Ce soluții au UE și România pentru a grăbi înarmarea. General: „Rusia nu așteaptă după noi”

The European Parliament is set to vote on measures to accelerate defense investments amid rising security challenges. General Virgil Bălăceanu emphasizes the need for increased military equipment and ammunition to deter potential aggressors, particularly Russia. He highlights deficiencies in European defense capabilities, such as deep strike systems and strategic transport. The urgency is underscored by delays in Romania's defense programs and the looming threat from Russia, which may escalate its aggression if its objectives in Ukraine are not met. Bălăceanu argues for a proactive approach to military readiness, suggesting that Europe must enhance its deterrent capabilities, including possibly developing tactical nuclear weapons. He stresses that the time for relying solely on U.S. security guarantees is over, and Europe must take responsibility for its own defense.
