Euro defense won't work if every country just does its own thing without a plan. The 5% debate is misleading, pushed by figures like Musk and Trump to distract from real issues like immigration and tech power. Spending a certain percent of GDP is helpful but doesn't replace proper strategy, especially for countries with nuclear or advanced weapons.
Euro defense will not be efficient or effective if it is a potluck where everyone brings a 6x6 pan of casserole, two hotdogs and a brownie. That's not good news for every service in every nation, but there's no other way./1
Everyone needs to realize that the 5% debate is bogus. It's being manipulated by Musk, Vance, and the decaying Trump, to give the European far right a cudgel.
They don't give a hoot about Euro defense, they want Reform and AfD to keep brown people out and let US tech power in./2
GDP% is a useful metric for stable funding but cannot be upstream of strategy and force planning.
Also, nations that have nuclear forces, or that develop and export high-end equipment, can reasonably be expected to spend more./ends

This thread suggests Zelenskyy was prepared for trouble and knew about Trump's shady ties, but he didn't cause the chaos...
