Donald Trump's threat to strike Iran's bridges and power plants has raised the prospect of war crimes. The EU insists all sides should respect international law and exercise "maximum restraint". #EuropeNews

United Kingdom and the European Union don’t want to be complicit in Trump’s war crimes.

Europe is our closest and most trusted ally, and it is right on our doorstep. Let's make the most of it.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “MAGA-style leaders may say that our country can’t handle taking in so many migrants, that this is a suicidal move — the desperate act of a collapsing country,” writes Pedro Sánchez, the prime minister of Spain. “But don’t let them fool you. Spain is booming.”

"France has announced plans to phase out American video conferencing services such as Microsoft Teams and Zoom across its public administration by 2027, replacing them with a domestically developed platform called Visio." 👏👏 EU administrations should reduce their dependence on US software services

What's left to say?

#Minneapolis > Pam Bondi today, Saturday sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states. #midterms

Der Grönland-Konflikt erreicht den Supermarkt: In Dänemark helfen Apps Verbrauchern, Lebensmittel aus den USA zu meiden. Greift der Protest gegen Präsident Donald Trump auf Deutschland über? www.t-online.de/digital/aktu...

Nuestro consumo es una herramienta política. Nuestras compras son un arma. El boicot es la única arma que tienen los de abajo en una guerra comercial. Bajo esas premisas, miles de daneses han decidido boicotear los productos que vienen del país que les ha declarado una guerra a ellos: Estados Unidos

“Danish citizens are organising a huge boycott that includes cancelling planned holidays in the US, cancelling subscriptions to on-demand services based in the US & more generally, recommending the use of EU services instead of those provided by American platforms.” So, same as Canadians.

🇲🇩 Moldova moves to withdraw from Russian-led CIS, Foreign Minister says

Now it's really done: the liberals of Renew Europe joins the EPP and the Socialists to delay the ratification of the EU-US trade deal. The three centrist parties have a majority in the chamber to make it happen. The European Parliament is NOT voting this deal.

Iratxe García Pérez, leader of the Socialist group: "Trump’s 25% tariffs on allies supporting Greenland against his imperialist threats are unacceptable. We must act now: suspend negotiations on the EU-US trade deal and activate the Anti-Coercion Instrument. The EU will not bow to intimidation."

Manfred Weber, the leader of the EPP, says the approval of the EU-US trade deal should be "put on hold" in response to Trump's 10% tariff threat. Until today, the EPP, the largest group in the European Parliament, wanted to move forward with ratification despite the Greenland tensions.

At the same time others are on tariffs, the European Union is closing agreements

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen: "If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU." "Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

All committees at the @europarl.europa.eu are being blue checked.
