Europe may be having a bad time because it knows that . It is an undeniable fact. But there are options in the European continent itself that They can continue to bother Russiahurting or putting it on guard, at least.
There are examples that account for it. Let’s go to, who has recognized that rearm your defense And that’s why he has announced a new factory of ammunition. The surprise is that this material will occur from now on in the abandoned factory of Krudten, in northern Jutland and They will not be the Danes responsible for production, but the Norwegians.
But how is it possible for Denmark to seem to depend on another country to defend against possible threats of a third party? According to Peter Viggo Jakobsen, associate professor at the Danish Academy of Defense, he argues that It makes all the meaning that the country now receives foreigner helpspecifically of the Norwegian company Nammo. Adding is winningunderstand.
Denmark ,, He cannot defend himself without friends. “We must stop thinking about Denmark as a national island that should be able to do everything alone. If we want to cope with a future without the United States, We need to have friends“He explains.
Peter Viggo Jakobsen highlights, among other things, as a good example of a friend you would like to have. Can provide one million soldiers in a mobilizationto put a fact on the table. His entry into NATO improves possibilities. “If we, together with the other Nordic countries, We create a large and heartless Nordic hedgehog that you do not want or click itthe Russians probably They won’t want to bother us“says the expert.
This is even more true if Germans, Poles and Belgians They also want to make him sea urchin Be even more thorny. For this reason, according to the teacher, it is clearly advantageous to integrate the Danish defense with the other Nordic countries. Therefore, he understands that it also makes sense that the Norwegians now produce ammunition for Denmark. “We are at the end of the tail for anything I can say bang“.
While there are praise to look beyond the Danish borders, Jakobsen too denies that the country has been found in a situation without ammunition. According to the teacher, his country lacks, in his words, “an absurd amount of ammunition” and Krudten’s first bullets They do not seem to be ready until the end of the summer of 2027.
“Maybe that’s why we should have made these decisions a little faster”recognize. Consider that Denmark is “Desperately late”“It needs almost everything” and “has a defense at a very low operational level.”
Peace does not depend on gunpowder and bullets
while the new US president, Donald Trump ,.
So what is the logic behind spending money on gunpowder and bullets now, if there is peace in Ukraine before the bullets give us? “It’s irrelevant, because We need to have warehouses that look like those of the Cold War. Even if the war endsammunition will be needed for a long time, “says the analyst.
The reason is, among other things, that Many western countries need to increase their reserves because almost all the content has been sent to Ukraine. “We are at a level critical. Even Americans are at a critical level, “says the associated professor.
And the actions need to be increased due to another president. Or as Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen made the Danes in her New Year’s speech: “We must not be naive. Even if Putin signs a peace treaty with Ukraine, we should not think that he will stop there. That will be satisfied. Because Putin doesn’t want peace. Wants a Europe according to the Russian terms“He concludes.
