Crisis summit in Paris: NATO and Ukraine advise on military aid!

Paris, Frankreich - in Paris today there is a decisive advice to the coalition of the willing, at which NATO general secretary Mark Rutte and the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj are expected. The meeting aims to discuss the military institution for Ukraine and to discuss ways into a possible ceasefire. Central topics are also the long -term support of the Ukrainian army and its ability to defend it in order to be able to counter any renewed Russian aggression after a peace conclusion. The Kleine Zeitung reports that the sending of European armed forces to support Ukraine is discussed. These armed forces should serve as reinsurance, but not in the form of combat troops.

European countries can take part in this mission in different ways, whereby there is no uniform requirement regarding the sending of soldiers. While the United States is supposed to act as a higher security guarantee, an express offer from Washington is still missing. Support for Ukraine has increased significantly in recent years, especially after the military promotion of Russia on the border in January and February 2022.

military support of the NATO countries

Meanwhile, the United Kingdom has started to provide light tank weapons (NLAW) and to send trained Ukrainian soldiers to use. Poland as well as the Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have also intensified their support. Germany, on the other hand, has only delivered helmets and medical goods, while the provision of military devices seems to be less in focus. Canada has decided not to make a fatal military support, such as the Federal Center for Political Education reported.

After February 24, 2022, the Ukrainian armed forces showed surprisingly complex military skills. There were intensive NATO debates about the possible consequences of the delivery of weapons systems and the associated escalation. The delivery of weapons with higher firepower to Ukraine has been increasingly promoted, with differences in military support between the NATO countries. The United States and the United Kingdom in particular play a central role in supporting the Ukrainian armed forces.

strategic considerations and future developments

If you look at the geographical closeness to Russia and previous defense investments, it follows that countries in the neighborhood to Russia have greater strategic reasons to support Ukraine. Some analyzes show that the willingness to support military support is severely correlated with these factors. While Germany is planning to deliver PARDER HABWEABICATIONS 2000, the PARD Flight defense tank and marten shooter tanks, the Leopard 2 tanks are also up for debate.
