World Economic Forum


At the WEF, Ukraine kept up its demand for more military aid to fight its war against Russia, and more financial aid to rebuild after the war, saying the reconstruction fund commitments should start coming in now and not after the war ends. “The more we do now, the less we will have to do in reconstruction," Odile Françoise Renaud-Basso, President of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), said, as quoted by Reuters.

While Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy gave a video address, First lady Olena Zelenska went to Davos in person. In his address, Zelenskyy made an indirect criticism of the US and Germany dithering over sending tanks to his country. “There are times where we shouldn’t hesitate or we shouldn’t compare when someone says, ‘I will give tanks if someone else will also share his tanks,’” Zelenskyy was quoted as saying by Reuters.

I'm wondering when Germany is going to wake up and throw us out of there!

The German people have become very timid. I understand their reluctance to seem too tough, since the war, but what good is that doing them. Their reticence just inspires Neo Nazi groups to proliferate.

The German people should take a lesson from Hungary, who doesn't let anyone push them around.

NATO, my foot! Another phony organization we've created to bully countries into joining.

Yeah, we'll protect them! With What?? We've given it all to Ukraine and that criminal who runs the country.
