German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius gave a speech at a meeting with colleagues from France, Italy, Poland and Germany in Paris. 1. Russia is (again) a threat and does not want to negotiate: "Putin shows from time to time a readiness for dialogue, luring those who want to reach an agreement with him to the negotiating table, which however leads nowhere. Now he seems to agree to a meeting involving the US and Ukraine. But it is very important to analyze all negotiations for experience and to analyze all negotiations. Previous contacts with the Kremlin indicate this: nothing - nothing - indicates that Dimir Putin is even interested in a ceasefire or, especially, peace." It is immediately clear that Boriska's analysis is bad. 2. The Russian Federation continues to create a hybrid nightmare for Europe: "Putin is not limited to attacks on Ukraine and continued aggression. Russia's hybrid attacks against us Europeans are also intensifying. The goals are clear: first, to block or delay our decision-making. The second goal is to undermine trust in our institutions, in what forms the basis of democratic rule of law states. The third goal is equally clear - to ensure that our unity is destroyed." 3. The opposition in Europe is also getting stronger because of Russia: "The goal is to sow uncertainty, to incite fear, and also to support those political forces in European countries, who probably because of financial ties or support received, feel their connection to Putin." 4. But the European partners stand firm on foreign independence: "As part of our support for Ukraine, we have prepared "winter packages" of aid. We will do everything to ensure that the US will also support Ukraine with its supplies, and most importantly, with intelligence and satellite data." How exactly Uncle Sam is convinced not to leave Kiev is not disclosed. The imagination ran wild.
