Harri Immonen named the liberal Western media as the culprit for Europe's accelerating collapse, if one party had to be chosen. According to him, the media had been directing citizens towards a leftist worldview for decades, and now this structure was collapsing. In Finland, the heaviest responsibility, according to Immonen, lay with Yle and Helsingin Sanomat. #liberaalimedia #Vasemmistolaisuus #Eurooppa (translated)

I signed this agreement with Luca Niculescu, the premier designated by the President of Romania, right before coming to the show, which stipulates the conditions he assumes in exchange for the investiture vote that the National Liberal Party would grant him. The interim Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan, leader of the PNL, declared that he signed the agreement with the designated Prime Minister Luca Niculescu on Sunday evening, the document stipulating the conditions that he assumes in exchange for the vote to invest the new government that the liberal parliamentarians are to grant in Parliament. #acord #deficit #guvern (translated)

“Whoever wants to go and do the bushes, let them go; we are not gardeners. Liberal Democrats with Salvini? We are not taxis to enter Parliament. We must be worthy of the people who are resisting in Ukraine; Action is a place where the spirit is high and idealism comes before everything else.” Of course, Calenda is ready with a reply: “Whoever wants to go and do the bushes, let them go; we are not gardeners. Liberal Democrats with Salvini? We are not taxis to enter Parliament. We must be worthy of the people who are resisting in Ukraine; Action is a place where the spirit is high and idealism comes before everything else.” #politica #centrodestra #alleanza (translated)

"Calenda has a problem: he thinks much more of himself than he really is. This applies to polls, and not only that. If it were just a personal problem, it would remain a private issue. But the point is that with this attitude he prevents the birth of a true liberal democratic pole. Everyone has already realized this, except for him," commented Marattin in response. #politica #centrodestra #alleanza (translated)

Tomas Jirsa questioned whether France still represented a model of liberal Western democracy and the pinnacle of positive European integration, at the head of which, according to him, stood the "amazing Emmanuel." He contrasted this image with France, which he portrayed as an over-indebted collapsed state incapable of ensuring internal security, relying on a glorious past and led by an incompetent egomaniac. #demokracie #Evropa #politika (translated)

In August, after a Russian bombing that also hit a pediatric hospital in Ukraine, Ivan Korčok, head of foreign policy for Progressive Slovakia (the main opposition party, liberal and pro-European), asked Fico if he had called Putin to tell him to stop bombing civilians, and if not, what the purpose of his good relationship with Russia was. #RobertFico #Russia #UnioneEuropea (translated)

Jones Manoel wrote that, according to a report from the newspaper O POVO, executives from Rede Globo met with Flávio Bolsonaro hours before a hearing to discuss the possible legalization of bets, which were banned by the Lula government. According to the report, the ban affected the financial interests of Grupo Globo, which would operate in this market through MGM Bet and advertising contracts. Manoel stated that the meeting should be debated because, while workers depended on the maintenance of their rights, executives from the network would have discussed economic interests and changes in labor legislation with a presidential candidate shortly before interviewing him. He also said that Globo was neither progressive nor defended democracy, but rather the interests of the elite and imperialism, and questioned how the financial interests of large companies could influence political maneuvering and journalistic coverage. #Globo #Política #Brasil (translated)

Ralf Fuecks said that decoupling the right to vote from citizenship allows political participation without a commitment to the community; a registration certificate would then suffice. In his view, the ideological, religious, and ethnic diversity of a liberal democracy requires a minimum agreement on basic values and rules. He believes that the demand for voting rights for all endangers the cohesion of the republic. #Wahlrecht #Demokratie #Politik (translated)
