  • Can Europe break free of Visa and Mastercard? MEPs stall digital euro

    Jump

  • They don't want European competition and especially no European power in whatever shape.

  • French politician told a group of Russians: "My party will make sure Ukraine can never join NATO or the European Union. NATO is a military alliance just seeking trouble"

  • Thank you, the evil this man spreads is not shared enough. He's at least as hateful and toxic as Le Pen, both terrible for France and Europe. We can thank them both for another delay with the Mercosur deal, just to give a recent example. Putin puppets is just the start of their evilness.

  • oh, these extremist dudes always love a strong man that shouts loud and aggressively.. left or right, the psychological mechanism is exactly the same, the end result also: violence and racism.

  • The rapporteur is Spanish but I'm quite sure most of the far right votes come from elsewhere.. hell, these days they come from all over the continent anyway. The trick is, once again, vote for EP elections and vote for pro-EU parties only. Far-right or -left is made of Russian puppets dancing to Chinese marches...

  • Iceland to hold EU referendum 'in the coming months', PM says

    Jump

  • True, but they're part of Schengen, symbolically and also from a human perspective, a much more powerful policy than fisheries or customs..

  • Filmmakers defend Berlin festival chief in Gaza row

    Jump

  • If Germany is complicit what is Syria then? Easy to protest in free countries, but I don't see any friend of Gaza around the Middle East.

    Jump

  • Iceland is already more integrated in the Union than the UK ever was. They should have a say on the discussions that very directly influence them. Same for Norway btw. 

  • The EU targets Guinea for visa punishment: a sign of what is to come

    Jump

  • A country refusing the return of its own citizens, no this is not ok. And on the other hand, being able to deport foreigners is part of the sovereignty of any country, and migrating to countries like Guinea is not, contrary to the general assumptions, easy, because those countries are very aware of their sovereignty.

    Speeding, jaywalkers and imported ‘clunkers’: Romania in safety drive to improve EU’s deadliest roads

    www.theguardian.com /world/2026/feb/18/romania-improve-safety-roads-crack-down-dangerous-driving

  • The EU targets Guinea for visa punishment: a sign of what is to come

    Jump

  • The tone of the article seems to suggest that refusing the deportation of your own citizens is a legitimate move by Guinea, it's not. So the EU replies in the same currency.. which I find perfectly proportional, contrast to what the newspaper suggests.

  • The size of Portugal compared to Spain

    Jump

  • Smaller on the map, bigger on the heart and much older nation and state. Portugal nunca será Espanha.

  • Fucking based

    Jump

  • Same for Portugal, but in this case the American accent is from Brazil... 😅

  • Munich Airport apologises after snow chaos leaves 600 passengers stuck inside aircraft overnight

    Jump

  • I mean it wasn't 24h, I believe for most was around 6h, but during the night.. people on flights that should last less than 2 hours in some cases... Terrible that an airport like Munich doesn't have a plan for such incident and sorry for pointing it out a stereotype but once again a very German way of (non) reacting to an unforseen problem. This would have not happen in most countries.

  • Hungary says it will block a key EU loan to Ukraine until Russian oil shipments resume

    Jump

  • Nobody is perfect and I don't expect any politician to be. He's for sure better than Orban and I would definitely vote for him if I was Hungarian, because I do believe in avoiding greater evils. That said, his positions on Ukraine or EU integration are far from ideal. 

    The article is worth looking for a paywall remover ;)

  • Trump Punches Canadian Olympian in Bizarre AI Hockey Fantasy Post

    Jump

  • This alone should be more than enough to declare him senile and unfit to be president, no? There's no mechanism in the US to remove a senile president? It's literally danger to keep someone senile in power even in small countries with no nukes, in the US it's suicidal on a planetary scale. 

  • Visa-only Games highlights Europe's payments headache

    Jump

  • I saw a post on LinkedIn of someone claiming that it should be easy for the European Banks to develop a common brand, Wero for instance, for debit cards. Europeans love debit anyway, so that would be great.

    Develop a credit card system would be more complicated and costly, he argued. He knew about the technicalities of the issue..

    I would love a Wero debit card.
