Get into the car in the morning and drive through France into Belgium on the way to the Netherlands. And the only sign of change of country is a sign along the road that I almost missed. Nobody checked our (German) IDs and we did not need a passport.
Living in the #EU, we tend to take it for granted that we can easily cross borders. But it's an wonder, an achievement, something worth fighting for.

Back in November 2023, I wrote about the looming backlash in environmental politics in the EU for Yale E360. Now the Union and its parties are entering the decisive phase of this struggle, both with the ongoing elections, which will result in a new parliament and commission, and with the imminent decision of the Council of member states about the #NatureRestorationLawhttps://e360.yale.edu/features/europe-environment-backlash#EU#Euelection#Europe#climate
Die Mitglieder der EU-Organe werden entweder direkt gewählt oder von den nationalen Regierungen nach Brüssel geschickt. Die Union hat zwar Schönheitsfehler - aber ist sie deshalb auch undemokratisch? Von Christian Feld.
Deutschland zahlt mehr Geld in EU-Töpfe, als es daraus erhält - es ist ein sogenannter Nettozahler. Aber bedeutet diese Rechnung, dass die Deutschen ohne die Europäische Union besser dran wären? Von Ilias Hamdani.

G’morning, all! And a special shout out to the folks here in Ireland: please go out and vote today in the local and EU elections. As lefty as you can. They’re all imperfect systems but at least we have proportional representation here and that’s way better than what most folks have. And we must fight the rise of fascism here and in the EU. This is one – of many – ways we do that. So please, go out and vote.
The forces of righteousness of Ukraine are destined for victory. Putin is mere stassi fluffer in the grand scheme, is deeply entrenched in the world of propaganda and mass murder. His existence is shrouded in falsehoods, with disinformation forming the very fabric of his life. He embodies deception, and the destructive fate of Russia is inevitable.
It is easier for Putin and his allies to create chaos and polycrises worldwide, upheavals in Africa, wars in the Middle East, the Balkans or South America, than it is for the West to maintain order, keep in mind.
A fundamental flaw in international relations theories is the presumption that Putin's actions align with Russia's interests, suggesting that these interests are negotiable. However, Putin's primary pursuit is power and control, not Russia's welfare.
A lone piper in a landing craft lands on Gold Beach, 80 years to the day after the Normandy landings started. The nazi are killing thousands today. Please do not look away.

"Unity that defines history. Today, together with the Allies, France honored the bravery of the soldiers of the Allied forces who landed in Normandy 80 years ago. We remember. Thank you We protect the values of defenders of life."
