Ukraine issue fragments the European Union

For a long time, Hungary's President Victor Orban was seen as the rebel in the socialist house of the European Union. Now the conservative has gained a lot of wind beneath his wings in recent months. A few days ago, Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni came out in favor of not supporting an attack on Russia, followed by Holland, Austria, Portugal will come out with a similar statement, and to everyone's surprise: Germany, the crumbling giant of the European Union, also refuses an active attack on Russian territory. While yesterday in the European Parliament they applauded the announcement to release further offensive weapons, at least the majority of parliamentarians so far, it became clear that with the newly elected US President Donald Trump, the faction of reason, those who want to end this war, has received a massive tailwind.

While England, which is deeply involved in the financing of Ukraine and desperately wants to escalate this conflict to harvest russian reperations and cover a looming default, is now floundering, the European Union is likely to break further into two blocs: the centralist socialist bloc in Brussels and those who want regional sovereignty!

Funnily enough, if Ukraine was to win the war and accede to the EU, its MEPs would be heavily politically indebted to the Poles. This would help shift the centre of mass in Parliament towards the Three Seas Initiative participants and help to balance out the socialist currents from Western Europe. The ECR Party might be the main beneficiary.
