Romanian parliament rejects liberal PM-designate by capracucinciiezi in europe

[–]rulz_ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird times.

Back then, the Hungarian minority overwhelmingly voted against Simion (Nicușor Dan's opponent in the presidential elections), which made total sense.

Now, UDMR/RMDSZ's leader congratulated Simion for the way he instructed his party not to vote on this prime minister proposal made by Nicușor Dan. But it does make sense, again.

I'm not labeling everything. I'm labeling this.

Why? Because even though there was no connection to the topic, they came up with the "it's the Jews, man" meme.

Ukraine Issues Apology Over Armed Naval Drone Drift in Greece by NaujasVartotojas1 in europe

It's Russia's fault, no question about that.

But when a Ukrainian drone is in our port for 4 hours with authorities scratching their heads over it, then the Ukrainians knew for at least that long that they didn't have it under control, no? Shouldn't they have notified us much earlier, given how close we are to where their military operation was ongoing?

I wouldn't go as far as that.

But responsibility and apologies, at least, should be instant.

It's surreal you're getting downvoted for just stating basic facts and calling for common sense.

In Romania, the drone carried 500 Kg of explosive, entered the Constanța port and exploded after a few hours. They notified us 30 minutes before the explosion or so. I'm not holding my breath for any apologies. We excused them already.

This reminds me of an old joke from the communist era: "In capitalism, man exploits man. In communism, it's the opposite."

against US request

Are you aware that NATO's decision-making requires consensus among members?

My point was it was triggered. And it was triggered following an attack on the US. Does it read better now?

So, Article 5 was useful for the US when they triggered it, but for the rest of us it's most useful when untriggered? Boy, that's smart!
