🇺🇸💶❌🇺🇦 NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg is scrapping plans to set up a five-year fund of military aid for Ukraine after facing pushback from alliance members, and is instead asking countries to keep up their current contributions, people familiar with the matter said - Bloomberg

Under the new proposal, which could get backing from NATO defense ministers when they gather in Brussels next week, allies will commit to spending a total of at least €40 billion ($43 billion) per year on lethal and non-lethal aid for Ukraine.

That would be in line with average annual contributions since Russia’s invasion in 2022, according to the people, who asked not to be identified discussing private deliberations.

NATO would determine each nation’s donation goals based on a percentage of their gross domestic product, and then likely publish totals in an annual report.

The aim would be to provide more transparency about what allies give Ukraine — while gently pressuring any members who don’t meet their commitments, the people said. The US would account for about half the aid, with the alliance’s other 31 members providing the rest.

Stoltenberg had previously floated a plan to pool allied contributions worth $100 billion for five years, but allies questioned its viability amid reluctance to commit to new funds and concerns about misleading Ukraine.

While the new plan wouldn’t involve fresh cash, NATO hopes it would offer Kiev more predictability about the level of support in the coming years. Allies were shaken after the US Congress waited for months to approve a new round of aid and are also concerned about what the possible reelection of Donald Trump in November would mean for Ukraine funding.

🇪🇺 Election results for the European Parliament show a sharp rise in the popularity of right-wing parties:

🇫🇷 Marine Le Pen's National Rally received 32-33% of the votes in France. Macron's party, Renaissance, fell far behind, receiving half as many votes.

🇦🇹 In Austria, the Eurosceptic and anti-war Freedom Party took first place with 29%. Parliamentary elections are also approaching there, where the Freedom Party may come to power.

🇩🇪 Meanwhile, Alternative for Germany managed to secure around 16%, surpassing the Social Democrats who got 14%. In the former East Germany, Alternative for Germany even took first place with 27%.

▪️ For Scholz's party, the results are the worst in its history. The Greens also took a significant hit—down from 21% in 2019 to 12% now. This reflects the crisis with real incomes falling to 2016 levels, the deindustrialization of the country, and the formation of a "rust belt" along the Rhine.

▪️ On the day of the vote, the director of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange—one of the largest in Europe—noted that Germany is transforming from a developed country to a developing one. At this rate, Germany's quality of life is quickly deteriorating to the level of third-world countries.

ℹ️ The new party of Sarah Wagenknecht, the non-systemic left, will receive its 6% and six seats in the European Parliament. In Belgium, Vlaams Belang—the Flemish nationalists and Eurosceptics—took 21%. The worst nightmare of the Eurocracy is coming true.

🤔 US Considers Dealing Directly with Hamas – Without Israel – to Free 5 American Hostages

The deal to free the five American hostages would be hammered out through Qatari mediation if the current effort to reach a comprehensive agreement fails, NBC reported, citing US officials.

The officials did not know what the US could offer Hamas in return, but argued there was an incentive for Hamas to drive a deeper wedge between Biden and Netanyahu as Israel would not be part of the negotiations.
