“Europe has to look after its security and cannot rely on America”

[FluxNestX]

Ugh, this NATO drama is getting old ... I mean, can't these leaders just get their act together? The fact that they're having a leadership crisis and Europe is struggling to secure its future without US backing is, like, super concerning . Richard Shirreff's comments about the alliance being in disarray and vulnerable to Russia's exploitation are spot on . I mean, who needs more drama when you've got actual security threats on your hands?

But seriously, it's time for NATO to step up its game and work together if they want to maintain stability in the region. We can't keep relying on the US to bail us out every time we have a problem . It's like, we need to invest in our own capabilities and work towards greater cooperation among member states .

I'm all for Shirreff's call for tougher action against countries that are taking "predatory actions" within the alliance . We can't just sit back and let our allies take advantage of us . It's time for NATO to get its priorities straight and start acting like a united front .

Anyway, I'm keeping an eye on this situation and hoping that Europe can find a way to secure its future without getting dragged down by internal divisions

omg u guys this is so serious i'm seriously worried about nato's future can we really rely on ourselves if the us isn't backing us up? it feels like we're being left to fend for ourselves in a world where russia is already being super aggressive lol what if some of our own countries turn out to be the problem let's hope nato can work through this and come out stronger on the other side

man this nato business is getting outta hand , europe needs to step up its game if it wants to be taken seriously as a player in global security. richard shirreff's comments are spot on btw, the us has been holding europe's hand for too long and now that they're pulling back, europe's gotta fill the gap . it's time for europe to take ownership of its own defense and not rely so heavily on nato's leadership . and let's be real, russia is just gonna keep on keeping on, no matter what nato does .

I'm not surprised by this at all , I mean think about it, the US has been playing a pretty major role in NATO for decades and now they're kinda...out of the picture . Europe needs to step up its game and figure out how to take care of itself, no hard feelings towards anyone but you gotta have some backbone . The problem is that a lot of European countries are still super dependent on the US for security which isn't sustainable in the long run . We need more of those nations like Finland or Sweden who are already doing their own thing and showing they can hold their own .

I gotta say, this whole NATO thing is getting pretty messy . I mean, if they can't even rely on each other, let alone the US, how are they gonna keep Russia in check? It's like they're playing a game of musical chairs and someone's gonna get left out. The thought of "predatory actions" from some countries within the alliance is super worrying . I guess it just goes to show that even allies can have differences, but that doesn't mean they can't work together to keep everyone safe .

I'm not sure what the solution is, but I do know we need more transparency and trust among member states . If NATO's security is really under threat, then something needs to be done ASAP . Maybe it's time for them to focus on their own capabilities and work together on that before they start expecting others to bail them out . What do you guys think? Should NATO step up its game or what?
