Increasingly intolerant of the intolerant.
"En théorie politique, la théorie du fer à cheval consiste en l'affirmation que l'extrême gauche et l'extrême droite, au lieu d'être en opposition et de constituer les deux extrémités d'un spectre politique linéaire et continu, se ressemblent, en formant les deux extrémités d'un fer à cheval".

Another Greenland. It seems some Committee of the USA Congress passed this Resolution? draft law? proposal? Quite shocking!
I guess other Europeans are not paying in blood and suffering for their formal independence thanks to European Ukrainians who are paying everyday in blood and suffering to protect all Europeans. It seems a very good reason to be very thankful and cheerleading them. About the "big boys",

Why I'm not surprised? Rutte has been always like he seems to be. Strong towards the weak, and weak toward the strong. He showed his true colours during the Euro so called financial crisis.
Words are easy and cheap. And hugs, even cheaper. He supported NordStram I and II, and had that shameful referendum on the Ukraine-EU Association Agreement, and destroyed the votes inmediaty. Very convenient legislation, indeed.
He seems quite comfortable is his "play". I'd say he's a "natural" obsequious towards the stronger, and strong towards the weaker. He has been a "natural" in the last 25 years.
Rutte should, at least, he's paid for that. However, he choose other behaviour during the attack against Spain. Before and during:
"existing perceptions that personal connections matter more than merit". “I'm shocked! Shocked to find that gambling is going on in here".

Before that, other meeting (18.8.2025) was very telling of EU several failures, including who was there and who wasn't: the President of the European Council, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and any non conservative EU Member State Prime Minister. EU Treaties???
are so many that it's difficult to choose some, but if you want something tipical and different from other Mediterranean Regions, they could be "tellinas" (tellin) or different species of "sepia" (some cuttlefish).
