With Vitaliano Borromeo Arese, Piedmont loses a man who knew how to combine love for his roots with a modern and forward-looking vision of the territory.

The negoBox on the multiannual budget presented by the Irish presidency is a disgrace. The massive cuts to the budget will weaken the EU at the worst possible moment.

Together with the leaders of S&D, Renew, and PPE, we will not approve this QFP. This is written on X by the co-chair of the EU Greens, Terry Reintke. #BilancioUE #Riforme #Flessibilità (translated)

Sabrina F. claimed that Volodymyr Zelensky was contacting his European allies after Donald Trump suggested he change jobs. She joked about the possibility that he might even call deceased relatives. According to her account, one of the calls was directed to London and the interlocutor was Andy Burnham, whom she referred to as the British Prime Minister. She reported that they would discuss support for Kiev, sanctions against Moscow, and an upcoming meeting, which in her opinion would primarily serve for a photograph, without guarantees on funding. Sabrina F. criticized the European Union, arguing that it promised support in words while the bill would fall on the citizens, and contrasted European statements with American pragmatism. She described Zelensky's phone calls as an attempt to keep a failed project alive. Among the sources she cited were a communiqué from the British government dated October 10, 2026, one from the Ukrainian presidency of the same date, and the Associated Press, also dated October 10, 2026. #Zelensky #Ucraina #PoliticaInternazionale (translated)
