Just an idea
Dear Monocole Radio,
Really listen you gladly and always awaiting for a good news your provide us.
Lately we have been listening a lot about ongoing Ukraine war, a fresh conflict in Israel, and Africa as well.
I wanted to ask you if you could possibly touch a bit on a subject of a lack of weapons in Europe in general, as we all know very well how Ukraine war has been draining Europe supplies, how what they monthly use Germany needs a few years to produce the same. How is Europe tackling the issues of possible lack of weapons in case of a major war we all are hoping not will occur in this modern time we all live in. Maybe you can host some of experts on this issue.
Sincerely, Snjezana
