Meanwhile the main right/far right party that claims to want to oppose Russia (which does not align with their policies of the past two decades and mainly seems to have been opposition talk) are working hard to normalize possible coalitions with the Putin funded AfD fascists.

The "Liberal" FDP is trying to crawl up the butt of Musk and was already reluctant to help Ukraine since the beginning, later changing their stance only to use Ukraine funds as a reason to cut climate investments and social programs.

The SPD, who has chancellor Scholz, has been reluctant to send Taurus missiles, and ran their campaign for the EU 2024 elections on "Peace" w.o. clear stances as to how they want to reach it.

Meanwhile the Left party has been talking about lackluster sanctions on Russias "shadow fleet" used to circumvent oil sanctions and sell back oil products to the EU at inflated prices, which the EU only addressed now that Trump wants to steal all ressources from Ukraine in "exchange" for Russia getting the rest of Ukraine.

The only party that is currently in parliament and wanted to provide Ukraine properly with weapons is the Green party, however also compromising on stricter sanctions against Russia while being in the now defunct government with SPD and FDP.

Problem is giving Russia money to buy weapons and giving Ukraine weapons does not change the tide. It just causes more deaths. The Left party is opposed to sending weapons directly, but wants harder sanctions against Russia, while pushing harder for diplomacy.

So in terms of the tide for Ukraine it isn't fundamentally different between Greens and Left, but the same front lines would come with less deaths. Problem of the Green party is that until Trumps second victory they were all the way up the US butt in terms of foreign policy, which is part of the problems the EU faces now that Trump tosses the EU aside.
