Ex-CIA Director Petraeus: Putin became NATO’s greatest gift since the Cold War.

For years the threat seemed gone, defense was deprioritized.

I expect Merz to show more leadership. Germany is Europe’s largest economy and now the world’s 3rd

Welt: What could bring Putin to talks?

Petraeus: When Ukraine proves he can’t win at acceptable cost.

Around 950,000 Russians are killed or wounded, 500,000 can’t return.

2/
Welt: What do you mean by “additional support”, Taurus?

Petraeus: Yes, and more air and missile defenses Ukraine can’t yet make itself.

Its arms industry is now the world’s most innovative.

With more funding, Ukraine could build 4–5M drones this year vs 1.5M last year.
