Macron met make-up en kernwapens?!

I'm Rick and today we're sitting in a cozy cafe

with Emma and Sophie to chat about something

that affects every Dutch person online.

We're diving into responsive design

and how it shapes the websites you use every day.

Let's learn together.

Hey, would you order?

I just read something on the NOS.

Oh no, Rick has been reading the whole NOS.

And now is the point also?

Yes, yes, but this is really interesting.

What about it?

Macron gives a big speech about nuclear strategy.

Nuclear? What do you mean exactly?

Well, nuclear weapons.

Europa and so.

Oh, that sounds serious.

Yes, but it's funny.

Is there always a funny part with Rick?

No, seriously.

Europa is now waiting on Macron.

Wait, why wait?

Because he makes it up.

That's the NOS, really.

He makes it up, as if it's a cup.

Yes, exactly, but Macron with a cup for the camera.

Haha, I don't want that anymore.

Yes, he's a little bit like someone.

Right, but well, it goes about nuclear weapons for Europa.

Wait, nuclear weapons for very Europa?

Yes, that's the idea.

Is that not a bit too much?

Yes, but Macron doesn't think so.

But why now?

Because America might not help anymore.

Oh, that's funny.

Yes, that's logical, actually.

The comments on now.com are even worse than the news.

Haha, what do they say then?

Well, someone says, but Macron thinks that he's Napoleon.

Haha, that's a bit of a war.

No, that's not fair.

I think it's also funny, honestly.

But seriously, nuclear weapons.

That's true.

Yes, I don't think it's so nice either.

No, I don't, either.

But yes, what do you do?

Um, no nuclear weapons.

Haha, simple solution Emma.

But well, it's a big problem.

Yes, and Macron is the only one in Europe with nuclear weapons now.

Really?

Only France?

Yes, England too, but they are away from Europa.

Brexit.

Always handy.

Typical?

Just if you need it.

Haha, armed angels.

Yes, it's their fault.

The comments on England are also well-known.

Of course, you read them too.

I'm a journalist in hard and nirre.

You're a slave trick.

Haha, that too.

Coffee?

Yes, thanks.

And then tell you more about Macron.

Or not?

I want coffee.

Okay, okay, no Macron anymore.

One more question.

What does the Netherlands say?

Well, the Netherlands doesn't say anything actually.

Typical?

The Netherlands.

Exactly.

Finally, you get it.

Haha, I'm reading it.

Yes, you're welcome.

Yes, and you're in the US.

Every day.

Someone has to do that.
