Editorial: Liberation

• Macron considers sending troops to Ukraine, signifying a likely shift in French and possibly European attitudes towards Russia.
• The failure of the Ukrainian counteroffensive during the second anniversary of the Russian invasion, confirms the need for Western military support.
• Navalny's death symbolically cements the ruthless determination of Russia's regime.
• Russia is not only seeking to destabilize Ukraine but Europe as a whole.
• The risk of Trump's pro-Russian ideology and the rising influence of extreme right threaten Europe's integrity.
• Europe's military contribution to Ukraine might be more effective in terms of training and equipment maintenance than direct combat.

Conclusion: There is an urgent need to show Europe's deterrence capability and confront Russian aggression with a more effective approach.
