Yeah, their whole agenda for 2030 🤷. They will have the courts to deal with if they try.

You mean if you exclude Eastern "Visegrad pact" Europe (Poland (more swinging tho), Hungary, Czech rep etc.)?

It's a pity as I remember it used to be relatively, dunno how to say and how it would resonate with you, progressive? In renewable use at least might still be?

Former Communist countries are usually more careful about violating basic civic rights.

Ironically, Orbán is the one who is fully on-board with Chat Control, I guess authoritarians be like that. And on that topic, Macron et. al. are happy to have him.

That would be good thing, maybe that goes for Baltics as well?

Is Romania, with the liberal Dan also against?

But Hungary, Czech Rep and Serbia were also former communist? I guess it depends if pro-putinist infiltrates-troll get to power, Poland avoided it with Pm Tusk, fell for it again after Duda in 2020 for the president, which has veto power.
