Another gray day has set into Poznan along with lower temperatures. I actually had to turn the heat back on.
The sweet potato and ginger soup I made last night turned out very good. There is enough left over for two days.
Meanwhile:
Sweden will donate 16 billion kronor ($1.6 billion) in fresh military aid to Ukraine, the government said on Monday – the largest such package from the Nordic country since Russia’s 2022 invasion.
Swedish Defense Minister Pal Jonson told reporters that Sweden wanted “to send the message now that we are both intensifying our support and increasing its strength and scope.”
“There are strong reasons to do so in light of the seriousness of the situation in Ukraine,” Jonson added.
The US’ role as Ukraine’s biggest arms supplier is at an end and if Ukraine wants American weapons in the future, it will only be for cash on the barrelhead, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said at a Friday press conference.
The Ukrainian leader, in response to a reporter question about past and future American assistance to Ukraine, said that Kyiv has no expectations of future US assistance without paying for it first.
“If we are talking about anything in the future, new support, new support packages, then the United States of America can set whatever conditions they see fit. It’s clear that that team [the Trump administration] will do nothing for us in the future without being paid. They say that officially,” Zelensky said.
