It seems the AMS-MEX flight is back to its original departure time of 22:25. Anyone know what is going on here? Can we expect more flip-flops in the rest of this year? It appears that the daily AM flight from AMS to MEX will depart at 15:15 instead of 22:25 starting March 26. This is a bit of a sham...

Jump to postLet me rephrase it: The US don’t want a too strong (= independent) EU. There's nothing for the US to worry about then. Because for as long as France sees the EU primarily as a vehicle to promote its own interests, the EU will remain as disunited and weak as it is. It is telling that a country like ...
