The EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Josep Borrell, called on EU members to address years of neglect and underfunding in military mobility in Europe, according to Europa Press.

Borrell believes that debates should now focus on how to compensate for decades of insufficient funding in an issue that gained prominence after the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Borrell stated that today Europeans have realized they live in a very confrontational and dangerous world. He emphasized the need to invest in military mobility, highlighting that years of neglect and lack of funding must be rectified.

The EU High Representative also emphasized the need to increase training in military mobility.

On January 30, Germany, the Netherlands, and Poland signed an agreement aimed at reducing bureaucratic hurdles hindering the rapid movement of troops and armaments to NATO's eastern flank.

Possible Russian attack on NATO

Recent articles in Western media have discussed Russia's plans to attack NATO countries. Scenarios and infographics detailing these plans were disclosed. Meanwhile, officials have started urging preparations for a potential war.

The discussions began after the German tabloid Bild published a series of articles, claiming to have obtained a secret document titled Defense of the Alliance-2025.

The head of the Federal Intelligence Service of Germany, Bruno Kahl, stated that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin would not hesitate to attack NATO. If Ukraine were forced to surrender, it would not quench Russia's thirst for power.
