@cepr_org finds that €1 buys 3-5x more defence in Ukraine than in Germany, while $25-40B of Ukrainian capacity sits idle without orders.

The EU has allocated another €1.24B for Ukrainian-made drones, interceptors and missiles. Long-term demand is critical for the industry, helping manufacturers scale and attract investment. Every additional Ukrainian-made weapon brings a just peace closer.

Ukraine has won a landmark legal case in international chess. The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that attempts to legitimize russian activities in occupied Ukrainian territories through sport are illegal. Checkmate, this time in court.
