South Korea will now only send weapons that maim and terrify.

Now you are just misinterpreting my points and starting to sound silly.
Refugees and migrants are two different groups. Migrants are long term residents. Refugees are not.
The fact that it is common does not mean it is a good practice.
IF there was decent AI translation, the whole issue would not be existant, would it?
I am quite happy to be able to discuss with you in a foreign language, without the help of AI. It means I am independent, which is a kind of freedom that, to me, belongs to feeling human.
Whilst I agree with some of your points, the notion that Europe “may be bad at migration” and being “shit” to others whilst protecting their culture comes of as uninformed at best and holier than thou preachy at worst.
No one is under the illusion that a migrant has to speak perfectly. But they should be competent enough to function in order to integrate into the society.
I have plenty of experience in my social circle where this is not the case. Those people rely on friends and family when it comes to simple tasks such as doctor appointments.
Concerning the language issue, it does not matter that a language is “globally niche”.
If people want to migrate to a specific country long term, the spoken language has to be learned to become a member of society and prevent the forming of parallel societies.
The PS2 is the best Sony system to me.
Back when it came out, it was so much better than everything else up to this point.
This, coupled with many games that started fanchises and/or were highly stylish and creative, and had new Equipment (GuitarHero, SingStar, EyeToy) make it the GOAT.
One side clearly is the aggressor here. To pick their side is not a good look and makes other countries question China’s intentions.
So if I am reading this correctly, the problem is that UK students are not interested in going abroad (weak foreign language skills) and many Continental European students want to come to the UK (as almost everyone is learning English).
This means the UK has to pay more money than it receives.
But with this money, they would be ‘buying’ the chance to hold the interest of highly educated young people, who might love the British way of life and come back to work in the UK…
Sounds like just another step into economical and cultural irrelevancy.
European view here, with a question:
I understand the US has always stood by Israel. Some reasons geopolitical, some religious and some business related.
Wouldn’t every president who would actively block military or financial aid to Israel or even whisper the word sanctions be a pariah in his own government?
How would the media react?
How would the big players and decision makers in politics, religion and business react?
Education and equal opportunity provides more compelling life options then just staying at home raising kids.
The main problem is, that these options are a mere theory for many when two people in a household have to work to make ends meet.
The raising of kids is then just something that comes on top of the existing burdens.
Watch Scotland and Wales ask a unified Ireland if they can join them too.
Power is the major reason.
I also would not be surprised if powerful people have to do something sinister as an initiation rite that could be held against them in the future.
Like a dangling sword, should they feel just TOO powerful to toe the line.
How original.
Is it the same rap order that made the rounds on YouTube 15 odd years ago?
And while she looks so sad in photographs, I absolutely love her
Ah yes. This is how the company apparently justifies it. Right in the article.
Company that mines nickel for ‘green’ electric cars destroys forest in doing so. Ironic
They just come south to sing the praises and advertise for tourism
You needed less than 10 days to start a trend! Quite cool if you ask me.
I think the main problem is not really the number of people that are due to leave.
Most people tend to see and experience the other numbers you mentioned, i.e. 81 Mio vs 84,5 Mio.
How much of this increase can be attributed to organic population growth? How much of it is due to welcoming refugees?
54k really is ridiculously low, but I think an increasing amount of people do not know or care about this number. They just feel their lifes getting harder (not enough housing, food prices, stressed health systems…) and helplessly point their fingers on the seemingly easiest solution.
Too late.
I am offended beyond belief
