>Also, didn't Europe earlier this year just have a five-minute bout of hypernationalization when Trump was elected, where they scrambled to posture about how they're going to invest tons and tons of money into like, making German weapons and French weapons and blah blah blah so they don't have to buy from the US?
>What happened to that?
>Why is Zelensky not buying from them?
It was just posturing so Trump wouldn't walk away from the alliance. Even if Europe wanted to militarize and ramp up weapon production it would take years, maybe even decades
>Why do they need to hand him money, to buy from us? Surely they have their own weapon factories.
Trump wants to wash his hands from the war and the Europeans are too broke to buy said weapons despite promises. The war has been lost but all this posturing is because nobody wants to look like the party that lost the war
