In the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, EU leaders faced the harsh reality of increased military needs. Initially proposing military aid of 50 million euros, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell highlighted a grave misunderstanding of war costs. As the conflict marks its third anniversary, European leaders recognize the urgency to enhance defense budgets drastically. Amidst fears of a compromised Ukraine and a revitalized Russian threat, there is growing pressure on Europe to take greater responsibility for its security, especially with the uncertainties posed by changing U.S. relations.
Now, on the third anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion, the EU is ... being asked to add zeroes to military budgets and get serious.
Europe fears an unjust settlement will be imposed on Ukraine, while a resurgent Russia threatens the security of the continent.
