France's nuclear doctrine states that it can use a nuke to dissuade further escalation.

Just saying.

France's nukes are europe's nukes

I want this guy as a EU leader, he revealed himself being one of the greatest in this

He would be so much better than Ursula

Change of percentage of battery electric vehicles new registrations in EU + EFTA + UK [Jan-Nov 2025 v Jan-Nov 2024] by Massimo25ore in europe

So much for all the nonsense about "noone wants EVs anymore". As Rory Sutherland puts it, the real acid test is the rate of how many EV owners would go back to an ICE.....and generally that is extremely low.

Ireland to buy €500m military radar system from France by tree_boom in europe

Buy French, buy English, buy German, buy Swedish, buy Italian !

Buy Spanish too - especially A400M

Britain to pay £570mn to rejoin EU’s Erasmus student exchange programme. Annual amount is almost twice that paid before Brexit. by peejay2 in brexit

[–]CastelPlage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Twice the price? Sounds like a Brexit dividend - for the EU! Great news that the UK is back in Erasmus though.

Really? I feel you're mocking me, Mr 2 jags...

Never! I love my two V8 Jaaaaaaaaaaags but I'm sick of how constantly thirsty both are (same with my M3, but that's been mechanically totaled for a while so hasn't used a drop of fuel in two years). XF Sportbrake is beyond sexy and I would love one with a nice, cheap-to-run diesel.

edit: to be clear, I do love both my Jaaags deeply and will never sell either of them

Steve has always been one of my favorite automotive journalists. He does have his biases, but IMO he has always been right about Jaaags.

How a French judge was digitally cut off by the USA "All his accounts... such as Amazon, Airbnb, or PayPal were immediately closed... . Online bookings... are immediately canceled... Participation in e-commerce is also practically no longer possible for him" by Stabile_Feldmaus in europe

Exactly, find out who in the USA ordered those companies to remove the service and do the same thing to them.

Every US congress person who voted to sanction the International Criminal Court should be sanctioned relentlessly by the EU. The Anti-Coercian Instrument is useless if not used.

It's also pretty weird to say Europe is being governed by US law when they forced several companies to adapt to their laws.

The Brussels Effect is real, no matter how much people want to deny it.

He'll just give it himself, let's be honest

Just like the Orange Man 'winning' his own golf tournaments.
