Totally agree with this paper. As with pre-WW1 and pre-WW2, US is absent. But Ukraine is now a major player in securing European security into the future, and Ukraine's plight today matters.
When I finished writing this a couple of weeks ago, I didn't expect that the US would set out in its National Security Strategy how it could help Putin achieve his goals.
#Russia has made two failed attempts to get the West to accept a Russian sphere of influence in Eastern Europe by diplomatic means. Now #Putin is intent on creating a sphere of influence by force. 🇪🇺 🇺🇦

While things are bad now I think we have to prepare for the worst if we were to get a JD Vance presidency for example. In that case we would probably need to scramble to get a continent wide US independent nuclear deterrent. Sounds crazy today but remember that Vance vehemently hates EU democracies.

Czech President Pavel warns: “If Putin wins in Ukraine, we all lose.” He compared secret U.S.-Russia talks on territorial concessions to the 1938 Munich Agreement, calling them dangerously familiar. Letting Russia emerge victorious from this war, he stressed, would be a defeat for all of Europe.

The people of Ukraine want an honest government, even as American and Russian kleptocrats circle their country.

Nordic nukes make a lot of sense, because they are right next at the firing line after Trump extorts Ukraine to capitulate. Given that the "peace president" in US has now declared EU as an enemy. Self restraining in a world where only dictators are allowed to have nukes does not make any sense.

This is one reason a Nordic-Baltic deterrent could be, if not exactly cheap, then at least affordable.

Allies must act as allies.
We must respect each other's sovereignty.
Europeans do not share the same vision as the Americans on various issues. This is natural. What we cannot accept is the threat of interference in Europe’s democratic life.

So, here is your daily reminder: There will be no peace as long as Russia is not beaten to the ground. Russia must be defeated in a way it will become incapable of fighting a war.

I think one of the biggest mistakes we (the west) made was not spinning up Ukraine on tacair sooner.
After nearly 4 years of war, they would absolutely have a very capable conventional air capability if we devoted the energy early on.
My lesson learned: go big early in defense of Democracy.

He called the SBU’s brilliant Operation “Pavutyna” a step toward ensuring the aggressor state’s non-nuclear status. No target is too far.
