NATO chief Mark Rutte told Euronews the European preference debate is a "luxury" since neither Europe nor the US can meet the growing demand for defence products and the industry should ramp up its capacity.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte claims that the discussion about favoring the European defense industry is a 'luxury', because the fundamental problem is insufficient weapons production in both Europe and the US.
According to Mark Rutte, Europe produces too few weapons, so new military industrial capacities and a significant boost to defense production are needed.
