Summary
European officials are preparing a multibillion-dollar defense package to bolster regional security and support Ukraine, announced by German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock at the Munich Security Conference.
The package, potentially valued up to 700 billion euros, will fund military training, arms deliveries, and security guarantees amid concerns over Russian aggression and diminishing U.S. contributions to NATO.
The move follows calls for Europe to boost its own defense spending while U.S.-Russian talks, which exclude Ukraine and Europe, on ending the Ukraine conflict continue.
Insane
If Ukraine fails, then the rest of the world will go to war.
It’s waaayyyy cheaper to throw $ and equipment at Ukraine than have WW3
What a batshit crazy claim.
If anything, using ukraine as a proxy, giving them missiles that can reach deep into Russia, etc is what has gotten us close to WW3.
