Next, homeless tax and childless tax.

SpaceX and others are bulding lauch vehicles ten times cheaper per kg and equally reliable, Europe keeps their bureaucrats-space-flight program going

Comparison of capacities is laughable. Only Proton-M is currently as big as Ariane 5.

Second, SpaceX PR is notoriously lying by claiming that improbably cheap flights are "possible" while receiving hundreds million dollars of subsidies which divided by number of launches give very different picture.

European governments should not kick up a fuss about American spying.

I'm starting to believe that US intelligence is opportunistic. Nobody could confirm Kim Jong Il death before NK television send a message proving that there is no American intel there, while they are spying on EU.

Airbus A400M is inferior to An-70?

Antonov managed to build 2 in time they advertised 200. It needs up to 1 800 m of take off runaway. And it crashed.

EU-Belarus small cross border movement?

I don't see why not. It would benefit residents near Belarus-Lithuania border and not exactly the leadership.

Of course real game-changer would be border-crossing agreement with Poland. Look at the map

Edit: To be clear, the agreement exist, just Belarus declares lack of enough printers to create cards for citizens eligible for the
