So, Paris is waiting for Berlin to keep up EU connections in W Africa. But those are already, to use a common term, flawed. Germany shares some of France's problems but not its bad reputation. I will presently turn my attention to the Horn, but what is the common mistake? ⬇️
There are conceptual problems as well as more directly strategic ones. The eminent French political scientist, Jean-François Bayart, has pointed to both in a remarkable interview with @guillaumeerner . Let me mention the strategic ones first.
Die @GBA_b_BGH macht sich zum Instrument eines kremlnahen Regimes, bei dessen durch Proteste gestörten Veranstaltungen zum Genozid in Tigray UND der Ukraine aufgerufen u Flüchtlinge u bundesdt Schutz v eritr. Paramilitärs, Eriblood, mit Tod bedroht werden. Sachbesch. ≠ Terror.
@GBA_b_BGH : Eritrea wird gerade nach Völkerstrafrecht in D angeklagt. Warum erfahren die Veranstaltungen und die paramilitärische Gruppe des Regimes EriBlood, deren Existenz in D kein Geheimnis ist, keinerlei strafrechtliche Verfolgung? Ist D souverän?
This is a very useful tweet, because it's utter nonsense. But being a genius, Kasparov - who was right on Putin all along & whom I admire - summarises the whole conundrum of silliness into one oxymoron:
Now, I don't think it's got any precise meaning; obviously, a sentiment can be many things, including "true", but as opposed to "feigned" only. It can't be correct or false.
But isn't the whole current debate about having the correct sentiments?
