After a year of unheeded pleas about the situation in Gaza, we cannot continue with business as usual. I have proposed to EU Member States to ban import of products from illegal settlements and to suspend the political dialog with Israel. Read my blog: eeas.europa.eu/eeas/war-gaza-…

The end of the right to protest in the US has come: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

NO to the new arms race! Russia is an aggressor and Putin is a dictator. They have to be stopped. But Europe and Russia already have what it takes to start a nuclear war, a new arms race is not going to change that. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Paradoxically, the EU's new arms race implies we don't have the resources NOW to help Ukraine and serves as an excuse for Europe to not back its declarations of support with proper action. Europe has the means, but not the will and the courage to confront Russia.

Also, diverting resources from economic welfare to military defense will impoverish our societies and will bring the far-right to power. Our centrist governments are digging their own grave and bringing democracy to its deathbed.

I will be discussing a phenomenon I refer to as "Victimhood Olympics"—a dynamic in which both the left and the right excel—at the Women Against Fascism gathering in Brussels tomorrow at the Full Circle club: fullcircle.eu/event-6169814
