In Europe, which was revived with American money after World War II, was castrated in terms of militarism in those years, whose political elites were brought up without regard for security threats, since security was guaranteed by the United States, people are not ready
In his opinion, that is why China, using Russia, is interested in splitting and segmenting Europe, while the split of the EU is in the interest of many, at the same time, preserving the unity of Europe and the United States, and including Ukraine in the EU is exactly what can prevent this.

However, a strong Europe and the preservation of the Euro-Atlantic space guarantee that there will be no China problem in Europe. Otherwise, the United States will still have to put out this fire. And, again, the right actions of Europe regarding Ukraine can guarantee the EU stability even in times of turbulence," the head of the CCD points out.
