Germany’s finance ministry is refusing to give money to buy more ammunition after they wasted all of their stocks in the Ukraine.

Germany’s Federal Ministry of Finance has reportedly rejected an urgent call by Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht for more money to deal with a massive ammunition shortfall in the country’s military.
In a letter seen by the German Press Agency (DPA), Finance State Secretary Steffen Saebisch said there appeared to be a “different perception” as to the cause of the ammunition crisis among munitions manufacturers.
The finance ministry’s response comes after the SPD’s Lambrecht had reportedly written to her coalition partner, Federal Finance Minister Christian Lindner of the FDP, demanding more funds.
While Lambrecht blamed a lack of funding for the ammunition shortfall and requested more money “immediately in a significant amount,” Saebisch said industry representatives believed the sluggish availability of equipment and ammunition was ‘not due to a lack of budgetary funds’ but to the defense ministry’s “complicated, sometimes non-transparent and inconsistent” ordering processes.
Talk about a shit show.
Do you know who isn’t running out of ammunition? The Russians.
There is no way for the Ukraine to win the war. Europe is collapsing economically and deindustrializing at a rapid rate.
