The far right in Germany is against the war. Democratic parties are for the war.

Ukraine parliament rep from Odessa: often NATO talks about the baltic sea, what about the black sea? Are you ready as NATO to make military convoys to prevent Putin from interrupting the grain trade?

lol it doesn't really sound like NATO has a clear idea of why they're supporting Ukraine or how long. Each mention of Ukraine is slightly different.

The only lever the defense ministers have is to give more money to the existing corporations but that isn't solving any problems now or in the future. They see there is a problem but have not way of conceptualizing anything different.

Each mention of Ukraine is slightly different. the only constant is that when a ukrainian asks "so when you gonna let us join nato" they all start sweating, tugging at their collars and go "uh, well you know. eventually"

Got about 3 hours left of content before I cross back over to where Hoot had started, btw.spacemang_spliff posted:lol it doesn't really sound like NATO has a clear idea of why they're supporting Ukraine or how long. Each mention of Ukraine is slightly different. the impression I get from the conversations thus far is that they want the Ukraine conflict to be over so that they can focus on China, the real enemy. Supporting Ukraine or admitting Ukraine into NATO doesn't get NATO any closer to refocusing on China but they are trapped and can't, at least not yet, dump Ukraine.

The comments of the Czech president, so far the least positive on the topic of the war in Ukraine, as to negotiations seemingly beginning at the end of the year were interesting. He and others have mentioned to election pressures and the need to wrap up the conflict before the election season begins.
