One would think that would go without saying since February 2022.
just a question: from whom would we buy the weapons, tanks, jets, warships, etc etc?
from our enemies?
Then why aren’t you making order so that europe actually expand production?

Poland’s Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, urged fellow EU countries on Wednesday to significantly increase defense spending in line with targets set by U.S. President Donald Trump, emphasizing that the survival of the bloc depended on it.
Poland took over the rotating six-month presidency of the 27-nation bloc on January 1, aiming to focus on bolstering security and defense, as well as maintaining steadfast support for Ukraine against Russia’s ongoing invasion.
Addressing the European Parliament on Wednesday, Tusk underlined that Europe must continue to act in unity and called for decisive action in the face of an aggressive Russia.
“This is a time when Europe cannot afford to cut back on security,” Tusk told European lawmakers in Strasbourg.
Poland’s Prime Minister stressed that Europe should take matters into its own hands without constantly looking to the U.S. for aid and guidance. “The European Union is facing an existential threat with Russia waging war in Ukraine, and we must be acutely aware of this,” Tusk said.
Earlier this month, the Polish government stated that its second EU presidency comes “at a time of uncertainty and concern” due to the consequences of Russia’s three-year-long war against Ukraine, rising geopolitical tensions, migration pressures, and declining European competitiveness.
The presidency’s slogan, “[Security, Europe!](https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7785/artykul/3466094,polands-parliament-champions-security-europe-as-its-eu-presidency-slogan)” reflects Poland’s objective to strengthen European security in all dimensions: external, internal, information, economic, energy, food, and health.
The Polish Presidency’s seven key priorities are: defense and security, protection of people and borders, resistance to foreign interference and disinformation, ensuring security and freedom of business, energy transition, competitive and resilient agriculture, and health security.

Various countries are having problems spending the already very much increased military budgets, giving more contracts to the american companies that wont result in weapons for a decade to come is only going to benefit the country that spent their speaking time at davos insulting the europeans.
The US is bluffing when it comes to ending support, of all their aid money given it tends to stay in the USA while the aid EU gives leaves the EU, doesn’t take a genius to see the motive of wanting arms budgets doubled and for them to even take over the aid the US was ‘giving’
Nomatter how long it takes, keep arms purchases within the union and let the buildup of industry take the time it takes, don’t cripple the economies forever by panic-spending like the americans want to because it benefits them and them alone.
And not by Nazi’s of Muhrica systems, but by our own tech.
*Si vis pacem, para bellum -* If you want peace, prepare for war.
I think this is what Donald Tusk tried to say during his speech at European Parliment, and let me tell you he is God damn right. European Union needs to take its own defense into its own hands. Times of overreliance are gone. We should start to invest into European, buy European, and create European.
I hope my country will make great strides towards militarization of Europe, induce protection laws against internet-propaganda, close the borders for illegal immigrants. This is tough, but we cannot be completely blind to the timeline that we live in after the pandemic. Other than outside security I hope they will also make steps towards providing inside security for Europeans. Housing prices, food prices, women’s rights, minority rights – This is all important too…
