Article 122 comes with a double advantage: it bypasses the European Parliament and only requires a qualified majority, so it helps the EU act fast.
The Commission proposed using Article 122 to prohibit the return of sovereing assets to Russia.
In practice, an indefinite ban.

It is worth recalling that on March 16, 2022, approximately 600 civilians who were sheltering from the Russian army were killed there in a Russian airstrike. The word "Children" was written on the square in front of the theater, but this did not stop the attack.

Marianne Vaatstra werd verkracht en vermoord door een Friese boer, Caroline, uit jóuw doelgroep. Het naastgelegen AZC kreeg de schuld. Als er geen groot DNA-onderzoek was gekomen was het altijd in het duister gebleven.

Als Oekraïne de oorlog verliest, staat Poetin bij ons aan de poort – zo simpel is het
Europa heeft zich door de kabbelende geschiedenis in slaap laten wiegen, schrijft Caroline de Gruyter. Nu is het bij elke gebeurtenis blinde paniek.

We aren’t going to defeat fascism with a politics-as-usual approach.
So we’re gearing up for a massive primary program to put forward a new wave of candidates who can win at the ballot box and in the battle to defend democracy.

De Europese Unie is het enige instituut de de Amazons en Googles van deze wereld aankan. Dan weet u gelijk waarom Trump en Musk 'Brussel' kapot willen hebben en extreemrechts in Europa aan de macht wil zien. Weg met werknemers-, vrouwen en homorechten. Musk is extreem anti-vakbond.

While passenger planes fly across the skies over Europe, in Ukraine the skies are filled with Russian missiles and drones. One continent, but two different realities.

Mensen met een hoger inkomen blijken bij diagnose van niet-kleincellig longcarcinoom vaker een gemetastaseerde tumor te hebben dan mensen met een lager inkomen. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van IKNL en verschillende Nederlandse ziekenhuizen.

Over the last year, you could have given into anger and despair.
Instead, you’ve organized in the largest numbers this country has ever seen to reclaim the power of the pro-democracy majority.
We could not be more thankful for you and everything you’re doing to defy Trump’s agenda.

We still need to get from a situation where Russia pretends to negotiate to a situation where they need to negotiate.

Remember: In 2022, as Russia stormed toward Kyiv, Biden urged Zelensky to flee while Europe's inaction piled on the ultimate pressure for Ukraine to surrender & capitulate. Ukraine persevered, defeating Russia in the Battle for Kyiv despite all odds.
