At this point, I can't see how the EU survives. It's under huge economic strain, the US is bailing on Europe, and we're seeing nationalist parties becoming the dominant force in Germany, France, and the UK. I'll be shocked if the EU can last another half decade the way things are going.

Unless there is a successful coup wouldn't this then force Belgium's hand to be more cooperative with Russia and China especially in terms of trade?

Doubt it, Belgians are one of the more Russophobic countries in Europe. It's not out of any love for Russia that they refuse to hand the funds over, it's cause they know it would be economic suicide to do that.

I wonder of the change in their material conditions would change the cultural relationship with Russia.

Also you guys are aware that prime minister Bart De Wever (NVA). The NVA, is nationalist/conservative essentially far-right, and his shit party and his shit "arizona" coalition did nothing for Belgium since they got elected in. This whole coalition is just a waste of money. So pls dont sympathise with him, stand in solidarity with the Belgian people .

Ja... and to be honest, we're not necessarily pro-Axel Springer nor pro-Arizona as much as we're anti-EU, which, well, do we have to explain?

Also, anti-NATO, since you know, NATO's just an western anti-Soviet and now anti-Russian organization, used to fulfill mainly Washington's needs, mainly offensive yet mostly indirect, as US lets its proxies do the fighting, and those proxies include the EU.
