Countries are looking at joint offensive cyber operations and surprise military drills as Moscow steps up its campaign to destabilize NATO allies.
Russia’s drones and agents are unleashing attacks across NATO countries and Europe is now doing what would have seemed outlandish just a few years ago: planning how to hit back.
Ideas range from joint offensive cyber operations against Russia, and faster and more coordinated attribution of hybrid attacks by quickly pointing the finger at Moscow, to surprise NATO-led military exercises, according to two senior European government officials and three EU diplomats.
“The Russians are constantly testing the limits — what is the response, how far can we go?” Latvian Foreign Minister Baiba Braže noted in an interview. A more “proactive response is needed,” she told POLITICO. “And it’s not talking that sends a signal — it’s doing.”
We’ve all been donating for decades already with our outrageously expensive healthcare. It’s the trade we make for European security guarantees.
In the meantime, Europeans get to go to the hospital for free and make fun of us for the situation.
And if there is a major war, they’ll expect US soldiers to defend them. Those soldiers will get their legs blown off, and they’ll come home to little support from the VA and still no national healthcare.
You seem to think healthcare and military spending are tied together and we can only choose one. You know you’re wrong so I’m gonna leave you to question yourself instead.
