The European Union is launching a massive defense investment program aimed at restraining Russia and supporting Ukraine. With the diminishing influence of the US on security policies in the continent, Brussels is revising its strategy and allocating record funds to the defense sector.
New Defense Policy: What Will Change?
The main directions of the EU defense strategy include:
- Increase in the production of weapons within the Bloc. Focus on developing the organic defense industry.
- Reducing dependency on the US. Secondary suppliers from third countries will be scrutinized more carefully.
- Financing defense projects. Streamlining bureaucracy is planned to expedite program implementation.
- Support for Ukraine. The EU aims to enhance technical and military support.
Conclusion
The new EU defense strategy is designed to strengthen the Bloc’s position on the global stage and ensure a more stable future.
