٢٢ بهمن برای ما ایرانیان، سرآغاز سقوطی دردناک به قعر جهنم جمهوری اسلامی است: کشور از مسیر پیشرفت و شکوفایی خارج شد؛ امت جای ملت را گرفت؛ به نام دین، آزادی به قتل رسید؛ بوستانها نابود و قبرستانها آباد شد؛ ناامنی و سرکوب و تبعیض به جای امنیت و نظم و قانون حاکم شد؛ زنان، شهروند… pic.twitter.com/hL8UzWIgL3

For us Iranians, 22 Bahman marks the beginning of a painful fall into the depths of the Islamic Republic's hell: the country fell from the path of progress and prosperity; the nation replaced the nation; freedom was murdered in the name of religion; parks were destroyed and cemeteries were built; insecurity, repression, and discrimination prevailed instead of security, order, and law; women became second-class citizens; freedom of religion was lost; and the apocalyptic illusions of a reactionary group linked the honorable name of Iran to chaos and terrorism; made Iran's national currency worthless day by day and our people poorer day by day. What happened in 2018 was the rebellion of the inauspicious alliance of red and black reaction against rationalism and patriotism.
That bitter fall is also a reminder that where we are is not our true place, contrary to what the devil's followers are telling us. There are still many among us who have experienced another Iranian, a prosperous Iranian, a safe Iranian, a respected Iranian, a free Iranian.
We cannot live in the past, but we can learn from it and be inspired to build an admirable future.
We both deserve a better situation and have shown that we have the ability to build a different Iran. Just as we once before, together as a united nation, we transformed Iran, which was on the verge of collapse, into a modern and prosperous country. We are the same great nation and descended from the same hardworking men and women.
It is from the combination of that successful past experience with the belief in a better future that the retaking of Iran from the non-Iranian regime has become a national desire.
Fellow countrymen,
The Islamic Republic is in its weakest and most ineffective days, and regional and global developments have also presented us with a historic opportunity. But this window of opportunity is not permanent.
With your support and desire, my compatriots, I stand in this field to overthrow the Zahhak of the times and his regime, and I have a clear and well-written plan to take back Iran and rebuild it: a five-point plan that defines both the path to victory and the roadmap for tomorrow's victory. We will carry out this campaign to liberate and save our homeland together in Iran and in the four corners of the world. As I have said many times, although we are looking for friends and allies in foreign capitals for this path, we know that our freedom will only come from our own hands.
Now is the time to act. It is time to liberate and save our motherland village by village, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city, province by province from the evil clutches of the Islamic Republic. If you are ready, wherever you are, inside or outside, village or city, east or west, north or south, take a step towards victory, to put pressure on the regime, to support the national revolution of the Iranian people; Everyone does their part and as much as they can. The national revolution needs each and every one of us to win, Iran needs each and every one of us.
Payandeh Iran,
Reza Pahlavi
Backstory ![:marseyreading: :marseyreading:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyreading.webp)
Til 1925 Persia was ruled by the Qajar dynasty, who by the end of things were weak and corrupt. A general from humblest provincial roots named Reza Shah seized power and declared himself first of the Pahlavi dynasty. Instead of at least patronizing Shiite crap he tried to modernize and westernize the country, emphasizing Iranian (newly renamed) history and nationalism, which caused strife with the largely traditional peasantry and Islamic clergy. Luckily Iran had oil enough to fund these major actions.
During WW2 the British and Soviets invaded and made him abdicate in lieu of his young son Muhammad Reza Shah. He would rule in various forms til 1979. Snazzy mofo
From the 40s til the early 50s, the country had elections. Obviously they went through parties and prime ministers like any third world shithole. In 1951 Mohammed Mossadegh, a popular reformist, won office. Him and the Shah fought for power, ousting each other, til Mossadegh came up on top. His big thing was nationalizing the British and American oil companies that were happily slurping up Persian oil for pennies. Bad idea nigga
Coup Time ![:banana: :banana:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/banana.webp)
The CIA covertly regime changed him in 1953, returning the Shah to power. They got Arbenz (Guatemala) out the next year. Good decade for covert action. From then til '79 the Shah would rule as an absolute dictator.
