Shocking Data Shows Massive Demographic Transformation In Europe
'Ominous winds are blowing in the West,' economist Géza Sebestyén posted on his Facebook page, along with some astonishing data.
'According to the latest Austrian statistics, one-third (32.8%) of primary school pupils in Austria are non-native German speakers. In cities, the proportion is even higher: in Salzburg, for example, one in two children (51.8%) do not speak German at home,' he noted.
The post featured a map breaking down each region of Austria, showing the huge share of children not speaking German at home as their first language.
Sebestyén, the head of the MCC Economic Policy Workshop, showed that Hungary could have ended up like Austria if it had not followed the policies of Viktor Orbán, who sealed the border and rejected mass immigration. He warned that Hungary could feature a multiculturalism that Austrians increasingly find alienating and fraught with crime.

'In some districts of Vienna,' his post continues, 'the situation is already dramatic: in Brigittenau and Margareten, the proportion of people who do not speak German in the family environment is over 80%.'
Sebestyén called the latest data 'signs of social transformation that are shaping the future of Europe,' a trend that, if continued, will lead to Austria losing its character as a nation-state. It will, he says, 'become one of the EU member states for whom a 'Europe of nations' is a nightmare.'
Sebestyén then pointed out that statistics like these are why Hungary continues to combat 'excessive immigration.'
As Remix News has reported in the past, three out of four students in Vienna's middle school do not speak German at home.

The data comes at the same time as Austrian politician, Herbert Kickl, the leader of the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ), spoke at CPAC Hungary. He warned of the massive demographic transformation taking place in his country and across Europe, with poll after poll showing a majority of Europeans are opposed to this transformation — yet remain nearly powerless to stop it.
'What is happening in Europe is no coincidence. It is the result of an agenda, a consciously controlled ethnic and cultural transformation. Because migration is not being stopped, no, it is being organized, promoted and glorified. NGOs are not noble aid organizations, they are part of smuggling networks with a political and ideological mission,' said Kickl.

'Integration is a lie because it means that the majority should adapt to the minority. And our welfare state is serving less and less those who have taken responsibility for themselves, for their families, for their homeland. It is being turned into an all-inclusive club for people who travel thousands of kilometers to take advantage of our achievements,' he added.
Most Austrians are not happy about the demographic transformation of their country, with 80 percent saying they want stricter asylum measures in place.
The anti-immigration FPÖ is currently the most popular party in the country by a wide margin, scoring between 34 percent and 36 percent of the vote. However, shifting demographics could harm the party in the long run, as foreigners become voting age and shift the electorate towards pro-migration, left-wing parties, a trend the left across Europe is betting on.

Western Pressure On India Over Russia
It's reshaping Indian policymakers' views of the West and breeding resentment of their governments among its society… India's former Permanent Representative to the UN Syed Akbaruddin recently published an informative opinion piece at NDTV titled 'Tariff Blitz: Is India Becoming Collateral Damage In Someone Else's War?'The gist is that the West, via Trump's threatened 100% sanctions on Russia's trading partners upon the expiry of his deadline to Putin for a ceasefire in Ukraine and the EU via its new sanctions barring the import of processed Russian oil products from third countries, is putting undue pressure on India. They can't defeat Russia on the battlefield by proxy, nor will they risk World War III by taking it on directly, so they're going after its foreign trade partners in the hopes of eventually bankrupting the Kremlin. This is counterproductive though since their threatened sanctions could torpedo bilateral ties, push India closer to China and Russia (thus possibly reviving the RIC core of BRICS and the SCO), and spike global oil prices, which hitherto remained manageable due to India's massive imports from Russia. Nevertheless, partial compliance is also possible due to the damage that Western sanctions could inflict on the Indian economy, so it can't be ruled out that India might curtail its aforesaid imports and no longer export processed Russian oil products to the EU. Full compliance is unlikely though since India would risk ruining its ties with Russia, with all that could entail as was touched upon here, while reducing its economic growth rate through higher energy prices and thus offsetting its envisaged Great Power rise. Even in the scenario of partial compliance, however, Western pressure on India over Russia already backfired. Their coercive threats and the very real consequences for no compliance whatsoever, presuming that exceptions can be made for partial compliance, are reshaping Indian policymakers' views of the West and breeding resentment of their governments among its society. The 'good 'ole days' of naively assuming that the West operated in good faith and was India's true friend will never return. This is for the better from the perspective of India's objective national interests since it's more useful to have finally realized the truth than to keep having illusions about the West's intentions and formulating policy based on that false perception. Conversely, this is for the worse from the perspective of the West's hegemonic interests since their policymakers can no longer take for granted that India will naively go along with whatever they request and blindly trust its intentions. This new dynamic might lead to rivalry. To be clear, India's envisaged Great Power rise doesn't pose a systemic challenge to the West like China's superpower trajectory does, nor is it 'disruptive' like the restoration of Russia's Great Power status has been. India consistently sought to facilitate the global systemic transition to multipolarity by serving as a bridge between East and West, which complements the West's objective interests, albeit while undermining its subjective hegemonic ones that are responsible for many of the Global South's troubles. Trying to subordinate India and then treating it as a rival when it doesn't submit could therefore further destabilize this already chaotic transition, thus possibly leading to unforeseeable consequences that accelerate the decline of Western hegemony more than if the West treated India as an equal. Pressuring India even more and then punishing it for lack of full compliance with their demands will only hasten this outcome. It's unlikely to succeed in getting India to submit to them so they should abandon this policy. Also read: Rupee Slides After Trump Threatens India Over Russia Trade

Netherlands bars two hardline Israeli ministers
TDT | Amsterdam The Netherlands has declared Israel's finance and national security ministers persona non grata for inciting violence and urging ethnic cleansing in Gaza. In June, the Netherlands backed a failed Swedish proposal to impose EU sanctions on Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar BenGvir. 'They repeatedly incited settler violence against Palestinians, promoted illegal settlement expansion, and called for ethnic cleansing in Gaza,' Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp told parliament in a letter released late Monday. Smotrich responded on X, saying European leaders had succumbed to 'the lies of radical Islam that is taking over' and 'rising antisemitism'. Ben-Gvir said he would continue to act for Israel, even if he was banned from entering 'all of Europe'.

Chinese, US officials meet for 2nd day of trade talks in Stockholm
Chinese and US delegations met for their second day of trade negotiations in Stockholm, with both sides said to be aiming to extend a truce due to end in two weeks' time. AFP journalists saw officials from both sides, led respectively by Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, enter the Swedish government building serving as the talks venue. Neither side has so far made public any information about what has gone on in the talks, which started on Monday. The negotiations are happening in the wake of a USEU trade deal struck over the weekend that set US tariffs on most EU imports at 15 percent, but none on US goods going to the EU. The truce between China and the United States, the countries with the worlds two top economies, has temporarily set US duties on Chinese goods at 30 percent, and Chinese levies on US ones at 10 percent. That accord, reached in Geneva in May, brought down triple-digit tariffs each side had levelled at the other after a trade war sparked by US President Donald Trump spiralled into a tit-for-tat bilateral escalation. The 90-day truce is meant to end on August 12. But there are indications both delegations want to use the Stockholm talks to push the date back further. The South China Morning Post, citing sources on both sides, reported on Sunday that Washington and Beijing are expected to extend their tariff pause by a further 90 days.
