Honestly, he's right. Data cable and infrastructure sabotage, assassinations, satellite communications jamming, and constant disinformation campaigns to spur a far right resurgence.

EU needs to start Tatting for russian tits. I would even go so far as to say they need to escalate until russia backs down before it is too late. The problem is civilians are too unwilling to support hostile responses. Happy to keep the peace no matter the cost until it is their turn to get invaded.

While it's good to see a movement away from Merkel's disastrous appeasement of russian imperialism (and Schroder's open collaboration with the russians), it still remains to be seen if Europe will actually take a sober approach towards russia.

For starters, start putting real pressure on all European companies that cooperate with the russian government. Even to this day, many military use items from European companies are sent to russia via intermediaries in central asia. And that's just one example, there are many more (Hungary, Greek shipping companies, the list goes on and on).

And often the products don't even ever reach central Asia. In Finland they make customs papers where it's told that the wares are going to Kazakhstan. And that's okay for Finland, of course. Then on the Russian side, they show customs papers telling that the wares are going to the Russia. And that's okay for the Russia, of course. And then they bring the wares where they've told the Russian customs they will.

That's a ridiculously easy scheme to organize. You don't really even need any coΓΆperation with anybody in Kazakhstan. How this should work is that EU countries would make inspections in Kazakhstan, and if the wares don't reach the inspectors in Kazakhstan by the promised date, the truck's driver gets a punishment, such as being forbidden entry to Schengen area for five years or so. And maybe that could be organized so that the driver only hears about being caught when he's back to the EU again and will lose his truck as a tool used for crime.

Additional context: every time he points to the side hes talking directly to the politicians of the AFD, a far right, russia aligned party which heavily profited off of russian disinformation campaigns in the last election cycle
