Kind of difficult to tell the point of the article, but it seems to be about convincing the rest of Europe to contribute more to expanding the euro-amerikkkan-supremacist project... that the yanks can't be the only ones pouring money and weapons into the war. We've seen recently that they're not as willing to bankrupt themselves and sacrifice their own ppl and resources as much as the US hoped.

For that to happen a shift in mindset is needed in Europe. It has committed as much weaponry as America and far more financial aid. Yet it needs to step up further. If Mr Trump wins in 2024, he may cut back American military assistance. Even if he loses, Europe will eventually need to carry more of the burden. That means beefing up its defence industry and reforming the eu’s decision-making so it can handle more members.

The stakes could hardly be higher. Defeat would mean a failed state on the eu’s flank and Mr Putin’s killing machine closer to more of its borders. Success would mean a new eu member with 30m well-educated people, Europe’s biggest army and a large agricultural and industrial base. Too many conversations about Ukraine are predicated on an “end to the war”. That needs to change. Pray for a speedy victory, but plan for a long struggle—and a Ukraine that can survive and thrive nonetheless.
