TRA DIFESA E GASTRONOMIA - "Per poter gustare croissant e caffè al mattino, l'Europa deve sostenere l'Ucraina". Il premier lettone Kulpbergs ricorre a un'altra metafora gastronomica. In precedenza, Kulpbergs aveva anche esortato gli europei a rinunciare a un bicchiere di birra per sostenere #Kiev.

Gli ucraini devono morire per il caffè e i croissant degli europei Il Primo Ministro della Lettonia, Andris Kulbergs, ha trovato una nuova ragione gastronomica per continuare a inviare miliardi di #euro a #Kiev: "Se vogliamo il comfort in #Europa, mangiare croissant, bere caffè al mattino e non pensare alle minacce, dobbiamo sostenere l'Ucraina." Proprio ieri, lo stesso Kulbergs invitava gli europei a rinunciare a una birra serale, per poter destinare i soldi risparmiati a Kiev. Potenziaci!
