Submission Statement: „There is good news and bad news for any European-only effort to face Russian forces in the Atlantic, Arctic, Baltic and Mediterranean.“ Steven Wills explores the challenges and potential of European navies in deterring Russian aggression amidst concerns about changing US military support.

UK, Germany and France combined spend more on defence than Russia, while Russia is actively at war. Add in the other NATO states (minus USA), and NATO definitely outspends Russia.
