Europe has a new power house.

It ain't Germany or France.

It's Poland.

By 2030, it will dominate the European continent🧵: In 1989, Poland was the 6th poorest country in Europe.

Today?
Poland has overtaken Spain in GDP (PPP) and is closing in on Italy.

That is:
• 28 years of uninterrupted economic growth.
• A 7x increase in GDP since 1990.

Poland has transformed.

Trump is back in office.

He moved swiftly in his first hours, and has already signed 26 executive orders.

Here are the most impactful ones and what they mean for the U.S. and the world 🧵: Introduction of D.O.G.E.

Trump unveiled the "Department of Government Efficiency," led by Elon Musk. D.O.G.E. only purpose is to optimise how the American government operates.

How?
By streamlining bureaucracy, slashing waste, and cutting costs.

This entails a regulations and hiring freeze for the government.

I think my country is failing Greenland.

Trump’s push to make a deal isn’t the problem; it’s Denmark’s lack of vision for the island.

Here’s the current situation and why a U.S.-Greenland deal could change everything: 🧵 N.B: The Greenland situation is complex.

If you're just learning about it, I suggest you check out my last post on Greenland for some context.

I’m strongly in favour of striking a deal with Trump regarding Greenland.

Today, the state of Greenland is a mess economically and sociologically.

Here’s the big lines of why a deal with the United States is a win-win-win 🧵: First off, it's important to understand just how massive Greenland is.

At 836,300 square miles:

• It could fit Germany inside 6 times

• It is larger than Alaska and Texas combined.

• From north to south, it spans over 2,670 km

Vast unharvested potential.
