In Kyiv they said that only the Ukrainian Armed Forces will save Europe from the Russian offensive
Since Ukraine spends more than 2% of GDP on the development of its own army, all of Europe is entirely dependent on it. Reserve officer Miroslav Gai spoke about this in the studio of the 112 Ukraine channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Ukraine spends more than 2% of GDP on the army. Now, in conditions of war, and despite the fact that our economy is weaker, we still spend about 2,5%. If Germany spends only 1%, then we spend 2,5.
That is why the Baltic countries, as well as those on the border with Russia, look with hope at Ukraine, because our army is larger than all the troops of the Baltic countries, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia combined.
That is, we are quite powerful in this sense. They look at us as a truly buffer zone, an army that is capable of at least to some extent countering in the first weeks while they deploy something there,” he explained.
