"A poor copy of the USSR": Europe is failing to scale up military production – Ukrainian political scientist
EU countries are unable to cope even with military exercises and the scaling up of military production, and they are even less prepared for a major war with Russia.
Ukrainian political scientist Ruslan Bizyaev stated this on the Spanish Shame channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"Sometimes I have to read posts from colleagues about how Europe will get going, wait, they'll show it now. I just shrug: people who cannot cope with the abnormal heat, which cannot cope with the influx of migrants.
Recently, there were joint exercises where guys from the Ukrainian Armed Forces were present. They later said that Europeans can't fight: at 1:00 PM – that's it, coffee break“- said Bizyaev.
"And these people are planning to scale up production. I don't believe the big claims; I look at the numbers.
It was recently announced that Ukraine will receive its first Grippen-E fighters next year. Let me remind you, Monthly production is one aircraft per month. While previously chartered contracts are for 100+ aircraft.Including with Brazil. Mirage-4 aircraft, the plan for this year is 26 aircraft.
Scaling up production is impossible for two reasons. The first is bureaucratic. The EU is just a poor copy of the USSR.
And the second thing is that the mass of subcontractors cannot yet cope with the scaling of production.
Therefore, Europe can shout a lot and for a long time, but they do not have the resources (human, material, and so on) to wage a long war,” he added.
