2025-10-21 | Silicon Wafers 037 | Trump Stop Europe's €140bn Lifeline to Ukraine?Europe thinks it's found a legal-financial hack to turn Russia's frozen billions into a €140 billion, interest-free “reparations loan” for Ukraine. And just as leaders line up to back it, reports say the Trump White House is balking — raising “market stability” fears and casting doubt on G7 unity. What's the plan, what's the pushback, and can Washington block Brussels? And of course, the big question, I why Trump would do this, when the plan would have a significant impact on Ukraine's resilience, potentially turning the tide of the war. The plan, plain and simple. Here's the elevator pitch. The EU doesn't confiscate Russia's immobilized central-bank assets. Instead, it uses the cash stuck at Euroclear in Belgium (as Russian securities matured) to buy zero-coupon Commission bonds, and on that basis extend a €140 billion, 0% loan to Ukraine — repayable only when Russia pays reparations. It's ingenious and gets around many of the concerns that timid lawyer types had about simply handing the money over to Ukraine. A senior EU official framed the core legal line this way: “What we are proposing is not confiscation.” (The Guardian, Oct 20, 2025). Belgium still wants rock-solid guarantees that it won't stand alone if lawsuits hit Euroclear. (The Guardian)----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

Former Congressman from Virginia's 5th District Denver Riggleman took great pride in announcing that the January 6 Commission had asked him to take on the role of senior technical advisor. His role would be to use his experience as an Air Force intelligence officer to look for the participants and the organizers to get to the bottom of what happened that fateful day. Investigative Journalist John Solomon just published an expose that details how this association trampled all over the bill of rights and specifically how Riggleman's efforts made that possible. One of the folks in that report is Mike Howell of “The Oversight Project” and he sits down with us to go into why each one of us is at risk in out digitally connected world and how the Bill of Rights survives.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 17 octobre 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.Lionel Zinsou, ancien Premier ministre du Bénin et président de la fondation Terra Nova.QU'ATTENDENT LES FRANÇAIS DES HOMMES POLITIQUES ?Après la nouvelle nomination de Sébastien Lecornu à Matignon le 10 octobre, 56 % Français ne souhaitaient pas que l'une des motions de censure déposées par La France insoumise et le Rassemblement national soit votée, selon une enquête "L'Opinion en direct" menée par Elabe pour BFMTV, publiée mercredi. Ils ont été exaucés, avec le rejet des deux motions de censure jeudi matin. Le Premier ministre Sébastien Lecornu, a annoncé dans sa déclaration de politique générale qu'il proposerait au Parlement la suspension de la réforme de 2023 sur les retraites « jusqu'à l'élection présidentielle ». Selon le sondage Elabe, 67 % des Français sont pour cette suspension et 29 % s'y disent même « très favorables » et 38% « plutôt favorables ». 33 % des Français sont contre cette suspension, dont 13 % de Français qui se disent « très opposés » à cette annonce du chef du gouvernement. Toutefois, 64 % des Français sont mécontents de la composition du gouvernement et 51 % des personnes interrogées sont même favorables à une dissolution et à de nouvelles élections législatives.Dans la perspective de l'élection présidentielle de 2027, Jordan Bardella et Marine Le Pen se maintiennent en tête des personnalités suscitant le plus de satisfaction si elles remportaient l'élection présidentielle (33 % dans les deux cas), selon le baromètre politique Ipsos bva-CESI École d'ingénieurs pour La Tribune Dimanche. Pour la première fois, la troisième place du podium est occupée par une personnalité du même bord : Marion Maréchal, avec 24 % des Français qui seraient satisfaits. Cette progression de Marion Maréchal dans le classement s'explique par une baisse importante pour les autres personnalités, situées à droite et au centre, comme Bruno Retailleau qui enregistre une forte baisse (20 %, -7 points en un mois). Au centre, on observe aussi des baisses importantes pour Edouard Philippe (22 %, -3 points), Gabriel Attal (19 %, -5 points) et Gérald Darmanin (19 %, -5 points). Le pouvoir d'achat demeure la première préoccupation des Français (50 %, -1 point), devant l'avenir du système social, cité par 44 %. La préoccupation pour l'avenir du système social progresse de 3 points en un mois et de 9 points depuis juillet. 88 % des Français sont pessimistes sur la situation économique du pays et 67 % sur leur propre situation économique. Ils ont notamment le sentiment que la situation du pouvoir d'achat va se détériorer (78 %), tout comme celle du niveau de la dette publique (77 %) ou encore du niveau de la fiscalité (70 %).Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

