Правительство: народу «категорически нельзя» позволять принимать решение о членстве в НАТО

На референдуме шведский народ принял решение о членстве в ЕС (да), а затем и о ЕВС/евро (нет). С другой стороны, в таком важном вопросе, как сохранение нейтралитета и невхождение в военные блоки шведам нельзя позволить высказать саое мнение. «Абсолютно нет», — говорит министр иностранных дел Ann Linde (СД), и ее поддерживает премьер-министр Magdalena Andersson (СД).

Сегодня только одна партия, Левая, выступает за референдум о членстве Швеции в НАТО.

После нападения России на Украину общественное мнение изменилось и сегодня незначительное большинство поддерживает вступление в НАТО. С другой стороны, существуют разные мнения, является ли это изменение длительным или просто острой и преходящей реакцией на войну на Украине.

Third of NL residents would ignore democracy to solve complicated problems

In order to solve urgent problems, it must be possible for the government to limit the participation of opposition parties in the discussion and decision-making process. In order to solve social problems quickly and decisively, the Cabinet can take less account of the points of view and interests of different groups. A third of Netherlands residents agreed with these statements in a study titled Democratic Consciousness in the Netherlands.

A third of Netherlands residents are therefore prepared to temporarily put parliamentary democracy aside for complex and urgent problems.

“We don’t currently have a lack of oil, but we are doing it out of due diligence,” Lars Aarup, the head of communications for Coop, said.

20% less Grain Harvest in Ukraine will lead to huge Inflation

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has "affected a significant part" of Ukrainian agricultural production. That's according to a report by the British Ministry of Defense, published late Monday night.

In another intelligence report on military action in Ukraine, experts say Ukraine's grain harvest this year is likely to be about 20 percent lower than in 2021 due to reduced acreage.

Reduced grain supplies from Ukraine will generate "inflationary pressures" and raise world grain prices.

"High grain prices could have significant implications for global food markets and threaten global food security, especially in some of the least developed economies," the report said.

Once again the French forgo an opportunity to change course

If you take a quick look around the Western world, the French electorate’s myopia - if that’s le mot juste - is scarcely unique. Why, one might just as well ask, isn’t Geert Wilders the prime minister of the Netherlands? Why do the Swedes keep electing Social Democrats, even as their country burns down around them? How can the Canadians have returned the vile yet ridiculous Justin Trudeau to power? Yes, Californians are crazy, but even so - with their economy going down the tubes, their cities turning into homeless encampments, and their middle class fleeing en masse to Texas and Arizona - how could they have failed to recall the avatar of disaster that is Gavin Newsom?

Majority of Serbs do not want EU membership

For the first time, a poll shows that a significant majority of Serbian citizens are against the country's membership in the European Union (EU), BGNES reported.

44% of citizens are against Serbia's EU membership. Only 35% support the republic's accession to the European Union. 21% do not have an opinion or refuse to clarify the issue. This is shown by the data from the Ipsos Agency survey, which was released yesterday.

"For the first time since we are conducting research on European integration, we are registering a larger number of citizens who would vote against joining the EU in a possible referendum," said Ipsos director Marko Ulyarevich.

Нерегулируемый интернет угрожает основополагающим правам человека

В субботу вечером вступил в силу новый законодательный пакет ЕС, посвященный цифровым услугам. Цель закона — заставить IT-гигантов остановить распространение альтернативной журналистики. Это обосновывается стремлением останновить распространение «дезинформации» и «пропаганды ненависти».

В свете отчета от 2020 года принято решение бороться с «пропагандой ненависти» и «дезинформацией» в различных СМИ в Интернете.

В отчете говорится, что сочетание альтернативных СМИ и социальных сетей считается угрозой основополагающим правам граждан ЕС:
