13·2 days agoYeah, I guess this is just political theater or some sort of intimidation. This month, Russia also issued an arrest warrant for ICC judges. I am not a legal expert, but has probably no real consequence as long as you don’t travel to Russia.
In October this year, the Ukrainian Defence Ministry has released an intercepted audio recording of Colombian mercenaries serving in the Russian forces.
In the intercepted exchange, one of the field commanders gives an order in Spanish. Quote as translated by Defence Intelligence of Ukraine:
“When fog or mist conceals their identities, they must eliminate all people who are enemies: on motorbikes, on bicycles, women and children, women and children.” – Source

1·2 days agoRussia has intensified its disinformation campaign also in Poland with one goal being to undermine Polish support for Ukraine.
I can only assume that this post is part of this campaign. Shines a bad light on Poland, suggests (falsely) that Poland’s willingness to support Ukraine decreases.

If I am not mistaken I have already read here that the world socialist website is just spreading Chinese Communist Party propaganda and nothing else. They are even warmongering servants of China supporting Beijing aggression against Taiwan and similar actions.
I am not sure, but I assume what @Riddick3001 wants to say with their comment is that by buying Chinese products, we help them funding the war as China is using it to, for example, help build weapons. At least that’s my interpretation of the comment.
The Ten Stages of the Russian Genocide in Ukraine
Russia has committed every war crime and crime against humanity, including relentless, indiscriminate attacks against civilians, systematic torture, mass rape, and the forced transfer of Ukrainian children to Russia.
We must note that the Chinese party-state is a decisive enabler of Russia invasion of Ukraine and has been increasingly aggressive against its Asian neighbours.
That aside, generally accusing all Europeans of ‘warmongering’ without naming the governments that are responsible for the crimes against humanity committed by Russian soldiers in Ukraine and the hybrid warfare activities orchestrated by the Russian government across the European continent and its allies ignores the reality and discredits Yanis (and you) completely.
TL;DR:
The decision came after a similar EU proposal failed on the morning of Friday, December 19 … British officials said London would not unilaterally use frozen Russian assets to aid Ukraine, as any such move was intended to be carried out only in close coordination with Australia, Canada, and the EU.
In the meantime, even Reform UK lawmakers urge the UK government to use Russian frozen assets to back Kyiv’s defence against Russia.
This is anti-Western propaganda, and this is not an intellectual. Yanis has been conveying the same anti-European rant (Europe gets it all wrong, it should not rearm, the West is doomed, capitalism is bad) for years now. Together with the late Noam Chomsky and Jeff Sachs he spreads narratives that play into the hands of Russia, China, and other autocracies by simply criticizing Europe and the West.
Yeah, a fractured right with a more than troublesome far-right group and a ruling Socialist party in the midst of corruption scandals and allegations of sexual harassment.
Are the any alternative parties for Spaniards to vote?
Sure, we need to secure our system. But there are malign state actors - particularly Russia and China - attacking European systems. And their interference is not limited to cyber activities.

Do you have any information or sources for your claims or is it just “Germany bad”?
Yeah, the number of bankruptcies in Germany are more or less and the same level as they were before the pandemic, as the stats show. We see similar developments in all countries for which there are reliable public data.
3·6 days agoI wrote a similar comment just today in another thread, but it fits also here: Do yourself a favor and stay away from wherever you get such comparisons and get a life.
Journalists in Western democracies frequently pose questions to “world leaders” in press conferences and interviews, and these questions are not ‘screened’ or something like that.
The most obvious is Taiwan.
Which neighbors is it threatening?
Taiwan, India, Japan, Nepal, Philippines, Russia, just to name a few. They demand territory from more or less all its neighbours, on land and at sea.
I have seen no such reports
You need to read other sources than the .ml communities. That’s your problem. Just read independent media and get a life.
Europe bad, ha?
This was clear from the very beginning, all analysts said that (including those from Kpler). Neither US exports nor EU demand can support the envisioned 750 billion over three years by any reasonably expected scenario.
During his first term as US president, Trump also made an energy deal with China that was similarly delusional. I don’t remember the numbers, but in the end China bought a small fraction of what was initially ‘agreed’ upon. Also back then, it was clear that China would never have the required demand to live up to the agreement. These things are more political theatre to celebrate a deal than anything else imo.
