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)

I come around the bend and then you see the yellow flag. So you ease off the throttle and brake. But he is in a slow lap, so you don't want to react too abruptly. That can cause you to block or create something. I explained that to the stewards and they understood it," was Verstappen's explanation at Viaplay. #MaxVerstappen #Formule1 #SingaporeGP (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)

Susanne wrote that she had to laugh at a budget debate in which Tijs van den Brink (CDA) unintentionally embarrassed Heera Dijk (D66) according to her. Dijk had said she was happy that financial coverage had been found, but according to Susanne, she could not explain what that coverage consisted of. She wrote that Ingrid Michon, whom she referred to as VVD president, came to Dijk's aid and that VVD minister Van der Burg laughed off the discomfort. Susanne called that partisan and compared the performance of D66 and the VVD in a mocking manner. #BegrotingKoninkrijksrelaties #TweedeKamer #TweedeKamer #Politiek #Humor (translated)

Isa Yusibov wrote that he had shared the photo of Vasyl Shtefko earlier, when Dutch experts claimed in March 2022 that Zelenskiy needed to cede territory for peace. Shtefko lost both his legs in 2004 and registered to defend Ukraine after the Russian invasion, according to Yusibov. He criticized the Dutch peace movement for claiming from a safe position that resistance is pointless and that Ukraine should make peace with Russia. Yusibov wrote that Shtefko stood more morally firm than those who presented capitulation as pacifism. According to him, the peace movement advocated not for peace, but for surrender to Putin, paid for with other people's land, freedom, and lives, in the naïve hope that this would make the world safer. #Oekraïne #Vrede #Verzet (translated)

"Before you know it, something suddenly becomes practice without the Chamber having had the opportunity to debate it. Regardless of whether it is desirable, it is also practically impossible to ask schools to provide a student who speaks Turkish with explanations in Turkish about the material he needs." #onderwijs #leesvaardigheid #taalonderwijs (translated)
