This Newsletter is the 10th published in 2025 and the 44th since the beginning of the Russian aggression. Pink is a color associated with calm and softness, with femininity. It may have been mocked for her mignardiness, its 'effeminate' side, or for the blissful optimism evoked by a life in pink. The flower has thorns. Geopolitics is not rosy in October 2025. The year was marked by sad anniversaries with the first atomic bomb dropped in Hiroshima (1945-2025) and a curious Cold War relaunched by Vladimir Putin since he came to power. In 2025, the unnatural rapprochement between the United States and Russia seems delirious - a paradox of the pink elephant? The Ukrainians have an optimism fixed in their bodies, a mental 'think pink' necessary to survive, 600 days after the start of a murderous war. The uncertainty about their future and the frustration of the hot/cold imposed by an erratic American ally are extreme. The European Union was not spared - subjected to a most rock'n roll, hard rock, atmosphere, «Guns N Roses» spirit, a Californian band born in 1985. The threats of the American team are implemented one after the other. The Europeans must finance at full price their security within NATO and face an all-out trade war declared by the United States which imposes leonine clauses on their 'ally'. Let’s decide to see life in pink, so as not to be discouraged. What would a life without thorns be ?
