Reverse mathematics, spending rose from 215b and 130b to 115b. Al Jazeera

Ukraine war contributed to the rise of Germany’s borrowing in 2022​

The German government’s net borrowing rose to 115.4 billion euros ($124.5 billion) in 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, according to the Finance Minister Christian Lindner.
The government borrowing of 2022 was at its third-highest level in the country’s history, following a record 215.4 billion euros in 2021 and 130.5 billion in 2020, according to the finance ministry.
“We are not exhausting all borrowing possibilities by hook or by crook, but only as far as necessary,” Lindner said.
Germany spent 481.3 billion euros last year, 14.5 billion euros less than planned, according to the finance ministry. This compared to an expenditure of 557.1 billion euros in 2021.
The German parliament suspended the constitutionally enshrined debt brake between 2020 and 2022 to allow for extra spending in response to the pandemic and the effects of the war in Ukraine.

Top EU officials to visit Ukraine​

More than a dozen senior European Union officials will visit Ukraine’s capital Kyiv on February 2 to meet with the members of the Ukrainian government, a day before the EU-Ukraine summit, according to the European Commission spokeswoman.
The visit demonstrates “the extent of our work with Ukraine” and shows the EU’s support for the country, the European Commission spokeswoman Dana Spinant said.
Spinant told AFP that “around 15 commissioners” – out of 27 – could visit Kyiv for the meeting.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy meet European Council and European Commission Presidents Charles Michel and Ursula von der Leyen on February 3 to discuss financial and military support for their fight against Russia.

From this year Russia will start to slowly recover from the effect that the sanctions have had in that they will establish new suppliers and partnerships for trade. China will be a key partner in this since they hold a lot of sway over many countries who might otherwise not trade with Russia. So this conflict is going to just drag on and more lives will be wasted by old men who have hundreds of millions in the bank and will simply retire at some point without a thought of all the lives thrown away. The longer it drags on the more it favors Russia and eventually the West will have to officially enter the conflict since there will be no more Ukrainians left. As it is, I hear in Soledar that there were a few UK "contractors" KIA as well as a few other nationals.

Even RT would reject this as being too far fetched :X3:
