I’m also annoyed with the German Chancellor Scholz who is suffering from mirroring. He is withholding support for #Ukraine because he’s worried about escalation.

Escalation is entirely a Western concept. Russia will always do as much as it thinks it can get away with.

Russia will also suffer from mirroring, so they might be assuming that NATO already has secret troops doing a lot in Ukraine when we are not.

This means Scholz is withholding, worried about escalation on a thing that Russia thinks is happening and is already responding to.

So there is a lot more we can do without consequence. All NATO air defences should be covering the East of Ukraine. The fact some drones even flew through NATO airspace unhindered is just so unacceptable.
