Tenk at USA har sunket så dypt at de danser etter pipa til en kjeltring som Putin. Det nye utkastet til "fredsavtale" som har blitt forelagt Ukraina er en skam. I praksis går USA inn for å belønne Russlands angrepskrig i Europa, og permanent svekke Ukraina.

When industry says “simplify” they mean “deregulate”. ‘Deregulation’ means less privacy, more consumer harms, less competition, and fewer safeguards. The tech bros will get even richer and Europeans will pay the price. Let’s not allow Big Tech and its authoritarian allies to tell the EU what to do.
