Russia is further escalating its war in Ukraine: Moscow is mobilizing 300.000 additional soldiers and talks about using, quote, "all military means", including the use of nuclear weapons. . Also, Moscow is orchestrating four so-called referendums to annex four Ukrainian provinces. Western governments unanimously condemn those sham referendums - but will countries like Germany now finally send those heavy weapons that Kyiv needs to repel the Russian aggression? That's our topic today on To The Point: War in Ukraine: Is there still time to de-escalate?

Our guests:

Moritz Gathmann, Chief reporter at the German politics monthly Cicero, he has lived in Russia for many years and travelled to Ukraine recently
Aylin Matlé, an expert on German and US defense policy at the German Society for Foreign Policy.
