An annoyance of mine is that this person is from Europe and seems to ignore that the UK[0] and France[1] are modernizing and, at least in the UK's case, expanding their stockpiles.
There seems to be a continental myopia towards the European role in adding to the problems of the world.

You can downvote me all you want, it doesn't make me wrong.
