Can Baltic Sentry patrols counter Russia's 'shadow fleet'? | DW
News
--- Quote ---
> Since Donald Trump returned to power, Europe is worried it can
no longer depend on the US as a reliable ally. The Baltic
countries in particular are concerned about being left on their
own - especially given the signs that Russia is already using
underhand methods to attack. Moscow is suspected of being behind
several acts of sabotage in recent months. DW's Juri Rescheto
reports from an Estonian warship in the Gulf of Finland, and
sits down with Estonian President Alar Karis. We also speak to
the director of NATO’s Strategic Communications Centre of
Excellence, Janis Sarts, in Riga.

Could you Rearm Europe without US Weapons? - Equipping a Unified
European Military (April 1 special)
--- Quote ---
> One of the great challenges European defence planners face is
that defence procurement across the bloc is highly fragmented.
There is no single Europe wide force or procurement effort to
generate the kind of scales and efficiencies the USA, Russia or
the PRC can.
>
> But what if there was?
>
> It's as close to April 1 as we're going to get this year, and
so by popular vote, today we're taking a lighthearted look at
the question of whether you could equip a pan-European Defence
Force without importing any American platforms or major systems.
>
> Is all of Europe agreeing to standardise their equipment
realistic? no.
>
> But does it illustrate some interesting points about the
capabilities and limits of Europe's Defence Industry? Let's find
out...

US wants Europeans to spend more on defense | DW News
--- Quote ---
> US Secretary of State Marco Rubio insists Washington remains
committed to NATO. Rubio's visit to the alliance's headquarters
in Brussels is aimed at reassuring members worried that the US
could pull troops out of Europe. President Trump has cast doubt
on the adminstration's willingness to come to Europe's aid.
Rubio has asked allies to boost their defense spending to at
least 5% of national output.

Ummm, how does telling the EU to spend more on defense while
simultaneously launching a trade war against them actually look
to anyone that is sane?
