Rheinmetall CEO Papperger said the war between Russia and Ukraine is unlikely to end in 2026, citing a lack of Russian interest in peace. He said Ukraine needs more support and the company can provide more air defense, ammunition, drones and tanks, but funding does not cover all needs. #Ukraine

Strengthening environmental ambition in the proposal for the CAP 2028–2034 - IEEP AISBL
This briefing evaluates whether the Commission’s proposals for the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) for the period 2028–2034 are fit to drive the scale of environmental and climate action Europe now needs. Despite some positive steps, the proposed framework could ultimately undermine environmental ambition if key weaknesses in funding, governance and performance monitoring remain unresolved.

Today, I remember the tragedy of the Parkland school shooting. As an infantryman and combat veteran accustomed to handguns and rifles––and as a licensed gun owner with a concealed carry permit––I am committed to gun safety. We must do more to keep our children safe & end the scourge of gun violence.

Rubio just made a speech to the European defense community in Munich that did not mention Ukraine. Or democracy. Or US business deals with Russia. Or the administration's plans to support the European far right. But there were lots of nice words about our common civilization.
