12 September 2022 at 10:59. The EU is like a big building with two foundations, Germany and France, that hold the big building, so if a problem occurs to one of the foundations, Germany, then it is unclear what will happen to the whole building, the EU. The EU, and Germany, in particular, took a very high risk with the war-sanctions with Russia, which may risk the future of the EU in the mid-long run. The EU should find ways ASAP to reverse the war-sanctions with Russia. In the mid-long run, a weak EU would not be able to help Ukraine, so Ukraine needs a strong EU at the economic level, even if Ukraine paradoxically pushes for another way.
