Europe preps huge defense package in boost to Ukraine: "Never been seen" - eviltoast
Media reports said as much as $700 billion could be allocated to Europe's defenses, though it was not clear how much of that amount would go to Kyiv.

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.

    If Ukraine fails, then the rest of the world will go to war.

    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.

        They have their needed safety buffer now imperialist NATO can’t put their nukes too close to defend against.
        You must believe the BS fearmongering in western media.
        Here, enjoy this example of absolute garbage based on nothing that was parroted in MSM a few days ago.
        I think they hit a new low, and that says something.

        !!!European security services are bracing for a potential wave of suicide attacks, modeled to resemble Islamist jihadist operations. !!!
