Now it’s not just a question between Russia and Ukraine. At the military level, too, NATO’s breath towards Russia is becoming stronger and more present with the deployment of military means, weapons, aid and soldiers. In fact, Europe is gradually “conquering” the field. The clearest and clearest sign of this change is coming straight from London, which wants Putin’s defeat above all else. And indeed, the words of the foreign minister, Liz Truss, they sound like a declaration of war. “The war in Ukraine is our war, it is everyone’s war, because the victory of Ukraine is a strategic imperative for all of us,” reads a significant passage in his recent speech at the Mansion House.
Help from British soldiers
London, we said, at the forefront. Up to 8,000 soldiers are deployed in numerous European nations, more than they have been since the Cold War. They practice daily, ready to attack and fight alongside the Ukrainians if the situation escalates at any moment. These exercises are intended to “show the scale and importance of the British Army’s contribution to the defense of Europe,” says Boris Johnson’s government. Such is the shift in forces that it will “prevent aggression on a scale unprecedented in Europe this century, thanks to the professionalism, training and agility of the British Army,” reports IlMessaggero. Without generating unnecessary “jealousy”, as is the case in London Washington, with Biden making it clear that he did not want to allow Russia to “seek a way out of sanctions through intimidation and blackmail,” he said a few hours ago. Aid to the Ukrainians will continue “as long as the atrocities and the Russian attack continue.” clearer than that.
Who takes over the field
Not only that, but we remember the economic numbers the US requested to help Zelenskyy: $33 billion, an unprecedented sum. This indicates that the war is probably still very far from its end. The new actor on the European stage, as we saw on Giornale.it, is also there Germany who finally broke the delay and decided to send arms to Ukraine. A real turning point for Berlin, which had previously played cat and mouse to avoid Russian gas retaliation. Specifically, the Germans would have to send at least 50 anti-aircraft tanks plus other supplies if needed during the ongoing conflict. A big step forward.
Italy She is certainly not watching: she agrees with NATO thoughts, she is very close to Biden and much more will be known after Prime Minister Draghi’s trips first to Kyiv and then to Washington for a meeting with Joe Biden. As we wrote in Giornale.it, the list of weapons that will be sent to Kyiv is still secret, but the supplies are ready to cross borders and fight the common enemy Putin.
there ChinaInstead, it seeks the excuse of NATO hegemony to wink at Russia. Beijing responded to Truss’s comments by stating that “as a product of the Cold War and as the largest military alliance in the world, the alliance should assess the situation and make the necessary adjustments.”
