The most cost-effective way to ensure peace in Europe and the world for decades to come is to spend more money now to allow Ukraine to win against Russia.
On the tail end of his ten-year tenure as NATO Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg, offered the following pearls of wisdom during his Sept. 19, 2024 speech at a German Marshall Fund event titled “Reflections on a Challenging Decade”:
“We all want this war to end. The quickest way to end the war is to lose it. But that will not bring peace. It will bring Russian occupation…
“The paradox is that the more weapons for Ukraine we are able to deliver, the more likely it is that we can reach a peace and end to the war…
“There can be no sustained security in Europe, without a stable Ukraine. And no lasting security for Ukraine, without NATO membership.”
With the benefit of this meaningful insight, it becomes evident that to ensure genuine and lasting peace and security in Europe, NATO member countries must provide Ukraine with: (a) the weapons it needs, including with long-range capabilities and without short-sighted restrictions on their use, to enable Ukraine to effectively protect its airspace, liberate its territories and win Russia’s war against it; and (b) NATO membership to ensure that Russia does not attack Ukraine in the future.
