I have the option for passkey login with Bitwarden (and believe I can export them too), or is this not what they meant with it is ‘exclusively in the hands of smartphone OS vendors’? Is it specifically the technology, then?
The example of Microsoft is not that strong either, because I had a business account 2fa which I only could use with the Microsoft Authenticator, so they managed to make 2fa lock-in too.
For some reason I only see it when viewing it in the original post on the europe forum. Even after manually adding it here.
I used Deepl to translate some relevant parts of the text, and I added them to the post :)
They are talking about sending soldiers (together with other willing states, like the UK) when a ceasefire has been established. A ceasefire has not been agreed on (yet).
A state can’t just become an EU member. Ukraine is a member candidate and now has to reach certain goals to make sure they have proper democratic institutions, reduced levels of fraud and similar objectives. Most complicated is to comply with not having a conflict on its territory.
Non-the-less, France has in no possible way the power to allow Ukraine to the EU, all member states have to agree to this.
On the actual article, one could see it as late, France might have good reasons for it, who knows. However, France recognising the Palestinian State would be considerable, because it is a state with quite an influence and statute. It might boost other states that say they support a two state solution to also recognise Palestine.
What I hope afterwards is that they also do more to make Israel abide by int’l law and negotiate on a ceasefire and for territorial integrity of the Palestinian Territories on the West Bank and Gaza. I do have my doubts though, because they seem to do little about Israeli incursions into Lebanon and Syria
Maybe he is trying to create a precedent for the EU to initiate article 7 of the Treaty on European Union and suspend some of his rights (voting?), and creating an argument to retreat from the EU.
On the other hand, I can only imagine the EU still being very important for Hungary an Hungarians and getting out of it would mean he is digging his own grave. If Hungary leaves the EU it would also mean that the EU has no leverage at all any more to show Hungarian democratic backsliding.
Makes one wonder where these people get so radicalised and how they manage to go so long without being stopped.
Fair enough. The whole ordeal of undermining the arrest order is quite frustrating (to say it mildly).
It also brings back memories about France, Germany, and others trying to ignore the order. I think Netanyahu is not going to try travelling there, though. There it might not be a political decision, but up to the judicial system. I hope the latter holds true…
I think m this was the reason he did not visit Poland a while ago.
They have only stated the intention, not an actual application for withdrawal. Also it has to go through parliament first, which probably is just a formality.
Article 127 of the Statute also states that ‘[t]he withdrawal shall take effect one year after the date of receipt of the notification, unless the notification specifies a later date.’
It would be a breach of the obligations Hungary has under the Rome statute, not a crime.
The ICC will probably start a case and will come with a statement that Hungary has not acknowledge the authority of the court.
I hate all the ai stuff that flies on the internet (because it’s low effort), but I have a soft spot for the ai-gif where Zelenskyy hits him during their Oval Office meeting.
