” 🇮🇱’s decision to go to war with Iran 🇮🇷 risks opening a Pandora’s box by dealing a fatal blow to diplomacy and pushing Iran towards either nuclear weaponisation as its primary security guarantee or towards state collapse.” ⁦ECFR⁩ ecfr.eu/article/enough…

And now Rome 🇮🇹 is the destination of the day. No complaints on that. Then it’s onwards from there to the Puglia region.

The 🇺🇸 intelligence assessments are now evidently doctored on orders from the White House. The rest of the world could accordingly come to see them as less credible. Politicized intelligence has a very bad history. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Today in Vilnius, we welcomed heroes freed after years of torture in KGB prisons. Thanks to tireless 🇺🇸 efforts & unwavering 🇪🇺 support, they’re no longer behind bars, though forced into exile. Now we must help them heal—and keep fighting for those still imprisoned.

I don’t want to hear any 🇪🇺 statement that the 🇺🇸 has the right to defend itself. This is a clearcut violation of international law.

The key military issue now must be what happens with the enriched uranium that 🇮🇷 has. It doesn’t just evaporate because the facilities are bombed. A reasonable assumption is that 🇮🇷 will try to preserve and protect it. Now they are in all probability finally contemplating a

I will look with keen interest on whether 🇪🇺 today refers to international law in what it will say on the 🇮🇱🇺🇸 strikes on 🇮🇷. The 🇬🇧🇫🇷🇩🇪 statement was remarkable for completely ignoring the subject. I hope they understand that by being blind on this issue they undermine their

Impressive to see how defense systems engage 🇮🇷 missiles incoming against 🇺🇸 Al Udeid base in 🇶🇦. Key question is how many missiles Iran 🇮🇷 has for these attacks which are likely to be directed also at other 🇺🇸 bases in the region.

It looks as if the 🇮🇷 ballistic missile reprisal attack against 🇺🇸 bases was carefully designed so as to avoid further escalation. Meanwhile 🇮🇱 issues further evacuation orders in Teheran 🇮🇷 prior to further strikes.

Flattery is evidently the new bond of the Atlantic Alliance. I guess it replaces the more outdated concepts of common values and common threat perceptions.

Very positive with NATO countries agreeing to spend 3.5% of their GDP on defence by 2035. Some did it because they are scared of President Putin - others because they are scared of President Trump. But the result is what matters - in a few years time we can judge delivery.
