Europe does not need new trade defence weapons to respond to China's export surge.

It needs to use its existing powers more decisively to deter coercion, strengthen its negotiating position & restore competitiveness before it's too late, writes @ruehlig. https://t.co/cOMqOJ5YoB

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

There will be no problem for Türkiye to get the F-35 that we had paid for long before, five or six years ago.

We paid for those F-35s. They've been sitting in a hangar to be picked up by us.

NATO published interesting data on defence spending in 2026.

Some takeaways⬇️

1. Baltics and Poland are leading in how much of GDP they are spending on defence. The USA is Nr.9.

Germany has cancelled its troubled F126 frigate programme in favour of a smaller, largely off-the-shelf design, which may have implications beyond just the future size and shape of the German Navy.

Canadian PM Mark Carney admits:

Lecturing countries from afar is an ineffective strategy. It's satisfying, but it's ineffective.

I addressed a Canadian consular case in Ankara two days ago, and because I was with the President, it was addressed favorably.

If I sat in Ottawa and pointed out all the things that we might not agree with—what Türkiye has done, is doing, or might do—I wouldn't have had that conversation. I wouldn't have had that impact.

That's a small example, but it is an example of a broader point.

“Next year, France could elect its first far-right leader since 1944,” writes @Mij_Europe. “A far-right government taking control in France would change the country, but it would likely be even more destabilizing to the European Union.”

“The world that these theorists foresaw half a century ago is now here. The literate era will prove to be a brief interlude between the oral and digital ages.” A fascinating read.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis:

I always welcome Turkish hospitality, and again, Türkiye organized an excellent NATO Summit, and I will continue to work with President Erdogan toward a productive relationship.

Even if we don't solve this longstanding problem—which, again, dates back to the 1970s—that does not mean that we cannot live in peace.

Decisions taken by the Turkish Parliament back in the 1990s simply have no place in today's world.
