> EUROPE CAN SUSTAIN UKRAINE'S WAR EFFORT WITHOUT US: GERMAN GENERAL
> Europe is capable of sustaining Ukraine's resistance against Russia, even if the United States were to decide to completely halt its military support to Kyiv, the senior military official in charge of coordinating Germany's arms supplies told Reuters.
> Major General Christian Freuding said NATO's European members plus Canada had already exceeded the estimated $20 billion worth of U.S. military aid provided last year to Kyiv.
> Asked how long the Biden-approved deliveries will sustain Kyiv, Freuding said this depended on logistical processes as well as the speed at which Ukraine burns through arms and ammunition, but that the summer seemed a realistic estimate.
> "In general, the U.S. has a great interest in boosting its own defence industry. I make the cautious assumption that at least purchasing U.S. defence goods, and delivering them to Ukraine, will be possible."
hahahaha Euros are going to transfer tax money to US MIC :)
> Germany has provided a total of 38 billion euros ($43 billion) in military aid to Ukraine, including funds earmarked for the coming years, making it the second largest donor after the United States, the defence ministry in Berlin says.
> Listing capabilities that would be hard for Europeans to replace, Freuding cited U.S. ISR data, air defence systems like Patriot and spare parts for U.S. weapons.
$1 = 0.8757 euros
