this has been the problem for years. They had four years to prepare and are still just having emergency meetings. No one has the guts to do the right thing.
Well, there are all crisis related but the easiest ones are: 1. Invest in Ukraine's arms industry. That can be achieved with money only and Ukraine still has a lot of spare labor at home and millions of refugees that could come home to assist. 2. Build and ship more arms to Ukraine.
Then I think it's time for a common European security- and foreign policy but that will take more time. Could be the same style as the trade policies. Even the big European countries are too small to make themselves heard now.
It appeared, that as of 2022 Ukraine was literally a military superpower compared to any (any!) of the European country. Yes, it was all soviet era and old as fuck, but all those t64bv, bmp-1, btr82, AD (s300, buk, osa), artillery, were in operation mode. The main problem was with ammo supply
Europe has military industrial complex ready and capable and willing to produce much much more, but no political will to give long-term contracts and funding. If you do not want produce 1000 Leo 2 for Ukraine, and even repair 200 obsolete Leo 1 for two years now, how would you defend yourself?
Keep calm is the message from the Swedish PM. Wonder how calm he would be when the spetznas come after him like they came after Zelenskyy. Because if this no-action mode continues, the Russians will come after us, that's a guarantee.
Maybe everybody is waiting for the German elections? Everybody is waiting for European leaders to talk but all around this silence is replaced by the retarded magaoid blabber.
Припинення війни не буде, поки існує росія.
Змін і дій не буде, бо з диктаторами не розмовляють, а знищують.
Цього елементарного висновку не зміг ніхто засвоїти.
А Черчилля в нас нема. На жаль.
Outrageous. It is 3 years since russia kills people in Ukraine, bombs hospitals, residential buildings, theatres. We are watching and worse financing all this by buying gas, oil and selling electronics. Then some cynical EU politicians make statements we stand with Ukraine? How exactly do we stand?
No they won’t, Trump does any deal he likes with other people’s lives. Afghanistan and Gaza. Right now the negotiations are where the Putin Trump Hotel will stand in Odessa and whether Lviv should be renamed Putinovo or Trumpskoya
Every major arms manufacturers is dependent on the US either directly or through joint ventures or partnerships. There is nowhere to buy that Trump sanctions can’t hurt you. Well apart from Russia and Iran.
American arms producers are down the shitter right now. Budget cuts for Pentagon looming, stopping exports as well when European arms producers are booming ? Their lobbyists will make sure they can export.
Hopefully, very soon. I hope the whole free world openly pushes back at this new administration that the idiots of my country have put in power. It would help if the USA Republicans would put their foot down as well. I am rooting for Europe, Mr. Ostlund!!!
@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu - please avoid the mistakes of the past
The orc’s vulnerability is their navy - please at least set your sub hunters loose, and start tracking their position (as was done in the 1980’s)
This should be signal enough for #punyputin
But, troops for peacekeeping is too little
some places you remove a subsidy or ask people to pay more to pension funds and they'll riot in the street
Free people in the world will have to find a few extra dollars to contribute because it's hard to match up against authoritarian governments who take that money by force
It’s up to the people of America to take care of our problem but you guys definitely ought to get on it just in case. If there’s anything you can do to help Americans fight against them it’s A LOT of us and we hate those guys. Ideally everyone helps win here and it dies here before getting to you
Trump is an agent of Putin and will do as he says. No deal offered by the US can be trusted. Things are moving very quickly. Europe needs to immediately recognize the threat at their doorstep, defend Ukraine with all available resources and put and end to Putin once and for all.
1) Submarine tracking/filming of all Russian ships through Danish/Oresund Straits. Sink anything drag (is act of war);
2) EU Fighters/bombers decimate any craft or facility shooting from Russia towards Ukraine;
3) Smaller interference than N Korean troops on ground (EU bomb them until retreat)
Exactly, there should be a state of emergency and a complete prioritisation. Instead, we get „shock”, „concern”, „calls to wake up”. DO SOMETHING!!!

We can't help you, we're dealing with a coup. YOU have to help you. Sorry, man...

A bit more patience...
