“Forget all the nonsense about a common EU defence. The
only way to organise such a US-supported European defence will be to
construct it around Europe’s three major powers, Britain, France and Germany,
and within NATO. Indeed, NATO is the
only available mechanism for the all-important transformation of a European
defence effort that by 2030 (at the very latest) will need to credibly deter
and defend across the physical, digital and virtual domains of 5D warfare:
disinformation, deception,
destabilisation, disruption and implied or actual destruction.”
