President has claimed the US needs to acquire Greenland for national security purposes — a move that European allies see as a threat to the Arctic island’s sovereignty
Several EU countries have been distancing themselves from the US for the past year and a half, but apparently they didn’t feel prepared for cutting contact this spring.
Was it three trade agreements signed since Trump went to office? Mercosur, India and Australia iirc. They’ve all been laying around in a drawer, with minor details missing. Boom, they’re all good now.
That’s not at random, that’s Europe positioning itself to not rely on the US. The continent has been awakened and the drift away is going to happen. The US wanted to be isolated, they can’t stop the movement now.
India is going to replace a fair share of the reliance Europe has on the US. But Africa is right there next door screaming for investment, no need to invest in the US
Mercosur wasn’t signed in Colombia at the initially planned date. That looked like US influence.
India is built up against China, with an extreme right government that looks US made.
Australia is big but with a small population. That looks more like a support of the American shift to Asia since it came with a defence agreement if I remember correctly.
But Africa is right there next door screaming for investment
So why don’t we invest?
Five of Cuba’s 15 provinces without power as grid fails again
India is built up against China, with an extreme right government that looks US made.
But it’s a democracy which is moving in the right direction in terms of personal freedoms.

Looking at the official statement, it’s a direct jab against the US turning away from a rules based order. This agreement is not to glaze the US, far from it.
The EU and Australia are already long-standing allies and partners, whose global outlook is aligned in terms of defending multilateralism and the rules-based international order.
We are, but we should be investing more. And more importantly, we should cleverly flood the Arabic peninsula with euroes through energy trade. To make Saudi Arabia assert its soft power in Africa and weaken the US in the process.
We honor the US embargo. There is no independence.
There’s no way we can break a US blockade on Cuba, just like the US successfully can’t invade France. Distance is a hell of an issue.
Cuba is too insignificant to cause a greater international reaction
