This news clearly demonstrates that neither Germany nor France are falling for the US war narrative, the Americans take weapons to Ukraine, the French and Germans offer talks, the other NATO countries have to follow the US lead because they depend on it, but France and Germany don't depend, that's a slap in the face to the USA.There is quite a not of propaganda deployed these days.
I don't think we can draw any conclusions so soon. Probably need to wait a week or more to get a clearer picture of what has actually happened
Just by having the possibility of extending talks between Russia and Ukraine around the Minsk Protocol, Crimea should at no time enter into discussion, it demonstrates the impartiality of the actors in reaching an outcome by avoiding war, pursuing peace. I'm sure the NATO Secretary General hated this, the US I know he hated it because just today they expelled some diplomats from the Russian embassy in Washington, raising the tension.
