Welcome to collective security, Demark. Another welcome sign of increased European solidarity in the face of totalitarian aggression. Let's strengthen the European model.
One should not exaggerate the impact of the Danish #Zeitenwende beyond EU defence. #optout #Referendum #Denmark @lykkefriis @thinkeuropa buff.ly/3Q8kl4n
via @NYTimes This article formulates an intriguing and urgent question: will Ukraine be as important as 9/11 in redefining US foreign policy? The answer: the transatlantic alliance needs to defend and articulate common democratic values and principles. nytimes.com/2022/03/12/us/po…
Prachtige presentatie over ons interdiciplinaire onderzoeksproject Constructing the Limes. @limes_c @nwoNieuws

Well done!

Excellent tip. Great read about transatlantic contrasts in both governance and tech. Think about this conclusion: “In many ways, Europe is the only functioning regulator of Silicon Valley.” Let’s hear it for Marietje Schaake.
What Can America Learn from Europe About Regulating Big Tech? Great article about @MarietjeSchaake in the New Yorker, discussing politics at Stanford instead of just innovation newyorker.com/tech/annals-of… via @NewYorker

Mooie analyse en terecht advies: eurozone moet zich als eenheid teweer stellen tegen mondiale uitdagers. En kan dit ook.

I would not count on it. So far, Republicans seem to condone everything their president does, regardless its morality.

Het wordt hoog tijd de transatlantische verschillen (en overeenkomsten) beter te begrijpen: ru.nl/opleidingen/master/tra… nrc.nl/nieuws/2020/06/02/maa…
Goed om de mondiale verantwoordelijkheid van de #EU voor het behoud van de liberale #wereldorde te benadrukken. Dit vergt ook investeren in #transatlantische samenwerking, juist nu. nrc.nl/nieuws/2020/05/29/eu-…

Indeed, disconcerting news, giving a megaphone to a fringe querulant who peddles #ConspiracyTheories. Where has the time gone that a shared confidence #Science and facts was the basis of the #transatlantic alliance. #FactsMatter

Nothing is new, writes #OrhanPamuk (via ⁦@nytopinion⁩) in a compelling evocation of historical novels about plague #pandemics: governmental denial, uncontrollable rumors, baseless accusations. But also hope for humility and solidarity. nytimes.com/2020/04/23/opini…
