Germany, which overcame its initial reluctance to support Ukraine to become the country’s biggest European supplier of military aid, looks poised to change course as the finance minister said the government would slash future assistance by half in order to fulfill other spending priorities.

Damn it, Germans. Stop making everything in your language sound scary.
This is legitimately scary though. It haunts me in my dreams
