@EuroBriefing Should seriously consider (co-)posting on bsky, to which people are escaping en masse;
Sadly, "EuroBriefing" alrdy taken there (by you?), if with zero posts so far

"Sbohem": Farewell!
For anyone out there outside of ČR who cares, @CzechAirlinesCZ in a few days flies its very last flight, having been well-&-truly bought up and set aside as an enterprise;
Was world's 5th-ever commercial airline (1923)
"V sobotu 26. října před desátou večer přistane na pražském letišti letadlo Českých aerolinií z Paříže – poslední samostatný let ČSA," uvádí na svém webu Česká televize.
První let, mimochodem, proběhl 29. října 1923.
Takže sbohem a šáteček. Po 101 letech. 😳

@WillBain31 Re: WorldBizReprt intervw w/Volvo boss, WHY did you not inform listeners @VolvoGroup is fully owned by Geely = CHINESE: His opinions were straight from his CHINESE bosses!
No evidence of this at all; quite the opposite!
- British officials scramble to get anyone to talk with in Brussels incl. PM @keir_starmer recently trying to meet @vonderleyen;
- EU ready to impose stringent conditions for any UK re-join e.g. euro adoption https://t.co/awOE2L4vuh
@TheAtlantic@rosehorowitch Hooray! Congrats to @UChicago, that "last bastion"!
OTOH it seems that pesky Valley-Girl speech habit of excessive use of "like" has penetrated even the upper echelons there
From #Netherlands main biz paper: "In an election yr w/few debates, the one btwn Vance & Walz can be decisive"
No. No it cannot. It's but a sideshow.
My only surprise is that Trump-the-Grifter didn't alrdy pre-empt them with this!
Altho if they're truly "Trump-themed" you know he's receiving some sort of $$ in licensing
In the most ridiculous PR event ever, Putin has Lavrov sign a treaty with the African nation of Burkina Faso about non first use of space weapons.
Burkina Faso has a GDP roughly equivalent to Jeff Bezos' weekly lunch bill.
Go to the 2:00 mark here for what is likely *exclusive* reporting re: #China provinces finding much-needed revenue by arresting entrepreneurs on trumped-up charges, only releasing them for payment (= the "shocking ... story")
@RyanMcbeth@BallouxFrancois Of course it's not cool to block someone, espec when McBeth's "threat" hardly deserves any such respect;
Still: they MUST have to have widened his house's doorframes just to allow passage of his swollen head! https://t.co/sK8uzLJMiU
@RyanMcbeth@BallouxFrancois Take a look again, people: 6 buildings destroyed at the mortal peril of non-combatants: see below UN's own war-crime definitions (based on international treaties);
"Threat" to make a "Ryan McBeth video" - what a pompous ass! https://t.co/ojchvCWBCr
@ewaldeng OK, are you willing to trust the economic judgment of 16 Nobel Econ Prize laureates?
Are histories of Hawley-Smoot (= early-1930s trade war that made Great Depression worse for all) not available in Dutch?
@yilmaznuts @Cappyarmy Ah OK, well here's @nytimes reporting on 4 destroyed apartment buildings + "significant damage to several surrounding buildings" (as #Israel was killing Nasrallah);
Make you feel any better? Do you expect death toll here of innocents to be insubstantial? https://t.co/0qRxe29qsh
@guardianopinion Dishonest piece which ignores fact that it is actually #China (out of IMF framework) which is #SriLanka's biggest bilateral creditor & is MUCH less generous, to include take-over of #Hambantota port facilities https://t.co/4E0RAp2R3A
