Some highlight:


EU Parliament elections projection

Plot twist: In Slovakia the left made a coalition government with far right. The government that should be Russia friendly. However due to that the center left block of the EU has thrown out the Slovak left out of the block. However that event basically made sure that in upcoming elections center right block comes on top. Since the center left block lost volume and now even bigger gap will quite hard to close. What means that center right will get the top job and take various other positions to larger degree. What means that EU elections are basically over even before they actually started. Yes, there is a million details to settle, but in the big picture it basically obvious where all of this is going.



Germany — National parliament voting intention
Center right and far right are still top 2 parties.


France — President Emmanuel Macron’s approval rating
Centrist Macron is "just" 40 points underwater.


Estonia — 2023 general election
The centrists (yellow) have fallen under the far right (light blue).
Plus center right is making quite large gains (dark blue).


Malta — National parliament voting intention
The right (blue) has completely closed the gap with the left (red).


Slovenia — National parliament voting intention
The right wing (yellow) has surpassed the centrists (blue).


Sweden — National parliament voting intention
Far right (yellow) has overtaken the center right (blue)
They are governing together.


Netherlands — 2023 general election
New party leads. It is expected that they should declare themselves as center right.


Poland — 2023 general election
Mainstream parties won, now they are forming the government led by center right.


As I said a few times before: prepare yourself for right wing EU.

Apparently the average age of Ukr soldiers is 43 years old at the moment.

Also Isr is seeing its first real boots on the ground urban combat in Beit Hanoun (NE Gaza).

Heard unconfirmed reports of substantial losses there.

As i told you before: Ukraine is fighting it's war of survival. Because if they lose it the country will cases to exist. Especially since what we see in occupied areas indicates that forceful cultural assimilation would happen if they lose the war. While on the other hand they are fighting the opponent that is objectively stronger. Therefore when you sum all of this up basically the entire nation has to take some part in all of this, because this is literal fight for survival. However since everyone has to take some role that automatically rises the average age. Since this isn't some intervention overseas where you just send 20 year olds. This is brutal war with fighting that goes street by street on your own soil. What is totally different type of a war since fighting at home makes a major difference in dynamic for defending side. However I doubt that it is really 43 years old when it comes to professional army. But if you count the civilians shooting from their bedrooms this is probably the correct number. After all the average age of Ukrainian population should be somewhere around that.



While Gaza will be a bloodbath however you turn it.
