We send old weapons to Ukraine. We buy new weapons for our military. Thats good for us! & the value of what we send to Ukraine is much less than what we buy for restocking our military. einnews.com/pr_news/788915…

The mandate for the European politicians is there

Der Rückhalt in der deutschen Bevölkerung für mehr militärische Unterstützung der Ukraine ist in den letzten Wochen gestiegen. Immer mehr Menschen verstehen, dass Russland mit Waffen gestoppt werden muss, solange es nicht verhandlungsbereit ist.

To Avoid Another Munich, Europe Must Act to Secure Ukraine To counter the fatalism in Western Europe, which is in danger of becoming disastrously self-fulfilling, 100+ politicians, experts, military & intelligence professionals argue that a coalition of willing Europeans must step up for Ukraine’s victory & our common security, regardless of the outcome of the US Election, because:     1️⃣ Russia is not destined to prevail. Russia cannot sustain its war effort at current levels beyond 2025 when it will exhaust key stocks. It is losing heavy cannon barrels and armoured vehicles at a rate far higher than it can replace.    2️⃣ There is no credible plan for European security after any ‘ceasefire’. The Putin regime cannot be trusted to keep a deal. A ceasefire would let Russia reconstitute its forces, putting us at a disadvantage.   3️⃣ Failing to win endangers all European allies. A ‘Minsk III’ (or Munich II) agreement would signal weakness and invite coercion upon us.   4️⃣ A route to Ukrainian victory still exists. Using new military technology we can quickly leverage Europe’s industrial capacity to build the capabilities to disable Russia’s war machine.   5️⃣ Those who want to act, can. A coalition of willing powers could supply Ukraine with what it needs to win and provide Kyiv with real security guarantees. Where they change facts and policy on the ground, others will follow.   ➡️In this appeal we urge willing European capitals to urgently arm themselves with a real contingency plan for any outcome of the US election by collectively enhancing financial and military support to Ukraine, focused on a clear theory of victory.

Ökonomisch wäre ein Sieg Russlands für Deutschland 10x teurer als die derzeitige Ukraine-Hilfe – so eine aktuelle Untersuchung des @kielinstitute Kurzer 🧵 zur Studie 1/8

A Danish citizen gives Ukraine the equivalent of 7.7 cups of coffee a month as aid (military, financial, and humanitarian aid combined). In New Zealand, each citizen provides Ukraine with 0.1 cups of coffee. #UkraineRussiaWar

Latest opinion poll from 🇩🇪 points at increasing support for 🇪🇺 states giving more military assistance to 🇺🇦. That runs against what many following the recent regional elections had assumed. Encouraging. I hope it’s read in the Kremlin 🇷🇺 as well.

For years, Russia has used hybrid warfare tactics to disrupt governance, sow division, and undermine physical & economic security across NATO. These attacks have become commonplace, but they must be treated as part of a shadow war 🇷🇺 is waging against the democratic world. 🧵1/7

Few minutes ago, a Russian missile has demolished an apartment block in Dnipro. At least one entrance was destroyed. There are people under the rubble of the apartment block now.

Die Massengräber in #Lyman lassen einen sprachlos zurück. 340 Menschen haben die #Invasionstruppen namenlos verschart - darunter 60 Kinder. Die #Ukraine hat sie jetzt ordentlich beigesetzt und versucht per DNA die Identitäten zu klären. Lasst uns #Putin stoppen.

russia continues to ramp up attacks on Kyiv and other cities and uses "terror tactics" against civilians. While children all over the world are waiting for gifts from Santa, Ukrainian kids are suffering from russian missiles.

For russians the "russian New Year at the festive table" is the footage of ruined buildings in Ukraine. These are photos from Kyiv after today’s bombardment by russian rockets. This is how they "greet" us. #RussiaIsATerroristState

This is Kyiv today. Video was published by the President Volodymyr Zelensky.

russia chose mass terror again as a response to its faults on the front. They keep hitting Zaporizhzhia’s residential buildings at night and kill civilians, innocent families with kids. More war crimes from terrorist. They need to be treated accordingly. #RussiaIsATerroristState
