Two former top Trump aides advising the government of Republika Srpska “should cause a political firestorm,” says @SenatorShaheen, who is on a visit to Bosnia. “It’s being done at the expense of Bosnia Herzegovina & the unity to this country… This is not in America’s interest.”

Vodeća politička grupacija u Evropskom parlamentu, kojoj je PES nedavno pristupio u formi pridruženog člana, u današnjem saopštenju još jednom snažno osuđuje relativizaciju zločina Ratka Mladića.
Robuju prošlosti, svađaju narod seoskim temama i štite organizovani kriminal, biće.

Europe and Australia see the world in the same way.
And this joint vision translates into concrete actions.
Our Security & Defence partnership is fully at work.
Our Free Trade Agreement: about to be signed next year.
As of January, Australian researchers will be able to take part in Horizon Europe.
And we are both taking strong action to protect young people online.
This shows the strength of the 🇪🇺🇦🇺 partnership.

France and Ukraine fed Trump false intelligence to test whether he would leak it to Putin—and he did.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Ukrainian officials rejected this claim when it was first made in January, as did the source of the rumour. No evidence to support the claim has since emerged.

UK:
The UK remains a close friend and partner of Kosovo, firmly supporting its sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity.
We are proud of the role we played alongside NATO Allies in 1999.
Today’s judgment is not a judgment on Kosovo’s statehood and sovereignty.

HAGUE VERDICT UPDATE:
U.S. Balkan expert Daniel Serwer said Americans and Europeans should be “ashamed” for criminalizing a liberation movement they supported, calling the verdict and court “unjust.”

Canada just did the most sensible thing any American ally has done this decade. It looked at the man Americans put on the ballot three times, worked out that he is not a phase but the country, and started swimming. On Wednesday it reached the far shore of the Atlantic and found Ursula von der Leyen waiting with a towel and an offer no country outside Europe has ever been made. Trump called it a hostile act, which is what people say when the lifeboat leaves without them. New piece on what Canada actually gets, and why it is worth a great deal more than the headline. This 👇:

🚨🇪🇺 JUST IN: Australia and New Zealand Could Also Become EU “Associate Members”
Roberta Metsola, President of the EU Parliament, has suggested that Australia and New Zealand could follow Canada in becoming "associate members" of the EU.
This new status, between full membership and candidate status, would build on existing trade deals to enhance cooperation on critical raw materials, digital rules, and child protection.

Former Kosovo President Hashim Thaçi has been sentenced to 25 years by The Hague war crimes court for murder, torture, cruel treatment, and arbitrary detention during the 1998-99 Kosovo war.
The court found KLA members killed at least 96 people and detained/tortured 385+ — victims included political opponents and alleged collaborators of various ethnicities.
Three co-defendants including former parliament speaker Kadri Veseli were also convicted.
Crimes against humanity charges failed. The court couldn't establish a systematic attack on civilians.
Prosecutors had sought 45 years.
The court noted Kosovo's independence goal wasn't criminal, but the methods used to consolidate power were.
Thaçi has been detained in The Hague since 2020; appeals are expected.
The verdict is highly contentious in Kosovo where the defendants are seen as war heroes.

Here we go 🇲🇪 🇪🇺
Montenegro is on its way to the EU — and we want to help make it ready.
Today, we welcome our Montenegrin sister party @DPSCrneGore to Strasbourg for the first time as part of the S&D Group’s new informal observer programme.
A concrete step to advance EU enlargement and put our Willy Brandt Programme into action — making S&D the first political group to take this step.
We stand ready to welcome Montenegro into our European family.
Very well deserved by DPS.... With out which the whole process of EU accession would never had started. @alexsobel @Ed_Miliband @JashanicaVlora @FabianLeedsNE @ivanastradner @pg_citizen @campbellclaret
Ponosan sam na činjenicu što je Demokratska partija socijalista prva stranka iz Crne Gore i regiona koja od danas, faktički, ima dva poslanika u Evropskom parlamentu.
Ovakva odluka Progresivnog saveza socijalista i demokrata (S&D), druge najveće političke grupacije u EP, predstavlja veliko priznanje za ukupan, višedecenijski doprinos koji je DPS dala na evropskom putu naše zemlje i nedvosmisleno potvrđuje da je naša partija glavni stožer evropske politike u Crnoj Gori.

Andrija Mandić, Montenegro’s Parliament Speaker is the only high state dignitary in Europe who officially expressed condolences on the death of Ratko Mladić, responsible for Srebrenica genocide.
For that reason, @DPSCrneGore is asking for his removal.
👤 @danijel_cg: Inicijativa za smjenu Andrije Mandića je test za svakog poslanika u Skupštini Crne Gore – to je pitanje moralne i političke odgovornosti

📣 Another major⚖️ milestone for 🇲🇪 on its European path.
Proposed by @VladaCG & endorsed by @SkupstinaCG, another Constitution-amending was initiated today in order to strip the immunity of all current & future members of Government for any criminal offences against official duty i.e. corruption, thus delivering on 🔑 @CoeGreco recommendation, strengthening #accountability at the very top & adding #Montenegro to the club of #Europe’s 🥇rule-of-law nations!
➡️No office above the law. No political shield for corruption.
👏🏻This is what merit-based accession looks like. 🇲🇪🔜🇪🇺 #28by28
