If a state decides that what’s in their power is sending 5000 helmets, then nobody will be able to force them to do more. Misinformed internet people think Article 42 is an automatic collective war switch, it is most certainly not and doubly so in the case of Greenland, lmao.

Ah sorry, I didn’t realize being trans gives you a free pass for spreading political propaganda but I know better now.

Actually I think it’s kind of patronizing to say that trans people just can’t help themselves from posting shit like that because of their circumstances.

That’s my point. You can’t just compare raw GDP when one country is essentially isolationist. PPP statistics give a more realistic comparison and according to those, Russia spends more then the EU.

Are you okay?

You have reached your daily propaganda quota, good work tovarish now have that free bottle of potato vodka.

Ukraine is fighting an existential defensive war to save their country. Their soldiers fight to defend their loved ones and families.

Russian children are getting drilled for the military from a young age. They learn marching and practice with wooden rifle mockups from kindergarten onwards. The older generations are depoliticized from decades in the Soviet Union and the younger ones are thoroughly in the fascist mind machine now. Everyone inbetween has either left the country years ago, is in prison or too afraid to speak up.

You are misinformed.

It’s not better on the Ukrainian side though.

I haven’t seen a single high ranking general or military strategist that suggests MBTs are going away. It’s just badly informed people on the internet that watched a couple of YT drone clips and think they’ve mastered the art of warfare.

Ukraine isn’t a very small army. They’re the second largest army in Europe.

You should read Article 42.

He has already replaced military leaders and top generals with cultists.

I hope this has a good outcome for Turkish democracy. Mainly for their own sakes of course, but the western world also really needs a win against autocratic regimes at this point in history.

Does it really help you to pretend that our enemies don’t actually exist? No, your fellow Americans actually do hold these beliefs. They want this and they would not hesitate to do the same to you.

They want Greenland because the Trump admin is convinced the next big intl. power struggle will be about resources in the arctic circle.

And also of course because they’re fascist imperialists and terrorizing/annexing their neighbors is the typical MO.

Fine by me.

The EU will welcome your scientists and Pharma companies with open arms.

Lol but dude, the people in our world are trying their best. The problem is that their best is done at the expense of the general population.

This has to be the way forward for European countries. Also, integrate defense doctrines with the perspective of a joint army.
