Listening to a Portuguese MEP and he felt that Europe and in particular Germany has let the Ukraine down badly and their is a lot of hidden guilt about , he felt mediation via china might be the answer but held out not much hope .

NATO is the same always been cautious about butting up to the Russian border .

Someone has blood on their hands thought years of apathy or for selfish reasons i.e. Gas ??
