Tnx for your elaborate reaction.

I hope a new Gvment can (slowly) help Hungary in a more " democratic" direction.

Concerning the Jewish families in Budapest, I imagine that similar constituent pressures might be found in several countries. Doesn’t help finding a solution, nor does it attribute to take a clear stance against Bibi as a country.

Though Netanyahu should be send to the ICJ in The Hague, but ofc Israel, USA and others don’t recognise the court.

15% tariffs

…is currently just a rumor. Everything is in a state of flux. And still, an agreement with Trump is just a piece of (toilet) paper, as he has proven repeatedly. So, let’s see how and if that all plays out.

Also, if things get worse with the current pollling in mind, he’ll probably lose the Congress. Either in Nov 2026, or maybe even before if he also loses some of his Rep. backing during the next months.

the incoming govt

You got some inside knowledge on Magyar and how his Gvment is expected to be for Hungarians?

roman salute

Omg. that’s really some very dark humor here. You have surpassed my fucked up mental association spectrum. Chapeau. ^^

Some context ap link

Deaths of ethnic Azerbaijanis rounded up by police for decades-old murders in a Russian city. The crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines passenger jet that Baku blamed on Moscow. Growing ties between Azerbaijan and Turkey, along with waning Russian influence in the troubled South Caucasus region.

These are among the factors that have led to the escalating tensions between Russia and Azerbaijan, the oil-rich Caspian Sea country where President Ilhan Aliyev has been in power since 2003 – almost as long as the 25-year rule of Vladimir Putin in Russia.

don’t know much about what’s going on…

According to Japan Times, it started with a failed crop ( they crop only once a year), higher demand and supposedly the Japanese Gvement has loosened their rice reserve to lower the prices, but it still needs to reach the market.

Also, alternatively this link explains its due to the rice acreage reduction policy by the Abe Admin.

That’s" being on a high"- awareness . Look at his eyes.

Yeah, India could be considered an outlier in BRICS:

" Perhaps the major problem to the BRICS is India. India is an outlier,” said Paulo Nogueira Batista Jr., a Brazilian economist who left the International Monetary Fund in 2015 to lead the New Development Bank, founded by the BRICS members in Shanghai.(…) other observers were calling India a Trojan horse within the BRICS, implying that its close relationships with the United States and Israel were sabotaging the larger group."

But so could any other BRICS+ country , depending in their (geo)political position, and many other Western or other international institution.

I do acknowledge though, that India’s stance against Chinese neo imperialism, and it’s recent military conflicts, sets it apart from other members

yes

It’s time to start looking for other trading

The EU has been doing that. But it’s difficult to replace a 30T economy, representing 15% of the global aggregate of the world’s GDP.

With Tariffs, the outcome will always be a big loss worldwide. For some more than others.

Add: It’s already been harming USA manufacturers according to this AP article ,

" US manufacturers are stuck in a rut despite subsidies from Biden and protection from Trump. (…).But the factory investment spree has faded as the incoming Trump administration launched trade wars and, working with Congress, ended Biden’s subsidies for green energy. Now, predicts Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, “manufacturing production will continue to flatline.”

Yes, culprits get automacally placed in prison. It’s fully automated with AI.

It’s all very complicated and uncertain, and I understand only a bit of it, but basically yes.

Are there any insights on what the policy

Afaik, they’d like a more moderate leader.

These are quite recent developments. If you want some updates & insight Lei’s Real Talk - YouTube channel is recommended. Also, consider that all news from China is heavily censored, and “good info” is hard to get by.

There is a power struggle going on in the CCP and Xi is losing.

Yes, and acccording to the most recent news/rumors a new CCP leader is expected to be announced rather sooner than later. Most probably next 21st official Party Congress (link).

It’s needed to appease Ursula’s little friends

Not really, NATO and EC( Ursula) are two different entities. She’s facing charges, for her vaccine deals. Nothing to do with defense.

Opinion article. Also they missed many NATO Top nuances, like the whole political game. But yes, NATO members in Europe have been spending more, and more defense is and was needed.

Sketchy newspaper site run by a sketchy ceo and owned by a foundation which is run by a sketchy non-profit foundation.

OP also only posts his news from the one specific news site.

where have I heard this before? *cough* Atomic waste *

They have started to relocate hundreds of thousands of barrels containing nuclear waste from nuclear plants somewhere at 3 km depth in the Atlantic to check their containment integrity. I guess more and more surprises will turn up, as a result of our past dumping solutions. I believe they have also dumped some, in or near the area of an ancient primal forrest in Poland

But you are right. How will we contain all this waste?
