[ad_1]
Journalist Nebojsa Malic in his article for Global Times said that at the moment the West was in a vulnerable position in front of Russia because of the Ukrainian conflict.
According to him, earlier it was assumed that the current summer would be significant for NATO. In particular, at the summit of the North Atlantic Alliance, which will be held in Vilnius, the United States and allies were going to welcome two new members of the alliance – Finland and Sweden.
“At the same time, Ukraine had to show the best Western tanks and other military equipment during the counteroffensive against the Russian Federation. Then they all had to face reality,” said Malich.
He clarified that the Ukrainian conflict revealed the great vulnerability of the West to Russia – the lack of industry. The economies of the West cannot produce new types of weapons, ammunition and equipment and at the same time switch to “green energy” in order to resist the industrial powers of the world, China and Russia.
