Words of condemnation alone will not stop attacks on Kyiv. Only sustained military support for Ukraine and increased pressure on Moscow can do that. This week, the EU has started disbursing €6 billion under the €90 billion support loan to strengthen Kyiv’s defences. (1/3)

Europe needs to balance openness & the need for Chinese technology with protecting European industry from unfair cooperation, @ceciliamalmstrom.bsky.social writes. And the security dimension, not least in the area of rare earths & critical raw materials, must be included.

V-Dems demokratirapport 2026 är osminkad. 92 autokratier, 87 demokratier. USA förlorar sin status som liberal demokrati för första gången på femtio år. Värre än 1930-talet. Men vägen framåt finns. https://carlheath.se/en-tid-av-demokratiska-sonderfall/

Go Birgitta! ❤️

The EU & its partners have an opportunity to lead in updated multilateralism—they could fashion new rules on subsidies & economic security, different models of carbon pricing, & deepen cooperation on critical minerals. But to remain trustworthy, they must stay open. By @ceciliamalmstrom.bsky.social:

This constant threat of tariffs is getting ridiculous. Now Europe really needs to stand up and not let itself be bullied. There are anti coercion instruments, counter tariffs and other tools to be used if necessary. Solidarity 🇬🇱

Finally some good news. Important for jobs, investment, cooperation and the defence of rule based trade. Strong geopolitical signal.
