As a manufacturing giant, Germany for decades dragged its feet on EU liberalisation of services in which it historically lacked a comparative advantage, @sandertordoir.bsky.social, chief economist of the @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social, told me. buff.ly/HUdIO6R

Until the 13th I have two other talks coming up but the #NATODefenseCollegeFoundation was quick in posting! Honored.

A UK conservative MP lost his seat and went to Ukraine to fight at the frontline. What a story. The Times: Jack Lopresti, 56, lost his UK Conservative MP seat in 2024. 0/

What the hell is wrong with our governments and 'civilisation' to have allowed this to happen... and continue to happen?

Hamas has accepted a ceasefire deal by Egypt and Qatar which would include releasing half of the remaining living Israeli hostages in exchange for 60 days of stopping the war, as part of a phased final end of the war. I suspect Netanyahu will reject it www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

About last year.. too much to ponder. Grateful for friendships🍀

Working on the #MiddleEast for a while now- and here is the first report- with @ntanriverdi for #EDAM- How #TurkishForeignPolicy is evolving vis-a-vis the region and the #Gulf countries

Cleaning the library- look at this cover and dig yourself into despair.. year is 2010!

Bu, Epstein meselesine dair, 6 yıl önce ne bulunabiliyorsa neredeyse hepsini içeren, 23 bölümlük (evet, 23!) bir yazı dizisi. Roman gibi biraz. Bu ilk yazının altında ötekilerin hepsinin linki var. Olay ilginizi çekiyorsa > Çünkü bu “onların” hikâyesi - Platform 24 platform24.org/cunku-bu-onl...

The fact that the political cycle of the NDPP will come in 2027 and “trajectory and balance of spending under this plan will be reviewed in 2029, in light of the strategic environment and updated Capability Targets” prove that this urgency is recognized. #NATOSummit www.nato.int/cps/en/natoh...

Now that we are all on our ways to different locations- the primary message I leave with from this summit is the need for speed: The urgency to act in all core tasks, to “harness emerging technology and the spirit of innovation”#NATOsummit www.nato.int/cps/en/natoh...

Finally, what is going on in the ME is mentioned at the #NATOsummit. NATO is exposed but there is no strategy- says Emile Hokayem.

“Turkey has a very strong defense industry that is close to the UK, Norway and EU- let’s not build fences in front of the country” says Marc Rutte, SG of NATO at the #NATOsummit @edamorg.bsky.social

Bizim için asıl rahatsız edici olan, İsrail ve ABD'nin İran'da bir rejim değişikliği senaryosunu hayata geçirmeleri olacaktır. İran'ın çözülmesi ve istikrarsızlığa düşmesi Irak ve Suriye'ye benzemez. Sonuçları ve insani boyutta tetikleyeceği olumsuzluklar çok daha ağır olur.

Hadi bakalım.. Trump gelecek mi gelmeyecek mi..

Too familiar..

Exactly as expected. West Bank has a much bigger and older place in Israeli imaginations than Gaza.. www.bbc.com/news/article...

As I recall, just five or ten years ago, it was not nearly as common to include the Golan Heights in maps of Israel as it is today. Nowadays it seems like it happens on every other map.

“Wars are heritable” as #simonkuper writes in the FT, and we have to remember that this generation does not have the recollection of the WWII.

Sırrı Süreya Önder’in gitmesi de çok acıttı..ülkeyi sevmek için de sevmeyi bilmek gerek. espirili, alçakgönüllü, içte dışta barış isteyen, bir de biraz okumuş yazmış, biraz edebiyat bilen siyasetçilerimiz olsa.

Perfect cover @newyorker.com as always

It's like Vance and Trump criticising a lack of freedom of speech in Europe whilst they bar journalists from briefings, defund the Voice of America, sanction universities and demonstrations and generally trash the first amendment.

Russian reaction to Le Pen case: “more and more European capitals are.. trampling democratic norms”- let this sit here a bit. Every concept we knew are hollowed out- do we believe the message or do we judge the messenger.. on.ft.com/42hmZMl
