What does life under Russian occupation look like? I collected stories of Ukrainians who lived through occupation in 2022-23 to understand Russia's occupation practice and its human cost. Taken together, these individual experiences show a grim reality👇 gppi.net/2024/07/30/life-und…

The lost honor of Gerhard Schröder. It's not just Kremlin connection. Same fatal interplay of ego, ideology & profit turned Schröder into an apologist of 🇨🇳party-state. One of many in 🇩🇪elite. My congratulations on Schröder's 80th. @a_publica @el_pais. agendapublica.es/noticia/191…

Enjoyed comparing attempts to improve shared working in the UK and Germany. In both cases: if political leaders decide that the only way to succeed is jointly and they agree that success really matters then joint working is successful. If not, it’s not.

What if the US really abandons Ukraine – and Europe along with it? Countries like 🇵🇱 and the Baltic states have ramped up their military spending, but @thorstenbenner tells @WSJ that unless 🇫🇷 and 🇩🇪 follow suit, fear will continue to spread. wsj.com/world/will-the-u-s-a…
