>3. EU is nowhere close in military integration and economic flexibility to match the threat, even with that declaration. For example I cannot imagine IG Metall agreeing to work in three shifts to boost production of shells or drones. Why not? They already did in the past for car production, for example. If liberty is on the line, and the russian threat becomes tangible to the common people, then there will be more than enough factory workers willing to work overtime, I very much think so.
