Many wrote about the impacts of Brexit on UK, but few wrote about the challenges facing EU.
This article is well worth reading.
I also think the hasty deal with China before @JoeBiden inauguration; ignoring Chinese HR record, was very unwise. @vonderleyen @EmmanuelMacron
EU leaders focused on maintaining unity against UK, managed to hide many deep seated differences.
Following #Brexit, however, those differences will eventually surface.
They are facing tough challenges on many fronts:
• Relations with US
•Handling #Turkey
•Countering Islamism
This 👇👇 is one example of #EU and its fake unity.
Many smaller EU countries resent #Germany’s Merkel bossy dominance but they are too coward to openly admit their dissatisfaction.
Instead, they leaked to American media. @vonderleyen @eucopresident @EmmanuelMacron
Tony Blair once said that UK is the bridge between EU and US.
The bridge has gone, and I doubt any other country can fill the gap, especially if Germany continues its current policies.

A top Egyptian lawyer appeared on Tv program @Elhekayashow with @Amradib to explain the details of #Italy’s Regeni murder in #Egypt.
This alone is unprecedented! 1/
The Egyptian lawyer says they are two parallel events:
The first, is a gang of Egyptians who attack foreigners in Egypt and steal their stuff, they were responsible for several attacks including Regeni.
He claims other foreigners reported similar cases since 2015. 2/
Same lawyer says that another unrelated event, in which one of vendors who regeni dealt with as case study for his research became suspicious of Regeni and reported him to #Egypt’s security. He asserted that security investigated the claim and found it wrong; #Regeni innocent 3/
The arrest of Sama occurred after attack on private recording for streamed performance in Jericho’s Nabi Mousa by group of young people after vicious campaign of misinformation on social media that fueled violent reactions against Sama
Sama Abdulhadi is a victim of Islamism, regression, and misogyny.
The Palestinian society now consider music haram? #NabiMousa
After arresting #SamaAbdulhadi, Islamist Palestinians flocked to the historic site of #NabiMousa and threw all the musical instruments, hotel furniture out.... As if they are liberating Palestine !
Those angry Muslims cannot differentiate between secular France, Catholic church in France, and democratically-elected French president. Blurring and blaming in a chaotic ignorant way. #Lyon

Blame or don’t blame @EmmanuelMacron, there is an undeniable fact:
The reputation of Islam and the view of Muslims is deeply tarnished in #France and many other European countries.
The loud liberal progressive who apologise for radicals are not the majority btw. #franceattack
American Universities and Think tanks are full of anti-western pundits apologising for Islamists and providing them with logical arguments justifying their horrid actions
In 2011, people used to laugh at the thought of possible funding from Qatar or Turkey etc, to prestigious think tanks.
Now we know it was true
Islamists have changed tactics. Instead of playing innocents and denounce terrorism ( not us mantra), they now openly condone murders and advocate it #BanMahathir@Twitter
