I’m German and think we spend too little on our own military - to the point where it’s a joke.

Europe needs to grow up and get able to defend itself.

And also maybe stop sponsoring and doing business with oppressed regimes too (yes China too)? I'm baffled that Nord Oost pipe project is at the latest stages right now, and W.Europe is considering putting the energy shackles without any extra thought. In a similar vain I'm puzzled that Netherlands are just doing business with Russia like normal after what happened with MA17. I perfectly understand that sitting cozy in their homes is what only matters to the most of people, but it's just sad that we are slaves of our own comfort and refuse to see a bigger picture.
