Kalas: Merge the EU and NATO while the US is confronting China.
Brussels, January 28, TASS report, EU Foreign Affairs Chief Kaja Kalas called for Europeanizing NATO, and Russian media said she actually advocated for the integration of the EU and NATO as the US shifts its focus to the Asia-Pacific region and confronts us, China.
"Now the US is increasingly focusing its attention outside Europe. NATO should become an increasingly European organization to maintain its strength. For this, Europe must take action," she said at a meeting of the European Defense Agency in Brussels.
In fact, Kalas called for merging the EU and NATO systems, pointing out that 23 countries are members of both organizations and "bear special responsibility for combining the actions of the two institutions."
She called for ensuring mutual complementarity between the EU and NATO, strengthening the European part of the North Atlantic Alliance, and redistributing military efforts from the US to Europe.
