EU on both sides of the war

The EU’s Energy Addiction Is Prolonging the War in Ukraine

Suppose a man claims loyalty to a besieged neighbor while secretly funding the attackers, insisting all the while that his hands are clean.

Not one cent for this folly. What I would do is go greener until you black yourself out on a massive scale.

Maybe, just maybe, Trump is making a brilliant play on Ukraine

The best evidence? The way the legacy media screamed (and, yes, lied) about the White House's ceasefire proposal last week.

I'd say supporting Ukraine is all on the EU now. We gave way more than our fair share.

Trump is selling out Ukraine for cheap! What does Putin have on him? Is this really the best deal he can get? Uncle Vlad has been playing Trump and MAGA.

The US already gave $350b to Ukraine. After the ($100b) EU catches up we can talk.
Trump is working on a peace deal, if they want peace fine, if they want war, they can pay for it.

As usual on this topic, you just ignore the actual point of the thread.

How much has Europe given to Russia for Oil and Gas?

I don’t live in Europe. I live here and our president is f-ing things up.

I think that Russia's Victory Day parades could turn out to be a bust for Putin if the West plays it right. I don't think Ukraine should formally agree to a three day ceasefire, but it should hold off on any military action during that period which would allow Putin to claim that Russia is still having to fight the Nazis.

Instead, the Western Allies should honor V-E Day with somber reminders that, while one expansionist regime was defeated, another one is still enlarging its territory at the expense of its neighbors. This would be in contrast with Russia's military displays, which will make them look more like Hitler's victory parades than a legitimate remembrance of a great struggle.

Afterwards, Ukraine should step up its attacks on Russian forces in its territory while the US and EU start placing maximum economic sanctions on Russia. This will give Putin a choice of magnanimously agreeing to a peace agreement or facing complete economic isolation from half of the world. If he wants to turn Russia into another North Korea, so be it.
