EU farmers have been blocking roads with tractors for two years protesting exactly this kind of deal and von der Leyen's response is a video call celebrating it. "Openness and prosperity for all" means cheap South American imports undercutting European agriculture while Brussels calls it progress.
I would like to thank each of you for your commitment to the EU-Mercosur agreement.

And dear @eucopresident
Together we send a powerful message to the world.
That openness and partnership create prosperity for all.
@esperjack484@castlebrook29@phildstewart And you're still too stupid to understand it? That's almost impressive!
We don't have to make up talking points over here, the truth works just fine😄
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas is convinced that holding the May 9 parade in Moscow without heavy military equipment reflects the true state of the war in Ukraine.
“For the first time in many years, the Victory Day parade in Moscow will take place without heavy military equipment. This says a lot about how the war is going for Russia,” Kallas said.
She added that “grim battlefield statistics show that Russia is losing a record number of soldiers.”
@esperjack484@castlebrook29@phildstewart You don't seem very happy.
What about all the americans complaining about grocery prices, petrol prices etc?
I don't think they agree🤷
Your tourist numbers are not looking good so it may happen before long. That would be bad for you but here you are cheering like a moron😂
@MartinWind31149@castlebrook29@phildstewart i’m living it, don’t need to tell myself anything. oh and come take all the europeans and canadians that ruin the popular spring break spots in florida.
Kaja Kallas:
Russia does not want to engage in any kind of dialogue. We should not humiliate ourselves by saying, "please, we beg you to talk to us."
Instead, we should put them in a position where they move from pretending to negotiate to actually negotiating.
@phildstewart Should be all of the troops, but this is a start, remove some from Italy and Spain too, also the U.k they never helped the U.S with iran.
@castlebrook29@phildstewart therapy for what? we’re almost 2 years in and life has never been better. we don’t need miserable foreigners telling us how to feel about our country. fuck off.
@justfara Here to see the stupid republicans who think the message in the no kings protest doesn't align with applauding Charles' speech about the importance of democracy.
But I have MAD respect for him.
Think about it:
The dude comes over here under the guises of 'repairing or strengthening' the relationship between the US and UK.
HIS REAL AGENDA?
Going in front of Congress and telling them to get their heads out of their asses and start doing something about the Toddler in Chief.
CHUCK GOT GAME. He's a legend.
BREAKING: Donald Trump says he’ll “probably” withdraw US troops from Italy in addition to Germany.
“Why shouldn’t I? Italy has not been of any help to us,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
Pure coincidence this lines up perfectly with Vladimir Putin’s priorities
@GOP_U@hines_wend14462 Why would they fake something that simple though? They're skilled but there's thousands if not millions of people in the world who's able to do this.
@_sh1tstain@McFaul Fuck Europe, they're communist but let's normalise relations with Russia lol😂
I think you have a lot of projection going on mate. If you wanted our help in Iran maybe you should:
Have asked us before you did it
Not have started a trade war with us
Not threaten to invade us
That is definitely one of the major reasons.
They are:
Communist
Arrogant
Condescending
Once they have no use for you they throw you out. They spent the last 2 months laughing in our face during the Iran war while openly sabotaging us, then had the balls to take credit for opening the strait.
If we ask to buy Greenland they send the military, but if we ask for anti-mining ships for Hormuz they tell us to fuck off….
Last year we handled the Houthis for them after their ships were doing rockets from them … and the only reason we know about it was because the messages/chat was leaked - we never took credit for it or asked for anything in return.
In their minds we’re their bitch
And if we dare to mention something about them that we see is a problem, like freedom of speech or immigration, they flip out … they want us to be seen, not heard
Also, the minute we even have a disagreement they run to China and threaten to kick us out … so let’s fucking LEAVE bro. Nobody wants to deal with these ppl.
Deny Ukraine membership in NATO, cut aid to Ukraine, promise Putin Donbas, praise Putin after he helps Iran, and now consider pulling troops out of Germany. How many gifts can Trump give Putin?
@VersoEuropa Hungary has always been Europe.
In the traditional sense more than the West that gave the essence of Europe up for woke politics.
Just because we trade with Russia and China(like many more) and we are nationalis conservatives doesn't mean we left.
That's an odd take on it. For one thing the protests in the parts of Ukraine that did not vote for Yanukovych were as in 2004 coordinated by the US (see link), but its not surprising as these areas were against him from the start. The violent Maidan neo-Nazi led insurrection however was always about bringing down a democratically elected president before he could stand for re-election. Ukraine's constitution was changed after the coup to remove the requirement for neutrality.
As for the other weird comment, there's no comparison between Finland and Ukraine when it comes to strategic interests for Russia. NATO has known that Ukraine is a red line for Russia for a long time. It pushed for expansion into Ukraine knowing that this would cause a conflict.
@prestonsbates@McFaul Russia has conquered around 1.5% of Ukraine over the last three years while Russia is losing 2-2.5 soldiers for every Ukrainian. That's a huge win for a war that was supposed to last 2 weeks.
Imagine how they would be doing if the US didn't betray them.
@McFaul What’s it like to attempt such brazen gaslighting that “Ukraine is winning” and see it backfire so spectacularly AND have no influence on the course of affairs?
