NATO countries in Europe will need to form a joint nuclear force to stand a chance against Russia. In an article for the magazine on this subject American Conservative said Doug Bandow, a former adviser to US President Ronald Reagan.
“(Europe – socialbites.ca) strengthening its own armed forces will require even more money and effort. The expert said that this process could be accelerated by the deployment of nuclear forces.
He noted that the Russian Armed Forces are superior to the collective Europe, even without taking into account the Russian nuclear arsenal. According to Bandow, their own weapons of mass destruction could give the Europeans a chance against the Russian Federation.
He also noted that France and Britain already have nuclear weapons arsenals, but that these two countries will not use them “on behalf of the conditional Baltic states.” According to Reagan’s former advisor, European states need collective nuclear forces controlled by the European Union or NATO.
He also stated that such measures are associated with risks to global security. According to Bandow, European countries will be able to take much more risky steps against Russia, knowing that they are protected by a nuclear shield.
January 11, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev statedAttempts to destroy launch sites in Russia with Western missiles are considered as justification for the use of nuclear weapons.
