France and Germany are opposing EU efforts to close a loophole that allows high-end goods, including luxury cars, to enter Russia through Belarus, Politico reports.

Germany is “irritating” many NATO allies by opposing the word “mission” in the title of a new program to support Ukraine. This was reported by dpa.
They want to call the program NATO Mission Ukraine, and Germany opposes the word “mission” due to fears that this will create a false impression about the Alliance’s alleged intentions to send Western military personnel to Ukraine and Russian propaganda will additionally use this to promote the narrative of an “aggressive bloc.”
For almost all other allies, these arguments from Berlin seem to look absolutely “incomprehensible” and “an unnecessary glance at Russia.”
