Frederick Marse, which is ready to become an Affer of Germany, his Christian Democratic Union Party has won the country on 23 February, stating that Europe has asked Europe to establish a “independent” defense capability as the US is “largely for Europe’s fate”.
An highest priority of any new European defense mechanism will protect Ukraine, now in its fourth year of trying to fight the Russian invasion.
The country has thus lived in large parts due to the heavy flow of American military aid provided by the then President Joe Biden. The new President Donald Trump Hash said that he wants to end the war and recover the costs of Washington, demanding Ukraine that Ukraine has provided access to the country’s mineral money in exchange for the US tens of dollars, the US has spent the US spent in defense of Ukraine.
The Russian service of the Voice of America asked experts to assess the capacity of European countries to help Ukraine to help Ukraine for military and economically, Russian invasion, and its destroyed infrastructure.
Andry Zolotarev, director of Third Sector Analytical Center, director of a kiev-based think tank, told the VOA that American military aid is uniquely important for rescue of Ukraine.
“In particular, US HU HU HUSSI OwDs, they are seriously important intelligence suppliers,” he said. “All European countries took together, not satellite groups like the United States. In addition, the US has extremely important and indeed irplaceable types of weapons for Ukraine – Patriot [missile defense] Systems, atacms [long-range guided missiles]Himar [multiple launch rocket systems]Also spare parts for armored vehicles and artillery systems, and more. It cannot be exempted in any way.
According to Zolotarev, while Europe produces advanced weapons and other military equipment, the European Union in association with Great Britain can only partial compensation what Ukraine will like if the US stops providing assistance.
He said, “Their efforts can reduce negative effects, but do not want to avoid unpleasant coniferous,” he said. “This simply wants to delay in unavoidable end. Europe is currently the best economic and military shape.
A self-reliant Russian human rights activist and former lawyer, Mark Figin mentioned in an interview with VOA that Europe included two countries with nuclear arsenal, Great Britain and France, and are collectively rich. This is not “a single unit”.
“The strength of the United States is that it makes this or that decision in a centralized manner, which then continuously applies,” said. “Europe’s capacity is scattered … In addition, the political situation in the European Union countries is very unstable. … It makes European people effective using its clear advantage.

Reconstruction Ukraine
Experts believe that post -reconstruction of Ukraine’s war will eventually be funded by private European investment. According to some estimates, it can range from $ 500 billion to $ 2 trillion price. However, the longer the war continues, the more difficult it is to finance Ukraine. But the main question is – who will pay for it?
“Well, Idally, it must be Russian money,” said economist Alexi Bayer. “It should be like more re -evaluation or some taxes on the export of oil and gas and other minerals, on Russian exports.”
However, Bayer told the VOA that it is “unlikely” that any Russian government, “even a post-tutin one, too, will agree to a voluntary salary Ukraine.”
While Russian property in Western banks – can be used for reconstruction of Ukraine, including Tens in Forex and Gold Reserve conducted by the central bank of Russia, which the thor will fully request a expression.
Many experts say that despite the warm discussion of this option in the press, neither the US government nor the European governments will take a step.
“This is one thing to freeze the property; This is another thing to seize the property, “said Alexander Kole, Professor of Political Science at Barnard College.
“It is a legal conflict at that time that is happening in the US and the European Union and Western countries, and it is being prosecuted continuously, and it is an uncertain region. … I think you will find the Trump administration less favorable to seize Russian property, especially it is moving forward to settle the conflict, and one from the primary Russian asks that their property is to be unfresing and removing the said.
Cliff Kuppan, president of the Eurasia Group, agreed that Europe is unlikely to support the seizure of frozen Russian property for a political risk consultation in New York.
He said, “I think it is going to remain with the idea of breaking international criteria on European Russia and feared Russia, as I think they will seize Western government property and Western private assets,” he said.
And while Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelanski and various Western officials and experts have called for a “martial scheme” for reconstruction of Ukraine – a reference to Western Europe of Western Europe – a reference to Western Europe – stated that there is an American initiative on that scale for rebuilding Ukraine. Unexpected.
“Right now, America is not only interested, but it actively opposed the idea. Trump thinks that Ukraine is still another example of Europe on American money.
Nevertheless, Kupchan said that European investment for reconstruction will eventually flow into Ukraine, if there is a ceasefire that eventually catchs and there are Western peace forces to ensure it.
“I don’t think it would slow down,” he said in the context of post -reconstruction of Ukraine’s War. “As it would be almost that if there was a martial plan? No. Lazy? then no. ,
