Russia significantly stepped up its sabotage campaign over the past two years as it sought to pressure Europe and the U.S. to curb their support for Ukraine, according to a new study.
Russia Escalated Sabotage to Pressure U.S. and Allies on Ukraine, Study Says

“But the focus of European discussions is almost entirely on funding, not the tremendous structural problem of Europe’s fractured defense landscape made up of 25+ bespoke militaries. To put it bluntly, these militaries are not designed to defend Europe.” @maxbergmann.bsky.social
Why It’s Time to Reconsider a European Army
Europe defending itself with separate militaries, without U.S. support, is neither logical nor practical. It is time to reconsider a common European army.

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.
