With the expiration of New START, if the Kremlin can secure a bilateral agreement that includes constraints on U.S. nuclear weapons programs, a deal may be possible. But this seems very unlikely at this point.

The European Commission’s quarterly energy/gas market reports note that Russian gas imports have declined in 2025, and that in one quarter (unspecified), total Russian gas imports fell “27 % quarter-on-quarter.”This same report also stated that total Russian gas imports to the EU dropped from ~150 billion cu meters in 2021 to ~52 billion cu meters in 2024.

Russian GRU could manufacture "false flag" events that lead to actions below the threshold of war, having the effects of a military invasion with no actual uniformed troops taking part.
Why do you think you're right?
EU is already financing Ukrainian munitions including rockets signals sustained European commitment through 2025.
Why might you be wrong?
HIMARS have historically required active U.S. intelligence sharing with UAF. If there is a chance that this intelligence could get cut off again, the EU may need to consider other options for UKR.
