If EU wants to be treated like a global player, EU should be deploying in Ukraine. Defeat Russia in its own back yard.

Then EU can start demanding to be treated like equal patner vis a vis US

That's the thing about credibility, it requires hard sick power and result. None of which EU shown thus far.

Trump exposed EU for being weak as bitches and instead of EU doing the thing, they do more sumits and thoughts and prayers.

Nobody is stopping anynof EU member states to deploy in Ukraine. Russia got Koreans helping the JFC..

I'll make you recall this comment when a Russian bomb tore your place apart just because the EU started to be credible.

There are 450m EU citizens at risk. Those are the ones the EU member countries have to care about. Yeah, we hate what Putin did to UA but our priority is EU first and there's nothing wrong about that.

Deploying EU troops on UA territory and let them fight Russian soldiers directly will be seen as an act of war. That's not yet another red line that Russia set up and people ignored. Putin will warm up whatever nukes he has left - not as a threat but as a weapon to use.

And then what? Would you risk everything just to prove what a mean boy you are?

Tuck that dick for Putin harder, boy.

Clearly Europeans forgot their own history.

Pathetic.

That's unfortunately exactly the case. Europeans forgot. Pro-Putin populists and nazis are on the rise in many European countries.
