Why is there this kind of "impossible communication" between farang and thais ?
"I enter the pharmacy at the same time as Thais ... I had to wait until the Thais were done..." If you entered at the same time as the Thai customers why should you be served first or why should they not be served ahead of you? Indeed - did he simply stand there silently, expectant and expressionless? It’s hard to imagine what kind of response he was hoping for. In contrast, my own experience - just yesterday, in fact - was quite different, especially with this thread fresh in mind. I walked into a pharmacy, greeted the staff in Thai, and asked about a particular item (in Thai). Not only did the person I spoke to assist, but another staff member and the pharmacist stopped what they were doing to help as well. Later, at Tops with a basket full of groceries, I joined the queue. A staff member noticed, smiled warmly, waved me over, and promptly opened a third checkout. All very ordinary, everyday interactions. Perhaps the OP just isn't one of those ‘hansum men’ !!!.... But in all seriousness, the vast majority of my experiences here fall somewhere between polite neutrality and genuine kindness. -

Russia Dismisses Trump’s Ukraine Peace Plan Offers 3 Day Ceasefire
You are right that European countries don't have the logistical means to conduct a war without U.S. capabilities, at least on short term. As to the EU, it wouldn't be able to do that in any case, as defense is not a prerogative of the EU. The only thing it can do is support initiatives by member States. -

America has emerged....as an international laughingstock
German bunds offer lower interest rates than do US bonds. A lot lower. Tariffs usually lower the rate of the currency of the country imposing them This time not. You can repeat your mantra over and over again about the US economy but that doesn't mean it isn't on the decline.
