Scholz calls for state of emergency

[GroveHillWanderer]

Sounds as if the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is not best pleased with Trump and Hegseth's unilateral declarations about Ukraine. 

 

A state of emergency would give Scholz the ability to massively increase support to Ukraine.

 

Quote

"Today, we must confront the reality of what the actions and statements from the US administration mean for Ukraine, Europe, and the world. Failure to act will mean a threat to the security of our country and our continent. I will not allow that to happen at this critical time for our country," the German leader promised.

Sweden has also countered the US position, stating that there is no reason why Ukraine can't become a NATO member in future.

IIRC NATO membership is dependent on a unanimous vote of existing members to admit a new member.

 

Under Trump, the US would never agree, as he is too busy kissing Putin's rear end.

 

If Trump pulled out of NATO, that would clear the way.

 

OTOH, it would also signal to the rest of the world an alliance with America is worthless.

More Trump obsession babble. We arent pulling out of Nato as long as they do what they are told, and they will.

 

Its a new day. The free ride is over.

NATO is an alliance and is NOT told by any tinpot dictator like Trump what to do!

Go and look up the word "alliance" in a dictionary and while you are it it read the NATO Atlantic Charter which includes this;

The NATO Motto is "animus in consulendo liber" (Latin for 'a mind unfettered in deliberation').

This is not something you can ever be accused of!

Send your Leopards to Kursk.

It worked out so well last time.

 

Hitler believed that a victory here would reassert German strength and improve his prestige with his allies, who he thought were considering withdrawing from the war.

 

Hey!  

History!

It rhymes!

[hotsun]

Why isnt he calling a state of emergency about this? Germany has got their own problems

Ok Olaf, tell Zelensky you will support the war and send 100s of billions of dollars to him and weapons to keep the fight going. Good luck.

Trump may be your boss and I assume you along with 70million odd other lunatics voted for him will do as he dictates to you!

 

Just remember that NO ONE else in the world voted for him and neither you nor him can or will tell me or other non Americans what to do!

 

Your insufferable arrogance, and that goes for most MAGAlomanics, has the potential to destroy the world order as we know it.

 

Please do not respond!

If you insist in so doing then please refrain from using any of the following as they do NOT apply to the majority of NON MAGAlomaniacs;

Democrat

Leftist

Socialist

Yap yap yap

Lookie, the widdle puppy cant help himself. Isnt he cute. At least he waited a few minutes. 

 

Dude how about a bit of ladvice for you. You are never going to have a happy life stalking and waiting with bated breath and eager anticipation for some anonymous dude to post something on a Forum so you can fire off a silly response. Its sort of childish, but hey, your life.

 

Back to your regularly scheduled stalking. Ill go find something to post about, bet you are on it like a puppy on a dead possum.

Hegseth did not say that Ukraine would never be a member of NATO, he only said that becoming a NATO member would not be part of the negotiations. 

 

What NATO member is ready to put boots on the ground in NATO. 

 

There is talk that as part of the negotiation, that in the event that Russia invaded Ukraine in the future, it would be treated as an attack on a NATO member by the US. 

[thaibeachlovers]

IMO, but for Ukraine Scholz would have remained an unknown nobody outside Germany. Trying to retain his place in the history books with an ineffectual and nonsense pronouncement.

No one is going to give Ukraine a security guarantee. Nobody! It would be suicide considering how the Ukrainian majority enjoys abusing its minorities some of which have a very big brother nearby. Zero chance Putin begins negotiations unless NATO membership is off the table. The President of Ukraine, now considered a dictator because of his cancelling of elections, is grasping at straws. The west have tried for three years to come up with some leverage against Russia. Everything has failed and either Ukraine capitulates or all of the east side of the Dnieper River along with the rest of the coast on the Black Sea will be lost after a year or two more fighting. Think Vietnam after January 1973. Poland, Romania and Hungry can then split up what remains

Hi what side are you on in this topic?

 

Oh, got it, you would rather talk about me, not anything on topic. Thats called stalking and trolling. But good for your post count and admiration among your blathering sycophants.
