Start giving Trump what he wants and he’ll just take, take, take until there’s nothing left.
And when we’re in a worse position than if we had stood our ground he’ll just label EU a sucker and go about his day.
Never give in to bullies. Even China knows that.
Pascal Soriot said innovation in pharmaceuticals ‘has mostly been funded by the US’
Mr. Dr. Chad here does know that Europe hasn’t invested as heavily in that sector because there was no critical need for it, right? Which now has changed.
That’s the whole point of stable economic relations like the one we had with the US until now, because there’s no point to every country producing everything as if they were alone when they can import whatever they don’t have from somewhere else.
Anyways, go and hang out with your fascist buddies if you want, as they continuously implode your whole argument of “US did more” by driving away scientists and other talent, as well as defund several critical health-related research projects.
Meanwhile, we’ll do our own thing and slowly but surely make up for lost time and misplaced trust.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, champ. I hear these days the US isn’t the safest place for health/pharma CEO’s tho.
I’m sure Trump will call it defiance, maybe even “illegal”, in his own deranged view of his position. Imagine Europe throwing a tantrum over the NAFTA or USMCA agreements.
I however, choose to see it for what it is. Sovereign freedom of choice, and prioritization of reliable partners. It has to do with the US, and we can’t deny it, but it doesn’t have to be solely because of them.
This is something we should have worked on since always, given the UK is still part of the European continent and not America. Regardless of past disagreements, here’s to hoping this time we learn to rely on ourselves without dependency on other world powers.
Europe has been weakened decades ago and needed assistance after being ravaged, but we can stand on our own now, without being subject to the whims and votes of another culture we don’t even have say in.
This shock was needed for Europe to wake up, and Trump shouldn’t be surprised that his aggressive approach will only cost him the same allies that prioritized and put the US first, giving it the global power it had until now, contrary to his “we’re being taken for a ride” claims.
Bought my Lenovo Legion 5 in 2022, IIRC. It’s Chinese, which isn’t ideal at the moment, but I do love everything it offers.
To your question, at least not american and my best laptop so far. Still holding on strong, both for gaming and work software.
Not confirmed beyond every doubt so far, as it’s still fresh news, but Anonymous seems to have leaked 10+ TB worth of files on Russian assets.
There’s a folder with Trump’s name among them.
Still, if it really turns out to be factual, the UK had already warned the US about this in 2016, before Trump was even elected the first time, to no avail. Some people just know evil is evil, and still choose to side with it.
Leading by example. Yes.
Show class and integrity, don’t just argue about the lack of it in others. Do what’s right, regardless of what others may think, regardless of the waves of negative opinions trying to dissuade or turn you against your own ideals by acting rashly and out of sheers spite.
I’m sure Vance would definetly know. He has his home TV, after all.
You can just tell he and the rest of Trump’s cheerleaders are trying to undo any progress made during the Vatican meeting.
“Mr. President, don’t fall for their manipulation, this war will never end, they wanna take us for a ride”. You just know it.
