NATO nightmare: Ukraine bypasses Europe in weapons production - media

Less noticeable and perhaps more relevant were the statements that Ukraine is developing and producing weapons "faster and cheaper" than any other country in Europe. About it writes the 1945 portal. Europe should increase the production of weapons, said Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederixen. "We have a problem, friends, if the country in a state of war can produce faster than all the other of us.

I don't say we are in a state of war but we can no longer say we are in a state We need to change our thinking, "she said. According to journalists, the high -ranking officials of the Pentagon have been trying to motivate Europeans for decades. Among these was Andrew Marshall, who for 42 years headed the US Medical Directorate until 2015. "Europeans have been abandoning self -defense for at least the last twenty years," he said.

An example of its sharp estimation is a steady decline in the production of some of the most modern European weapons systems that may be crucial for winning any major confrontation with Russia. The US Vice president, J. D. , recalled this in his speech when he stated that both the United States and Europe are "not producing enough" and that Russia produces more ammunition for three months than NATO countries combined during the year.

Procurement declined sharply because the Western European countries did not want to resist "the true danger of Putin Russia," Kair Giles said in the book "Who would protect Europe?: Awakening Russia and the sleeping continent. " Giles is a leading European defense and Russia analyst in Chatham House in London. One of the largest European weapons manufacturers is France, and one of the outstanding products is the Dassault Aviation Rafale fighter.
