    Suspension of 🇷🇺 -NATO relations is recognition that there are no relations to keep anymore.However,it neither presages a new crisis in Europe nor prevents comms in crisis.SACEUR,not SG,is key person,& he’s an American.🇷🇺🇺🇸Chiefs of Staff meet in person.Managed confrontation.

    Dat is ook een manier om onder sancties uit te komen. Doet me aan die uitspraak denken "You've got lies, you've got damned lies, and you've got (trade) statistics".

    Due to mounting US and EU sanctions, Belarusian statistics hid almost 15% of the country's exports to Russia amounting to $1.3 bn - Belstat began to classify info not only about gasoline and fertilizers, but also about tractors.

    Net op journaal over het nieuwe dieptepunt in relaties tussen de en na uitzetting diplomaten. Ook al heeft het weinig directe gevolgen omdat er niet zoveel dialoog meer over was, toch is het zorgwekkend voor langere termijn.

    Good piece by for on polarisation of society in - including on foreign policy. A growing share wants further integration with Russia, while "supporters of the protest movement are increasingly warming to the West".

    Echt een wereldplek om te werken, zowel zelf als het mooie park waarin het instituut staat. Ik moet er nog steeds aan wennen dat mensen trouwfoto's maken bij ons voor de deur, of dat er kano's onder m'n kantoor door varen...

    Autumn has arrived at 🍂 Come for a walk in the park and visit the Japanese garden with beautiful rare plants and trees 🌳 The garden will open on Saturday 16 October. Plan your visit (daily 10am-4pm) >

    Spent some time this morning parsing Medvedev's latest 'polemic' on in «Ъ». Another frontal attack on Zelensky: "weak", "internally torn", "no point in speaking to the vassal", "Talleyrand" and more Kremlin history lessons. Not an optimistic read.

    So what does the EU do to pressure Lukashenka in response to the migration crisis he cynically created? Make visas slightly more expensive for officials, many of whom are already on sanction lists anyway “The measure is largely symbolic”. Understatement
