    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    There is one point not addressed in that video: When an European person uses US social media (X, facebook etc.), he will be shown advertising. This is a big as market, so European companies also advertise there. Which means European companies pays for ads showing to people in Europe, but the...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    Refcover? He did not pay all of his debts, How do you know it? Trump has kept any data on that secret … Another word is imposing. It has already been addressed by eclipsenow. Prepared by the Obama administration. … from some followers of him in the US congress. What kind of achievement is...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    Really? I remember Trump went to bankrupt several rimes. It was in German magazines in the 1990s or so. Also, when Trump was elected in 3016, news went through forums that the »Simpsons« TV series had prophesied this. But looking into the details: it was only a joke, that Lisa became president...

    You forgot to mention Alaska - it is on the wish list of Putin's followers in Russia, and Putin does nothing (to say the least) to stop this.

    At that time, there was no arrack from USSR against USA. Russia was a Christian state before the Tsar had to abdicate (half a year later the communists took over), and the state's (Orthodox) church persecute Christians from the »wrong« churches. After the civil war, the Orthodox church was...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    You forgot the so-called email affair in 2016. It was driven by Russia. No, they went to twiiter (aka X). They have almost five times the population, and they have atomic bombs. Based on a election before WWII broke out in China with the 1937 attack from Japan. In Taiwan, the party that has...

    Europe Is Now Alone (well, with US guarantees)

    Which signs? We have a ceasefire in the Black Sea (where the Ukraine has defeated the Russian Navy<, so this is a good thing for Putin), and on infrastructure (Russian attacks on infrastructure are predominantly in the winter, so next to nothing hurt fore Putin) - and the rest of the war goes...

    What Europe needs to do in the face of American betrayal

    I said that there are two scenarios with different bottlenecks, and I see no option how to decide between them, because they leave the same kind of data.

    But not in the USA or Western Europe, as Russia today does. A dwarf like Taiwan with a permanent seat in the security council was irrational, so the seat to the PRC was inevitable. As to Hong Kong, a plebiscite whether the people wanted to join Taiwan or the PRC would have been better. But...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    This will only happen with a sober, well-meaning man. Putin wants to get the USSR back, or as a song in Russia points it out, he want Russian domination from Berlin to Alaska (well, that goes down even to Tsarism). it has to do with the shock of the collapse of communism in 1989, and what...

    Of course not. If Putin were a dictator without nuclear bombs, the NATO might well have invaded into Ukraine to drive Russia out. This is the reason why no-one ever suggested to conquer Russia and remove Putin. This will not happen, no such attempt will be started. How can you do it, When...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    So any European has the right to demand that Trump would take half a dozen members of the democratic party as members of his administration (e.g. minster of justice) … or to make it more like Vance, lets think of an proposal to invite left-socialists (so leftist that you can doubt they will...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    Well, every politician (even the worst one) addressed the facts. The crucial point is which facts he addresses - and which facts he does not address. Vance addressed some shortcomings regarding freedom of speech in Europe, yes. He addressed not the much bigger shortcomings of freedom of speech...

    Vance makes his debut as VP on the international stage at a high-stakes AI summit in Paris

    The post is somewhat offensive. The West does not want to march through Poland to defense Russia, NATO wants to be in Poland (and the Baltic) so it can defend those countries when the Russian army marches in. Putin started the 2022 invasion and justified it that he did not want the Ukraine to...

    Europe Is Now Alone (well, with US guarantees)

    The discussions in Europe, with countries like Spain rather disinterested to do more than lip service, your »if« is something that will not happen. You can turn an adversary into an ally or an ally into an adversary. Trump is good in the second kind of turn. The best allies are those who tell...
