There is always the question of why people are losing patience with the old politics around the world. 
In the United States, in Europe, in Latin America, no one can stand the maintainers of the status quo anymore.
And in Europe, the problem is hidden in cowardice. German Chancellor Merz recently said: “My biggest concern right now is not our economy, not the European Union, not America, not China.
My biggest concern is the impact of Russia on our society and how they are managing to destabilize our societies.” This is the greatest synthesis of what I have been saying for a long time. Europe has clung to the excuse of a Russian threat so it does not have to discuss what really matters. 
Every month some European intelligence service claims that the Russians are planning an invasion. 
Instead of carrying out the reforms society actually wants, they perpetuate insecurity and fear. Fortunately, few people in Europe believe this narrative. Where is the German leader’s speech about a major plan to make energy cheaper and bring companies back? There is none. 
Where is the speech on replacing Russian gas cheaply? There is none. 
Where is the speech about building new relationships with the supply chains that Europe has lacked, and lacked badly? There is none. Where and when will this European cowardice give way to serious and independent policies? And this does not apply only to German leadership. I could give several other examples. When there is no Russian invasion planned for next week, they talk about Chinese sabotage. It is never them, always the others. Let us hope the new European generations are able to take back the reins and build a future with seriousness.
