RT @FRHoffmann1: People haven't taken this point I've been trying to make for years as seriously as they should.
If Germany can't find 3 billion euros in a 481 billion euro budget to support Ukraine in its existential struggle for the future of Europe, why would Russia believe Germany would definitely come to the aid of its Eastern European allies in times of war?
Why would Germany risk Russian retaliation on its territory, including with nuclear weapons, if it can't even risk reducing domestic spending by minuscule levels to support a Ukrainian victory?

RT @JimmySecUK: The M270 MLRS that the Russian military 'destroyed' yesterday has now been confirmed to have been an inflatable decoy... https://twitter.com/WarVehicle/status/1824816289065386066#m

RT @deaidua: After yesterday's reporting, I have so many questions to which still no relevant politician or spokesperson from a relevant ministry has provided an answer.
1) If Germany seriously wants to finance its aid only via the G-7 loan, what is stopping other countries from doing the same? Imagine just the US doing this... It wouldn't work.
2) Therefore → Why do the Ministry of Finance and the Chancellery think that Germany has a special right compared to other G7 members?
3) Wouldn't Ukraine actually finance the German bilateral assistance to Ukraine, since the loan is being paid out to Ukraine and only after that they spend the money?
4) Why should we end up with no expenditure from the annual budget, while other countries have to pay billions upon billions of euros out of their own pockets to Ukraine?
5) If Germany is not even willing to pay a few billion euros out of its own pocket, why should much smaller and economically weaker countries do so?
I sincerely hope (for all of us) to be able to answer most if not all the questions tomorrow. I'll keep you updated.

[UA] 501st Battalion of 36th Marine brigade claim to have captured Apanasovka, Kursk oblast. It still needs to be confirmed but I think it's likely.

RT @VladVexler: The Kursk invasion may contribute to Putin’s downfall, but it doesn’t contribute to his downfall in the near future. Commentators shouldn’t confuse a long-term desacralising effect (on Putin’s aura of legitimacy) with a short term de-throning effect.
