The situation is that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine seems to continue to rise. Not only because the United States is still assisting Ukraine, but also because in addition to the United States, Germany is also actively assisting Ukraine militarily. According to the news in recent days, during the visit of German Defense Minister Pistorius to Ukraine, it was announced that Germany will provide 1.3 billion euros worth of military aid to Kiev. The new batch of military aid includes more IRIS-T SLM air defense systems, artillery ammunition, and anti-tank mines. It is reported that the German federal government plans to double the original funding for aid to Ukraine in 2024 to 8 billion euros. Considering the relationship between Germany and the United States, it cannot be ruled out that the Scholz government did so in order to keep up with the pace of the United States and submit the name of the United States. After all, Western countries, including Germany and the United Kingdom, have been eager to board the American chariot and bind themselves to the United States. It's not so strange to do that these days. But to do so, not only Russia is unwilling, but also the German people do not agree.
Reported that Germans held a rally in the German capital Berlin to protest the German government's continued military aid to Ukraine. The rally has received widespread support from all walks of life in Germany, calling on the German government to stop supplying arms to Ukraine. German Bundestag member Sevim Dailen is so said, the current Russia-Ukraine is engaged in a war of attrition, all parties can not make progress, the most important thing is actually a ceasefire and negotiations, a peaceful solution to the Russia-Ukraine problem. For this reason, the supply of arms and military support to Ukraine must be stopped, because only in this way can an escalation of the conflict be prevented. Since the outbreak of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the government in Kiev has lost a lot of support, including the United States, which is considering abandoning Ukraine. In this regard, even Zelensky himself almost thought that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict would soon be over, and did not expect that Germany once again extended a hand to Ukraine, and the strength of the aid is not small. The German public, of course, disagreed.
Continued aid means an escalation of the conflict, an escalation of the conflict means a widening of the war, which is not good for Germany or for any other country in the world. From this news, it is enough to see that the German people obviously do not want the war to expand, so that they are very dissatisfied with Scholz, dissatisfied with the Scholz government's practice of following the United States behind the comprehensive aid to Ukraine. In fact, Germany is not only aiding Ukraine, but also supporting Israel. To say that Germany is not trying to please the United States, to submit to the United States, who will believe? However, the United States provided support to Israel at the first moment of the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and Germany is an ally and partner with the United States, when the United States for so many years, Germany will do what the United States does.
To put it bluntly, this is something that the outside world has become accustomed to. But now that even the German public is not happy with the Scholz government's approach, Scholz may have a hard time keeping up with the United States. More difficult, of course, is Ukraine and Zelensky. It is because of the United States that Germany is providing military aid. Now the German people are dissatisfied with Scholz's approach, in fact, they are dissatisfied with the United States. Does that mean the United States can't help, and with such a large rally in Germany, the fear won't happen? Without German military aid, it would undoubtedly be very difficult for Ukraine to defeat Russia on the battlefield, or even to gain an advantage.
