Ukraine: We must not give up

Appeal to the Heads of State and Government of the member countries of the Ramstein coalition

The Lithuania Tribune, 28 February 2024, Visegrad / Insight, 28 February 2024, U4U, 29 February 2024

Some European countries continue to offer only extremely modest bilateral military aid to Ukraine. Italy, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Luxembourg and France are among the most parsimonious members of the Ramstein coalition. They are thus taking advantage of the generosity of their allies, betraying their own past leadership and undermining the cohesion of Europe.

Bilateral military aid from Denmark (€3.5 billion), Norway (€3.6 billion) and the Netherlands (€2.5 billion) exceeds that from France, Italy and Spain. The United States contributes €44 billion, Germany €17 billion and the United Kingdom more than €6 billion.

The wartime economy called for by the French president in June 2022 has not materialised. While the production of Caesar self-propelled guns has been doubled, shell output is still no more than 3,000 rounds a month. This is despite the fact that shells are considered a priority, and that Ukraine requires hundreds of thousands of them monthly.

The volume of military aid from all the countries in the Ramstein coalition has reached its lowest level for many months, at €1 billion a month. Meanwhile, Russia has increased its defence budget by 68%, taking it to €106 billion. This compares with Ukraine’s budget of €43 billion.

Against this background, the debate between those who want to provide aid “for as long as it takes” and those who argue that Ukraine must receive whatever it needs “to win as quickly as possible” seems obsolete. We need to do both: provide arms in quantity and quality on the one hand, and over time on the other. And the countries that have so far been the most parsimonious should be the first to give a strong signal of long-term support in terms of quality and quantity.

Four squadrons of Rafales for Ukraine

Dassault Aviation is ready to double its production capacity, according to its CEO Eric Trappier. If this is true, France could rapidly provide Ukraine with two squadrons of Rafales (24 aircraft) under bilateral military aid and, with the agreement of the other EU member states, two additional squadrons under the European Peace Facility (EPF). Cost: around €5 billion.

80 Italian NH90 assault helicopters

It is a safe bet that Roberto Cingolani, CEO of Leonardo, would welcome the challenge of doubling production capacity for the NH90. This would enable Italy to quickly supply around forty assault helicopters and, again with the agreement of the other EU member states, around forty more under the EPF. Cost: around €3.5 billion.

Such strong signals would undoubtedly encourage other coalition countries to supply hundreds of Patriot, ATACMS, Taurus and Storm Shadow missiles, as well as 150 F-16s in addition to the 60 already planned.

As shown by the Budapest Memorandum, security guarantees are usually not worth the paper they are written on. Today, the only real guarantee of security we can offer Ukraine is to supply it with arms in sufficient quantity and quality. Tomorrow, “immediately after winning this war”, Ukraine will be, as President Biden has said, “part of NATO”.
