The event should be prepared for the era when anything, even war can happen-Admiral Bauer

The head of the NATO Military Committee emphasized that in the past governments have lived in predictability and control, but it has changed since the Russian Federation began a full -scale war against Ukraine. The head of the NATO Military Committee Admiral Rob Bauer has stated that the Western countries need to prepare for the era when anything, including war, can happen at any time.

He reported this during the opening of a two -day meeting of the heads of defense agencies in Brussels, Reuters reports. Admiral stressed that in the past, governments and NATO companies lived in an era when everything was abundant, predictable, controlled and focused on efficiency. However, since the Russian Federation has started a full-scale war against Ukraine, anything can happen.

"From the moment of Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the countries of the event should set up their thinking in an era in which everything can happen at any time, an era in which we should expect an unexpected, era in which we need to focus on efficiency, so that we need to focus be fully effective. We need NATO military transformation, "Admiral said.

Bauer also promised that NATO would continue to assist Ukraine during the meeting, as "the result of this war will determine the fate of the world. " Bauer expressed confidence that the European Union would approve the proposed package of assistance for Kiev in the amount of 50 billion euros during the future emergency summit on February 1. On December 15, Hungary Prime Minister Viktor Orban vetoed 50 billion euros from the European Union for Ukraine.

According to the politician, this issue will return to the EU next year. On December 18, Czech politicians accused Orbana of blackmail and protection of the interests of the Russian Federation. According to them, the actions of the Hungarian Prime Minister against Ukraine's accession to the EU are played in favor of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

On December 20, Viktor Orban stated that when Ukraine becomes a member of the European Union, then all assistance of the continent will be directed to Kiev. The Hungarian Prime Minister noted that no country in the world that was at war has wanted to become a member of the EU. In addition, on December 21, Orban stated that EU countries can assist Ukraine, despite resistance from the Hungarian Government.