Overall, it was a prosperous time for Iran. The GDP went way up, although much or most of the increase benefitted the Shah and his cronies. In 1971, to commemorate 2,500 years since the founding of Persia - the font of the Pahlavi clan's claimed legitimacy - a party was held on a scale of luxury never seen til then and not to be matched since.
This party took a year to plan, including:
- renovating an airport and building a new highway
- constructing an enormous 'tent' city (prefab luxury apartments with traditional Persian tent-cloth surrounds)
- planting hundreds of trees, flowers, and gardens in the desert, many imported from France
- satellite, telex and telephone connections worldwide... in 1971
- caterers from the world's elite restaurants, some of which closed for weeks
- 250 red mercedes-benz limousines. 50,000 birds. 10,000 turquoise and gold plates
During the days-long festivities 600 of the world's elite dined on the finest of foods, entertained by custom sound-and-light shows, specially-commissioned music, military parades, and of course prostitutes of every shape, size and color.
Perhaps the Shah was trying to outdo his distant predecessor, of whom the holy sages write:
Also, the cities were electrified, a new economy was nurtured in Persia, cultural norms liberalized and modern educational institutions were set up. From 1963 on, the Shah coopted many of Mossadegh's fun reforms to buttress popular support. Unfortunately the locals tended to focus on the crazy parties their betters were throwing over the fact their life had measurably improved. In fact, the new policies had the unfortunate effect of (1) congregating tons of conservative peasants in the cities, (2) weakening and angering traditional elites and the clergy, and (3) creating a powerless (under absolute monarchy) class of youth with their heads full of western words like communism and revolution who didn't appreciate the Shah's lux spending.
In responding to this by chasing away opponents, purging commies and imprisoning detractors, the Shah obviously made a lot of enemies. The Shiite imams became a focal point of dissent and organization for the disaffected masses.
1979 ![:marseyaware: :marseyaware:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyaware.webp)
Starting in 1978, riots, strikes and demonstrations paralyzed the country, mostly from the factors above, but also in response to extremely strong inflation since 1973 (thanks OPEC ), as well as the Shah's recent clumsy attempts at political liberalization. Reza Shah, of course, cracked down, but in a much nicer way than (say) Assad or Khamenei, who learned big lessons from his over-magnamity. Only a few thousand people died all year - his secret police preferred beatings, mild torture, exile, etc.
Much of the rioters' energy focussed on the charismatic Ayatollah Khomeini, who was in convenient nearby exile in Iraq, whence he galvanized his supporters. The Shah pushed him on to France in late '78 but this backfired: his supporters, if anything, had better access to him there, Iraq's postal system leaving a lot to be desired vis-a-vis France. Also:
Surely the mild secular oppressor (🇮🇱) is much worse than the cool islamic mystic (🇯🇴) - western media
By 1979 Reza Shah was forced to pull an Assad and gtfo and Khomeini returned to Iran amidst cheering crowds. He proceeded to marginalize opposition groups like liberals and moderate islamists, purge his opponents and consolidate Iran into a brutal theocratic republic, whose horrors far outstripped and continue to outstrip anything the Shah ever did. Some examples:
- 1979-1981 hostage crisis, because the US let the exiked Shah receive medical treatment
- 1980-1988 war with Iraq, because they refused to give up Arab provinces to Iraq
(hundreds of thousands died)
- 1988 massacre of political prisoners, which in a few months killed more Iranians than Reza Shah during his whole regime
Khomeini died on 3 June 1989, "after suffering five heart attacks in ten days." Hope it hurt bozo
Return of the Sith ![:soyjakwow: :soyjakwow:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/soyjakwow.webp)
Khomeini's chosen, hand-picked successor, the most qualified marja (senior Shiite cleric) in Iran, was a fellow named Montazeri. Sadly, he let it slip he was interested in reform and liberalization. Oops! The Islamists got together, threw Montazeri under house arrest and crowned Ayatollah Khamenei instead. Different guy, believe it or not, though the similarity probably helped illiterate peasants acclimate.
Starting in the 90s but intensifying significantly through 2010s, Iranians became very upset and disaffected with the regime. When the resource economy cyclically boomed all the money went to the oligarchs, and when it busted all the pain was felt by the common people. In addition, the hypocrisy of the mullahs and clergy was extremely obvious. These dudes would put on robes and turbans and proceed to do drugs, fornicate, steal money, etc. protected by the government and their religion, which under the I.R. model were one.
