Strengthen the EU. Use nuclear to fight climate change. Legalise and regulate.

Uncomfortable with a hostile world and our dependence on hostile interests? Me too. But while we're waiting for major strategic turnarounds, we as consumers can help European strategic autonomy in small ways by choosing local solutions such as these.

Always choose European, every little bit helps.

I'm mostly surprised that anyone is still surprised by the glaringly obvious. Europe certainly needs to speed up efforts to defend itself. Firstly by getting it's leaders to stop their opposition to unification and petty small nation perspectives. They will turn on us.

Dette er jeg enig i. Jeg tror det både er respekt å hente hos folk for partier som setter tydelige grenser, samt at dersom man faller utenom og stiller seg direkte i opposisjon, så kan man komme tilbake enda sterkere neste gang. MDG ser ut til å følge min anbefalte strategi for Venstre. Bra for dem.
Tror - tross deres garantier før valget - at det er fornuftig av mdg å trekke en grense. Det handler om partiets eksistensberettigelse, om de er for pragmatiske der, er det ikke noe igjen.

Honestly, the attacks on Belgium in this seems like it only serves a narrative fit to split us and sow disunity when the pressure should be levied on those who refuse to join ranks and form a unified shield wall rather than sending one man out alone. Use *everyone's* seized assets.
This is the thing, their demands of solidarity are reasonable. I don't understand why the other countries refuse to do the same as a show of force. This is on everyone else moreso than Belgium. They're not trying to stop it, they're trying to make it an unassailable position.

Realiteten som venter Norge dersom vi torpederer tilgangen til det indre markedet. Det eneste som lønner seg mer enn situasjonen i dag er å innta en posisjon med reell innflytelse hos europeiske likemenn som fullverdige EU-medlemmer.

Norge blir ikke EU-medlem før befolkningen merker konsekvensene av utenforskapet på egen lommebok eller fordi sikkerheten vår er truet - altså når vi har skikkelig dårlige kort på hånda eller det allerede er for sent.

Åååååå er det SÅNN det fungerer? Dette minner meg veldig om det oss V-folk sa som motsvar til MDG-påstander om at V har helt garantert å gi all styring til Sylvi uansett hvor lite politiske gjennomslag som evt ble tilbudt. Men det var MDGere lite lydhøre for. For all del stå på, men merk dette.
ethvert parti som stiller til valg sin fremste lovnad er jo så klart å kjempe for sin egen politikk. det ligger jo til grunn

at vi har gitt en slags blankofullmakt til at ap kan gjøre hva de vil uten mdgs innflytelse var et helt tullete narrativ fra dere i valgkampen og er like tullete nå

Miljøbevegelsen bør nok innsjå at at det er SP som sit med "bukta og begge endene" i forhandlingene. Dei kan truge med å gå til høgre, og AP veit at det ikkje er tome trugsmål.

V oppnådde langt meir for miljøet i løpet av 8 år i forhandlingar med FrP, enn det MDG vil oppnå som støtteparti for AP.

"MDGs store problem er at de ikke kan hente flertall i samarbeid med noen andre partier."

Something something fokus i valgkampen på vekst via kannibalisering av andre grønne partier kanskje ikke så lurt til slutt something something.
Joda, man kan gjerne se det slik Nehru Sand skriver, at MDG er et ettsaksparti.

Den ene saken han sikter til at altomsluttende og påvirker hele vår tilværelse, uansett hvor mye man prøver å se klima som en helt egen sak.
Er MDG helt grønne?
Miljøpartiet De Grønnes forhandlingsdilemma kan ikke forstås strategisk. Det er mer krevende enn som så. For MDG handler det om noe eksistensielt.

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

Folk (inklusiv professoren) vil ikke indrømme det, men Ukraine-krigen handler for Vesten om:

➡️ 80% geopolitik
➡️ 20% sikkerhed
➡️ 0% demokratiske værdier

Og for Rusland handler den om:

➡️ grænser
➡️ NATO-udvidelse
➡️ historisk selvforståelse

For Ukraine handler det om overlevelse... #dkpol

There is only one way to avoid Ukraine’s defeat and a split Europe: Russia must be stopped in Ukraine, peace must be fair, and Europe must finally speak with one voice.
