and that Ukraine would make peace. She urged Finnish decision-makers to limit the damage they had already caused and to humble themselves so that Finns would not suffer any more due to the elite's inability to stay away from great power disputes. #Ukraina #rauha #politiikka (translated)

Otto Juote wrote that, in his opinion, the YEL reform would not improve the situation for entrepreneurs during the current government term. He justified his view by saying that the law would not come into effect until 2028 and that it would not apply to any entrepreneur before the parliamentary elections in spring 2027. Juote argued that the timeline was politically intentional: according to him, the National Coalition Party could present itself as the initiator of the reform before the elections while avoiding responsibility for the consequences, which would only begin in the next term. He suspected that a blue-red government formed after the elections could annul or postpone the reform and anticipated that the SDP would demand its cancellation. Juote noted that no invoices based on the new model had yet been sent, nor had implementation decisions been made. According to him, the new parliament could repeal the law or postpone its entry into force with a simple legislative amendment, allowing the practices of the 2023 model to continue. He also questioned the information systems as an official basis for a delay extending to 2028 and assessed that the postponement would give the National Coalition Party the opportunity to leave the implementation of the reform to the next government. Juote claimed that the National Coalition Party did not want to reform YEL during any government term. #YEL #politiikka #uudistus (translated)

CohenTheBarbarian asked whether people had heard of satellite phones, and labeled the debate around it as a pseudocrisis. He wrote that the fact that a person he described as someone who only bothers could not get through, in his opinion, did not mean that the commander-in-chief of the armed forces was unavailable. #satelitnítelefon #komunikace #politika (translated)

Harry Põlda emphasized that their letter to the media did not request the removal of Estonia's director Ott Maaten, as they do not have the authority to do so, and they desire open communication and more modern management in the organization. #Estonia #HeldurHarryPõlda #Teater (translated)

Petteri Tarkkonen wrote that he was not surprised by the decline in support for the National Coalition Party, but by the surprise of the party members. He mentioned that emergency signals had been sent to the party throughout the year 2026 and assessed that it would fall to the second tier if it disregarded the messages with arrogance. https://t.co/8CYiVvBxKD #politiikka #Kokoomus #suomi (translated)

In our opinion, Portugal should choose the F-35 because we consider it the best fighter in the world. We only want a fair opportunity to present our offer. I believe our offer can compete with others, but the final decision will be made by Portugal itself," Rubio warned at a press conference that Russia's war in Ukraine has reached a dangerous deadlock and further escalation of the conflict could lead to a wider military confrontation. #F35 #MarcoRubio #PortugaliKaitse (translated)

"I do not think that a conventional military attack is the biggest threat right now. Rather, hybrid operations and various influence activities, ranging from cyberattacks to migration pressure, are concerning," said security expert Agnia Grigas. "Europe certainly has significant capabilities, but defense spending is not being directed towards the right means and the development of capabilities. A portion of the most important defense equipment still comes from the United States. However, I believe that over time Europe will get there. And honestly, it has to get there," Agnia Grigas stated. #NATO #Venemaa #julgeolek (translated)
