‘Hungary Bashing’ — Pressure by MEPs is Likely to Intensify in the Run-up to the Elections

The European Parliament is trying to do everything in its power to politicise and ideologise the disagreements between the EU institutions and the Hungarian government.

Changing the Horses in Midstream — Will Ursula von der Leyen Remain President of the EU Commission or Will She Take Over as NATO Chief?

‘But anyways, a changing of the guard is coming. And that means that Ursula von der Leyen—by the way, nominated, if not created, by former German Chancellor Angela Merkel—, just like Jens Stoltenberg, has to look for a new job. Pony riding is obviously no option for her any more. She is a political animal, a political wolf maybe. Too bad that there are technical and political obstacles.’

Japan and Korea — A Newly Found Friendship Despite the Troubled Past

The Japan-Korea reconciliation is good news for both countries, the USA and the free world, and bad news for China, whose aggressive and threatening behaviour and wolf warrior diplomacy helped catalyse the process.
