Disarray in France and Germany is 'bad news' for EU
France's government has fallen. Germany can't expect a new one until June. Just as Donald Trump prepares to take office in the US, the EU powerhouses face political disarray and economic contraction.
Summary
France and Germany, the EU’s key powerhouses, are in political disarray at a critical time.
French Prime Minister Michel Barnier resigned after his government was toppled in a no-confidence vote, leaving the divided National Assembly struggling to form a new government.
Meanwhile, Germany’s coalition government dissolved, with elections set for February and no new government expected until June.
This turmoil, with looming economic contraction in both countries, threatens EU stability as Trump returns to the White House, potentially reigniting trade disputes and reducing U.S. support for Ukraine.
In soviet Russia destabilization programs you.
While Russia "helps" with destabilization, the failure of Neoliberal politics all across the world is the inevitable outcome of Neoliberal politics themselves. Problem is as they go out the Neoliberals make sure, that the can is kicked down the road to their fascist friends, rather than making space for progressive politics
pretty soon the leader of the "free world" is going to be spain.
Bring it over to Portugal. Nobody really knows how this country actually works but somehow we manage it. Maybe we can do the same with world economy and stability. Nobody really knows how those works, for what it looks like.
I, for one, welcome our new Iberian overlords
Maybe they should have done a better job, not like the next one will do better and EU is fucked because it's designed to fall apart, it's just happening faster than they expected.
