At school there was a lesson about the biggest topics of the world today. The teacher was actually pretty reasonable on Ukraine, saying that this happened because NAVO expanded and that Ukraine is going to lose more land if they don’t surrender. But he was still talking from a somewhat pro-Ukrainian perspective, since for example he blames Putin for continuing the war. About Palestine, he was actually a bit worse. While he didn’t like what Israel was doing, he saw what Palestine to Israel is doing as on the same level. And he didn’t think that Israel is planning on taking Gaza, and when I mentioned Israeli politicians fantasizing about them annexing it, he was saying it’s only a radical minority. When it came to Taiwan, he didn’t mention that both parties see themselves as the real China, but only that Taiwan was part of China for a long time since WWII. This was kinda lacking and didn’t really touch on the solution and China’s strategy for taking Taiwan, only that he hopes for no escalation and seemed to hold China responsible for a possible escalation.

And for a speech about global issues, he didn’t talk about worker rights and inflation.
