So, after XX number of years Bulgaria can finally join the Schengen zone :d Just maybe

Not sure how this is your conclusion. As far as i know he resigned because he couldn't agree on a more strict immigration strategy with the other parties. If anything i would assume/hope that their immigration strategy will get more strict. Also i think that Austria is also blocking Bulgaria and Romania.

The Dutch cabinet has fallen last week, and now in the past minutes Mark Rutte has announced he will not be his party's leader at the next elections (probably in November or so), meaning he will leave politics. In favour or against him, it is absolutely the end of an era after almost one and a half decade.

 

Interesting to see even someone like far-right populist Geert Wilders talk about him with a degree of respect. Not so much for his political views obviously, but for his overall authority and demeanor, specifically mentioning his handling of Russia's crime of shooting down the MH17 plane.

I just read that VVD wants to nominate Yesilgöz. I can't believe it, this must be a very bad joke. A right-wing party nominating someone born in Turkey ...

Also after recently watching an interview with her, i am absolutely convinced that she is heavily "influenced" by drug cartels. It would be by far the best for the Netherlands to not allow her in any important position, otherwise they might as well just officially hand over the country to the cartels.

:ISR going through it’s biggest political crisis In years. I guess five mostly statement elections, or whatever number they’re at now, in the last few years couldn’t solve deeper divides over national identity.

    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
    • You prefer matches in USA , look at that ...    Tourists to US would have to reveal five years of social media activity under new Trump plan to enter    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/10/tourists-social-media-trump
    • I would say - he did not share some part of "the profit" with someone from above )
    • Yeah, a complete failure all around. Only two individual quotas for men and two for women + mixed relay. Cortina looks like a big fat zero in the medal table tbh.
    • But yeah, as you said, their intention (if I have to guess) probably is to prevent Pan America from having 3 teams without going through the world oqt.  They were generous with the world cup qualification because it's in europe and with 16 teams but they won't be as much with their prime event.   Anyway, this doc is terribly written and could bring problems without an update.
    • IDK this seems like a big mistake on their part. They should have excluded Pan America from the first clause.    And also shoulda clarify if "highest placed" in the second statement means only champion or "highest placed not counting possible pro league qualified teams".     
    • Thank god that Continental Cup is gone, it was impossible to find results in early rounds
