Giving Putin what he wanted in reward for invading Ukraine is foolish and anti-libertarian. Libertarians stand up for the aggressed against those who attack them. Putin started this war illegally to seize territory and no decent person should stand for it.

The European Union is preparing to announce a historic €700 billion aid package for Ukraine. The project was top secret but "accidently let out" after the US visit to EU. This is unprecedented in scale and declaws Trump & Putin's plot to force Ukraine to surrender to plunder it for its resources.🧵
Annalena Baerbock speaks to the press at the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs in Paris, with flags of Germany and the EU in the background.But Federal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock rushed ahead and gave an insight into the scale. Baerbock hinted that it could be about 700 billion euros: "We will launch a large package that has yr baan-sam za Me come broom Beerbock said in an interview with Bloomberg on the sidelines of the Munich meeting. "Similar to the euro or the corona crisis, there is now a financial package for security in Europe. That will come in the near future."
Speaking on Bloomberg Television on Monday. Lithuanian Defense Minister Dovile Sakaliene said the "realization that it is not the United States that will defend Europe, but that Europe will defend itself with the help of the United States will dramatically change the security situation on the continent. "We need to spend quickly on defense, and we need to spend a lot, hundreds of billions need to be spent immediately," she said. "We will all need to act quickly, including Germany."
