The task is based on a bilateral defence pact signed by Britain and Germany last year, which aims to prepare Europe for defence against possible escalation of the war in Ukraine. Since the signing of the agreement, the situation has changed and Europe must now respond to safety threats itself.
Donald Trump, president of the United States, expressed his anticipation that Europe would take work for its security, which caused confusion on the continent and the search for ways to strengthen the national defence industry. In this context, the defence ministers of large Britain and Germany announced a fresh long-range weapon task to be able to hit targets more than 2,000 kilometres away.
The task is based on a partnership between Britain and Germany, which aims to strengthen Europe's defence and increase the safety of the continent. Ministers announced that the task would be implemented under the bilateral defence pact that was signed last year.
German media reports that the task may include maneuvering or ballistic missiles to be able to hit targets more than 2,000 kilometres away. specified weapons could be diverted from Germany to Russian targets, and at 2,000 kilometres scope besides to Moscow.
The German defence minister, Boris Pistorius, said that Germany must be prepared to defend both legally, militarily and socially. It was clear to us: if you want to live safely tomorrow, you gotta take the essential measures present – said the minister.
The value of the task has not yet been announced, but the expert in the field of defence and security, Wojciech Szacki, estimates that the task may cost about EUR 5-10 billion. The task is to be implemented over the next 5-10 years, with the aim of strengthening the defence of Europe and expanding the safety of the continent.
Cooperation between the UK and Germany in the field of defence and safety is very crucial for Europe, which must respond to safety threats on its own. The long-range weapons task is another step towards strengthening Europe's defence and expanding the safety of the continent.
The task figures are as follows:
* Range: over 2,000 kilometres
* Duration: 5-10 years
* Cost: about EUR 5-10 billion
* Objective: to strengthen Europe's defence and increase the safety of the continent
