Habsburg warns: Putin's expansionism threatens Europe!
In the recent discussion about the Ukrainian War, Karl Habsburg, the grandson of the last Emperor of Austria, commented on the worrying situation. On Monday evening at FELLNER! He explained LIVE that attacks in Ukraine have increased massively due to a policy change in Washington. In conversations with friends locally, it is clear that concerns about security in Europe are growing, especially due to the possible change in US policy, which is perceived as worrying. About the aggressiveness he feared from Russia, Habsburg said that Vladimir Putin could seek further influence in Europe due to the resulting power vacuum, which amounts to a clear warning signal to all European states. These concerns are shared by the international community, as the Mirror reports, emphasizing that European countries and Canada must reaffirm their responsibilities and prepare for challenges.
Demand for a European security structure
Habsburg also called for a review of Europe's neutrality, which he said is sometimes used as a "fig leaf" to avoid necessary interventions. He advocates a stronger common security structure in Europe, possibly in the form of a European army, to counter growing threats. These views underscore the need for more coherent strategies to maintain peace in the region. The current uncertainty highlights the need for Europe to reassess its own security interests and no longer rely on foreign policy decisions made by other states.
Habsburg sees the European policy as a wake-up call and believes that Ukraine, which is undoubtedly a European state, should become a member of the EU. Support for Ukraine is also strongly demanded by Western nations, with Habsburg emphasizing that Europe must represent clear basic values and actively enforce them.