Major protests occurred in 1999, 2003, 2005, 2009, 2011 etc. Some were national, others regional or minority focussed, but after each bloody crackdown and refusal to negotiate, peoples' attitudes hardened. The regime faced sanctions and was running out of funds and support. Hope seemed to be on the horizon.
Hope ![:blacksoyjak: :blacksoyjak:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/blacksoyjak.webp)
Barack Hussain Obama, DNC PMC HNIC of the US MIC, wanted an easy foreign policy win. Hating Israel due to his muzzie dad and liberal upbringing, he appointed a negotiator who, it turns out, was literally an Iranian spy. Malley had highest-level security clearance and even appointed other Iranian agents to the DOD and State Department. Whoops
The "agreement" that came out of these "negotiations" ended with Iran promising to be good boys and not make nukes in exchange for the US directly flying $400,000,000 USD in cash to the genocidal mullahs, plus another $1,300,000,000 later. Lotta zeros there
!chuds !nooticers did Iran proceed to spend this money on
A. peaceful development
B. oppression, corruption, and arming terrorists to kill Americans and Jews all across the world
Weigh in below!
Appendix A ![:marseyclappingglasses: :marseyclappingglasses:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyclappingglasses.webp)
For your edification, a very non-exhaustive list of what Obama's besties got up to before and after the deal:
1983 - bombing 1983 - bombings 1983 - bombings, hijackings 1984 - bombing 1985 - bombings 1998 - hijacking 1992 - bombing 1992 - assassination 1994 - bombing 1996 - bombing 1998 - bombings 2000 - bombing 2002 - smuggling 2003 - bombings 2005 - assassination 2009 - smuggling 2011 - smuggling 2011 - assassination 2012 - bombing 2012 - bombings 2014 - smuggling 2018 - bombing 2021 - bombing 2022 - assassination
Islamic terrorism (prior to and since the Sunni Al Qaida/ISIS) was almost entirely Iran and its Arab proxies. As an "Islamic Republic" supporting these random shitstirring streetshitters became Iran's entire foreign policy to this day. For a while in the late 2010s, their non-state partners ruled, outright or in practice, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Gaza and Yemen - a significant swath of the middle east. Obama basically handed them Iraq, on top of hundreds of millions of your money.
After the Deal ![:marseytabletired2: :marseytabletired2:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseytabletired2.webp)
The Iranian people kept rioting, hating their government so strongly they began to slaughter its most sacred cows: Islam, the anti-Shah revolution, antisemitism, etc.
Islam: 73% want to separate religion and governance. Barely 37% identify as Shiite or Sunni (according to the Islamic Republic 99.5% are muslim); only 30% believe in heaven and hell, outrageously low numbers for the middle east. Considering the religious are likely the oldest sector of the population, this bodes extremely poorly for Islam as a whole in Iran. 8% profess Zoroastrianism, swapping Islamic rites for fire weddings and revived ancient Persian holidays. This self-identification isn't actually accepted by real Zoros (who are almost extinct) but who's counting?
Specifically to spite Shiite islam, guys knock off clergymen's hats and girls rip off their hijabs, and sometimes more
The Shah: The 2016 protests were actively monarchist in nature: imagine such a thing anywhere else in the world. Most Iranians have begun to revere the Shah's heir, Reza Pahlavi (#2 obviously). Like a battered wife fleeing to a DV shelter and ending up abused by trannies and hobos, the Iranian people have begun to crave their former master.
Israel: Especially during the 2022 but also before and since, many Iranians in and outside Iran bravely resisted the Islamic/liberal hivemind. They flew Israeli flags and generally supported Israel. Whether this is sincere or just "enemy of my enemy" remains to be seen, but it's a welcome development for lovers of truth, peace and justice. Within Iran they risk severe sanctions for this, but even there, they refuse to do things like place their shoes on the Israeli flags which their government lays out as an insult
Today ![:marseysalvindicated: :marseysalvindicated:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseysalvindicated.webp)
All this was intro to the actual news of the week, which is that His Royal Highness, til now just tweeting vague and lovely pro-democracy stuff and living large on his family's wealth, has officially ordered his Iranian subects to RISE UP AND OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT
44 cities have seen actions and demonstrations; there are widespread ongoing protests.
