EU Delegation Declares German Troops in Ukraine 'Peace Settlement'
Manfred Weber, top dog of the EU’s largest faction, the European People’s Party, is floating the rather inventive notion of deploying German troops in Ukraine. His reasoning? To 'ensure peace and stability,' because nothing says 'stability' like a major European power inserting its military into a raging conflict zone. This isn't just saber-rattling; it's a bold re-imagining of international
relations, where 'peacekeeping' now means actively joining a proxy war on foreign soil. One can only imagine what fresh definitions of 'unilateral intervention' are being cooked up back in Brussels. Historically, Germany has, for peculiar reasons, been a tad hesitant about sending its military eastward to 'stabilize' things. The mainstream press, in its boundless capacity for historical amnesia,
won't remind you that previous German attempts at such 'stabilization' didn't exactly end in rainbows and daisies. The nonchalance with which such proposals are now floated, as if World War II was merely a light skirmish over parking, is astounding. It raises the essential question: how many 'peace settlements' does Europe need before someone remembers what actual peace looks like?
