Will partition in Europe stop a reliable answer on Ukraine and Defense?

“This is definitely a way to focus on our brain – and wallet! Donald Trump is a favor, If We choose to think about it in this way. And we can see the bright side. Otherwise this time is very dark. ,

The words of a diplomat from a major European country, after Donald Trump, speaking after closing the military aid tap for Ukraine on Monday. He asked not to be a name, so he can share his thoughts more independently.

In Washington, the continuity of changes, and speed, dizziness may occur. Not only for the consumers of the news but also for politicians.

Europe is beating the foot to react effectively.

There is a frenzy of diplomatic activity: bilateral, late -night leader phone calls, European Hadl in London and in Paris, meetings of NATO Defense Ministers in Brussels. An emergency security summit of European Union leaders is also scheduled on this Thursday.

This is a big moment in European history.

Most European countries believe that the safety of the whole of Europe, not only the sovereignty of Ukraine, is at stake since the end of the Cold War with the end of the Cold War, is looking to destroy the western face balance of power.

Washington, which is the back of Europe in terms of security and defense since World War II, now manifests “not to care about the fate of Europe”, which prepares Germany’s Frederick Merz to be the next leader of the continent’s largest economy.

But what are really all big name European meetings and summit?

Just a few hours ago Washington stopped military aid to KyivUK Prime Minister Sir Kire Stmper, who is taking a lead in Europe in Ukraine, Announced that this was the time of “no action not words”Meanwhile, European Commission Chairman Ursula von Der Leyen said Europe should convert Ukraine to “Steel Porpin”, which contains immediate, additional weapons delivery.

What continent can actually act as one, though? Europe is the total amount of different countries with different domestic politics and priorities of various sizes.

Europe’s purpose in taking this defense action is also two times:

First, Donald will now “lift” to show Trump to show that – Britain’s Prime Minister – in Europe’s words to defend himself. Europe hopes that Trump to resume Ukraine’s military support, and to complete the current American security for Europe, to maintain current American security for Europe as a whole, if he believes that they are no longer “freeloading” from the United States.

But in addition, Europe leaders will need to immediately promote their own defense and support for Kiev anyway, if Donald Trump goes away from Ukraine, and more widely lower the line in terms of safety than Europe.

It is not only for Washington that Europe feels that it is a point to prove.

Russia is also watching.

Various high-profiles, Big-Platting European emergency meetings should now produce rapid, impressive, practical results, otherwise in the eyes of Kremlin, Europe looks weak and weak.

Moscow has already noticed the “partition” seen in western unity.

Donald Trump says The President of Ukraine is a dictator.

Russia knows that, now everyone is now defending themselves about Europe, any security expert that you accept that-at least the smallest-medium period-Europe still needs America.

That is why in Washington last week, we saw the French President and the Prime Minister of UK separately, To woo Donald Trump.

The US has filled the yawning gap in European defense, which has been abandoned for years of chronic under-investment after the end of the Cold War.

The number of soldiers in Europe decreased with the end of consent in most European countries. The US has about 100,000 soldiers and nuclear weapons in various parts of Europe under NATO’s nuclear sharing policy. Many of them are in non-atomic, major European power Germany, which should withdraw support to Donald Trump for Russia’s seriously exposed fear.

If manage to assemble the UK and France, they say the “coalition of the interested” – the European country that after a ceasefire agrees to send a minor number of peacekeeping soldiers in Ukraine to send it to the European forces – who can spread the European forces and expose the interval.

This is why Poland is not ready to do soldiers for that “alliance”. It says that to defend themselves against Russia, soldiers need to be kept at home. It also hopes that America will not pull its troops out of Eastern Europe.

But Europe also depends on the US for military capabilities that ensure the operation to run smoothly. They are known as “ignitions”.

To maintain a strong hand against Russia, for example, Ukraine is overshadowed by American intelligence.

A European peace or “assurance” force in Ukraine will require American support to install an air shield on Ukraine. Europe lacks air-to-air fuel fuel abilities, as well as monks that can exclude air rescue in Russia if necessary.

These ingredients cannot be purchased in a hurry in local cash-end-karey “because an European politician kept it with me.

This is the reason why other people in Britain, France and Europe are as long as possible for America and as much as possible.

“Some of my respected European colleagues should probably hold back from tweeting angrily,” told me a disappointed diplomat of a high-profile nation.

We were discussing European resentment in the treatment of the President of Ukraine By US President and Vice President at the Oval Office on Friday.

“The actual leadership is not about closing the online steam. It is about finding the right words to move forward creatively, although the situation complicates the situation.

“Do we need to continue American support in Ukraine and Europe? Do we have more common with the US with China? They are fundamental questions that we need to keep in mind.”

Another fundamental question for Europe, of course, how much cash is required and how fast to reliably promote defense.

On Ukraine, Europe can certainly easily change the current American support, if it can apply its mind.

Germany is the largest donor of military aid for Ukraine after the United States. If other European powers led it, it says, Ukraine defense will be covered for the future.

Berlin and other northern European countries express displeasure against France, for example, what they say, talk big about defending Ukraine – and is strong in leadership and strategy – but really relatively less donated.

For comprehensive defense spending, Ursula von Dera Leyen, head of the European Union Commission, announced on Tuesday that “Europe is in the era of re-act”.

He suggested that the European Union may raise a total of 800BN Euros for defense expenses alone:

1. Use your joint budget more creatively
2. Providing 150BN euros in loans to benefit the defense of the European Union as a whole-so, for example, in air and missile defense, anti-drain system and military mobility
3. Suspening the fiscal rules of the European Union allows individual European Union countries to spend more on defense

The European Union leaders will debate their proposals and others at their summit on Thursday – including whether the frozen Russian property in Europe can be used in funding for Ukraine.

But potential and very public European division large. Many fuels by domestic politics of member states.

Close to the administration of Hungary, Russia and Donald Trump, one is spoken in the wheel of every European Union debate to help Ukraine. Brussels fear that Slovakia is going in the same way.

Countries near Russia’s borders do not need to convince voters why defense spending should be more. Tiny, exposed Baltic nation Estonia and Lithuania already spend more than 3% of GDP on defense. They want to increase it to 5% in the near future.

Meanwhile, large European economies Italy and Spain, geographically far ahead of Russia, fail to spend the minimum requirement of NATO of 2% GDP of GDP.

In Germany, France and the UK, according to a study by the London -based Folklata Research Group, most voters want to maintain defense spending, prefer their government to focus on other voters priorities.

But NATO general secretary Mark Rute is warning Europeans to wake up and smell coffee brooing in Washington and Moscow.

They say that European countries need to spend more than 3% of GDP, which is effectively to effectively explain its deep dependence on the US.

If Donald Trump completely exits Europe, never takes care of Ukraine, it would mean that spending 4-6% of GDP, according to defense experts: A political, social and economic earthquake Europe leaders hope that they do not have to face them.
