@FlickerToons Happy to see Polestar where it belongs. Will most likely have to replace my P3 with a BMW due to the US ban..Volvo is on the short list as well
@GreiderDD Besviken, vi ska hylla de som bygger, skördar åkrar och uppfinner. Inte hylla de som förstör, terroriserar och önskar sina medmänniskor illa.
Det mest förvånande/minst trovärdiga med Alis historia är att han efter tre perioders MP-styre i Stockholm tror att det finns ngt som ”gratisparkering”.
@filippanna En olycka händer så lätt, hade jag en nervös kanske flygrädd man bredvid, han lyckades på kort tid reta upp flygvärdinnan och spilla en drink på mig. Vill du byta säte frågade värdinnan mig :) fick flytta bakåt men ändå tom stol bredvid...
Encapuchados irrumpieron en la alcaldía de Marsella y destrozaron este busto de La Marianne, figura de la libertad y símbolo oficial de la República Francesa.
Verla rota, tirada, con el rostro contra el suelo, es hoy una metáfora de la decadencia en la que se encuentra Francia.
Something significant is happening inside NATO — and Sweden is in the room. 🇸🇪
According to POLITICO, the US has created an informal working format — the so-called Bergen Group — to discuss NATO’s future.
The countries involved:
🇺🇸 United States
🇳🇴 Norway
🇸🇪 Sweden
🇫🇮 Finland
🇵🇱 Poland
🇩🇪 Germany
🇳🇱 Netherlands
Notably absent are the UK, France and the Baltic states.
The exact criteria for membership remain unclear, so this shouldn’t automatically be interpreted as some kind of NATO “A-team”.
But Sweden’s presence is worth paying attention to.
Sweden joined NATO only in March 2024.
Today Sweden is:
• Framework nation for NATO’s Forward Land Forces in Finland
• Increasingly important to the defence of the High North
• Central to Baltic Sea security
• Home to a significant defence-industrial and technological base
• Now included in a small US-led group discussing how NATO should evolve
In a little over two years, Sweden has gone from NATO’s newest member to taking a surprisingly central role in the defence architecture of Northern Europe.
That is a geopolitical shift worth watching.
And perhaps the most interesting question isn't why Sweden is in the room.
It's why some very important allies aren't.
