In her speech at Vienna's Judenplatz, Anne Applebaum emphasizes that Europeans have the opportunity to choose the immense success of the European Union and collective peaceful cooperation, instead of returning to brutality and military dependence on powers like Russia and the USA. (translated)
The award-winning political scientist Anne Applebaum is right: "One effect of modern social media is also to confuse people about what is true and what is not, to undermine idealism, and to make people more cynical." (translated)
Anne Applebaum, Pulitzer-díjas újságíró és történész, a populista-autoriter erők európai hatalmának növekedéséről és a jogállami ellenállás lehetőségeiről beszél, hangsúlyozva, hogy a civil társadalom és a politikai mozgalmak döntő szerepet játszhatnak a tekintélyuralmi vezetők megfékezésében. #tekintélyuralom #AnneApplebaum #OrbánViktor
The beacon of democracy goes dark — The image of the ugly American always competed with the image of the generous American. Now that the latter has disappeared, the only Americans anyone can see are the ones trying to rip you off By @anneapplebaum https://t.co/1OeQBABGGD #Democracy #AmericanValues #SocialCritique #US
Trump’s Anti-Patriotic Trap: The president celebrates only some Americans. But patriotism is not about who is in the Oval Office. By Anne Applebaum https://t.co/aNDQGot0rA https://t.co/8ukISiz7U3 #Patriotism #Trump #AnneApplebaum #US
Ukraine has synchronized its foreign policy with the policy of the European Union and is treating Poland like a rag - @sikorskiradek, husband of Mrs. @anneapplebaum (translated)
Anne Applebaum podkreśla, że europejska jedność w obliczu wojny w Ukrainie jest kluczowa dla zmuszenia Kremla do zaakceptowania porażki i dążenia do pokoju, a jej diagnozy o kryzysie demokracji i autorytaryzmie stają się coraz bardziej aktualne w kontekście napięć w Europie. #AnneApplebaum #wojnawUkrainie #demokracja
«Putin ha presentato al mondo un’immagine falsa della Russia. Parla di sé come il leader di una società tradizionale. In realtà i tassi di divorzio sono altissimi, l’aborto è molto comune, pochissimi russi vanno in chiesa e meno del 5% dei russi ha letto la Bibbia. Quindi non si tratta di una cultura particolarmente religiosa o tradizionale, ma Putin si è reso il volto di quell’idea perché è politicamente vantaggioso. La usa per costruire sostegno, per conquistare simpatizzanti in Occidente. Un po’ come quando, negli anni Trenta, i comunisti sovietici vendevano agli americani e agli europei la l’immagine di quanto fosse meravigliosa l’Unione Sovietica e di come avessero scoperto un nuovo sistema politico. Se non sei mai stato in Russia, puoi immaginare tante cose. Puoi creare una sorta di Russia immaginaria, un’Unione Sovietica immaginaria. Specialmente se visiti solo Mosca e San Pietroburgo. Ma la maggior parte delle persone che ammira la Russia non è mai stata nemmeno a Mosca e San Pietroburgo. Oggi una parte della destra europea e americana usa questa Russia immaginaria come simbolo, senza capire che non ha alcuna relazione con la realtà». (@anneapplebaum) #Putin #Russia #Religione

Dear @anneapplebaum Please confront the illusion of Austrian neutrality. Why should — arming , defending NATO’s eastern flank, hosting millions of refugees and preparing for war — be expected to defend a neutral Austria that still refuses serious defence commitments? Neutrality https://t.co/aVOUceoLhM #AustrianNeutrality #NATO #DefenseCommitment #AT
🇦🇹 Neutrality does not protect Austria. @anneapplebaum It did not protect us from: • Russian influence • Cyber warfare • Terrorism • Energy blackmail • Geopolitical instability Austria’s real security already depends on: 🇪🇺 Europe 🇺🇸 the transatlantic alliance 🛡️ the NATO https://t.co/7WgTUk7kF6 #Austria #Geopolitics #Security #AT #EU #US #NATO
