German chancellor Olaf Scholz's governing coalition has agreed to double German military aid for Ukraine next year to 8 billion euros ($8.54 billion), Bloomberg News reported on Saturday, citing people familiar with the matter.

If approved by the parliament in Berlin where Scholz's parties hold a majority, the boost would lift Germany's defense spending beyond the 2% of gross domestic product target pledged by all North Atlantic Treaty Organization members, the report added.

That’s $5.65 billion a month for 20 months.

Just one month's worth would have built much/all of the wall.

The Soviet Union didn’t ally with Britain and France in 1939, because The Soviet Union demanded Poland in return for allying with Britain and France.

I doubt Germany is doing anything out of the goodness of their heart. There’s some payback...and I’m betting it’s connected to fuel from Russia.....like opening up Nord...

The problem isn’t how much the military aid is worth, but rather the fact that West’s ability to provide military products is so atrophied that actual hardware is next to impossible to provide, beyond what was left over from the Cold War.

(hint to Neocons: Next time you want to take over the world, please start with beefing up military production capabilities, instead of the other way around.)
