"We [the Netherlands] have the feeling that migration over the past years has not been in control," Dutch Foreign Minister David van Weel [@ministerBZ] said in an exclusive interview for TVP World.

Russia has been barred from major cultural events around the world, so now the Kremlin is creating its own analogues. The Intervision song contest takes place this Saturday, and it’s more than just a pop concert. Reviving a Cold War tactic, the contest is meant to project to the world a strong, thriving Russia surrounded by allies.

Mijn hemel, nu staan de Poetinvrienden in de rij om te eisen dat ik het hele 'gesprek' in het Witte Huis bekijk. Lieve vrienden, dat heb ik gedaan en het maakt niks uit. En wees eens wat origineler, jullie praten elkaar allemaal na.
Nothing to see here, just the Law and Justice aligned TV network that professes to be the ideological light standing up to Kremlin influences cheering on Trump in what was possibly his most brazenly pro-Moscow moment so far.
Zełenski wychodzi, gdy nie dostaje, czego chce – kolejny pokaz arogancji

Pro-russia morons all across the political spectrum hate hearing their theories shot to pieced by basic facts.

Grappig dat al die mensen die zichzelf in hun bio's betitelen als 'onafhankelijk' en 'vrij' en 'autonoom' en 'zelf denkend' hier lopen te beweren dat Zelensky als een knipmes had moeten buigen voor de onwaarachtigheid van Trump en Vance en hun voeten had moeten kussen.

European leaders should stop tweeting heroic words of support but act accordingly: give all frozen Russian assets to Ukraine now. Speed up military aid to defeat Putin. To defeat Russia. Stop talking. Act for fuck sake – at Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Despite putting heavy sanctions on #Russia and #Belarus, #Europe is struggling to really put a dent in the finances of those regimes. #Western governments are realizing they need to up their game, with The #Netherlands now organizing a conference on the topic.

Serbian President @avucic has suggested that U.S. sanctions on #Serbian energy may be imminent, though he stated they have not yet been finalized or discussed with him. His #government plans to mitigate the potential impact on Serbia but stops short of imposing #sanctions on Moscow.

As the dust begins to settle in #Syria after the downfall of the #dictatorship of Bashar al-Assad, the scale of the #crimes committed by the regime against the Syrian people is beginning to be uncovered. Our correspondent @OzKaterji has more.
Some things never change. Water will always be wet. Outer space will always be a vacuum. And the train connection between Warsaw and Łódź, two cities relatively close to one another, will always suck.
It wasn't just the 'alleged disinformation.' It was the illegally undeclared foreign financing of said disinformation that made them throw the results out.
Uhhhhh a NATO country nullifying an election because of alleged disinformation seems really bad. Lot of horseshoe theory between the disinformation people and the authoritarians.

Moet toch even kwijt dat het aanvragen van een NL paspoort vanuit het buitenland schandalig lang duurt, de informatie online ronduit karig is en slecht opgeschreven, de pasfoto-eisen debiel zijn, en dat de afspraakplicht op het consulaat ook al ruk is.
Rule of thumb: networks and other media are comically bad at vetting so-called 'undecided' or 'swing' voters. More often than not, they are already hardcore MAGA pouncing in every talking point spoon-fed to them.