Other fun stuff:
https://old.reddit.com/r/NewIran/comments/1inq5s6/turban_tossing_has_returned_video_is_apparent/ https://old.reddit.com/r/NewIran/comments/1ine3gs/breaking_iranians_from_the_city_of_kermanshah/ https://old.reddit.com/r/NewIran/comments/1in6g8l/an_important_message_to_the_leader_of_the_free/ https://old.reddit.com/r/NewIran/comments/1imltj8/once_again_brave_iranians_made_a_home_made_flag/
The regime's weak both internally - from protests and apathy - and externally, having lost Hamas, Hezbollah, Syria, and the Obama / Biden money spigot. US and Israeli glowies seem to be banking on now as the time to strike, as seen reading between the lines in media pieces and tweets like Mr. Reza's.
What will happen
On the one hand, Iran and its bandit regime has survived every shock and protest for 46 years, including most recently the '22 protests, which fizzled out. These new protests aren't super impressive, at least yet. On the other hand, it only took HTS 11 days to conquer a country it and fifteen other factions had fought over for more than a decade. Clearly longevity doesn't mean much in the middle-eastern context; the Pahlavis ruled for 54 years, the Assads for 53...

This happened in 25 August 2010, when a Let L-410 Turbolet twin-engine short-range transport aircraft designed and produced by the Czech, crashed near Bandundu Airport. Of the 21 people onboard, all died, including the pilots, except one passenger, which is how we have any idea of WTF actually caused the crash!
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-11087817
====(from BBC article)
A plane has crashed in the west of the Democratic Republic of Congo, killing 20 people, officials say.
One person was also critically injured as it came into land in Bandundu, about 200km (125 miles) west of the capital.
A BBC reporter in Kinshasa says it hit a house, but no-one is thought to have been hurt on the ground.
DR Congo, the size of western Europe, has few roads after decades of
civil war, and has one of the world's worst air safety records.
The BBC's Thomas Hubert says the plane crashed 2km from the airstrip as it attempted to land just after midday.
Colonel Joli Limengo, the local chief of police, told our correspondent that most of those on board had died in the accident, including the two pilots - who were believed to be Belgian nationals.
He said that 19 bodies were pulled from the wreckage along with two survivors, one of whom later died.
The aircraft was operated by Filair, an airline based in Kinshasa, and was due to stop over in Bandundu town before continuing its journey to the capital.
Our reporter says Filair, just like all airlines registered in DR Congo, is on the European Union's no-fly list because of the country's poor air safety record.
Transport Minister Laure-Marie Kawanda said a team had arrived in Bandundu to investigate the crash.
====(end quote)
Note that this was BEFORE the investigation by the Belgian authorities were carried out!
Initially the authorities were confused as to why the heck the plane had crashed, cuz usually when these types of small planes tanked it was cuz they were literally out of fuel
====(unknown AFP article)
Plane crashes in DRCongo, 20 dead: deputy governor
(AFP) – 4 days ago
KINSHASA — At least 20 people were killed after a plane flown by the Belgian head of a local airline crashed while trying to land in western Democratic Republic of Congo, officials said.
The Filair Czech-made twin turboprop crashed Wednesday afternoon at Bandundu after a 300-kilometre (200-mile) flight from the capital Kinshasa, and apparently running out of fuel, Vicky Mboso Muteba said.
"They have brought out the people, we have 19 bodies in the morgue," said Mboso, the deputy governor of Bandundu province, northeast of Kinshasa.
One of two survivors later died in hospital.
The owner of the private airline Filair, Belgian Daniel Philemotte, 62, was at the controls of the Let-410 plane and was among those killed, along with the co-pilot and stewardess, he added.
Mboso said that after an abortive attempt to land, the aircraft turned away and crashed towards the edge of Bandundu city, hitting an earthen house whose residents had managed to flee in time.
There was no explosion, said Mboso, who was one of the first to arrive on the site along with soldiers from MONUC, the UN mission in the Congo.
"Subject to expert opinion... the presumed cause could be a lack of fuel," he said.
