Lies from Croatia and the commission

I believe in free movement for everybody. But I also believe in human rights and accountability. Violence, abuse and lies from #Croatia and the #Commmission should not have been swept under the rug in bid for Croatian accession to the #Schengen area.

Burkina Faso: Letting them forge their own destiny

It isn't enough for the #EU🇪🇺 to lament the coup in #BurkinaFaso🇧🇫 or call for a return to civilian government.
We must face up to the catastrophic, long term detabilisation of this entire region of #Africa by #NATO's assault on #Libya🇱🇾 in 2011, & the EU's neocolonial misadventures in the #Sahel, in particular the EU training mission in #Mali🇲🇱.

Crocodile tears from MEPs about Qatar sportwashing

Don't mind the rhetoric and crocodile tears from MEPs about #Qatar2022 sportswashing. The reality is #EU is systematically overlooking #Qatari human rights abuses, out of self interest.
It has cut itself off from #Russian energy on the basis #Russia is an authoritarian regime fighting an illegal war, only to cosy up to #Qatar, an authoritarian regime involved in an illegal war in #Yemen, all to get access to #Qatari energy.
If there was a #WorldCup for Hypocrisy we would walk away victors without a match being played.

The instability of the US and Europe will tremor down for generations

After decades of #US and #European misrule in the #MiddleEast - terrorism, coups, invasions and proxy wars, a legacy of misery, trauma and conflict - the EU washes its hands of it, strokes its chin, and ponders how to bring "stability to the region"? You have got to be joking.

Diabetes numbers skyrocket after an unexplained epidemic

  

An epidemic of diabetes is raging through Europe. Investment and research and support is urgently needed. Without a reversal in cuts to health and privatisation of care, diabetes risks exacerbating the dire socioeconomic inequalities in our societies.

It should be left to the Iranians to decide their fate as they strive for change

Everyone should support the right of ordinary people in #Iran to push for change in their country without harsh crackdowns.
How though? Too often #EU talks about "what we should do," rather than what we should not do, and what we should undo.
"Maximum pressure" is not helping Iranians. It is hurting them and making their struggle more difficult.

Next Generation EU

#NextGenerationEU is the #EU's temporary recovery instrument to bounce back from the #covid pandemic and achieve climate, digital and economic goals. But let's remember money borrowed from the markets always comes with conditions.

The Commission plays a dangerous game with Hungary’s rule of law

The Commission is playing a dangerous game in politicising the #EU's #ruleoflaw mechanisms - and undermining any chance of #Hungary's rule of law problems actually being addressed.

The ridiculous claim of “Hybrid Warfare” comes in response to Russian sanctions

#Ireland has sanctioned 100s of Russian officials since February. Last week, #Russia did the same back. Media histrionics from FF/FG ensued. But it is not 'hybrid warfare,' as Micheál Martin ridiculously claimed. It's nothing more than a predictable diplomatic consequence of his own government's decisions.

EU-China relations

Rhetoric of MEPs on #EU🇪🇺-#China🇨🇳 relations makes it difficult not to conclude the #EuropeanParliament is an increasingly extremist institution. Even Biden administration🇺🇲 is now communicating a less hawkish line than the theatrics in here. Where does madness this stop?
