    Why isn’t she fit? Because it implies that the increase in spending is unreasonable?

      We should have already increased military spending by then (we should have started to invest in defensive industry in 2014, now its too late)

        Wouldn’t Russia have invaded an unprepared Ukraine if the EU had increased spending in 2014?

          They probably would, just not in 2022 and more importantly, ukraine would hopefully get a lot more weapons from eu, as they would have plenty in storage

            Where do the weapons come from in 2014 if Russia would have invaded then?

              I dont think russia would have been in a position to start a war then. (but all of this is just hypothetical, so I wouldnt linger on it too much)
