"Ehkki inimestele meeldib seda sõda nimetada droonisõjaks, ei jää ma ausalt nõusse, kuna sõja olemus on endine. Probleemid on samad isegi siis, kui nad on uue kuju võtnud."

Kui Taiwani rahvas kaotab usalduse USA või teiste neid toetavate lääneriikide suhtes, liigub Taiwan tõenäoliselt teist teed – tõenäoliselt Hiina suunas.

INTERVJUU ⟩ Jaapan pelgab Ukraina sõjaga Hiina käsualuseks muudetud Venemaad
Venemaa teeks Taiwani konflikti korral tõenäoliselt midagi Hiinale kasulikku, sest Ukraina sõda on neist teinud Pekingi käsualuse, arvab Jaapani julgeolekuekspert Masafumi Iida.

Allies need to make sure that the burden-shifting process within NATO does not at any point of time undermine credible deterrence and military readiness. We need to develop an Alliance that is both more European and stronger.

Today's war demands the ability to constantly adapt new situations, the will of society to defend its country and a continuously high defence budget.

This requires the commitment of all citizens, e.g. in the reserve.

Making sure Russia does not get to decide Ukraine’s future or Europe’s security order requires will and resources. If we want to win, we need to build defence capabilities and alliances that are ready to win.
