The ambiguity of China’s response to Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine was also a harsh wake-up call to the fact that Europe cannot afford to be in a dependent or even overly interdependent economic relationship with China. The CCP already has a record of using its growing economic power to show its displeasure with European foreign policy. It threatened British exports and refused any official trade visits after Prime Minister Cameron met the Dalai Lama in the UK in 2012. Norway saw its exports of salmon to China banned after the Nobel Committee awarded the Peace Prize to the Chinese human rights campaigner Liu Xiaobo in 2013. And Lithuanian exports to China were banned in December 2021 after political leaders in Vilnius changed the name of their Taiwan Representation Office. This affected not only exports from Lithuania, but those of other EU member businesses that contained Lithuanian components.
“How is death and slavery peace?" Rin spat. "I have lost my friends and my country. I have lost everything I care about. I don' want peace, I want revenge.”
I’ve made peace with grief.I let it kiss me on the cheek and tuck me into bed.I know it will greet me when I wake up again.grief holds my hand as I walk down the street.I taste it on my tongue with everything I eat.I don’t fight it anymore,grief always wins the war.it fills me up when I feel hollow,and reminds me that one day,there will be no tomorrow.

"Ah canım, ne düşünüyorum? Her şeyi karıştırdım. Moskova'da o kadar çok akraba var ki! Yani sen Borís misin? Elbette. Artık nerede olduğumuzu biliyoruz. Boulogne seferi hakkında ne düşünüyorsunuz?

"Duyduğuma göre," dedi Pierre kızararak ve konuşmaya girerek, "neredeyse tüm aristokrasi zaten Bonaparte'ın safına geçti."
Vikont Pierre'e bakmadan, "Bunu söyleyenler Buonapartistler," diye yanıtladı. "Şu anda Fransız kamuoyunun gerçek durumunu bilmek zor."
Prens Andrew alaycı bir gülümsemeyle "Bonaparte öyle söyledi" dedi.
Vikontu sevmediği ve ona bakmadan da olsa sözlerini ona yönelttiği açıktı.
Prens Andrew, kısa bir sessizliğin ardından, yine Napolyon'un sözlerinden alıntı yaparak, "Onlara zafere giden yolu gösterdim ama onlar bu yolu izlemediler" diye devam etti. “‘Ön odamı açtım ve içeri doluştular.’ Bunu söylerken ne kadar haklı olduğunu bilmiyorum.”
"Hiç de değil," diye yanıtladı vikont. "Dük'ün öldürülmesinden sonra en tarafsız olanlar bile onu bir kahraman olarak görmeyi bıraktı.

Germany at the turn of the century seemed to be moving in the right direction toward democracy. Then came World War I, which killed 2 million Germans and left the country devastated and was closed with the punitive and humiliating peace of Versailles. The years after Versailles saw the mass flight of ethnic Germans from Poland, Russia, and other eastern lands into Germany (a migration that produced immense social turmoil); hyperinflation; and finally the Great Depression. The liberalizing strains in German society were overwhelmed by much darker ones, and political order collapsed. In particular, hyperinflation-which Niall Ferguson has aptly called an "anti-bourgeois revolution"-wiped out the savings of the middle class and utterly alienated them from the Weimar Republic. The country became easy prey for extreme ideologies and leaders. It is common to read history backward and assume that Germany was destined to become what it became under Hitler. But even the United Kingdom and the United States had their ugly sides and desperate demagogues who grew in strength during the Great Depression. Had those countries gone through twenty years of defeat, humiliation, chaos, economic depression, and the evisceration of their middle classes, perhaps they, too, would have ended up being governed by demagogues such as Huey Long and Oswald Mosley rather than the statesmen Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill.

Post-WWI Germany
In the early summer of 1919 the harsh terms of the Versailles peace treaty were revealed. Scheidemann’s cabinet resigned and was succeeded by the Bauer cabinet, which sent a delegation to sign the Versailles Treaty on 28 June. Germany was to lose large areas of land: Alsace-Lorraine was to be returned to France, West Prussia, Upper Silesia and Posen were to go to the newly reconstructed Poland, Danzig was to become a free city under League of Nations supervision, with the ‘Polish Corridor’ separating East Prussia from the rest of Germany. Germany was deprived of colonies, and any union of Germany and Austria was forbidden. The army was limited to 100,000 men, and the left bank of the Rhine was to be demilitarised under Allied supervision, with Allied occupation to be phased out over a period of time. In the notorious ‘war guilt clause’ Germany was burdened with responsibility for the war.
The soldier above all other people,” said MacArthur, “prays for peace, for they must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.” There is wisdom in the words of these soldiers. There is wisdom in these tales of a “handful of ashes, a mouthful of mould. / Of the maimed, of the halt and the blind in the rain and the cold.” There is wisdom here, and we would do well to listen

Mutluluk anlarını yakalayın, sevin ve sevilin! Dünyadaki tek gerçek budur, geri kalan her şey aptallıktır. Burada ilgilendiğimiz tek şey bu.
Even the United States owed its great-power status to military action rather than economic enterprise alone. In 1846 it invaded Mexico, and conquered California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and parts of Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming and Oklahoma. The peace treaty also confirmed the previous US annexation of Texas. About 13,000 American soldiers died in the war, which added 2.3 million square kilometres to the United States (more than the combined size of France, Britain, Germany, Spain and Italy).
