6·11 days ago“For a successful summit, I would say all we need is for Trump not to go against NATO, or criticise NATO, or undermine NATO’s role,” Peter Bator, Slovakia’s former ambassador to NATO, told AFP.
So it’s going to be an unsuccessful summit.

PugJesus@piefed.socialtomicromobility - Bikes, scooters, boards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility@lemmy.world•16-year old cyclist Tessie Reynolds in a 'scandalous' bicycling outfit, UK, ~1893English
14·14 days agoWiki sez:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessie_Reynolds
Women’s clothes at the time included long dresses and tight corsets, impractical for cycling;[9] so Reynolds instead wore a “rational” outfit of pantaloons “cropped and cinched below the knee”, with a shirt and long coat.[11][13][6] It is likely that the outfit was made specifically for Reynolds by her sister, Ada, who was a dress maker.[7] The outfit caused outrage,[7] with suggestions that it was inappropriately masculine and that she was cycling in her knickerbockers. The publicity traveled as far as America,[7] and the outfit was promoted by proponents of Victorian dress reform,[9] as Reynolds clearly intended.[7] She was active in promoting dress reform five years prior to the foundation of the local cycling dress reform club and continued to wear the outfit regularly.[7]
Cycling magazine wrote a scathing report on the “scantiness” of the outfit, complaining of loss of modesty and calling the feat a “lamentable incident”.[6] Similarly, the Yorkshire Evening Post pointed out that cycling was not a pleasant sight for a man, but that a woman’s “abnormal hips” made it worse.[5] The publicity, despite being negative, helped improve women’s rights[9] with the suffragette movement in particular noting it was a big milestone.[11] Further, it helped show that women need not be tied to the street that they grew up in and had a means to travel.[10] Another effect of the publicity was that Reynolds received love letters, including a marriage proposal from a stranger who was apparently significantly older than her.[7] Reynolds and her family took advantage of the celebrity status, with Reynolds promoting a number of female bicycles over the following years, always in rational cycling attire.[7]

Concerning. Unfortunately, considering the Syrian government’s many enemies, it could be nearly anyone.