In a remarkable set of events, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected two of the six representatives chosen by House Minority leader Kevin McCarthy to sit on the January 6th Commission. McCarthy chose Ohio Rep, Jacketless Gym Jordan who not only voted to overturn the election AFTER the insurrection but has repeatedly made up insane shit about the FBI being responsible for the riot. While Rep Indiana Rep Jim Banks, another MAGA blowhard has spent his time asking why Pelosi didn't do a better job of protecting the capital. This is akin to putting people who believe 9/11 was an inside job on that commission. Complete and total idiocy. Well, Pelosi kicked them all in the ass and now they got nothing. Later, SiriusXM's John Fugelsang joins Mea Culpa to discuss the creepiness of Jim Jordan and why the Evangelicals still love Trump.

Virginia Governor Sir William Berkeley has fled to the Eastern Shore with a small group of loyalist planters and a detachment of perhaps only fifty armed men. Nathaniel Bacon has occupied Berkeley's estate near Jamestown, and dispatched men to capture loyalist ships anchored there. Bacon's "navy" has out in search of Berkeley, but Berkeley turned the tables in an audacious amphibious attack and grabbed control of the Bay and the rivers. While Bacon was mucking around in the Dragon Swamp hunting notionally allied Pamunkeys, Berkeley recaptured Jamestown. Loyalist victory seemed at hand, but Bacon forced Berkeley to retreat from Jamestown a second time in part by grabbing the wives of loyalist planters and using them as human shields, and this time the rebels burn it to the ground. At the end of the episode, it appears that the rebels had the upper hand. Little did they understand that the loyalist cause was far from lost, and the rebellion was, unbeknownst to anybody, on the brink of disaster. My Substack Check out the new merch store!

Childhood chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, asthma, anxiety, and depression are rising sharply, with nearly one in five U.S. children obese and one in seven teens experiencing mental disorders On February 13, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14212 establishing the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission, chaired by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to address children's health The Commission identified four main drivers of childhood chronic disease — poor diet, toxic chemical exposures, lack of physical activity combined with chronic stress, and overmedicalization through unnecessary prescriptions The Commission's strategy rests on four pillars — advancing research, realigning incentives and systems, increasing public awareness, and fostering private sector collaboration, creating a comprehensive plan to reverse the health crisis Key reforms include stricter food safety rules, updated infant nutrition standards, greater transparency in healthcare, expanded mental health support, and partnerships that put real food and prevention at the center of children's lives
Ufi VocTech Trust and the RSA are delighted to unveil the recommendations of the Digital Badging Commission.Over the past 18 months, the Digital Badging Commission has brought together leading minds across education, technology, policy and employment to reimagine and define the essential steps required for digital badges and credentials to transform learning, recognition, and opportunity in the UK. Our collective vision is clear: now is the time for digital badges and credentials to unlock a more inclusive, dynamic and skills-rich economy. The recommendations offer a clear roadmap to revolutionise the UK's skills system by using digital badges to: Make skills more visible, portable and economically valuableSupport employers to source and develop the skills they needEnable the government to unlock talent and address the challenges of economic inactivity and regional growthJoin Ufi VocTech Trust, the RSA, Phil Smith and senior leaders from education, industry, politics and technology as we reveal the Commission's far-reaching recommendations for practical, transformative system-wide change. BackgroundThe UK's current systems for recognising skills and experience are not fit for purpose. They are failing to keep pace with the needs of learners, employers and the broader economy, contributing to persistent economic inactivity, skills gaps and stalled productivity. The weaknesses impact everyone: individuals cannot easily demonstrate their capabilities, employers struggle to assess them, and regions and national governments lack precise data on who has what skills and where they are located. Since its launch, the UK's Digital Badging Commission has engaged extensively with forward-thinking employers, pioneering education leaders, influential policymakers and technology innovators. At its heart, the DBC has pursued a bold, game-changing ambition: creating a trusted, unified approach to digital badges and credentials with the potential to transform the UK skills system. Our recommendations outline a roadmap to empower individuals to clearly showcase their unique talents, help employers identify the skills they urgently need, and position the UK economy to thrive with increased agility, inclusivity, and productivity. The Commission suggests that a UK-wide digital credentialing ecosystem, which combines formal qualifications and digital badges in interoperable digital skills wallets, could generate substantial economic value by addressing inefficiencies in training, hiring, and workforce mobility. Analysis conducted for the Commission suggests that such a system could reduce duplicated training across sectors, lower recruitment costs through faster hiring, and improve workforce retention through better-recognised upskilling. We're pleased to announce that Phil Smith, CBE REng, Chair of Skills England, will kickstart the conversation, followed by a panel discussion featuring some of the UK's leading voices in skills and innovation.Keynote speakerPhil Smith, CBE FREng, Chair of Skills England and the Digital Skills CouncilPanel membersDr. Patrina Law, Digital Badging Commission, The RSAProf Sir Chris Husbands, Co-Chair of the Digital Badging CommissionRebecca Garrod–Waters, Chief Executive of Ufi VocTech Trust and Co-Chair of the Digital Badging CommissionAlexandra Willans, Careers and Technical Education Partnership Director, Bradford CouncilAbout the Digital Badging CommissionThe Digital Badging Commission, a collaboration between Ufi VocTech Trust and the RSA, has explored how digital badges can be developed and adopted to strengthen the UK's skills infrastructure. It is working to design a national approach to digital badging and credentials, helping to recognise learning, participation and skills wherever they happen.

