1. Why is Gazprom bank still open???
2. Luxembourg spends 0.57% on defense, this is insanely low.
3. Luxembourg made a first round of military aid to Ukraine: [https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/3416043-luxembourg-to-send-antitank-weapons-to-ukraine.html](https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/3416043-luxembourg-to-send-antitank-weapons-to-ukraine.html) but I have not seen reports it has been delivered. Regardless, can’t they send all their NLAWS and buy more later?
Edit: I am quite proud of Luxembourg for the open arms for Ukrainian refugees. I think there are 5,000 or more here. They are being treated well. I do worry about where they will live as most are in SHUK which cannot be pleasant.
Seems spending goes up/down more or less in proportion with each country’s distance from the conflict
With the exception of Germany of course
I’m always a bit wary of conclusions based on stats for Lux. I guess this one is realistic, so yay.
As a German, I am deeply ashamed of how they handled the war and still do. It is a huge embarrassment and one more situation that makes me glad I changed country. Nobody is doing everything right, but Germany? Wow. Just wow.
