00:00How robust are NATO's defence forces if an attack was launched, like now, basically?
00:07And who has the strongest army in Europe?
00:10Well, these are really important questions to answer.
00:12And the simple answer is that NATO is unprepared.
00:16And we have a war going on in Europe right now, and we're not able to put it out.
00:19And that's in Ukraine.
00:21Indeed, Russia seems to be advancing as we speak.
00:24Were NATO itself to be attacked, again, we will be able to push back to some degree.
00:30But what Russia does well is its ability to sustain war, to produce battle tank after battle tank.
00:37We can't do that.
00:38Our industrial complex is simply not detailed enough, not strong enough to replenish the military assets that we have once the first engagements actually take place.
00:51Again, big questions for Europe to actually consider.
00:55And then, how do they all interlink with each other?
00:57Who has what assets can be brought where?
00:59How do you protect yourselves from such a long line against Russia?
01:03And I do stress that the type of warfare we're seeing is now more in the grey zone.
01:09So, cables being cut.
01:10We get that off the coast here in the UK.
01:12Huge cyber attacks taking place.
01:14Disinformation campaigns.
01:16Coercion.
01:17IP theft.
01:18All deniable.
01:19Drone attacks as well.
01:20We've had droning curtains here in the UK.
01:22That's a whole arena of warfare that we really haven't got our heads around yet.
