Ik woon in Duitsland. Hier worden nog steeds heel veel brieven verstuurd. Ik geloof dat ik twee weken geleden voor het laatst een brief heb verstuurd.

Immigrant refuses to learn the language of the country he moved to and goes on to feel unwelcome. What a shame. As an immigrant living in Germany myself I'd recommend he go somewhere else.
The important point, in my opinion, is that these refineries have been under direct German state control for years now. They only belong to Rosneft on paper because nobody wanted to jump through all the hoops to disown them. That would lead to endless battles in court and would likely require payment by Germany to Rosneft, which can be avoided by simply putting them under administration, as is the case now.
This is the reason why these refineries are already exempt from similar sanctions by the UK.
I didn't believe that specific rule to be relevant to the argument. The Democratic Party includes a wide range of opinions that, in most European countries, would be represented by several different parties. While there are some fringes on the right (Clinton's racists for example) and some fringes on the left (some Democrats even refer to themselves as democratic socialists despite being closer to social democrats in my opinion). The mainstream that has dominated all three presidencies you mentioned would likely find themselves among small c conservative or (economically) liberal parties in most European political systems that I know.
All I want is for iDEAL to be available where I live. It's ok if they change the branding. It's been working smoothly in the Netherlands for years now.
From what I understand the Democratic Party in the United States is a wide tent that includes people who consider themselves to be democratic socialists all the way to middle of the road, don't rock the boat kind of folks. While the former might feel at home in a European social democratic party or perhaps even a socialist party, the latter would likely find more common ground among the liberal (in the economic meaning of that term) or conservative/christian democratic parties.
The main difference I feel is that most European countries have representative democracies with proportional representation in their parliament. This usually avoids the lost vote effect if you vote for smaller parties. Therefore, what are usually the wings of larger parties in the United States, would be separate parties altogether in most European countries.
Having said that the core of the Democratic Party and the majority of people in power and office from that party over the last decade or two have been centrists at heart. Even when given the opportunity they didn't introduce any true universal healthcare. They didn't address the fact that the minimum wage doesn't reflect the rising costs most people face. They didn't address the rapidly growing inequality. They didn't move the needle on any public transport infrastructure projects. They successfully kept the country running and the economy growing while not seriously changing anything about the underlying structure of the nation. This is evidence enough for me to assert that the Democratic Party would probably be somewhere around Merkel's CDU, Rutte's VVD or perhaps Macron's party (whatever name it's currently going by) in terms of ideology.
Looks delicious!
The greatest trick the United States ever pulled was convincing the countries in its sphere of influence that they were allies on equal footing.
Thanks for sharing this insightful information! This seems to confirm the trend we all seemed to intuitively believe in.
But people going to random shops might have gotten more used to shopping online. I believe looking at similar examples if only just to prove a thesis we already believe in can be worthwhile.
Ich weiß; bleibt trotzdem meine Meinung, dass das so sein sollte, auch wenn es nicht so ist.

We love making Flammkuchen. It's easy and delicious and - most importantly - my daughter loves it.
Ingredients:
for the dough:
- 250 g flour
- 120 g very warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 50 g butter
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
for the topping:
- 150 g creme fraiche
- 200 g thick-cut bacon
- 1 small/medium onion
- 100 g gruyère cheese (optional)
- chives to garnish
Directions:
Start with preheating the oven to its highest setting (about 500°F/250°C).
Make the dough:
In a medium/large mixing bowl stir the flour with salt. Add the olive oil, butter and very warm water (from the tap). Stir with a wooden spoon until roughly combined. Knead the dough by hand or with a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment for a couple of minutes until the dough is soft and smooth.
Wrap the dough in plastic foil and set it aside to rest for 20-30 minutes (on the counter).
Assemble the tart:
Prepare the ingredients: cut bacon into small cubes. Cut onions into thin slices and sprinkle them with a pinch of salt (they will soften and not burn in a hot oven). Add the creme fraiche into a small bowl, season it with salt and pepper, and stir until combined.
Roll out the dough very thinly into an oval or rectangular shape and place it on a baking sheet lightly greased with olive oil.
Spread the creme fraiche over the dough leaving some border. Top with bacon and onion slices (if they released some water, squeeze it out). Add the gruyère cheese on top (optional).
Bake the Flammkuchen for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Baking time may vary depending on the oven.

Good for him. I suspect he speaks more English.
