German Chancellor Merz:
"Israel is the only democracy in the entire Middle East."
"The existence of the State of Israel is non-negotiable for us."
🇸🇮 JANEZ JANŠA: SLOVENIA IS NO ONE’S SERVANT AND WON’T CALL GAZA “GENOCIDE” TO PLEASE BRUSSELS
Former Slovenian PM Janez Janša’s message is blunt: Slovenia is sovereign, EU foreign policy requires its consent, and calling Gaza or Judea & Samaria a “genocide” is a political position, not a legal determination.
He says Slovenia’s government should put the interests and well-being of the Slovenian people first.
At a time when the Palestinian cause is increasingly treated in parts of Europe as something that overrides national interest, sovereignty and even basic factual distinctions, that clarity matters.
Israel needs friends who are willing to challenge the consensus when they believe the consensus is wrong.
Thank you, @JJansaSDS, for the friendship, and for saying it plainly.
🇳🇱🇺🇦Dutch patriot leader Geert Wilders just slammed Ukraine after Kyiv demanded $2 billion from the Netherlands.
"We've already given many billions to Ukraine - we need to spend the money on our own population now!"
"Dutch people first!"
This is the world's best preserved 17th-century ship.
The Swedish warship, Vasa sank in 1628 and remained intact for more than 300 years before it was recovered from the seafloor.
Everyone knows the trillion-dollar version of SpaceX. Almost nobody remembers that Elon's first rocket failed three times, and there was money for exactly only one more attempt.
DO NOT be afraid to fail.
Thank you PM Janša for your courage and clarity amidst EU hypocrisy. The EU remains silent when Turkey, a NATO member, illegally occupies half of Cyprus – an EU member! Yet when the Jewish people want to exercise their historic right to build and live in their ancestral homeland, the EU is outraged.
You reminded everyone that Slovenia is a sovereign state and an equal member of the EU. That is not a provocation. It is a right that some wish to deny.
Thank you, Janez, for your conviction and leadership.
1. Jugoslavije ni več, gre za Slovenijo.
2. Prisegati na mednarodno pravo in hkrati govoriti o genocidu v Gazi ali v Judeji in Samariji (aka zahodni breg), ki ga po mednarodnem pravu nobena pristojna institucija ni ugotovila - je politična izbira posebne vrste.
3. Slovenija je suverena država ter enakopravna članica EU in brez našega soglasja (ali soglasja katere koli druge članice) ni “evropskega zunanjepolitičnega stališča”, ki bi ga morali podpreti. Smo (so)odločevalci in ne hlapci.
4. @vladaRS ima jasno usmeritev glede prioritet svojega delovanja, ki so osredotočene na povečanje blaginje slovenskega človeka, zato bo vodila pragmatično politiko na vseh področjih svoje ustavne pristojnosti. Enako pričakuje od drugih nosilcev javnih funkcij, ki so ob nastopu prisegli, da bodo delovali za blaginjo Slovenije.
