SturmUndDranger<p>7. The EU really needs to get its sh1t together fast. Either have Orban conveniently fall out of a window or progress with variable geometry. But get a move on. It’s not a united entity but what family is? It’s still a family. The President is a German ex-defense minister. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
SturmUndDranger<p>6. It’s probably OK for Zelenskyy to give up aspirations of future NATO membership as a bargaining chip as it won’t matter in the future. Stay focused on EU membership. That’s where the old WEU (NATO exUSA) went. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
SturmUndDranger<p>5. The NATO Article 5 security guarantee is dead as far as the USA is concerned (unless they get invaded by Canada). Europe is outside the US sphere of influence and if they’re too cheap and lazy to defend themselves, Putin should have them. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
SturmUndDranger<p>4. If you’re currently sitting in Taiwan reading this, there’s an uncomfortable lesson in it for you too!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
SturmUndDranger<p>3. The best reason for the USA to militarily support Ukraine was to test their weapons in a live-fire environment and see lots of dead commies without any American soldiers getting hurt.</p><p>But now we’re going unimpregnable spheres of influence for the USA, Russia and China…</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
SturmUndDranger<p>2. Trump reasons Ukraine is physically proximate to Russia and is of great interest to the Russians and doesn’t have a lot to benefit the USA, so let Putin have it. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
SturmUndDranger<p>1. Trump sees only spheres of geographically proximate influence. So he believes he should own Greenland, Canada and probably Mexico too. He’s probably hazy about national or personal ownership too. I mean, King Leopold got a great deal in the Congo, right?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/realpolitik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>realpolitik</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
