A recent announcement by US President Joe Biden at the NATO Summit in Madrid that flooded Europe with US forces: “We have decided to send more US troops, bringing them to 100,000. We will continue to respond to the threat directly in consultation with our allies. We will set up a permanent 5th US Army Corps headquarters in Poland and strengthen our ability to respond throughout the East. We will develop a Force Brigade of 3000 men, where the rotation process will apply. We will also strengthen “rotating developments in the Baltic States”. We will send two additional squadrons of F-35 fighter jets to the United Kingdom and deploy additional air defense capabilities in Germany and Italy”.
At a similar wavelength, NATO Secretary-General Stotelberg, who made extensive reports of an increase in the size of the NATO Rapid Reaction Force (NRF) from 40,000 to 300,000, announced that this would happen by next year. This process will include the preliminary development of heavy equipment and weapons on the border with Russia and the deployment of NATO forces to protect specific parts of the eastern side that will remain in their countries.
The conclusions and the new geopolitical developments
1. From the above, we note that the US will vertically upgrade its military presence through NATO in Europe in the coming period.
2. In essence, the war in Ukraine, and Vladimir Putin himself, is the one who resurrected NATO, which is now rapidly upgrading.
3. Europe has essentially entered a new era of Cold War with Russia, with the warm appearance so far of the war in Ukraine, without ruling out its further expansion with unpredictable consequences.
4. The United States, for its part, seems willing to abandon the Draghi-Scholz and Macron moves on Ukraine and relations with Russia, barring any compromise between the EU and Russia for years to come.
5. A supporter of the above and an ardent supporter of the United States is, as always, the UK, which, free from the mantle of the EU, pursues its own autonomous policy in consultation with the United States. The UK has always wanted the EU as a single market and not a federal political or military entity.
6. Europe should also expect the arrival of new US nuclear weapons and supersonic missiles on European soil, as well as the sale of new US weapons systems to European countries.
7. The EU is now becoming a poor relative on the European continent itself, with the US and Britain taking the reins of future developments.
8. In essence, we would say that the further military upgrade and presence of NATO in the European Continent, is the “tombstone of the Euromilitary”.
9. The Trojan horse of Europe, called Great Britain, aptly and correctly advised Turkish President Erdogan to accept the entry of Finland-Sweden into NATO, thus winning the commitment of the 2 Scandinavian countries to provide assistance to Turkey. PESCO and the processes of the new EU security architecture.
But what EU security architecture are we talking about when Germany-France crawl through NATO behind the US-UK decisions?
