To be honest, I've never really been afraid of Russian attacks, especially on energy infrastructure like last winter. But this time it's fundamentally different. We're practically naked, without Patriots and without effective air defenses against ballistic missiles or cruise missiles. This would be the moment when Merz could deliver on his grand promises and send us all the Taurus fighter jets so we could destroy the cruise missile launch sites. But as it is, this uneasy feeling persists, and we're already preparing for winter. As best as one can, anyway. And I will neither understand nor accept that the rest of the world knows this and just stands by and watches. None of the responsible politicians has the guts to say, "Enough is enough, Putin."