====(end quote)
Basically people noted what was strange about this crash was that the fricking plane actually made an attempt to land, but aborted midway?! The authorities were also really puzzled wtf went wrong, cuz the pilot was a Eurocuck (and therefore actually competent, unlike the locals). And they also found the plane was completely full of fuel, so empty tanks weren't the cause, compared to what was the cause speculated when the news broke in Congo, as well as some minor Safrican foreign news outlets.
Here's a article google translated into Bonglish
https://www.radiookapi.net/actualite/2010/08/27/crash-de-bandundu-ville-la-version-de-fil-air/
From the 2 survivors, including the one poor soul whom would die in hospital later, the authorities gathered that there had appeared to be some kind of panic
aboard the plane, so close to the runway, causing all of the passengers to run towards the cockpit, unbalancing the small plane, and pulling the center of gravity, and making the aircraft near inoperable, which is why the pilot had managed to make one aborted attempt at landing, yet still pulled up at the last moment, to end up crashing it near the emergency landing strip of Bandundu Airport later!
====(from french article)
The crash of the Fil Air plane that occurred on Wednesday, August 25 in Bandundu City was not caused by a fuel shortage but rather by a technical failure before being thrown off balance by panicked passengers, indicated John Mbu, the consultant of this airline, forty-eight hours after the occurrence of this tragedy that killed around twenty people including the boss of the company, in the west of the DRC.
John Mbu explained:
"The statement of the only survivor, who was on the plane, said that the pilot had to land on the emergency strip located next to the runway. And that, when he arrived on final and had to point to land on the emergency strip, the passengers, having seen that his nose was not on the runway, screamed and all came into the cockpit."
As it was so close to landing, he continued, it threw the plane off balance and it swung before crashing into a house.
The hypothesis of running out of fuel is therefore not true, according to him, because after checking, there were still at least 150 litres of kerosene in the tanks.
However, regarding the technical breakdown, Fil Air was waiting until Friday evening for the expert report on the black box. This was recovered by civil aviation authorities and the transport ministry, the source said.
====(end quote)
So by this point the confused authorities understood there was some kind of last minute panic?
but they were still clearly uncertain WTF actually was the cause and were waiting for diagnoses of the Black Box
AND THEN:
It seems about 3-4 weeks later, when the sole survivor had recovered in the hospital from his injuries and could be questioned more clearly, and without delirium, that apparently fricking one of the passengers had smuggled a pet crocodile aboard, in a duffle bag. And that close to the end of the journey, the fricker apparently escaped, causing a panic shitstorm amongst the rest of the passengers, whom would flee to the opposite end of the aircraft in their headless panic
and frick up the center of gravity with such a sudden shift of weight!
====(from archived TheTelegraph article)
The plane came down despite no apparent mechanical problems during an internal flight in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It has now emerged that the crash was caused by the concealed reptile escaping and causing a stampede in the cabin, throwing the aircraft off-balance.
A lone survivor apparently relayed the bizarre tale to investigators. The crocodile survived the crash, only to be dispatched with a blow from a machete.
According to the inquiry report and the testimony of the only survivor, the crash happened because of a panic sparked by the escape of a crocodile hidden in a sports bag. One of the passengers had hidden the animal, which he planned to sell, in a big sports bag, from which the reptile escaped as the plane began its descent into Bandundu.
A report of the incident said: "The terrified air hostess hurried towards the cockpit, followed by the passengers." The plane was then sent off-balance "despite the desperate efforts of the pilot", said the report.
====(end quote)
Even more hilarious is that the British Air Crash investigators didn't want to believe in the crocodile story and thought it was bullshit
and the fact that they couldn't get ahold of the flight-recording data from the Black Box (no idea why) made them sceptic to this story. But due to all the compounded factors, like the Belgian pilots being experienced, the plane being in good condition and fully fueled pre-crash made not good accounts for the cause of the crash outside the hearsay of the sole survivor, whom had little cause to lie.

