RedTiger Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 ?? :huh: Perhaps he is lamenting that they aren't air-policing themselves i.e. relying on the US to do it...? Thats my take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurofor Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) I think what we both mean is that we prefer Europeans to protect European air space, no? NATO is a relic of the Cold War and represents US influence hanging around. Europe needs to be strong by itself and increase cooperation with its nearby neighbours instead of being seen as a threat. NATO is in the way of such closer cooperation and the US has everything to gain from this. Europe needs to be independent and not biased either west or east. Maybe this is too much politics. Sorry.

X-man Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Well, it's only for some months. As read in the article, ALL NATO countries are rotating the duty, and now it's US turn (again). Honestly, I dont see this being "in the way" for closer relations in the EU... 64th Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 135.181.115.54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTiger Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I know :D but I think it was supposed to be an argument against what I said (like the list was self-explanatory) and I don't get it. Either he was trying to show you that there have been Europeans policing European air space OR he was trying point out how much US kit the Europeans are using for said policing. Both make sense as a retort based on what you posted. :noexpression: Again, just my take. No comment here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Either he was trying to show you that there have been Europeans policing European air space" Correct :) Ps; Russia will be in NATO (in future) probably that you want to learn at schools Chinese...obligatoril ;) Well yes, I know, we simply expressed discontent with the fact that it was their turn. I thought that was obvious. Russia in NATO... I just can't see that happening for quite a while. :noexpression: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
