macron?

Macron isn't calling out the extortion, he's quietly accepting it for now. His domestic political problems have majorly crippled him in Brussels. He doesn't have the political capital to lead a resistance so he's keeping his head down for the moment.

As if an eu independent military capacity (which is needed) comes for free - good that the scandis and other are calling out that hypocrisy

It is not wrong for Sanchez to say he's not going to make military pledges under the existing extortion racket where money will flow across the Atlantic to Trump. He's saying there needs to be a framework for sovereign independent European command of new spending. And there isn't one.

Ok but Sanchez is also the one who didn't want to rearm because "Russia will not invade the Pyrenees". His support to Ukraine is one of the lowest of all Europe. He doesn't want to buy US weapons but he doesn't want to buy European weapons either.
