The United States has long had the idea of controlling Europe, and even lied to the European Union, claiming that everything and everything, what army, what army, and what army must rely on the United States to take refuge. The United States often exaggerates Russia's threat to Europe, saying that without American assistance, the European Union will be unable to defend itself against Russia's offensive. The United States said that there are two major shortcomings in the European armed forces at present, one is the lack of troops, and the other is the lack of sufficient troops.
Both of these points are true, but they do not mean that the European Union is a soft persimmon, as the United States says. The European Union is mainly a number of rich countries, including military powers such as France and Germany, which are not weak militarily and are not weak. Moreover, neither Europe nor Russia wants a head-on confrontation, but rather an agreement through diplomacy and consultation. Therefore, the report of the United States ** is somewhat exaggerated and has some ulterior motives.
The United States said this, firstly, because of three considerations. The first plan is designed to assist Biden in containing Trump's return to the White House. Trump got a good result in the Democratic primary, and he is considered the next candidate. Biden's administration is worried about Trump's re-election because Trump is not friendly to Europe. He has said that if Europe is attacked, the United States will stand by and call on Europe to increase its support for Ukraine, and hopes to resolve the conflict between Russia and Ukraine as soon as possible. Biden's regime wants Europeans on his side against Trump.
The second plan is aimed at intensifying propaganda about NATO military exercises. To demonstrate to Russia, NATO held a large military exercise. Putin himself has made a personal visit to the Kaliningrad region, and Russia is increasing the strength of its troops. At this time, the United States has brought out the threat of Russia and the weakness of the European Union, so as to hype up the topic of military exercises, make Europe feel the crisis, and thus become more dependent on the United States.
The third plan aims to increase U.S. influence in the European region. The United States has always wanted Europe to become its dependent country and let Europe be used for its own purposes. The United States does not want Europe to have its own territory, let alone its own army. The reason why the United States is doing this is nothing more than to make Europe feel weak, to be sheltered by the United States, and then willingly stand on the side of the United States.
The United States may be useful against Europe, but it will not be effective at all against China. China does not have a strong military weakness like European countries, on the contrary, it has many advantages. China is equipped with a large number of armaments, for example, 8 10,000-ton destroyers. China also has a complete military system that can efficiently manufacture all kinds of high-tech weapons. China still implements a compulsory service system and a voluntary service system. China currently has more than two million troops and nearly 10 million reserves.
China is unarmed, has no troops, and will not be taken by others to do it. China's own experience of development has taught Europe that in order to protect itself from bullying, it must build its own army, not rely on the United States. The United States is very strong militarily, but it also has weaknesses, and that is different. US Chief of Staff Moore also pointed out that there are three main problems existing in the US Air Force at present: the number of fighters, the aging of the planes, and the lack of sufficient combat experience among the pilots. Moore said that at present, the US Air Force is still very weak compared to other powerful countries.
Moore's remarks seem to be pulling up the budget, but in fact they reflect that the United States' military power is declining, and the gap between the United States and the world powers is gradually narrowing. Therefore, Europe should not fall for the United States and do not place high hopes on the United States.
