Wait, what, #MarkRutte, head of #NATO, asks ** #Selensky ** to go find ways to talk with the Chief Oligarch again‽
I think he's mixing something up there, and I had expected better of a European politician.
Any #Dutch constituents want to give him a piece of their mind ...?

"Peace through strength" is a slightly too simplistic and naive statement, oddly reminding us about "arbeit macht frei"or "peace in our time"...
What these (claimed) intentions are specifically lacking is *ethics* and coherence.
That (military) strength is merely one leg of a stool; if all the other "legs" of your country are empowering and financing those hostile and despotic states threatening democracy and #humanrights globally e.g. through trade and business.. isn't it the very definition of madness infused with greed and indifference? 🤯
I have watched our oh so noble and democratic countries empower and finance hostile dictatorships like #CCP #china and #russia for three decades since (and despite!) the Tiananmen massacre and the nominal end of Cold War (note: the CCP refused to receive *that* memo!).
There can be no real "peace through strength" with *morals* so weak.
We need to start favouring *democracies* globally instead of empowering our enemies. If we'd done that all along... 🤷🏻♂️

After viewing this incredibly insightful video by @anderspuck, the only question I have is:
*How can we make absolutely sure that #markrutte views it?*
The video explains the imperative nature of #zelenskyy 's victory plan. And why this is not a wishlist where the allies may choose which to fulfill.
The culmination of the video is - o irony - a clear "Z" describing the path to russia's defeat.

Netherlands: How the Curtains Fell for Mark Rutte’s 13 Year Premiership.
The past few weeks have been anything but calm in Dutch politics. The fourth government led by Prime Minister Mark Rutte collapsed.
An end is finally coming for Rutte’s 13 year-long premiership, the longest in Dutch history. How the curtains fell for ‘Teflon Rutte’, of whom people jokingly said his political career would never stop.
Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte says he will step down from politics after this autumn's snap general election, a decision that marks the career end of the longest-serving head of government in Dutch history.
Rutte, who has led four coalition governments since 2010, announced the collapse of his current four-party coalition on Friday, following internal disputes over the tightening of Dutch asylum policy.
