As a European, I consider this a good thing.
- s2g 8y agoAs a Canadian I'm fine with my country being behind too. Would like more spending to make sure soldiers don't die due to shitty equipment, but still largely fine.

I am ideologically more aligned to pacifism, the problem is that it does not work in a world of wannabe highschool bullies (USA, China, Russia, Iran, Saudi-Arabia, Qatar) vying for regional dominance. Europe is so damn powerless and underfunded that we cannot even ensure that basic human rights are respected in conflict areas. On a bully stage, the tiny kid will always be the one that's bullied. No matter how economically powerful the EU is.
