Good news from 🇩🇪 and for 🇺🇦 The three parties (CDU, SPD & Greens) agreed on a compromise package to reform the constitutional debt break and a special fund for infrastructure & climate. 🇩🇪 (Defense) Funding for 🇺🇦 will be exempted from the debt break, too. www.faz.net/aktuell/poli...

Dass US-Präsident Donald Trump weiter die angegriffene Ukraine erpresst, ist ein schwerer Fehler. Russland allein trägt die Verantwortung fßr den Krieg. Und Russland allein steht dem Frieden im Weg. Fßr echten Frieden braucht es echten Druck auf Russland.

Starlinks for Ukraine are paid for by the Polish Digitization Ministry at the cost of about $50 million per year. The ethics of threatening the victim of aggression apart, if SpaceX proves to be an unreliable provider we will be forced to look for other suppliers.

What becomes shockingly clear in Musk‘s post is the megalomaniacal cult of personality that he is trying to build around himself. I challenged Putin one on one. If I turned off Starlinks, the Ukrainian front would collapse. And, most cynically: I want peace. I am God, I rule the world. So sick.

Tom Friedman on point here, though he understated the case. Either Trump is the worse negotiator in all the universes of truth and fiction, or he is beginning an alliance with Russia with a joint attempt to subjugate Ukraine (and then much else). www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/o...

Russian missiles keep relentlessly falling on Ukraine, bringing more death and more destruction. Once again, Putin shows he has no interest in peace. We must step up our military support – otherwise, even more Ukrainian civilians will pay the highest price.

What pressure is being put on Russia to negotiate?

The hits keep coming. But against the victim of aggression and not the perpetrator of the crime. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Russia’s leaders have said nothing about peace. They have made a list of demands on the US, the fulfillment of which allows them to broaden the war against Ukraine. And the US simply fulfills all of these Russian demands without question. That is only a peace process in the Orwellian sense.

Merz seeks to quickly push through $3.2 billion in German aid for Ukraine kyivindependent.com/merz-seeks-t...

Ukraine Needs European Forces Immediately cepa.org/article/ukra...

⚡️ The UK is ready to close the sky over Ukraine to ensure a peace deal, Sky News reports. PM Starmer stated the UK is prepared to provide not just troops, but also aviation to monitor the peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia. news.sky.com/story/uk-to-...

In my latest post, I made some concrete recommendations what Europe+ needs to do now to make sure we don’t get steamrolled by the speed at which Trump is destroying everything that is dear to us. Including some thoughts on willingness to defend. In the end, strength is a mindset.

Not sure if this will really happen under a soon-to-be Chancellor Merz, but it would be a good start to his term. www.forbes.com/sites/davida...

Starmer hugs Zelenskyy ahead of crisis talks at No 10 👏 news.sky.com/story/starme...

🇬🇧🤝🇺🇦 "We are ready to stand with Ukraine until the end, the people of Great Britain are committed to Ukraine," — Starmer expressed support for Zelensky

"It was a setup. Trump and Vance appear to have entered the meeting with the intention of berating Zelensky and drawing him into an argument as a pretext for the diplomatic break. Why should anyone have expected anything different? Trump has been regurgitating Russian propaganda, ..."

"What is most shocking is the willingness of people living in democracies to submit so thoughtlessly and sycophantically to an irresponsible, cynical, egocentric, and mafia-like acting president, in a way otherwise only known from dictatorships."

This was the plan all along

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

dark times, indecency, perpetrator-victim-reversal... Europe wake up, stand with Ukraine

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.

Ukraine is not alone. Germany together with our European allies stands united alongside #Ukraine - and against the Russian aggression. Ukraine can build on unwavering support from Germany, Europe and beyond. Their defence of democracy & their quest for peace & security is ours.

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

"Russia could use the breathing space," warns expert and makes Taurus statement to Merz amp.focus.de/politik/ausl...

France says UK, Germany and other EU nations are ready to send troops to Ukraine to enforce a ceasefire, but expect US backup. “Trump said he would agree,” says French Finance Minister. www.kyivpost.com/post/47867

⚡️ Germany rejects Trump’s proposal to readmit Russia to G7. Finance Minister Kukies says the bloc stands firm against Russia’s war. G7 may revisit using frozen Russian assets for Ukraine.

What the new German government means for Ukraine With Merz at the helm and the SPD’s Boris Pistorius likely gaining a seat at the table, Ukraine can expect a stronger ally in Berlin. www.politico.eu/article/germ...

If you still believe, after today‘s UN resolution, that Trump will change his mind, just as soon as the Europeans finally spend more on defence, I can‘t help you. Of course Europe must spend more on defence. But not as a gesture to please Trump. To protect ourselves & stand on our own 2 feet.

The new era in the UN. The U.S. sides with Russia …. to vote against the resolution condemning the Russian invasion. China abstains Then the UN also votes the U.S. resolution on Ukraine that doesn’t call Russia the aggressor.

Some key takeaways from the German elections and what they mean for Ukraine and Europe. The worst news for everyone involved is that the extremist far-right and pro-Putin party managed to double their results and they nearly won all direct constituencies in eastern Germany. /0

Die USA erpressen die Ukraine fĂźr eigenen Profit. Moral und Ethik? Keine Kategorien, in denen die aktuelle US-Administration denkt. Europa darf nicht tatenlos zusehen. Europa muss Verantwortung Ăźbernehmen und die Ukraine mit allem unterstĂźtzen, was es hat.

"The West has had three years to end Russia’s war on Ukraine in the latter’s favor. Kyiv begged for more weapons and ammunition, but neither Europe nor the United States delivered what was needed." -- My take for @foreignpolicy.com foreignpolicy.com/2025/02/21/r...

Bold and honest. Merz: “we need to have discussions with both 🇬🇧 and 🇫🇷 about whether nuclear sharing… could apply to us” “Merz acknowledged that Macron has repeatedly extended such an offer to Berlin —only for previous 🇩🇪 governments to leave the question unanswered”

Germany grapples with Trump's foreign policy shifts Within a matter of days, the new US administration has upended transatlantic relations. The speed and scope of US President Donald Trump's actions have caught German politicians wrong-footed. www.dw.com/en/germany-g...

There isn't much holding Europe and the U.S. together anymore: neither interests nor values. It's time to start envisioning what comes next.

Da die Welt Kopf steht, sehe ich tatsächlich mal einen Punkt optimistischer(!) als @carlomasala1.bsky.social. Im Kanzleramt "war die Zeitenwende nie Programm". Aber ich glaube, dass sie trotzdem nicht gänzlich ausfällt. Sie kommt, langsam, bottom-up statt top-down. Genßgend Leute haben verstanden.
