This character was a mediocre politician in Spain, his party sent him to Europe to get him out of the way and now he believes himself to be Emperor Carlos V

So, where is the other part, where Borell calls EU artificial garden and the rest of the world jungle, as says that the controlled garden must step into the jungle, which is exactly British colonialism?

Senile warmongers, the most dangerous threat. Half-dead ghouls with nothing left to lose (and live) beating the war drums to people who have everything to lose.

What they conceal in their hearts is far worse than what they utter with their tongues. "A day without hypocrisy is a day wasted"

Not sure M. Borrel is convinced by his own statement

Putin didn't even sleep for fear! Or maybe Putin doesn't even pay attention to the loudmouths

[JayPeeTheMan]

Curiously, his ambiguous pronunciation of "annihilated" also sounds like "inoculated" (biological warfare against Russia?!)

the most powerless man with the most powerful words..trying to get attention.. nothing else..let him go to the frontline in the war..

[thet]

And putin will just sit idly by right?

[abcgfc]

I suggest every politicians over 70 should retire as he is already demented

[neolexiousneolexian]

As far as reasons to go to war go.... "Fighting to maintain the nuclear taboo and set a precedent that nuclear use ends badly so we don't all die" is pretty historically unorthodox, but I have to admit pretty compelling.

Borrell quote : "We cannot be a HERBIVORE in a WORLD of CARNIVORES"

[saecula]

he is naive ... 2 Questions: How he want to annihilate the russian army, with chemical weapons ? How does he intend to avoid a nuclear counterattack ?

So YouTube is a part of the European commity

Such a great way to say it. Calmly without extra emotions. 👍

Talk is cheap old man. Go ahead and try it. We'll see who gets annihilated!

This guest has lost touch with reality. He is theorizing with a serious concern. Go for solution instead of escalation pls
