Seventeen years after the European Court of Human Rights ruled that Bosnia’s constitution unlawfully discriminates against Roma, Jews and 15 other minorities, they remain barred from the country’s highest political offices. balkaninsight.com/2026/11/10…

Merz reagiert auf Kritik von Fico, der die deutsche Verknüpfung des EU-Haushalts mit der Zustimmung zum neuen Ukraine-Milliarden-Kredit „Erpressung“ nennt: Die Ukraine-Unterstützung sei „eine gemeinsame europäische Aufgabe, keine Aufgabe einzelner Mitgliedsstaaten“, so Merz. „Deswegen gehört die Frage, wie wir die Ukraine in den nächsten Jahren notfalls finanzieren natürlich mit in den Kontext dieser Haushaltsverhandlungen.“ Er verstehe innenpolitische Befindlichkeiten in Ungarn und anderen Ländern, „aber ich habe umgekehrt um Verständnis geworben, dass der größte Beitragszahler in den Haushalt der Europäischen Union, und gleichzeitig das Land, das auch den größten Beitrag zur Unterstützung der Ukraine leistet, Wert darauflegt, dass wir diese grundsätzliche Frage miteinander klären. Und das steht in den nächsten Tagen und möglicherweise auch in den nächsten Wochen dann eben auf der Tagesordnung.“

The world has paid far too little attention to this atrocity. Komyshuvakha. 55 people confirmed killed. Another 45 remain missing. These people were killed while waiting for humanitarian aid. The world must not be allowed to look away.
The horrific moment a russian FAB-3000 struck a school where civilians had gathered to receive humanitarian aid. 31 killed. 48 still missing. russia is a murderous state. Stop pretending otherwise.

5⃣ Every Romanian who works ten-hour shifts in a German slaughterhouse "so that you can eat a cheap Sunday schnitzel has more decency than you," Fritz told Weidel. He also accused the AfD leader of spreading Russian propaganda: "Two weeks ago you repeated Putin's fake stories that there are nuclear-capable missiles in Romania, aimed at Russia." Fritz set the record straight: it is in fact a defensive shield with which Romania protects NATO's eastern flank against missile attacks. "And that is how we, whom you accuse of plundering, also defend your ass here," Fritz said, adding: "Today is a good day for an apology, Ms. Weidel."

I've been in politics for a quarter century. It's hard to express how staggering it is to see a conversation like this on corporate US media. The Morning Joe panel gobsmacked by the directness of @AbdulElSayed's points. (clip via @DropSiteNews)

Es ist amüsant, wie @ArminPetschner hier jetzt die Korruption von #Trump geißelt, während er hier und mit seiner Kampagnenplattform The Republic jahrelang den Trumpismus verharmlost und sogar versucht hat, ihn in die #CDU zu bringen. #Lanz

Pure genius. It’s almost as if we needed to create an organization for security and cooperation in Europe… Except the existing one has failed to prevent Russia from violating every single one of its principles.
NEW!!! Kushner says the Trump admin is pursuing a new European security framework built around sovereignty and territorial integrity, with no country holding a veto over another’s security alliances. The push comes ahead of next week’s U.S.-brokered trilateral peace talks with Ukraine and Russia in Abu Dhabi.

Are there any Christian Democrat politicians in Germany (and Europe) who would dare to say this in an electoral campaign? @BachmannRudi @Puettmann_Bonn
It's not hard to see why James Talarico pulled off a landslide as a Democrat in Texas. Just look at his campaign materials. S-tier operation.

wrote on the outsized role of Roma people fighting colonialism in the past and in today's Ukraine, which nobody talks about.

we do not talk enough about this evil massacre. 40 murdered, 30 are still missing — after russians drop nine mega bombs on a school in my home region. rescuers are struggling even to piece together body parts. russians pulverized the entire humanitarian aid hub and nearby shelter, together with civilians hiding inside. not a nation, not a country, russia is a death cult.
Russia dropped at least nine bombs on a school serving as a civilian shelter and humanitarian aid distribution center. Built just last year with EU funding, the facility had a reinforced basement designed to withstand attacks. But the double-tap attack, involving bombs carrying 1.5 tons of explosives, caused the structure to collapse and left a massive crater. The victims included civilians who had gathered simply to receive humanitarian aid, as well as police officers and emergency rescue workers. Horrific.

The blue wave is a reminder that voters will tolerate political chaos, corruption, incompetence and the disruption of alliances. But not higher fuel prices It’s the economy, stupid

Es berührt mich zutiefst, wie sich deutsche Parteien um einen vom Baum gefallenen Ukrainer sorgen. Sie hatte zwar auch etwas zu den 31 von Russland getöteten Zivilisten bei der Lebensmittelausgabe schreiben können, aber dafür reichte die Zeit wohl nicht. Schade

WTF! Bei @axelspringer bzw. der @welt verlieren sie jeglichen Anstand und jegliches Maß. Ein Medium, indem Redakteure sitzen, die so etwas freigeben - auch wenn es mittlerweile gelöscht ist - kann kein Mensch mehr ernstnehmen. Sowas liefert nicht einmal die Propaganda-Bude NIUS.

the funniest part is that trying to cancel someone for a meme that says Mao was a dictator has produced the largest global conversation about Mao being a dictator in decades

Amidst all the understandable joy over the change of power in Serbia, journalism must maintain a cool-headed perspective, including on the Serbian student movement and its spectacular success. For Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, I had a closer look at the foreign policy program of the Serbian student movement. It is a disaster. A summary in 8⃣ points.
