Seeing as you mention Putin, Dana, a quick reminder that he hasn't been allowed to set foot in the EU since he was indicted for war crimes in 2023, yet your president welcomed rolled out the red carpet for him six months ago: www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

Dana, here's another Reuters story for you. Like I said, please put your own house in order before you point fingers, especially at places you can't even find on a map. #Laignoranciaesatrevida www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Having lived and worked in the USA twice, I know how rife religious mania -- it's beyond "fundamentalism" -- is there in a way that's barely conceivable in Europe, and this man is shamelessly exploiting it.
My humble but sincere congratulations for capturing that beauty! I had the great good fortune to live there for four memorable years and as they say, ainda apertam as saudades.

"¡Vamos a tomar café en Huesca!" was the battle cry, I believe.
I'm not sure he understands very much of anything, above all because he is obviously demented.
Painting himself into a corner.
UK is apparently sending a warship to Cyprus, although it's not clear whether this is to do any more than defend its own bases.
Neither is it clear why the UK still has bases in Cyprus, which became independent in 1960.
