The author wrote that quotes circulating in the information space, which they said suggested Russians were mocking the United States, had made the saga seem like a circus. They argued that the issue remained serious and described the US energy deal with Putin’s Russia as harmful and irrational. #US #RU

The year 2027 is essentially such that, as we have prepared the land, sown the seed, and then it grows. In this case - in 2027, we essentially need to do everything to prepare this soil, to sow the seed. And then there will be 2029, 2030, when we might feel [the result]. This is very important because the biggest problems for balancing the budget will be in 2029, 2030," confirmed the chairwoman of the Saeima's Budget and Taxation Committee, Aiva Vīksna (AS). #Budžets2027 #Ekonomika #Valdība (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)

Elias Linder wrote that a report from the Nobel Peace Prize winner Pillay described October 7 as the beginning of Israel's offensive in Gaza. He compared it to describing September 11, 2001, as the day the U.S. attacked Afghanistan. https://t.co/eCsX1YGFIC #fredspris #Gaza #konflikt (translated)

The author wrote that the voters were strongly polarized and that a majority government would require at least one party to govern together with a party that over 90 percent of its own voters had not stated they wanted to see in government. https://t.co/YxlsAkCMfF #svpol #politik #regeringsbildning #SE (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party, unlike most other parties on the red-green side, had not campaigned primarily with the message of saying no to the Sweden Democrats (SD). According to her, the party had not repeatedly talked about an SD government, presented proposals for twelve SD ministers whom she described as more or less uncouth, or warned that Jimmie Åkesson could become prime minister. She wrote that the Left Party also believed that SD was wrong, but that voters needed to know what policies they were voting for. Gabrielsson thought that the negative campaigns and the political representatives' approach to each other had made it confusing to distinguish between SD and the other Tidö parties. She emphasized that the rhetoric had come from, among others, Ebba Busch, Simona Mohamsson, and moderate ministers, and that the politics had been presented jointly. According to Gabrielsson, the Left Party had therefore primarily focused on the policies it wanted to change. A campaign solely against SD risked, she wrote, appearing to target a group of people and giving someone the opportunity to adopt a victim role. She also believed it was contradictory to claim to be able to collaborate with everyone except SD, or preferably with the Tidö parties without SD, while campaigning on a different policy. Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party had campaigned on its own policies and with Magdalena Andersson as a candidate for prime minister, well anchored in the red-green side. Therefore, according to her, the Left Party should not have to settle for having achieved a no to SD. #politik #Val2024 #rödgröna (translated)

Ledarsidorna.se questioned whether Magdalena Andersson was suitable as prime minister and government builder. The writer described their personal image of her as fundamentally positive but criticized her actions in security policy issues. The writer pointed out that Andersson had said in spring 2022 that Swedish NATO membership would destabilize the region before she reportedly changed her stance when Finland moved toward membership. Ledarsidorna.se also referred to an interview in Politico where Andersson allegedly wanted a future government to place greater importance on "the global south." The writer claimed that this aligned with Vladimir Putin's interests and highlighted Russia's actions towards the Baltic states. The post also mentioned that Morgan Johansson, according to Ledarsidorna.se, had stated that the Social Democrats wanted to pause an association agreement with the EU. The writer asserted that this would undermine Sweden's and NATO's northern flank defense capability, as Israeli Elbit Systems was the main supplier of communication systems to the Swedish and Finnish armies. Ledarsidorna.se also criticized that five Social Democratic members of the European Parliament had voted against a resolution to counter Islamist entryism in the EU. The writer claimed, referencing their sources, that the decision had been made by the Social Democrats' executive committee on Sveavägen 68. The post stated that Andersson and the committee had a different assessment of the Muslim Brotherhood than French and German intelligence and security services, without providing the basis for this. The writer concluded by asserting that there were good reasons to ask whether Andersson wanted what was best for Sweden and the Swedish people. #svpol #Sverige #politik #Socialdemokraterna (translated)

Baptistão described the new design as one of the greatest failures in the history of the saga and said it seemed unfinished. He compared the previous stage, which he associated with joy, football, and happiness, with the current one, which he linked to sadness, jail, and gambling addiction. He also stated that those responsible should be judged criminally. https://t.co/UswXf11zOw #Fracaso #Diseño #Fútbol (translated)

The writer urged the parties to do their job or let the voters decide in a snap election. A month after the election, the four parties that the writer claimed had won gathered in the same room for a couple of hours, but the writer argued that the meeting was not about government cooperation. The writer also demanded that all should resign. https://t.co/PLmtPCfBwe #SvenskPolitik #Val2022 #Demokrati #SE (translated)

Emilie Jäger wrote that she was proud to work at B.T., which she described as a free and independent media outlet with a civic foundation. According to her, this was reflected both in the newspaper's debate section and in the choice of topics. She believed that Denmark needed different media and mentioned Information, Politiken, DR, and B.T. as examples. Jäger wrote that she often received calls from dissatisfied politicians and their advisers, and occasionally even ministers. However, she had not experienced internal pressure from bosses regarding her political beliefs or about covering anyone in a certain way. She believed that B.T. also adhered to fundamental journalistic principles of hearing all parties, faithfully representing their viewpoints, and describing facts. According to Jäger, sources she interviewed both within and outside Christiansborg were sometimes dissatisfied, but her impression was that sources on both the right and left generally felt professionally treated. She also wrote that her management and colleagues, along with her, had turned a large deficit into a million-dollar surplus, while the newspaper played an important role in Danish democracy. #journalistik #demokrati #BorgerligtMedie (translated)

In my opinion, the best policy is to prepare in advance. Sometimes it is better to exercise even excessive caution, rather than throwing up your hands and blaming something for not working after an incident. It is better to take additional safety measures in time to prevent risks than to react too late. The decision to involve armed forces to assist in the defense of Lithuania's border with Russia has been made by responsible state administration institutions reaching a consensus, Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda stated in an interview with the portal "15min.lt". #Lietuva #drošība #robeža (translated)