Send us a textIn this episode, Pastor Dom continues to teach about the story of David. 1 Samuel 15:1-31 Samuel also said to Saul, “The Lord sent me to anoint you king over His people, over Israel. Now therefore, heed the voice of the words of the Lord. 2 Thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘I will punish Amalek for what he did to Israel, how he ambushed him on the way when he came up from Egypt. 3 Now go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them…1 Samuel 15:99 But Saul and the people spared (king)Agag and the best of the sheep, the oxen, the fatlings, the lambs, and all that was good, and were unwilling to utterly destroy them. But everything despised and worthless, that they utterly destroyed.1 Samuel 15:2222 …to obey is better than sacrifice,…1 Samuel 30:1-4Now it happened, when David and his men came to Ziklag, on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the South and Ziklag, attacked Ziklag and burned it with fire, 2 and had taken captive the women and those who were there, from small to great; they did not kill anyone, but carried them away and went their way. 3 So David and his men came to the city, and there it was, burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive. 4 Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept, until they had no more power to weep. 1 Samuel 30: 6 Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.1 Thessalonians 5:1111 Therefore comfort each other and edify one another,…Ephesians 5:1919 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;Philippians 4:1313 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.John 14:2727 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.Matthew 11:2828 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.Hebrews 13:55 … For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”1 Samuel 30:8 8 So David inquired of the Lord, saying, “Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?”And He answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all.”1 Samuel 30:17 Then David attacked them from twilight until the evening of the next day…. 18 So David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away,…1 Samuel 30:19 And nothing of theirs was lacking, either small or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything which they had taken from them; David recovered all. Luke 6:46-4946 “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,' and not do the things which I say? 47 Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: 48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded (built) on the rock. 49 But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell (collapsed). And the ruin of that house was great.”Romans 8:3131 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Behind the Screen: The Impact of Cyberbullying on Adolescents and Teens Evaluation and Credit: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/medchat83 Target Audience This activity is targeted toward primary care physicians and advanced providers.

