@ginandstocks Die Wette würde ich gerne halten. Solche Veränderungen werden meiner Meinung nach deutlich länger brauchen.

No-one will take seriously a weak and divided Europe: neither enemy nor ally. It is already clear now. We must finally believe in our own strength, we must continue to arm ourselves, we must stay united like never before. One for all, and all for one. Otherwise, we are finished.

The decision by the U.S. to impose travel restrictions on European citizens and officials is unacceptable and an attempt to challenge our sovereignty.

Europe will keep defending its values — freedom of expression, fair digital rules, and the right to regulate our own space.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Today, we again heard signals from Moscow that they are preparing to make next year a year of war. These signals are not only for us. It is crucial that our partners see them, and not only see them but also respond – especially partners in the United States, who often say that Russia wants to end the war.

Yet the signals coming from Russia are the exact opposite, taking the form of official orders to their army. This Russian mindset must be recognized – and acted upon. When Russia is in this mindset, it will also undermine diplomacy – seeking, through diplomatic language and pressure over specific points in documents – to merely mask its desire to destroy Ukraine and Ukrainians, and the desire to legitimize Russia’s theft of our land. And then come other countries in Europe, which someone in Russia might one day label their so‑called “historical lands.”

Real protection is needed against this Russian case history of madness, and we will continue working with all partners to ensure that protection is in place. Security measures are needed, financial measures are needed – including actions on Russian assets – political measures are needed. And the courage of all partners is required: to see the truth, acknowledge the truth, and act accordingly. I want to thank everyone who supports Ukraine.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

The Russians started the war, and there is no other way to put it. The whole world is a witness. They came with aggression to destroy us. We stopped them. Europe helped, America helped. Russia failed to occupy Ukraine first and foremost because of the strength of the Ukrainian people – warriors and civilians – and, of course, thanks to our partners.

The United States says that a lot of blood has been shed and it’s enough. And we fully support them. But we must end this war in a way that prevents Russia from coming back a year later with a third invasion. They did not achieve their goal of occupying our country. But I am not sure their objectives have changed. They may simply hold up and we need protection for that.

What will happen tomorrow when our warriors come back home? When they once again become teachers, engineers, people of different professions? They will return, and Russia will continue building up its military strength, preparing for yet another invasion. This is why we want clarity. This is what Ukrainians need.

[Donald Tusk @donaldtusk]

Together with the leaders of Europe, Canada and Japan, we have declared our readiness to work on the 28-point plan despite some reservations. However, before we start our work, it would be good to know for sure who is the author of the plan and where was it created.

[Petr Pavel @prezidentpavel]

Details of the latest proposal to end Russia’s war in Ukraine are not official yet. It remains the case that the bloodshed could stop at once with a ceasefire, which Russia continues to refuse. For the peace plan to be just, it must not punish the victim or overlook the crimes committed. And for it to last, it must guarantee Ukraine’s sovereignty, ability to chart its own course, and decent future. Ukrainians and Europeans know Russia all too well and need credible assurances that this aggression will not return. That is why Ukraine and Europe must have a full say in any settlement.

[Richard Branson @richardbranson]

The utter irony of Putin and Trump meeting soon in Budapest to jointly seal Ukraine’s fate should not be lost on anybody. This is the very same city where the US, the UK, and Russia came together 31 years ago to give Ukraine ironclad assurances that its territorial integrity would be respected and protected within existing borders in exchange for giving up a third of the world’s nuclear weapons (to Russia!). Ukraine trusted the US, trusted the UK, transferred all its nuclear weapons to Russia, and joined the Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Within 20 years, Putin effectively ripped up the Budapest Memorandum, ignored Russia’s pledge, and invaded and annexed Crimea. In 2022, Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine finally removed all remaining doubts about Putin’s imperial greed.

If treaties and agreements between countries are to be trusted, the US and the UK must stand by the original Budapest Memorandum and give the Ukrainians everything they need to push Russia out of Ukraine, as President Trump said he would do before taking Putin’s latest call. It is the only way for Ukraine to get its territory back and put an end to this brutal invasion.

If the US and Russia continue to ignore the Budapest Memorandum of 1994, how on Earth can Ukraine be expected to have any faith in yet another Budapest memorandum signed in the same city between Russia and the United States? They can’t.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I have already arrived in Washington, tomorrow I am meeting with President Trump. Tomorrow we are also speaking with European leaders. I am grateful to @POTUS for the invitation. We all share a strong desire to end this war quickly and reliably. And peace must be lasting. Not like it was years ago, when Ukraine was forced to give up Crimea and part of our East—part of Donbas—and Putin simply used it as a springboard for a new attack. Or when Ukraine was given so called “security guarantees” in 1994, but they didn't work. Of course, Crimea should not have been given up then, just as Ukrainians did not give up Kyiv, Odesa, or Kharkiv after 2022. Ukrainians are fighting for their land, for their independence. Now, our soldiers have successes in Donetsk and Sumy regions. I am confident that we will defend Ukraine, effectively guarantee security, and that our people will always be grateful to President Trump, everyone in America, and every partner and ally for their support and invaluable assistance. Russia must end this war, which it itself started. And I hope that our joint strength with America, with our European friends, will force Russia into a real peace. Thank you!

@JDVance While you support anti-democratic movements in Germany & Romania, I support freedom, democracy, free markets, Nato and the West. Do you think that is wrong?
Trump's performance with Putin in Helsinki 2018 was disastrous for the US & the West. Do you really want that repeated?

[Fabian Hoffmann, PhD @FRHoffmann1]

I dislike some of the EU's regulatory overreach as much as anyone. But if Trump steps in to back Musk and Zuckerberg on this, I’ll wholeheartedly side with the EU bureaucrats, no matter the personal cost—whether it affects my convenience or standard of living.

If Americans want oligarchs to decide what counts as freedom of speech and what qualifies as disinformation, fine. But the EU should never bow down on this.

[Spencer Fernando @SpencerFernando]

Trump is picking fights with Canada and the European Union, while repeating Russian propaganda about NATO and Ukraine and praising Xi Jinping. If you don't see how dangerous this is, it's time to wake up.
