  • Nato considers being ‘more aggressive’ against Russia’s hybrid warfare, including a 'pre-emptive strike'

  • The first steps have long been done by Russia. And it was not in love.

  • BYD sets a record and approaches 20% of the Ukrainian car market

  • Is there a bit more data? What is this source?

    And what is a "non-official BYD car"? Where do they get the numbers from?

  • EU countries back plan to scrap tariffs on US farm, industrial products

    Jump

  • “It is totally clear that this piece of legislation will not just go through without any amendments,” MEP Bernd Lange, the Parliament’s lead negotiator, told Euractiv on Friday.

    We'll see how this ends. Tariffs on US farm products are not a so important as they are around 1% on average, this is next to nothing. Industrial good imports are more pressing issues, although the much bigger problem often here is the flood of cheap imports from China (e.g., steel) rather than imports from the the U.S.

    The parliament will have the final say, and its lead negotiator appears to have a realistic stance imho.

  • Trump to hand Putin Ukraine’s occupied territories

  • Just look at OP's post history. This is not about 'news' but aims to make Europe look bad while supporting Russia and China.

  • If the EU faces a security crisis and a member calls for help, should bomb manufacturers be allowed to make employees work 60 hours a week? "This debate is crazy. No to war" says Belgian MEP

    Jump

  • This Belgium party has been conveying Russian narratives for almost 4 years now, and it refuses to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This is just a Russian puppet.

    Jump

  • Many of these left-wing (and right-wing) groups are paid and supported by Russia and China (just look at Germany's AfD recent verdict, some lawsuits are still ongoing). They convey Russian talking points.

  • Ukraine Faces an Unbearable Choice

    Jump

  • There is no other option than a complete defeat of Russia under Putin. Any other solution will only lead to more war in Ukraine and beyond.

  • The Workers' Party of Belgium (PTB-PVDA) is a Marxist and socialist political party in Belgium.

    The party abstained from the vote condemning the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine in the Chamber of Representatives. According to PTB MP Nabil Boukili, "the diplomatic way is the only possible way to avoid a war".

    This is pure propaganda, and it comes from the East.

    Addition:

    The examination of ... the Workers’ Party of Belgium (PVDA) reveals significant concerns about their alignment with foreign interests, particularly Russian.

    PVDA’s abstentions on key votes condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and its connections with Russian-affiliated organizations raise alarms. The party’s rhetoric often mirrors Russian propaganda, undermining the integrity of Belgian politics. Leaders such as Marc Botenga and Jos D’Haese have engaged in activities that align with Russian interests, casting doubt on the party’s commitment to Belgian sovereignty.

  • Celebrating 20 years of Sino-Dutch environmental research

    Jump

  • Is this the breaking news of the day in Europe or just another advertisement for China to earn the 50 cents?

  • EU top diplomat says Russia's military size, not Ukraine's, should be capped

    Jump

  • I respectfully disagree.

    The only chance for a 'just' and lasting peace in Ukraine and Europe is a a complete defeat of Putin's Russia. Everything else doesn't end the war but will extend it.

    Russia must leave the whole of Ukraine.

  • France will investigate Musk’s Grok chatbot after Holocaust denial claims

  • Good. I hope France and the EU will also investigate Deepseek and other Chinese tech for the denial of the Tiananmen Square Massacre and other atrocities.

  • Marriage of Convenience: How European Far-Right and Far-Left Discovered China

    European far-right and far-left political parties, though ideologically opposed, are finding common ground in their alignments with China, echoing Beijing’s narratives and raising concerns about foreign influence and manipulation ...

    [European far-right parties] prioritize economic pragmatism and national sovereignty. These parties argue that decoupling from China or imposing economic sanctions harms European economies, advocating instead for stronger economic cooperation with Beijing. They view China as a crucial trading partner and a counterbalance to US influence, frequently criticizing the EU for its alignment with Washington on foreign policy issues ...

    Far-left parties ... approach China from an entirely different ideological framework, rooted in critiques of Western imperialism and neoliberalism. They accuse the EU and the US of hypocrisy, using human rights as a geopolitical tool to undermine China while ignoring their own failures. The far-left views China’s state-led economic model as an alternative to the neoliberal capitalist paradigm, lauding its emphasis on state planning and development. Skeptical of militarized policies, far-left groups also advocate for dialogue and cooperation rather than confrontation. They tend to resist efforts to isolate Beijing, framing such moves as exacerbating global tensions and hindering progress on critical issues like climate change ...

  • EU ruling on same-sex marriage does not force domestic legalisation – Lithuanian govt

    Jump

  • EU member states must recognise same-sex marriages performed in other EU countries, as the report also says.

    For a global comparison on same-sex marriage,

    • it is legal in most of Europe except a few countries like Russia, Hungary, Serbia
    • in most countries in the Americas as well as in Australia and New Zealand
    • South Africa is the only country in Africa where it is legal
    • it is legal in Taiwan, Thailand, Nepal, but illegal in all other countries in Asia like China and India

  • German Views of the U.S.-Germany Relationship Turn Sharply Negative

    Jump

  • Oh, that's not only the U.S. but also China, although the German and other European's view on China has turned negative already years ago. The most recent poll afaik is from 2023. The results in brief:

    In Germany, one of the key European players traditionally setting the tone of Sino-European relations, the public opinion appears surprisingly hawkish: while 33 percent of respondents do see China as a necessary partner, 32 percent believe it is a rival. Coupled with 18 percent seeing China as an adversary, precisely one half of German respondents would presumably agree that a far-reaching remaking of the German China policy is needed. Data suggests that the same could also be true for Sweden, France, and Denmark ...

    The readiness to impose sanctions on China if it was to provide lethal aid to Russia seems remarkably high. Importantly, even though the question regarding sanctions highlighted that they could seriously harm Western economies, 41 percent of European respondents agreed that they should be imposed.

    As the U.S. becomes more and more like China, it's no wonder that views on German-U.S. relationship turn negative I would say.

    [Edit to correct typo.]

  • China's CATL breaks ground on huge Spanish battery plant - bringing its own workers

    Jump

  • China always brings its own workers as well as its own supply chains. This is also the reason why China is opposing transparent supply chains. Slave-labour is the rule there (see, for example, Brazil as one recent example). China should not be allowed to build such plant in Europe imo.
