Armen Press –March 19, 2024
President of the European Council Charles Michel said in an article on Monday that Europe must strenghthen its defences in shift to a “war economy” mode in the face of the war in Ukraine.
In the article “If we want peace, we must prepare for war”, published in Euractive on the eve of the EU leaders meeting in Brussels he recalled the telephone conversation with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at 3:30 in the morning of February 24, 2022.
“Hearing Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s grave voice over the phone say “Bombs are falling on us, it’s a full invasion,” I knew at that moment the entire post-World War II security arrangement had changed forever. The EU also has to change fast with it,” he writes.
According to the European Council President, two years on from the start of the war, it is now “clear that Russia will not stop in Ukraine, just as it did not stop in Crimea ten years ago.”
“Russia continues its destabilising tactics — in Moldova, Georgia, the South Caucasus, the Western Balkans and even further afield on the African continent,” Michel writes.
He also emphasizes that Europe could “be next”.
“Russia is a serious military threat to our European continent and global security. If we do not get the EU’s response right and do not give Ukraine enough support to stop Russia, we are next,” he adds.
The European Council President suggests shifting to a ‘war economy’ mode.
“It’s time to take responsibility for our security. We can no longer count on others or be at the mercy of election cycles in the US or elsewhere,” he writes.
He calls on countries to enable investments in defense, including by considering adapting the EU lending policy, expanding the European Investment Bank’s mandate, to allow it to support the continent’s defense industry.
This is full of vacuous dribble.
There’s been no Nazi desire for peace since WW2 and they got more wind in their sails when the Soviet Union collapsed.
Since then, the Nazis have moved ever Eastwards, knowing full well their intent to collapse Russia or make war with it.
Given that sanctions and UKraine have failed and are about to fail, thus destroying their already bankrupt economies, their solution is a war economy, which really means….
… greater sheeple control, conscription or some other service to endoctrinate, rationing, and the restriction of free movement, and of course, the thicko sheeple will vote for it, and accept whatever their Nazis elites inflict on them.
Take Nazi Amerika. There’s no talk of a war time economy, because they’ve had a war time economy since the late 1970s, and even before that.
The UK Nazi regime made zero increase in defence spending during the last budget statement, which is actually a cut, given that real inflation is double the official rate, so defence spending is falling. Nazi Britain can’t even operate or deploy the miniscule forces at its disposal.
The UKs MIC system has been broken since I don’t know when they build two militarily redundant carriers they can’t afford to run, buy useless F35B, and even cut the order, given the staggering cost, and then announce some dubious plan with Japan to build a 6th gen fighter. Then we have £5.5 billion tank project where these tanks can’t fire while moving. Seriously, these sheeple should be in prison, but oh, I forgot, the courts are packed, and the prisons are rammed. A country that can’t even enforce basic laws. Don’t forget the fearsome Sea Viper at nearly £2 million a pop, and they use two to take out 1 Hootie drone, cost, a few thousand quid. But the Sea Viper is shit, so the Nazis found £408 million to up date the warhead and save 350 jobs. The UK has a war economy, and it doesn’t even work. The Nazi subsidise BAE Systems. Every BAE job gets a £50k plus subsidy, and that’s even BAE jobs in Amerika!
The other reason for a war economy, is that the GDP cake is shrinking, and the various MICs in Europe know they’re facing cuts, or stagnation gravy train, so it’s more fear, more social control.
No serious cull going on, because they need paper armies. Thicko sheeple signed up who can’t or won’t fight.
If Trump makes it, will he pull the US out of NATO? Financially, this makes sense, and it makes geopolitical sense, because it extracts the US from this expensive and tedious commentment to this planned cycle of war which achieve nothing. Take Nazi UK. We haven’t even begun to pay off WW1 debt to the US. The UK hasn’t recovered its breading stock losses from WW1. The Nazis are destroying the EU, and Israel is finished. We don’t know how many Joos have fled Israel, but it’s a lot, and they aren’t going back. Most working sheeple are not working, they are busy committing war crimes in Gaza. The Israeli economy simply doesn’t exist, and the entire free world is bteaking ties with the genocide state.
Sure, US elites are concerned, but it’s not a concern for the Palistinians, no, this is a concern for more time, and a tweak in perceptions, by playing the dumb Bibi scam, because if Netanyahu goes, the new leader will be even worse, so it’s one big farce. This won’t stop until the Palistinians have been ejected or murdered and Gaza is ready for settlers. It is now almost certain Israel will have a war with Hezbollah, and this could see most of Israel’s infrastructure destroyed.
All the good times, because thicko sheeple have the vote.
Russia can have Ukraine, and it is an SMO, not a war
Yes… it IS getting tiresome…
but here we have, in Charles Michel , yet ANOTHER Euro’Fag who wants Whitey bent-over & butt-fcked for the Greater Glory Of ZOG… 🙄
let the leaders who keep promoting war lead from the front with their sons.
Ha.. the illogic of an imbecile…
“If we want peace, we must prepare for war”… weasel words…of course they don’t need to prepare for anything because they are already neck deep in corpses… and peace merely a concept to gull the muggles…and maneuver them into the kill box..
… these are the sort of platitudes that vainglorious hunchbacked politico’s practice, whilst preening themselves in the mirror.. like the female psycho in hollyweird shitflick ‘girl interrupted’ ..rehearsing her ’emotions’ to pass as human …
the sort of gibberish Winnie the stink babbled to fill the morgues inWW2, as he drunkenly shat himself….
.again…
Carl Jones–“thicko sheeple” do not have the vote, because they do not count the votes; agents of the Scum do
The UK has been switching to a War Economy ever since it became apparent that Russia was not going to fold up and allow itself to be taken over by Western speculators. Government campaigns against meat, dairy products and drive to get off imported oil and gas.
If they build a war economy they’ll need wars to support it. They can’t say this is a peace economy, it’s a plunder economy, and they must be betting the house on this because they’ve lost everything else.
NOW IS BEST TIME FOR ARGENTINA
TO TAKE BACK THE MALVINAS !
ha ha ha ha ha ha
We have depraved degenerate Charles Michel vomiting out, “Zelenskyy’s grave voice over the phone say “Bombs are falling on us, it’s a full invasion,”” … If it were a “full invasion”, a Russian general would already be wearing Jewlensky’s skinned hide as a cape while getting a blowjob from Jewlenksy’s whore wife.
I fully agree with Tresmegistus above; any politician or bureaucrat clamoring for war should be required to be the first handed rifles and sent to the front, WITH their children no matter their ages. It’s the vanguard or immediate execution.
