  1. if a 30-day ceasefire is not established in Ukraine by the end of Monday, Berlin, together with its European partners, WILL(!) BEGIN(!) PRE-PE-A-RING(!) new sanctions against Russia.

  2. >**Details:** Kornelius said that Russia must agree to an unconditional 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine by the end of Monday, or it will face new sanctions.

    Anyone taking bets?

  3. That would sound more convincing of they phrased it like ” today at 11:59 all Russian assets in the EU become EU property.”

  4. Well, it’s just the threat of sanctions.
    But I still like that our new government already seems to have a harsher tone towards Russia than the old one.

  5. I’m pretty sure Putin’s administration laughs at the West’s inability to do anything significant.

  6. Define them and threaten to impose them. Starting to plan isn’t a threat.

  7. I don’t know how much more we Germans can sanction them, but I’m pretty sure there are still a lot of Russian assets in Germany.
    I like the ultimatum — Zeit ist Geld. Literally.

  8. Or else angry fist waving and an angry letter will be sent

  9. Or what? 😄 They’ll trade even more through Kyrgyzstan or Serbia?

  10. Every day the war goes on costs Russia a lot of money. Human losses, military production, economic losses and sanctions come on top of that.

    Their economy is quite small, so this will affect them for a long time. They will not be competitive and borrowing money will be expensive for them. If you think Russia couldn’t be a bigger shithole than it currently is, you’re wrong.

    Increasing sanctions and support for Ukraine is quite a serious deal, even if the steps are small.

  13. I’m really not a fan of Merz, but if he actually follows through and puts some nasty sanctions on the table in a press conference later this evening, he definitely earned some mad respect.

  14. This war has been going on for 3 years now and somehow Europe, which has been squealing the loudest about supporting Ukraine, still doesn’t have maximum sanctions on Russia? What a joke. I’m sure Putin is just shaking in his boots right now.

  15. EU: YOU MUST STOP RIGHT NOW OR ELSE we will do nothing at all.

  16. instead of stupid sanctions why not a complete embargo? Just asking

  20. Russia simply does not give any fucks about what the EU members think though

  23. I thought the deadline was end of day Sunday??? Now it’s end of day Monday, tomorrow another EOD and so on.

  24. Didn’t putin already said “no” publicly? What is this one extra day going to achieve? This is stupid, just fucking do what you warned you would do, or get the fuck out and give Ukraine all the weapons they need to finally finish it

  26. Russia: Please allow for 3 working days for a proper response.

  27. This is crazy, quote from article “Berlin, together with its European partners, will begin preparing new sanctions against Russia.” BEGIN PREPARING? Really? Don’t you have to BE prepared before making a threat???

  28. If boots on the ground were the consequence then this would be newsworthy.

    Carry on

  30. The threats of new sanctions are always so weird to me. Why haven’t we imposed all possible sanctions yet? Wtf is going on?

  31. Now if Putin agrees by their deadline he looks weak, so he won’t.

  32. I see alot of people crying ”its so weak”.

    Thats not the point, and im not sure why everyone seems to be caught up with this.

    This is calling the russian bluff towards peace. Show your Cards or choose a united front dedicated towards Russian destruction.

    This is also to demonstrate how pointless the american efforts have been. Nobody sane who actually followed Russia the last 8 years actually believed in the NATO provokation nonsense.

    This was always about grabbing land and rare minerals, plus energy through the nuclear power.

    And lastly to gain monopoly on fertilizers:

    So this nonsense drama thats come out of the white house is now also called out, big time.

    Rússia has zero intentions towards peace nor cease fire. And Europe first and foremost is prepared to step up further actions, starting with more sanctions.

    But are not ruling out military commitment. EU has added nearly 700 billion to the defence budget this year, germany alone has created a network of drone production factories that act like swarms and can make decisions independently.

    This is really what the Germans are making known, without disclosing too much.

    Plus – Russian economy is in shambles. And they have together with Trump tried to push towards letting up the sanctions. Again, this is also clarification from Europe.

    0 negotiation, lay down arms. 24 hours to comply.

    This cant be bluffed like all the other negotiation nonsens Done by the US. Its comply or accept whats coming next.

    This is not weak by any measure.

  33. Russia has till the end of the day or they will give the Russian ambassador and embassy a strongly worded letter of disapproval!

  34. for a second i thought these mfs were gonna have a rematch at stallingrad

  35. Taurus missiles about to be unlocked and unloaded on Moscow.

    Blessings

  37. Stop with this ceasefire nonsense. Keep the sanctions and use the frozen assets to help Ukraine War effort.

    Russian Lost this war they moment they failed the Kiev siege. Sanctions hurt them more than Ukrainians drones ever will.

  38. This just comes across as pathetic from Germany. They won’t do anything relevant
