Ma este Európa szíve erősebben dobog Magyarországon. Europe’s heart is beating stronger in Hungary tonight.

Is this what good news feels like?

Strategic genius by US adminstration: 1. US tells Europe loudly to take care of Ukraine itself (after US negotiated Ukrainian nuclear disarmament in early 1990s). 2. US openly supports Viktor Orban whose electoral campaign is build on sabotaging and blocking EU help for Ukraine. 3. Enjoy!

Netanyahu’s claim that recognizing Palestine rewards Hamas is baseless: both Hamas and Netanyahu reject the two-state solution, and recognition pushes back against that.

Trump: This is somebody nobody else can do. We will get the drug prices down… 1000% 600% 500% 1500%. Numbers that are not even thought to be achievable.

💥🇭🇺 New polls show opposition leader Péter Magyar with a brutal lead in Hungary. Viktor Orbán’s allies claim the polls are fake—but their frantic efforts to blame Magyar for every problem suggest they’re scared. 🗳️Just 10 months to go until Hungary’s parliamentary election.

Morning of the NATO summit: two key train lines in the Netherlands are down (Amsterdam-Schiphol; The Hague- Rotterdam) due to power cuts caused by “unidentified” fires along the tracks. Accidents? Maybe. But we see similar “incidents” all over Europe, and no clue of scale. nos.nl/artikel/2572...

Your usual reminder that something like 150,000 people can nominate whomever they want for the Nobel peace prize. Any legislator globally or even an associate professor of history at a fifth-tier university gets to add anyone to the list. Countries, on the other hand, don't get to nominate.

During the talks, Medinsky stated: "We don't want war, but we're ready to fight for one, two, three years—however long it takes. We fought Sweden for 21 years. How long are you ready to fight?" — Oliver Carroll, Foreign Specialist at The Economist.

Kann man es so zusammenfassen: Wir fordern jetzt Russland auf, zu dem Treffen zu kommen, das Putin selber vorgeschlagen hat? Und falls es keine Fortschritte gibt, drohen wir mit den Sanktionen, die wir eigentlich schon jetzt verhängt haben müssten?

The difference between Chancellor Friedrich Merz and his predecessor cannot be stronger. He has been in office for merely 4 days, but already acts like a pro. German responsibility and leadership is back.

United. For justice. For lasting peace. For prosperous Europe. In the heart of freedom.

Agree with Frank: at least German MPs still have the guts to let Merz know that they don’t like him and some of his politics and style and therefore won’t necessarily give him an easy time. If only some GOP members ever stood up to Trump.

Romania, INSCOP poll: Presidential election Simion (AUR-ECR): 36% (new) Antonescu (PSD/PNL/UDMR-S&D|EPP): 22% (-43) Dan (*-RE): 21% (new) Ponta (*-S&D): 17% (new) Lasconi (USR-RE): 3% (-12) ... +/- vs. Last election result Fieldwork: 4 May 2025 Sample size: 2,455 ➤ europeelects.eu/romania

Within seven weeks of taking office Merz will take part in EPC, EU-UK, G7, NATO, and European Council summits, plus plenty of bilateral visits and other pieces of pomp and pageantry. The world will get to know Germany's chancellor fairly quickly.

Merz har presenterat ministrarna från CDU som förväntas ta över nästa vecka. Ingen överraskning med utrikesminister - Johann Wadephul. Tidigare kritisk mot Merz, för ett starkt EU och utökat stöd för Ukraina. Ett val som både von der Leyen och Zelenskyj kan vara nöjda med.
