How could the EU be a strong security player? - Conversation with Dr Gerlinde Niehus

Over-fragmentation of the European defense market is a major issue that weakens the EU’s military capabilities and efficiency. The EU countries have too many different weapon systems, national procurement processes, and military standards, making interoperability difficult and reducing cost-effectiveness. To be a stronger security player, the EU must reduce fragmentation, develop a more unified defense market and significantly increase defense investments to provide at least half of NATO’s conventional capabilities. In the new episode of the Liberal Europe Podcast, our host, Ricard Silvestre (Movimento Liberal Social), speaks with Dr. Gerlinde Niehus, an independent NATO and international security expert, about NATO's evolving role in European defense, the EU’s military ambitions, and the ongoing threat posed by Putin’s Russia.
