Title:
"Europe's military power is sparse"?The US media did not name enough names and shouted, "Who will take care of our security?"
Dear fans, it's me again, your exclusive consulting master!Today, I received a real and informative article, which is definitely a shocking topic. Everyone knows that Ukraine's ** Zelensky has been in the limelight recently, and he rushed to the United States to find reinforcements, but he was questioned by the American media, saying that Europe's military strength is simply a joke. Isn't it a little hard to believe?
First of all, imagine this scene: Zelensky flew to the United States, but was complained by the American media that Europe's military power was "vulnerable", what a hardcore opening!Don't say you're not scared, I almost didn't fall out of my chair.
So, the question arises, why are the American media so dissatisfied with Europe's defense capability?It turns out that the inside information that broke out in "Wall Street**" is a bit torn. Britain, Europe's largest military partner, has only 150 tanks that can be put into battle, which sounds like a big army, but in fact, in comparison, Russia's attrition in the war in Ukraine can easily kill every month. And France, hearing that they have less than 90 heavy guns, is simply a joke about the war in Ukraine.
What's even more worrying is that at the military base in Dorset, England, soldiers of the Royal Tank Regiment are participating in Xi. Don't look at them fully equipped, in fact, the US media questioned that these Xi were a bit like making "useless" preparations. Shhh
Then, let's look at U.S. support. Biden invited Zelensky to visit the White House, which once made people think that the United States would be enthusiastic and come up with big moves to support Ukraine. Republican senators, however, have disputed their support for Ukraine, citing dissatisfaction with US policy on the Mexican border. The new round of conflict between Palestine and Israel has also shifted the political focus of the United States to Gaza, and the White House may not be able to increase the equipment for Ukraine without an additional budget in the US Congress. At this time, "Wall Street**" took the opportunity to scold Europe: "I am afraid that it will be difficult for the EU to fulfill its commitments!"What?While promising billions of dollars in aid to Kyiv, on the other hand, citing economic difficulties and insufficient production capacity, it is simply a double standard.
Then again, are European countries really so unreliable in terms of military affairs?NATO has pledged to increase its defense budget to 2 percent of GDP within 10 years, but only 11 member states have actually done so. In this context, European countries also want to withdraw from the United States, no longer listen to the United States, and look for a more autonomous and coordinated foreign and security policy. Of course, that doesn't mean they don't care about their own safety. On the contrary, European countries have reservations about US military action, feeling that the United States is too confrontational and provocative, and it is better to seek an equal and mutually beneficial partnership.
The fact that the United States is militarily overwhelming does not mean that they can effectively maintain security in Europe. During the Cold War, the United States and European countries formed strong military alliances, but with the end of the Cold War, the strategic direction of the United States shifted, and the focus on Europe decreased. At present, the United States is exerting its military might in various regions and exerting decisive influence, which is indeed a bit difficult. Therefore, it is not impossible for European countries to seek their own path.
In short, the questioning of the US media this time has triggered everyone's deep thinking about Europe's military strength. Are European countries really "asleep"?Or are they just looking for a better way out?What do you think, remember to discuss with me in the comment area!It's definitely a topic worth digging into, so be sure to stay tuned to my account and don't miss out on any great content!
