There is probably a diplomatic protocol for these kind of situations. In the end, declining the opposing claim would amount to escalation. Conceding the claim would be sign of weakness. Your proposed solution would make fools of both parties. As already mentioned by EUobserver, there is a simple way out for Magyar by inviting Israeli president.

Also mentioned by EUobserver, a similar unconfirmed invitation claim was made previously by Netanyahu after call with Merz. So maybe that is something that Occam’s razor could be applied to.

What’s Your point? It’s the duty of independent media in democracies to uncover false information spread by public servants. EUobserver did well in this respect, don’t You think? Do You prefer that the false information spreads unchecked? If You prefer news without lying politicians, You should probably unsubscribe from all politics-heavy communities including c/europe

Invitation claim was made by Netayahu’s office and was never confirmed by Magyar.

For its part, Magyar’s party declined to confirm the invitation when emailed by EUobserver and by Israeli daily Haaretz on Thursday.

Magyar later said on Facebook only that he had spoken with Netanyahu, without mentioning any invitation.

Netanyahu’s office also declined to reply to Haaretz’s questions.

But Haaretz journalist David Issacharoff said on X that Netanyahu had a record of ICC-busting invitation bluffs. Source

Hungarian Prime Minister-elect Magyar stated his intention to maintain the close relationship between Hungary and Israel, and invited Prime Minister Netanyahu to participate in a ceremony commemorating the 70th anniversary of the Hungarian Uprising. Source

This is an official statement by Netanyahu’s office, which confirms my above-mentioned claim.

It is confirmed that Netanjahu claims that he has been invited by Magyar. This kind of reporting is correct, fair and transparent and should be supported in favor of this type of reporting

EU’s production is sufficient to cover the critical flight infrastructure. That’s also the reason why EU countries don’t stockpile jet fuel. This is just fear-mongering from airlines who fear lower profits during the coming vacation season due to rising fuel costs.

Like this: your name refered from your EU identity card now put into a conscription register meaning you can be called up at any time

How is the call-up supposed to work? Will the government publish the list of names and hope that these people will show up? National identity card is not mandatory and drivers licenses and passports don’t list a postal address. The government would have to access residence registers, but then people may just deregister their residence once they suspect that letters would be sent out.

Due to Schengen agreement a call-up would require a more complex solution. Such solution doesn’t currently exist. Though, some EU states started working on it.

Einen Preis merken die Landwirte aber sofort – wie auch jeder Autofahrer: Der Spritpreis ist sprunghaft angestiegen und gerade jetzt zur Aussaat müssen viele Landwirte viel fahren. Deshalb fordert etwa der Deutsche Bauernverband politische Entlastung und ein vorübergehendes Aussetzen der CO₂-Abgabe auf Agrardiesel.

Die steigenden Kosten dürften daher auch Thema bei der kommenden Agrarministerkonferenz in Bayern sein. Dort wollen Bund und Länder über mögliche Maßnahmen zur Entlastung der Landwirtschaft beraten. Quelle

Der Bauernverband arbeitet also zusammen mit der Politik an der Lösung. Anscheinend wird eine für Bauern günstige Lösung auch ohne Proteste erwartet.

But what they both underline is that the gap in Europe’s digital rulebook — not just the missing definition of influencer, of people who shape what millions of Europeans believe — but identifying structural issues that might need a radically different approach when talking about building European alternatives.

In other words, not a new ‘W’ (that is essentially the same thing as the platform X, formerly Twitter, minus the toxic owner and algorithms), but a totally different approach.

Tornberg puts the way to a solution in structural terms. Platforms that mix community-building and identity-formation with political discourse turn toxic by design.

Different social functions need different spaces, designed for different purposes — not a single commercial platform optimising everything for engagement.

Neves arrives at the same conclusion through the specific case of influencers. Someone you trust about a skin product becomes someone you trust about a vaccine, an election, how to raise your children. The purposes get mixed — not because the influencer set out to mislead anyone, but because that’s how the relationship works, and the platform incentivises.

I find a bit annoying that Reddit/Lemmy was not considered in this opinion piece. Upvotes directed at content rather than at users and subscriptions built around communities and topics rather than around users could IMO solve the discussed problems.

Der Kauf von spanischen Erdbeeren wurden doch bereits in deutschen Medien häufig kritisiert. Außerdem, werden die Erdbeeren aus Spanien meist frisch improtiert und nicht als TK-Ware. Das ist sicher keine Alternative zu den ägyptischen Erdbeeren.

ECB will not develop apps. ECB will offer an API and regulate and license the API access to providers like banks. The providers will then develop apps and other tools that will be accessible to users. They will have to use their own financial resources as stated in the report, which as usual won’t result in open access apps. Possibly, ECB API will be an open banking API.

Nicht alle Journalisten. Euractiv titeliert klar mit "Kennedy Jr. beschuldigt Deutschland fälschlicherweise, Covid-bezogene Strafverfolgungen durchzuführen ". Die schlechte Quellenhygiene auf DACH ist tatsächlich der Grund wieso ich die Community nicht abonniert habe.

When were those LNG contracts between Russia and European countries signed and what is their expiry date? That is the important information that is missing from the guardian report.

I don’t know how old your linked article is, as it’s behind a paywall, but according to different sources aluminum US tariffs on aluminum were already implemented or increased in June 2018.

Trump introduced 25% tarif in March 2025 which was doubled to 50% in June 2025. Another source

does that mean Chinese companies are copying US ones on this?

Trump administration imposed tariffs on EU steel in March 2025. Did China also impose tariffs on EU steel in the meantime? Or, why should chinese companies copy the american companies?

The report is a compendium of unsourced claims made by an executive of an US aluminium company Novelis. There is an older piece by FT with more serious sources. It has no mention of China. However, it says:

Washington has imposed 50 per cent tariffs on imports of steel and aluminium, but not on scrap. As a result, US smelters have increased purchases of European scrap to produce fresh metal and avoid tariffs.

Man darf nicht davon ausgehen, dass sich die Einstellung Amerikas Europa gegenüber ändert.

Das ist möglich, es stellt aber eine Diskussion voraus welche viel mehr berücksichtigt als nur das was “Trump will”. Solche Diskussion fehlt in dem verlinkten Spiegel-Kommentar.

Nur ist Amerika, auch wenn man nur den politischen Aspekt betrachtet, nicht gleichzusetzen mit Trump. Erstens, was Trump heute labert ist nur selten maßgeblich dafür was er später macht. Zweitens, ist Trump kein Monarch auch wenn er das gerne behauptet. Dritens, ist Trump in drei Jahren weg und möglicherweise stirbt er noch früher.
