Were this post a bingo card, the author would most likely get the prize. So many of the usual empty statements are here:

-"spreading Russian disinformation"
-"a Russian victory would signal to autocratic regimes worldwide"
-"undermine European security and democratic institutions"
-"Europe can’t afford to lose Ukraine"

and the list goes on. The author is clearly misguided -- or consciously aiming for a job in the EU/NATO after graduation.

He missed what is perhaps the most important elements to understand the situation:

The European Union does NOT have the means to be a decisive player on the matter. Everytime the EU plans to do something, it needs US backing. The explanation is not "we consult with our allies, we do things together." No, the explanation is: The EU is powerless on the matter. Having a plan or not is worthless if you do not have the means to enforce it. The Western wonder weapons have proved ineffective on the battlefield. Moreover, Ukraine is running out of manpower. If the author is seriously about "Europe can’t afford to lose Ukraine", then there is one and only one option on the table: Sending European soldier to fight in Ukraine.

The author is also misguided in saying that the EU should "starting with confiscating frozen Russian assets." It seems the author has no idea about the implications of doing it. This would trigger an enourmous wealth exodus out of the EU space. Talking about confiscating Russian assets might sound like a good chest-pumping move, but it create more trouble for the EU than it would solve.

Interestingly, the author does not cite Merkel or Hollande, former leaders of Germany and France and guarantors of the Minsk II agreement, when they said that they never meant to enforce Minsk II. Now, all Europeans keep their "Pikachu face" as if they cannot understand why this conflict started.
