The EU leaders met in Brussels to pledge their unconditional and uncritical support for Zelensky, and to escalate their rhetoric towards Russia. The EU’s plan to dramatically increase military spending has many problems. In the best case scenario, the Europeans will not see a significant increase in their military production for many years and Zelensky only has a few more months left of fighting power. The panic and desperation in Europe reflect a strategic vacuum as there are no good options as the war is coming to an end, while the US aims to reduce its footprint in Europe and mend ties with Russia in a great power compromise.

It would be so nice to get an ethical leader somewhere in this corrupt world.
The aim of the militsary escalation isn't to change the outcome of the failed proxy war.
Its to usse this failure to manufacture a story to spend more government money on weapons and technology, plundering the pockets of average European citizen taxpayers and enriching the pockets of the wealthy who are mosly all tax dogers too.
Its the old story: "never let a crisis go to waste".
To understand how sick this is, you need to understand how mindlessly greedy the rich are, and how amoral their political lackeys are.
