Diese Community ist für alle, die bereit sind liberale Demokratie, Rechtsstaatlichkeit und Meinungsfreiheit zu verteidigen und um die im Laufe der Geschichte gefallenen Helden zu würdigen. Schwurbler, Monarchisten, Nazis, Tankies und andere Fans von Autokratischen Systemen oder Personen, die den Begriff „Demokratie“ beschmutzen sind nicht erwünscht.

"Here is Europe. We have happily paid three times as much to Ukraine as the USA. We are not asking for anything in return and we are not extorting the Ukrainians while they are fighting for their lives. Because we are not assholes." - Rasmus Jarlov, Chairman of Denmark's Defence Committee.

I'm totally behind the sentiment, but can we get more info about this data?
Something feels off, specifically in how much the EU has out forward.
Also - this is peanuts. The US spends like 10x that, every year, during peace time.
Ukraine out there fighting an evil world power all by themselves and they're barely getting scraps, this is fucked up... I really hope the EU steps up big time, with that rumoured €700B military spending bill.