During the Brazilian military dictatorship, the Krenak indigenous people were banned from speaking their language, imprisoned in reformatories and forcibly displaced from their land. In 2024, the State asked them for forgiveness. Can it be granted? Journalist Pūlama Kaufman travels to the remote city of Resplendor in the south-east of Brazil to meet up with Brazilian environmental journalist, Cristina Serra. Together, they are welcomed into the Krenak Indigenous territory where they speak with Karnak elders, philosophers and community leaders. The Documentary uncovers the many layers to what Brazilian Civil Prosecutor Edmundo Dias calls an intentional, “genocide” of the Krenak, lead by Brazilian federal agencies. For decades, very little was known about what the Krenak suffered during the dictatorship, but now they are speaking out. And in 2024, the Amnesty Commission made its first ever apology to an Indigenous group when the president of the Commission got down on her knees in front of the Krenak.

In this powerful National Coming Out Day episode, Rick Clemons sits down with Brian Bond, CEO of PFLAG National, to talk about the organization's 52-year mission of supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and their families. From the history of PFLAG to personal coming out stories and the creation of affirming spaces across America, Brian shares how the movement has grown and why community support still matters more than ever, and how you as gay men over 40 can support and benefit from PFLAG Listeners will walk away with inspiration, resources, and encouragement to live authentically and help others do the same. Three Takeaways: The Power of Family Support – Why parents, siblings, and chosen families are critical in the coming-out journey. PFLAG's Expanding Impact – How 40+ new chapters are creating affirming spaces in small towns nationwide. Hope, Healing, and Humanity – Brian's personal stories of finding support, faith, and resilience in unexpected places. About Brian Brian K. Bond, a native of rural Missouri, joined PFLAG National in 2019. Under his leadership, the organization has experienced unprecedented growth at a time when LGBTQ+ people and those who love them are under assault in every corner of the country. This includes suing multiple states, including Texas Governor Greg Abbott for his abuse investigations into parents of transgender children, the first time in PFLAG's 50-year history the organization has served as a plaintiff in such a case. With an extensive background in constituency outreach and coalition bridge-building, Brian has also strengthened PFLAG National's deep commitment to ensuring PFLAG is a place where every family belongs. This includes the creation of PFLAG Connects: Communities, a safe, virtual monthly meeting space for families from typically underrepresented and marginalized communities. He also gained the commitment of the PFLAG National Board of Directors to invest in minority-owned depository institutions, a commitment to DEI that internationally recognized nonprofit leadership expert Joan Garry called, “…one of the most creative diversity and inclusion initiatives ever.” Prior to joining PFLAG National, Brian served in the Obama Administration as Deputy Director for the White House Office of Public Engagement and primary liaison for the LGBTQ community, the first to serve in that role. He also served in the Environmental Protection Agency as Associate Administrator for Public Engagement and Environmental Education. Prior to these roles, he served as the Executive Director of the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund; the Coalitions Director for the Climate Action Campaign in Washington D.C., and as Deputy CEO for the 2016 Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

“Shocking... but not surprising” - the words of Stephen Bush, Associate Editor at the Financial Times and Chair of the Commission on Racial Inclusivity in the Jewish Community for the Board of Deputies of British Jews in 2020. Stephen joins Nish and Coco to discuss the fallout from the shocking attack on a synagogue in Manchester last week. The trio discuss solidarity and protest, and why the government's response to the Manchester attack is not making all British Jews feel safer. Stephen has also spent the weekend in an all-but empty exhibition hall, at Tory conference in Manchester. It's a land of misspelt chocolate bars and retro racism - have the Tories given up the ghost? Later - Coco and Nish try their hand at some data analysis - introducing Pod Save the UK's brand-spanking-new diarrhoea index - before checking in on a bold new idea straight out of the Green's conference - abolishing landlords.

