First, Hessen came up this week and did the pre-announcement that 25,000 extra kids will be enrolled when school starts next week.
Where they came from? Ukraine.
Extra teachers just hanging around? Well....no. You would be talking about them going out and find another 1,000 (minimum) qualified teachers. Add to it....most of the Ukraine kids don't speak German. Somewhere in this mess....there's probably over 3,000 Ukrainian female teachers in Germany, and they will likely rig up some type of employment situation for them.
Second, the German Bundeswehr (Army) announced that 100 members with 35 vehicles are being deployed shortly into Lithuania....to ensure 'protection' in case Russia gets aggressive. The end of the story? No.....at some point in the next month or two.....there will be 2,000 additional Bundeswehr troops placed in Lithuania.
Is there a threat? Four months ago, I would have suggested that Russia might have been stupid enough to add the three Baltic countries to their list. Now? Not so much.
