The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kallas, said today (Beijing time February 2nd): "In the past hundred years, Russia has attacked at least 19 countries. These countries have never attacked Russia. We need to seek concessions from Russia in terms of limiting its military budget, army size, or nuclear weapons."
[Sarcastic] Comment: Kallas's remarks clearly show double standards and ignorance. The EU lacks a unified army, heavily relies on the US for military industry, and is running low on ammunition reserves, with deep divisions among member states. What kind of power does the EU have to limit Russia's military budget and army size? Moreover, according to Kallas's logic, how many countries has NATO attacked in the past 30 years, and have these countries ever taken military actions against NATO countries? Shouldn't NATO be restricted then?
