This bears no relation to reality. Even 🇺🇸 intelligence publicly stated that there were no signs of 🇮🇷 developing nuclear weapons. I’m sure 🇮🇱 intelligence behind closed doors said the same.

The world’s attention is elsewhere, but the far-right ministers in the 🇮🇱 cabinet are very deliberately moving forward with their measures against Palestinians in the West Bank. The world should react. @crisisgroup

The 🇺🇸 bloc on the latest Anthropic model has turbocharged the debate about 🇪🇺 digital sovereignity. There are no easy answers, but here are some reflections on the issue worth reading. @ecfr ecfr.eu/publication/get-over…

It remains to be seen what this means, but it sounds like a different regime for the Hormuz Strait than the one before the 🇺🇸🇮🇱 war.
JUST IN: Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei on the Strait of Hormuz: “According to the MoU, Iran and Oman will be responsible for managing passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is not seeking to impose tolls. However, in return for navigation services, environmental protection, insurances and other maritime services, Iran will collect the necessary fees."

Most significant day today with the opening of the first cluster in the 🇪🇺 enlargement negotiations with 🇺🇦 and 🇲🇩 . Significant challenges lite ahead, but if the will is there on all sides membership by 2030 should be possible. @MartaKosEU

On Friday we will see the details of the 🇺🇸 🇮🇷 interim agreement. It’s obvious that key issues remain to be settled, and others have been left out. But if Hormuz opens up and the ceasefire holds it should all be welcomed. haaretz.com/israel-news/isra…

The Lavra in Kyiv 🇺🇦 is a jewel of Christianity of profound cultural and historical significance. There is simply no way Putin 🇷🇺 can justify tonight’s strike against it.

Several new 🇺🇦 drone strikes against unprotected 🇷🇺 oil storage facilities today. This is starting to have a substantive impact.

The dark past should not be forgotten. 🇪🇪
In the early hours of this day 85 years ago, thousands of families across Estonia were woken by a knock on the door, only to be torn from their homes and deported to Siberia by the Soviet regime. During the June 1941 deportations, around 10,000 Estonians, together with tens of thousands of Latvians and Lithuanians, fell victim to Soviet terror. As we honour the victims of these crimes, we must also remember that Russia is using many of the same methods in Ukraine today — deporting children, terrorising civilians, and attempting to erase Ukrainian identity. History teaches us that crimes left unpunished lead to further aggression. It is time to hold Russia accountable.

AI security issues must be taken seriously, but an arbitrary measure like this will put in question reliance on 🇺🇸 LLM’s and cause numerous actors to look more closely at 🇨🇳 open source solutions. anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

In this episode of #GZEROEurope, @carlbildt reflects on how Russia's war in Ukraine has lasted longer than World War I and the role an underachieving military campaign and international politics have played in putting pressure on Putin.

I still fail to understand what this ”overcapacity” really means. The share of exports in the 🇪🇺 economy is actually larger than its share in the 🇨🇳 economy, although not by much. Overcapacity? Can anyone define the term in a way that makes sense? euobserver.com/220918/inconc…
