JD and Usha arrived to Greenland, waving to absolutely no one. In recent days, the American delegation has been going door to door in Nuuk, Greenland, asking if anyone wanted to meet Usha or JD, but everyone said 'no'.

As a former Chief of Party of a USAID project, I cannot help but reflect on the consequences of shutting down one of the biggest international aid providers (after EuropeAid, which has sadly had less PR). It is not just the aid recipients who suffer, but primarily US reputation.

BREAKING: Trump tells NBC News he won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House and that 'there are methods' for doing so

In Georgia, the ruling party is actively rewriting recent history, 'investigating' those who defended the country from Russian aggression in 2008, including journalists.

Unless, of course, you take someone who has paid no attention to the way the world has changed in the last quarter century and put him in the Oval Office.

Uzskatīju, ka man uzrādītā kriminālapsūdzība bija grupā izlemts pasākums, lai “noņemtu” no trases vienu ko KK un V reāliem konkurentiem. Un vienlaikus uzskatīju, ka kandidēšana Saeimas vēlēšanās šādā statusā būtu pretēja vērtībām, par kurām biju politikā. Tādēļ arī nekandidēju.

A sign of the times - opposition TV in Georgia closing down its broadcasting. In Georgia, digital format means it will now reach only a fraction of its audience. The coup by pro-Russian ruling party is getting cemented in the media space.

The dangers presented by unaccountable actors like the owner of Telegram, Pavel Durov, to European stability and European integration become clear if you read this update on Moldova.

🇺🇦 Slava Ukrainai! Varoņiem slava!

Manās acīs jebkurš Saeimas deputāts, kurš balsos par Stambulas konvencijas denonsēšanu, līdz ar to būs sevi pierādījis kā Putina propagandas iespaidotu. Te absolūti sen vairs nav runa par šīs konvencijas saturisko būtību. Nedrīkstam krist laukā no Eiropas vērtību kodola!

Lepna par jauniešiem un visiem pilsoņiem, kas šovakar bija pie Saeimas, neļaujot ievilkt Latviju tur, kur jau kādu laiku atrodas Krievijas sabiedrība.

Visu pūli ietilpināt kadrā bez drona nebija reāli, bet šeit, pakāpjoties uz sētas, dabūju, manuprāt, labu vizuālo reprezentāciju. Piketus reportēju gadus 10, pie Saeimas šis bija viens no lielākajiem pūļiem. Īpaši pēdējo gadu laikā pēc kovida.

Tieši šīs aklās vīzdegunības dēļ es – precējusies trīs bērnu mamma – 6. novembrī plkst. 19.00 būšu protestā Doma laukumā. Jo man ir kauns un nu jau arī dusmas. Un zaudēt, Jāni, neprot NA. No koalīcijas opozīcijā un nu arī uz vienu ideoloģisko roku ar Stabilitātei! un LPV. Fui.

Un maskas šai “uzņēmēju partijai” krīt, ja kāds vēl šaubījās! “LPV: Investori Latvijā nav gaidīti, ja vien tie nav no austrumiem iesūtītie”.

Ukraine and Moldova are certainly showing great progress, but the opening of negotiation clusters is up to the Council. Unless those Member States which are serious about EU enlargement do something about it, Hungary will continue to block this decision.
