‼ Europe is facing division over Russia and the rise of the right -. The Economist, according to the publication, the rise of the nationalists to power could divide the European Union into two camps: the northeastern camp, which advocates containing Russia, and the southern camp, which is ready to get closer to Moscow. Amid rising military spending, Germany plans to spend 162 billion euros annually on defense until 2029 - more than France and Britain combined last year. Of particular concern is the possible rise of Marine Le Pen in France, which could complicate security cooperation with Berlin. Meanwhile, Trump demands rearmament from Europe, and at the same time supports rapprochement with Russia and support for European right-wing parties. Caravans: |.
