Great. Now what? Nobodies gonna put sanctions on China over this, although it gives Russia basically unlimited supply.
China already stated they don't want Russia to lose, so they're not gonna stop by themselves.

Because the west has nothing but cost to gain from drawing this out any more. Russias military has already been demolished, reduced to using drones and rockets. At this point it would make more sense to end this with a win and strenghten Ukraine against further russian aggression.
It would still allow for increased military spending, and all the other stuff they want to do.

Although the west certainly could do more to enable a Ukrainian victory, I don't see their motivation as being the same as Chinas.

That's the nuance. They "don't want to see them lose" doesn't mean they need to win, China probably just likes the destabilizing effect it has on the area. So they prop them up just enough to keep them going.

Good thing the EU has a mutual defense clause that is way tighter than Article 5

No, but hes the defense minister of Merz' government. And Merz kept going on about how he would deliver Taurus when Scholz would not. Pistorius would not say this if it wasn't Merz position as well

No, but in contrast to fossil fuel, burning them does not add to the amount of co2 in the atmosphere

Aaand... there goes another promise Merz made during campaign. And these guys actually dare to go in front of a camera and lament the loss of trust in the government...

And since we've linked them to him we should just seize all of them, sell them and donate the money to the Ukrainian war effort, just like with any ship belonging to the russian shadow fleet or any other russian owned asset we come across. Fuck those animals

Most people renting out have more than one house, so this would affect them still, while not hurting the old couple that rents out parts of their house that got too big for them

And I'm sure these rich people will feel the full force of the law for breaking EU sanctions as well as a boycott by their customers for supporting a genocidal war.... Oh, who am I kidding?

Tell that to Merz, I'm sure he wouldn't invest in kids if they had to learn under a bridge
