It's not enough. You need to realise that there is now a very real possibility that Europe may soon be fighting a war for it's survival against both Russia & the USA, just like Ukraine has been doing. Stop playing softball with either, by doing so you put the security of all Europeans in jeopardy.

Senate Banking just launched the Trumpflation Tracker. The affordability crisis is not a “hoax” like Donald Trump says. See for yourself how much more you’re paying because of Trump’s failed economic agenda

Trumpflation Tracker. Cumulative inflation since Dec. 2024: 5.2%, approximately $3,388 more for the average household. Real wage growth since start of Iran War: -0.7%. Wages aren’t keeping up with Trump’s inflation. 30-year mortgage rate up from 5.99% before the war to 7.6%, or $4,330 more per year for a typical household. Household debt, Q1 ’25 to Q2 ’26: +$56B. Families going into more debt just to get by. Total cost to American borrowers of Trump’s broken promise to cap credit card interest rates: $94.9B. Share of each extra dollar of income going to household debt: 52¢. Take-home income up $109/month since 2022; debt payments up $57. Cost of Living Basket Since Dec. 2024: Electricity +12.7%, approximately $222 more for the average household. Rent +5.1%, approximately $256 more. Gasoline +43.7%, approximately $758 more. Groceries +3.7%, approximately $211 more. Child Care +7.6%, approximately $852 more. Health Care +14.6%, approximately $929 more for average family coverage.

Speed and scale of #MilitaryMobility operations is essential to deter aggression, to prevent war. Member States alone cannot do it. Military & civilians alone cannot do it. But as a Union – we can. That’s why the Commission has proposed an ambitious military mobility Package.
