Als ik de berichtgeving over Oekraine in het "vrije" Westen de afgelopen dagen goed gevolgd heb is het vooral een 2 + 2 = 5 landschap met slechts hier en daar een verborgen 2 + 2 = 4 ... Het vuurwerk lijkt in ieder geval niet meer te vergeven, hetzelfde verhaal in Amerika (tussen de regels door lezen). "NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg: Maybe I could start by saying that you are right that NATO Allies and EU members have depleted their stocks to provide support to Ukraine and that has been the right thing to do. Because this is also about our security. And of course we need to use our capabilities, our stocks, our ammunition, to support Ukraine. And I also have been asked, and I've told NATO Allies that if they have to choose between meeting all the NATO guidelines on stocks on the capabilities or to support Ukraine, it's more important to support Ukraine. And therefore, we have been able to provide an unprecedented level of support to Ukraine over many months. But of course, when we are depleting our stocks, there is only one long term solution to that and that is to produce more. And that's also reason why NATO Defence Ministers took decisions to increase our stockpiles of munitions and equipment when they met last fall." https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/opinions_210551.htm Zonder (Russische) grondstoffen zie ik die voorraden ook niet meer aangevuld worden ... Misschien hadden we in het westen meer mensen in uniform moeten inzetten, dan mensen met te veel haarlak en maatpakken aan het lijf ...
