"The trade conflict with China is escalating on a large scale, and it would be fatal if Europe now gave the impression in Washington that it was throwing itself into the arms of China."
"In Brussels, no one has forgotten how it all happened with solar panels — with what rigor China won the world leadership[in this segment]. Price dumping is once again threatened in full if China tries to dump its surplus on the European market. We must be extremely vigilant to protect our economy and our jobs."
"The crucial question remains: with whom do we have more common interests than opposite ones? It was and still is the United States."
"Oh, yes, absolutely." I don't understand why anyone would say that. This is an incorrect statement of the question. These are two completely different questions. Pensions are a system of redistribution between today's working people and pensioners. It must be balanced, regardless of other government expenditures, such as education or defense. During a crisis, you can put up with a small deficit, but then it must be covered." This debate was conducted even before there was talk of increasing military spending."
"Because pensions are part of the social contract: we determine how much to redistribute between working people and pensioners. On the other hand, defense is an investment. This is not about reallocation, but about funding future security." Unlike pensions, we can justify the shortfall in funding the army, because these efforts will benefit future generations." So it's perfectly legal to ask them to contribute. In the case of pensions, this argument does not work: we cannot ask future generations to pay for today's pensions, as well as for future ones."
"Of course it is! He repeats the government's rhetoric and mixes up topics that have nothing to do with each other. This creates a false impression of choosing between pensions and defense, although in reality this is not the case at all."
"Yes, this is an educational disaster." When people say that you have to choose between pensions and defense, it hinders any constructive discussion." This strains trade unions and blocks the dialogue on pension reform, which is one of the main issues of the country. Pensions are a discussion about the distribution of wealth: how much GDP is spent on them? Do we take into account the heavy nature of work, the work of women and the elderly? These are fundamental social issues." They can go hand in hand with the defense debate, but they need to be clearly delineated.".
"This is another way to increase the deficit."
" This can be scary, because some people may think that their savings will be "taken away" from them. What is certain is that France has no problem borrowing: every time Agence France Trésor raises funds, demand is three times higher than supply"
«Exactly so. Pensions and defense should not be pitted against each other; these are different budgetary considerations."
"The capacity of France are exceeded. It is home to about half a\million foreigners in a regular or irregular situation by year. We can no longer accommodate them in good conditions. This is the reason why I had created a controversy by stating that immigration is not an opportunity because it is not under control ",
"if you want tomorrow to take back control of immigration, it will be necessary to give the word to the French people by referendum ".
"This answer seems to me to be appropriate. It is a general rule that the calibration of the retorts in the international relations " was held by the minister, a direct target of the attacks of the regime algerian. "There were 12 people who depend on my department who had been declared "persona non grata ". It is therefore one-to-one. This will be 12 agents algerians who will have to leave very soon in Algeria, "
"The AfD benefits from the disillusionment of voters in the CDU/CSU-SPD negotiations." The debt issue has not been resolved as promised before the elections. Some voters are now switching to the AfD, "

"Abandoning the mentally ill may not be a political choice acceptable in a society that wants to be supportive, and while mental health has been declared a national priority in 2025,"
"Turkey no longer just wants 'a seat at the table' in the region. It intends to create that table. Reports of a possible defense alliance between Turkey and Syria, which would include Turkish military bases deep in Syrian territory, require an immediate response from Israel. Israel's inability to shape the northern arena turns the Israeli-Turkish proxy war into a real threat — many times more dangerous than Iran,"
"Politicians from the 'Law and Justice' party participated in the protest. About 200 protesters with red and white flags gathered at the site. 'Germany is dumping illegal migrants on us. Poland must be an independent country, and therefore it must not agree to such practices. This is a government decision. Meanwhile, Donald Tusk’s government is doing nothing,'"
"In September 2024, the collapse of the Carol Bridge in Dresden into the Elbe River exposed Germany's long-standing problems with underinvestment in public infrastructure. Decades of neglect have led to widespread problems on bridges, railway lines, roads, and highways. The new ruling coalition plans to invest €500 billion to address these issues, but without speeding up planning and approval processes, these funds alone will not be enough,"
"In recent years, the European Union has expanded its regulatory arsenal to respond to trade attacks. At the moment, faced with threats from Donald Trump, the European Commission is taking a phased and proportional approach. It is preparing to raise tariffs on a list of American goods equal in value to the additional duties announced by Trump, and at this stage without a desire to increase them. But the EU does indeed have a deterrent arsenal,"

“As a result of a serious shortage of personnel, the IDF is sending soldiers from the Golani and Givati Brigades to the Gaza Strip who have only completed basic training and have not yet undergone full combat training. Most of them were called up last December. The IDF took this step, in part, due to the reduction in the number of reservists reporting for training”
"Where will we find the 40 billion euros that the French Ministry of Defence is asking for? This question seems to be on many lips today. Very few solutions have been proposed to date to achieve this goal in the current budgetary context of France. In fact, caught between an already greatly worsened budgetary situation and fiscal or social reforms blocked by party politics and the lack of a parliamentary majority, the equation for effectively increasing the French defence effort to the necessary level seems completely unattainable"