Paul-Adrien Hyppolite incarne cette nouvelle génération d'entrepreneurs français qui bousculent les codes d'un monde resté figé trop longtemps.Économiste brillant, diplômé de Normale Sup, il aurait pu suivre le parcours confortable et reconnu des grands serviteurs de l'État.Mais après plusieurs années passées au cœur du système, entre la Commission européenne et la Direction du Trésor, il prend conscience d'un paradoxe aussi absurde qu'invisible : pendant que les banques font fructifier notre argent, nous n'en tirons aucun bénéfice.Alors, en 2022, il décide de changer la donne. Avec son associé Antoine Michon, major de Polytechnique, il fonde Spiko, une fintech pensée pour que la finance soit au service de ceux qui la font vivre. En un an, Spiko a réuni plus de 300 millions d'euros d'encours et s'apprête à franchir le milliard d'ici cette fin d'année.La jeune fintech simplifie l'accès aux bons du Trésor, français comme américains, et devient très rapidement la référence européenne en tokenisation de la trésorerie.Leur première levée de fonds, portée par First, atteint 3 millions d'euros alors qu'ils n'avaient qu'un PowerPoint en main.La suivante a dépassé les 18 millions, avec un objectif clair : franchir le milliard d'euros sous gestion d'ici fin 2025.Dans cet épisode, Paul-Adrien Hyppolite retrace son parcours d'économiste devenu entrepreneur, raconte la naissance de Spiko, les obstacles réglementaires, et la puissance d'une technologie capable de rendre la finance enfin fluide, transparente et équitable.Une conversation passionnante et technique, entre conviction, vision et audace, avec l'un des visages montants de la fintech française.Bonne écoute !===========================

(The Center Square) – Despite federal pushback for diversity, equity and inclusion programs, Illinois has spent millions of dollars in the past few years for new, high-paying government jobs to increase the amount of state contracts that go to businesses owned by racial minorities, women and people with disabilities, an investigation by The Center Square found. Yet, at least on paper, the relatively new Commission on Equity and Inclusion is farther from its goal than when it began work in 2022.

