At some point, hopefully soon, European leaders must accept that Trump won't help them to help Ukraine or pressurise Russia. Europe still has leverage over RU. It should start by transferring immobilised RU assets to UA to fund war & reconstruction. And it shd step up sanctions enforcement.

Biden's slow-walking of arms for Ukraine should have been a clear indication the US is not the ally the EU had hoped

And even before that, we have sent more military aid than the USA.
We're ready.
Luckily, we don't need the Russian assets , except as a leverage.
This round of sanctions will send both Russia&their buyers to their knees.
It's a shame Merz was elected,that is weakening Germany&reopening their murmuring abt gas

but EU-Canada coop will move a lot.
Despite Brexit or Trump.
He needs to be liberated of that idea.
