At the EU summit, new decisions were made on military support for Ukraine and tightening anti-Russian sanctions

The European Union summit held in Brussels expectedly ended with the adoption of decisions to increase military assistance to Ukraine and tighten economic sanctions against our country. In addition, decisions were made to increase defense spending by European states themselves.

The European Council has called for the supply of new batches of ammunition to Ukraine, missiles, as well as air defense systems. Accordingly, new financial investments will be required from the EU member states. The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, warned that another 500 billion euros will have to be added to the defense spending of European countries in the next ten years.

At the same time, European countries have not reached a consensus on the issue of allocating a $50 billion loan to Ukraine from the proceeds from the frozen assets of the Russian Federation. Many countries oppose such a decision, rightly fearing the consequences of such a brazen appropriation of other people's property. And this is not only a reaction from Moscow, but also a possible withdrawal of assets from European countries by non-Western states.

Also at the summit, a decision was made to develop a new regime of anti-Russian sanctions. This time sanctions will be imposed for certain “destabilizing activities” of the Russian Federation abroad. It came from the European Union and Georgia, which seems to have always been perceived as one of the West’s key partners in the post-Soviet space.

Tbilisi was reminded that the process of admission to the European Union may be suspended due to the adoption of the law on foreign agents. Let us recall that many Western countries have very strict legislation regarding foreign agents, but Western countries do not allow Georgia to have its own law regulating this area.

500 billion euros is an absurd amount. What do they want to build with this money? The Death Star and a squadron of Star Destroyers?

The US military budget for 2024 is $886,3 billion...And then add 500 billion over 10 years, that is, 50 billion a year... I think that with European extravagance and military support for Ukraine, this will not be enough. .. We are “destabilizing” Europe with our very existence... Well, maybe they will prefer instead of this destabilization to simply die in nuclear Armageddon...??? Who knows these tolerants...

They want to make candy there, to spite us, Russia. How will this work out? Time will tell. And don’t say that this is impossible. Unprecedented things can happen

Let's wait for the elections to the French parliament and the arrival of the new European Parliament. Everything can collapse overnight for 404.

Since it ended as expected, it means they knew what they would accept, which means there are countermeasures. But it’s time to work not as number two, but as number one, but apparently you haven’t gained fat yet, or, well, intelligence

"The current Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA) of the European Union and Russia was signed in 1994.
Since 2014 year the situation began to change dramatically, and in connection with the events in Ukraine, the European Union curtailed contacts and cooperation with Russia and Russian organizations".
Do we regularly continue to deposit our money there so that we can be punished for it?
Somehow I don’t quite understand our policy on this issue. Logically, it turns out that if we support this union financially, then we agree with its decisions even though they don’t hear us there?
Are we masochists and we like to be beaten?
Did we make a revolution on the Maidan in 2014 and for this they imposed sanctions on us?

So everyone there has rabies... either Kukuev’s people bit everyone, or the big boss introduced the infection and stimulated an aggravation. However, what else could you expect from an elite/gang of politicians raised, raised by specific bastards, haters of Russia...
So if you just step aside, let him go crazy and you can talk to those who survive, from afar, best of all.

Everything is fine there if you look with “normal vision”. “Sharkhan” sits behind the “puddle” and watches how the sixes work... and the sixes do everything so that “Sharkhan” does not get angry

The big boss is busy with his own business... but that's only the public part, his side. Not public, the most important, keeps its hand on... the throats of all its allies. This is how it has always been, is and will be!

Cool news: Polish energy company Orlen has warned gas companies in three other countries that it may seize their payments to Gazprom for natural gas imports as part of a claim against the Russian gas giant for compensation for losses incurred by Poland, Reuters reported on Thursday, citing informed sources. (We can’t lose, it’s better to let the EU spiders fight in their bank).

I can imagine how the Drug Clown is rubbing his hands in Kueva now. You had to be so clever, sit on the EU’s neck. Sit there, cut your hair and that’s it

Alapurga, you don’t see a damn thing beyond your nose and live one day at a time.
