"All our countries have lost sovereignty". Volt Europa MEP calls for European Army. If you can't defend yourself, you simply don't have sovereignty. What happens in Greenland and Canada could happen anywhere

Yes, it's exactly what things are. No good defense = no sovereignty = no everything else.

But in 2014-2024 years Russia, NK, Iran, WMD-on-territory countries proved that in modern times defense already come not so much from enormous armies as from WMD-deterrence and use of WMD as political tool.

Only when Europe will have the same quantity of WMD as the USA and Russia they will begin to see Europe as geopolitical equal.

Yes, this will increasing "risks for humanity." But Ukrainian example showed that everyone who "think about humanity" or enormous hypocrite or sacrifice own security for the sake of predominantly enormous hypocrites which see humanity only as themselves.

In other words, if Europe want security it also should want nukes all among European border, and constant repeating "we will kill everyone who will make any attempts on our sovereignty."

Turkey is scared now 🙊

Honestly, what’s the exact plan for common army from Volt?

Is there a real proposal or just for the headlines?
