@carlbildt Typical reaction for narcissists and psychopaths who are contradicted in front of others.

The final nail in the coffin - the Trump administration is the enemy of the EU. https://t.co/K0TF5NfIPr

@alexstubb Putin tar inte Europa på allvar, ser inte Europa som en respektfull förhandlingspart. Det måste ändras på ett språk Putin förstår. Europa måste till förhandlingsbordet istället för USA.

Brevet visar att fallet Trump bör hanteras av den amerikanska sjukvården och att kongressen måste agera på den grundvalen. EU bör behandla saken som ett USA-problem att landet har en galning som president. https://t.co/SeJkFj3yXH

@carlbildt With a narcissist like Vance, it will not be easy to find a good solution for Greenland, Denmark and NATO.

Stephen Miller and Dmitry Medvedev, pretty similar types of agitators.

Venezuela has the world's largest oil reserves, significantly more than the United States. Furthermore, Venezuela has exactly the type of oil ("heavy crude") that the United States lacks and needs.

@SwedishPM Alla säger att pressen på Ryssland måste öka. Visst, men hur kan det vara så svårt att få fram mera vapen till Ukraina?
Köp från Kina!

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Regarding Russia’s attacks against European countries: Russia is testing their ability to defend themselves and trying to influence societies so people begin to ask: “If we can’t protect ourselves, why should we keep supporting Ukraine?” This is intended to reduce assistance to Ukraine, especially ahead of winter.

92 drones were headed toward Poland. We intercepted them over Ukrainian territory, 19 reached their airspace. Still, we see the direction, so to speak the choreography of this flight. Italy may be next. You see Norway, Denmark. There are signals from Sweden. There are Romanians, Poles, the Baltic states. Putin is testing what the Europeans have.

Some countries may worry about transferring air-defense systems to Ukraine and decide to keep them at home. But it doesn’t work that way. You can’t use systems like Patriot to shoot down every drone – there simply aren’t that many interceptors in the world.

What’s needed instead is knowledge: the expertise of our mobile fire teams, our drone operators, the leadership of our air forces, and commanders of our air-defense units.

Exakt. Varför sitter Europa fortfarande på läktaren? https://t.co/3xThphzVzC

@carlbildt Does international law also apply to dealing with terrorists? The IRAN regime must be considered a criminal terrorist organization.

@shashj @nytimes Why doesn't Trump give security guarantees to Ukraine? Answer: He doesn't trust Putin at all, but Trump's strategy is to sacrifice Ukraine and save money in the short term.

@ramez Two psychopaths in the White House, one is senseless and one is intelligent. Trump is the senseless and erratic, Vance is the intelligent and dangerous.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

No one asked him in 1942 @WhiteHouse to say thank you. No one told him that he had no cards. No one made fun of his outfit. Back then, everyone knew we were on the side of freedom and against tyranny. Today, those lines tragically are blurred.

[Rune Westergård @RuneWestergard]

@anders_aslund Agree. Typical behaviors of psychopaths are easy to recognize. Psychopaths in leadership positions are dangerous and always destructive over time.

@NilssonPM Fint, kämpen Zelensky behöver känna att han inte är ensam.
