Plus, I don't get it why everybody thinks that it was Germany's, or any other single NATo countries, decision what ang how much aid Ukraine was getting when. First was a bunch former Warsaw pact gear, then NATO decided to send top notch hardware, namely Abrams Leopard and Challenger 2s.

So far, the whole miltary NATO aid for Ukraine, which started years before the actual invasion, seems to work out rather well.

Nothing of that has anything to do with layoffs, that economic crisis was bound to happen after COVID and decades of free money.