Prelude:
this cute twink has an open mic show where he, with his guest panel, bullies the participants who bomb. sadly, the show is funny and has the charm of old school hazing
Act 1:
characters: AIB , Mumbai Police
, Ranveer Singh
AIB was a skit comedy-satire collective and back in 2015 organized a roast show (tired copied concept i know) of Ranveer Singh (and another fella). the thing went viral...leading to police complaints, apology letters, video bans, media debate blah blah. the hot topic in contention - vulgarity. @Sasanka_of_Gauda 's favourite party, BJP, wants to maintain their monopoly on the right to be potty mouth and they made a huge hue & cry
nah, it was an across the aisle issue
writer's notes: AIB planted the flag of edgy comedy india by surviving this onslaught but couldnt cross the torrent of metoo
Act 2:
characters: Samay Raina , Ranveer Allahbadia
Samay Raina is a big chess streamer/comedian/kashmiri pandit/edgelord who likes to create parody game shows with his audience. he has been hated by the left wing for his "misogny" and love for the right govt. (he's a normal centrist tbh). he once made a fear factor + the dictator mashup where he would just eliminate players on whim calling "life is unfair". (beast games before it was cool). he one one fateful morning decided to copy.....kill tony and mix it with america's got talent. the participant has to perform, predict his score and is rewarded on the basis of their self awareness
the show blew up for its golden age unscripted game show honesty. it seriously BLEW, beyond the target audience and celebrities started clamouring to join the next cool thing. streaming websites offered money to buy the rights, live shows were getting sold out, kids were buying youtube memberships, haters were name dropping it to get views
the character 2, Ranveer Allahabadia, is the indian r-slurred joe rogan + logan paul. he used to make nofap nonsense before transitioning to clickbait podcasts. and i swear by god, HE MADE MONEY. the most braindead content with aliens, yeti, ghosts there was no r-slur grifter on internet that he had not interviewed. the people with brain hate him for that. the right wing govt, BJP, approched him to do their propaganda during elections and my man counted cash. the left wing hates him for that. the rest of youtuber hate him for his clout
ACT 3:
characters: samay raina , ranveer allahabadia
, mumbai police
on the 10 year anniversary of AIB roast, when the stars aligned, my neighbor released his episode with Ranveer Allahbadia as guest. and something happened. on the show, there was some homophobic participant and the guests were grilling him by asking what if his son would turn out gay, "would you suck my peepee for 10 mil?", "what bout 20 mil?". in the flow and def due to being drunk, my man RA to fit in with other comics pulled out an old copied stinker "would you rather watch your parents have s*x or join it once to stop it forever?"
left wing clipped it to defame the right wing govt about their association with such "vulgar" people. the right wing ( @Sasanka_of_Gauda basically) went in apeshit overdrive to kill the connection by metaphorically killing the man themselves. other indians joined in their favourite passtime after r*pe, mob lynching. chief ministers of several states are personally name dropping them, police is raiding their computers, rounding up everyone from the day 1 episode 1, opportunists are planning to introduce censorship laws, libertarian right wings are clenching their jaws over their low iq compatriots, people are using "motherlover" while condemning incestuous jokes. RA is crying and apologizing. meanwhile Samay Raina is touring US while chilling cuz "life is unfair". zoomers are seething over their skibidi potty going away. media is making shit up literally to fill airtime. parliamemtary committees are being formed

Instead of filing FIR and arresting Ranveer, use this opportunity to regulate vulgar content on OTT and YouTube. There is widespread outrage among the public, and they will gladly support such laws.

Don't squander this opportunity.
It is not a solution to just ignore the things that offend you.. Normalising unethical behaviour is not at all acceptable, since it creates negative and long term impact on the society.. social platforms, movies, short films, etc. promoting vulgarity should be completely banned.

US Vice President JD Vance has warned Europe not to adopt "overly precautionary" regulations on artificial intelligence as the US and the UK refused to join dozens of other countries in signing a declaration to ensure that the technology is "safe, secure and trustworthy."
The two countries held back from signing the communique agreed by about 60 countries at the AI Action summit in Paris on Tuesday as Vance vowed that the US would remain the dominant force in the technology.
"The Trump administration will ensure that the most powerful AI systems are built in the US, with American-designed and manufactured chips," Vance told an audience of world leaders and tech executives at the summit.
"America wants to partner with all of you... but to create that kind of trust, we need international regulatory regimes that foster the creation of AI technology rather than strangle it."
The summit declaration calls for "ensuring AI is open, inclusive, transparent, ethical, safe, secure and trustworthy, taking into account international frameworks for all."
EU: We are incapable of building our own AI. USA-chan, please agree to build yours to our specifications.
US: No.

While the commitments are non-binding, both the US and UK had signed similar declarations at previous iterations of the AI summit.
