It has been going since 2014...
Russia just fucked up bad, and now people are putting down the foot. Russians need to see that this "special operation" has run into a wall a bit.
And now that wall ist growing spikes and a moat, and catapults on top. Every idiot needs to understand its about time to gtfo for RU - and the dying will stop from one day to the next.

Yeah, let's see about that.
Some money will defo go to the arsenal of democracy - that's just a no brainer if idiots think they can keep escalating on their neighbor's place, and fix a shitty coup attempt with artillery on residential areas. Should surprise absolutely no one.
The other thing that this is going to do is to ramp up German arms production like you haven't seen in a long time. This step is the gov signing off on it. Nobody really wanted to do it, but Putin and parts of Russian society have clearly illustrated there is no way around it. Defense industry will go on a hiring spree.

The only ones opposing this in Germany are the far left (old romantic socialists - and they are torn even) and the far right AfD (you know what is up with them).
The green party just is ahead of the curve on a lot of issues. That's why Putin and his minions can't stand them.

Up to Russia to end it.
This is just putting in law and budget that Germany is ready to stick it out with Ukraine. Putting money where their mouth is.

>I wouldn't expect any officialist party to oppose NATO whims
Are you sure you're parsing the situation right here?
Dead-in-the-head NATO (Macron) won't see any opposition from "officialist" (whatever that is) parties? Yeah, right - Schröder and Scholz, also known as the "Bloodhounds of the West".
While the US needs to be cajoled to send a couple of tanks? And there is 0 NATO involvement whatsoever (granted there is involvement from countries that ARE IN NATO - but that's kinda hard to avoid here, point in case).
With that cooperation in Iraq and Afg (esp the departure) it should be clear to everyone that everyone is just a US pawn here... /s
Your reading of the situation is about as accurate as Putin's here I think.
If you think the green party
position"rhetoric" is "funny", maybe should try reading some first hand information on their thoughts and principles then?
