@oxrox22@NXT4EU You have never felt war on your soil. Thats why you talk like that.
We gave human souls in millions. We endured bombs and tanks. If we let them lose in 39, they would ride you as their bulls from east to west coast.
Indeed it was. Energy is everything.
If you don't have natural energy resources than you have to build nuclear.
Otherwise you become a hobbo begging for a piece of bread.
Germany's Merz admits that it was a serious mistake to exit nuclear energy.
Germany is now undertaking the most expensive energy transition in the world, and he knew of no other country that makes things so difficult and expensive as Germany.
Merz wants to fix that.
🇨🇦🇨🇳 When Allies Stop Carrying the US, Power Gets Expensive
The Carney visit to Beijing is a loud signal that the US is about to relearn a basic truth it has enjoyed for decades: allies were not just nice to have, they were the force multiplier that made American power feel effortless.
When Canada, one of America’s closest partners, openly frames its China outreach as trade diversification away from the US because of tariff pressure. Beijing calling the trip a “turning point” is exactly what happens when the US starts treating partners like vassals. Others start shopping for options.
And here’s the part Washington tends to underestimate: the US benefits from a global network built on trust, predictability, and allied buy in. Undermine that, and the cost of American power spikes fast. Supply chains get rewired, defense cooperation gets colder, intelligence sharing gets narrower, basing becomes political, and the US ends up spending more to get less.
Trump style pressure politics may win headlines, but it trains partners to reduce dependence. Canada’s Beijing trip is not the cause of that shift. It is the new reality pax America.
I see a lot of Cons complaining about PM Mark Carney's visit to China.
When your closest ally (the US) treats you the way they have, it's time to go out and make new deals, and expand on current ones.
PM Mark Carney has been doing a fantastic job 🇨🇦❤️

Reporter: You called China a "global disruptive power." Do you still believe that's the case or has your language around China softened?
Canadian FM Anita Anand: This is a new government with a new Prime Minister, a new foreign policy and a new geopolitical environment.
It is necessary for us to diversify our trading partners and to grow non-US trade by at least 50% over the next 10 years.
From Atlantic to Caucasus, Europeans stood united.
Through Dark Ages, Enlightenment, Exploration & Wars—we suffered together, we fought together, we won together.
