Europe Can Rearm, But Weak Budgets May Not Follow
Original: Europe Can Pay for Rearmament. Its Weakest Budgets Can’t
A new analysis argues that while Europe as a whole can afford the large-scale rearmament now deemed necessary, the continent's weakest national budgets cannot carry their share of the burden. The piece highlights a widening gap between richer and poorer EU members over defence spending commitments, raising questions about how rearmament costs will be shared fairly across the bloc.
Why now: Ongoing debate over European defence spending and how its costs are distributed among EU states.