Nathaniel Bacon and his army of volunteers have returned from beating up on the friendly Occaneechees (Occaneechis) on the Roanoke River in southern Virginia. It is election day, and Henrico County will elect Bacon and his sidekick, James Crews, to the Virginia Assembly, which has been called into session on June 5, 1676. This episode describes the dramatic session of that Assembly, which began with Bacon's arrest and ended with he and his army holding the Assembly at gunpoint. Sir William Berkeley, governor of Virginia, demonstrates his own flair for the dramatic along the way, but by the end of this episode has taken refuge with other loyalists on Virginia's Eastern Shore.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée en public à l'École alsacienne le 5 octobre 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.David Djaïz, entrepreneur et essayiste.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.LE PROJET DE BUDGET DE LECORNUUne première version du projet de loi de finances pour 2026 a été transmise jeudi pour avis au Haut conseil des finances publiques. La transmission de ce projet de loi marque le coup d'envoi du processus de discussion du budget. Le Haut conseil, un organisme indépendant placé auprès de la Cour des comptes, disposera ensuite de sept jours pour rendre son avis, destiné à être rendu public lors de la présentation formelle du budget par le gouvernement. Le texte devrait être déposé à l'Assemblée nationale au plus tard le 13 octobre, de façon que le Parlement dispose des 70 jours prévus par la Constitution pour en débattre.Le même jour, à la veille des rencontres organisées à Matignon avec le Parti socialiste et le Rassemblement national, l'entourage de Sébastien Lecornu a laissé fuiter quatre pistes de soutien au pouvoir d'achat en précisant toutefois que « rien n'est arbitré ». Il s'agirait de favoriser davantage les heures supplémentaires par une défiscalisation et un allègement des charges sociales ;d'alléger l'impôt sur le revenu des couples modestes : en améliorant le mécanisme de « décote », afin de l'aligner sur l'avantage accordé aux célibataires touchant des montants équivalents. De défiscaliser à nouveau les «primes Macron » les primes des salariés gagnant moins de trois fois le SMIC en 2026. D'encourager les dons familiaux en direction des jeunes générations.Selon le journal Les Échos, le projet de budget inclurait une « année blanche » comprenant le gel du barème de l'impôt sur le revenu et de toutes les pensions de retraite, ainsi que le relèvement du taux du « prélèvement forfaitaire unique » sur les revenus du capital. L'augmentation de la flat tax jusqu'à 36%, rapporterait 1,5 milliard d'euros. Le texte devrait comporter une mesure anti-optimisation centrée sur les holdings, certains contribuables très aisés y stockant de l'argent afin d'échapper à l'impôt. Des mesures seraient également en préparation pour lutter contre l'optimisation des Pactes Dutreil, cet outil fiscal conçu pour réduire la fiscalité des transmissions et donations des entreprises afin de préserver l'outil productif. Quant à la surtaxe d'impôt sur les sociétés, elle serait reconduite d'un an, mais son taux serait divisé par deux par rapport à celui appliqué en 2025. Son rendement attendrait ainsi de l'ordre de 4 milliards d'euros.Vendredi, le Premier ministre s'est engagé à ne pas utiliser l'article 49 alinéa 3 de la Constitution pour faire adopter son budget. L'idée n'est pas nouvelle : entre 1997 et 2002, le premier ministre Lionel Jospin, à la tête d'une « majorité plurielle », avait renoncé à son usage. Si les débats budgétaires s'enlisaient à l'Assemblée, faute de majorité, la méthode Lecornu pourrait dès lors aboutir à l'élaboration d'une loi spéciale ou par le passage du budget par voie d'ordonnances, une première sous la Ve République.SÉCURITÉ EUROPÉENNE FACE AUX MENACES RUSSES APRÈS COPENHAGUEL'Europe est soumise, ces derniers jours, à une série de défis : la Russie teste la capacité de plusieurs pays du nord de l'Europe à faire face à des envois de drones sur leurs aéroports. Elle viole régulièrement l'espace aérien de certains membres de l'Otan afin de mesurer leurs capacités de défense antiaérienne. Oslo, Copenhague, Munich ont été victimes des mêmes survols de drones non identifiés, contraignant les autorités danoises, norvégiennes et allemandes à fermer provisoirement leur espace aérien au-dessus de certains aéroports. Contrairement aux Ukrainiens, les Européens n'ont guère d'expérience dans le domaine de la lutte contre les drones.Dans ce contexte, lundi, Ursula von der Leyen, la présidente de la Commission, a dévoilé, une première cartographie de la « préparation 2030 », date à laquelle l'Europe doit être prête à se défendre par elle-même en cas d'agression russe. Les analyses des services de renseignement européens convergent : dans les trois à cinq prochaines années, la Russie pourrait être en mesure d'attaquer un pays de l'Union européenne ou de l'Otan si une paix en Ukraine lui permettait de se réarmer, et si l'Europe ne pouvait pas compter sur le soutien américain. Les États membres ont identifié neuf domaines capacitaires prioritaires dans lesquels l'Europe doit combler ses lacunes d'ici à 2030 : défense aérienne et antimissile, systèmes d'artillerie, missiles et munitions, cyber et guerre électronique, drones et anti-drones, combat terrestre, capacités maritimes, mobilité militaire et « capacités stratégiques habilitantes ».En vue de renforcer la défense du continent face à la menace russe, les dirigeants des 27 pays de l'Union européenne se sont retrouvés mercredi à Copenhague. Les discussions ont porté principalement sur trois axes : le développement capacitaire conjoint, les « projets phares » - comme le mur de drones ou la surveillance du flanc oriental - et la montée en puissance de l'industrie de défense européenne. Afin d'accélérer la montée en puissance militaire du continent, l'Union européenne a adopté en juin dernier le Security Action For Europe (SAFE), un instrument financier de prêts de 150 milliards d'euros. Environ 100 milliards sont alloués au flanc oriental de l'Europe : 43,7 milliards pour la Pologne, 16,7 milliards pour la Roumanie, 16,2 milliards pour la Hongrie. Cette concentration géographique reflète une réalité diverse. Chaque pays défend actuellement sa portion de frontière d'une manière légèrement différente, à l'aide de systèmes qui vont du plus sophistiqué au moins élaboré. Cette réunion sans conclusion écrite a permis de décanter des sujets qui seront finalisés les 23 et 24 octobre prochains lors du Conseil européen à Bruxelles. Objectif : combler les lacunes et favoriser des acquisitions conjointes pour lutter contre « la fragmentation de nos efforts à travers des initiatives nationales non coordonnées ».Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.
