The second one, in French, is published by Revue Défense Nationale and adresses the issue of credibility and reliability of alliances. It is based on my talk at Chaire Grands Enjeux Stratégiques Contemporains last February and it is in a special issue on the future of alliances. defnat.com/revue-defense-

Currently reading. I knew that the US electoral system entrenched GOP advantage, but I had not realized how counter-majoritarian (and anti-democratic) it was. And it ensures that a resentful, gradually antidemocratic minority gets over-representation, which cannot end well.

Endorse. & watch efforts by US pharmaceutical companies to unbundle payments for their own offshored intellectual property from payments for the actual molecule (see reporting from Thomas Hubert 🐌 of the currency)

The US goods deficit with the EU is inflated by Ireland and pharma. The US services surplus with the EU is also inflated by Ireland (more tech than pharma but both)

L’accord commercial nĂ©gociĂ© par la Commission EuropĂ©enne avec les Etats-Unis apportera une stabilitĂ© temporaire aux acteurs Ă©conomiques menacĂ©s par l’escalade douaniĂšre amĂ©ricaine, mais il est dĂ©sĂ©quilibrĂ©. Il a le mĂ©rite d’exempter de tarifs des secteurs clĂ©s pour l’économie

Would you like to know why it has been so difficult for Putin's Russia to build a powerful military? Waterstones has launched a 25% discount on upcoming titles, including my book on Russian military development! 1/4 #WPreorder

Vous avez soutenu Trump, vos dĂ©putĂ©s europĂ©ens refusent l’application de nos lois contre les entreprises amĂ©ricaines, rejettent les instruments de souverainetĂ© europĂ©enne et ensuite vous condamnez la soumission europĂ©enne aux Etats-Unis: vous n’avez vraiment honte de rien!

Erreur de dĂ©butant, il faut dire que la restauration est un secteur de SOU-VE-RAI-NE-TÉ. C’est le mot magique pour continuer Ă  bĂ©nĂ©ficier de toutes les rentes.

Novembre 2024, j’alertais sur le risque pour l’Europe d’ĂȘtre simultanĂ©ment confrontĂ©e Ă : - une dĂ©faite militaire ukrainienne (la situation est mauvaise) - des droits de douanes amĂ©ricains Ă©levĂ©s (en place) - un retrait militaire US (en prĂ©paration) legrandcontinent.eu/fr/2024/11/18/

On peut critiquer VdL, mais elle a respectĂ© ce que voulait la majoritĂ© des Etats-membres, et donc leur souverainetĂ© nationale. En l’occurence, c’est l’expression de la souverainetĂ© nationale des États qui a annulĂ© le principal avantage de l’UE: la taille de son marchĂ©

Comme on le voit avec les nombreuses affaires de corruption qui le touchent lui et ses anciens ministres/proches, la prĂ©sidence Sarkozy a vraiment Ă©tĂ© un moment mafieux de la RĂ©publique. EntiĂšrement logique qu’il se rapproche d’un autre parti mafieux pour se protĂ©ger.

I had a bit of fun this afternoon playing with Andres Gannon's dataset to look at the diffusion patterns of military technologies invented post 1970. Link to the original dataset; militarycapabilities.com
