What does 1’40” of Macron at the Sorbonne tell us, other than his speeches are too long? Enduring passion for 🇪🇺; ability to range from banal to philosophical; willingness to think about 🇪🇺; sense of urgency “Europe can die”. Plenty will irritate allies, but at least he has ideas
Just finished grading my favorite assignment of the semester and the students in my Vietnam War class really nailed it! Here's some of the best memes they came up with:
With the far right Rassemblement National 14-16% ahead of Macron’s centrist alliance before 9 June EU elections, a debt downgrade could not come at a worse time. A double figure defeat for Govt would increase chances of early parliamentary elections before the end of the yr ENDS

On the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution, let me recommend one of Portugal’s greatest writers: the astounding Eça de Queirós. The Maias is probably his supreme masterpiece, a vast and extraordinary work to rank with Germinal, Sentimental Education or Middlemarch.

It's interesting how in 69 BC, during the Third Mithridatic War, the Heptacomitae tribe were able to poison over 1,000 Roman soldiers with "mad honey", and then ambushed and slaughtered the intoxicated Romans. This is a special variety of honey produced in the Black Sea region…

@McNamara_Eoin Germans would ask us Balts about 🇷🇺, but they never liked our answers and told us to forget about the past and look to the prosperous shared future. And they believed they were the ones grounded in realism not fantasy.

Но что ответила Шульман на вопрос: «Вы перестали пить коньяк по утрам?»
Putin's policy is opposite to Russian national security interests. He wages war against 🇺🇦, a neighbor aspiring for democracy, a natural partner (geographic bridge) for joining the US and NATO against actual threats of terrorism and expansion.
My heart goes out to the victims of the terrorist act in Russia and their families. Putin's police state is best able to silence the opposition. Once again, beware those in Israel, America, and elsewhere who expect a strong man to guarantee security.
Incompetence or treason?
Every democratic revolution has its antecedents. If Putin falls, historians will look back to the crowds massing at Navalny's funeral and the noon queues at polling stations as moments when the ice began to crack. 9/9
For citizens of democracies, it is difficult to conceive of the courage required to defy a totalitarian regime. Almost everyone who joined those queues at noon knew about regime's pitiless brutality towards ordinary people who openly expressed their dissent. 4/9
This is wrong. Putin's dictatorship is founded upon social atomisation. Under totalitarian conditions, citizens acting together in public space is radically subversive. There is nothing the regime wants more than for a de-politicised population to cower in their apartments. 1/9
This was a foolish strategy by the Russian opposition: These people's votes are going to be stolen anyway, and lines at polling stations allows the regime to claim a high turnout, making the sham vote seem legitimate. When faced with a sham election simply don't participate.
@SPlokhy This should be an eye-opener for many.
@MSnegovaya и не будет. я в нее верю примерно так же как в 88%
@MSnegovaya Я Вас умоляю, как будто у путина раньше не было этого карт бланша. Ему нужно признание лидеров стран мира
The proportion of the vote claimed by a dictator in a rigged election is inversely proportional to that dictator’s sense of confidence.
...talking about the issues of the day by pretending you're talking ab out history, or another country or, say, a high-profile nationalist. Even while the media is in the state's grip now - as in the 70s and 80s - people are still finding ways round its dead hand. 7/
