#Deterrence
Gunther Fehlinger-Jahn 2d

The author argued that Europe should build an integrated deterrence line against Russian aggression, stretching from Finland through the Baltic states and Poland to Ukraine’s northern and eastern front. They described Ukraine as being on Europe’s side and as part of its defence line, and said Finland had shown the way. https://t.co/SLNsyOY1Sw #EU #Ukraine #Deterrence #FI #PL #UA #EU

The author wrote that NATO’s nuclear deterrence was intended to preserve peace, prevent coercion and deter aggression. They said Swedish Gripen aircraft would practise conventional support for the Alliance’s nuclear mission alongside other Allies during Steadfast Noon, which they described as a routine exercise involving no live nuclear weapons. #NATO #Defence #MilitaryExcellence #SE #NATO

The author wrote that Sweden would join NATO’s annual Steadfast Noon exercise in Italy from 13 October, with JAS 39 Gripen fighter aircraft and Swedish Armed Forces personnel. They said the participation would strengthen the Alliance’s readiness and security. https://t.co/XcznJqu65v #NATO #Defence #Security #SE #IT

The author said it was time to stop describing Russia’s actions as “hybrid” and instead call them arson, sabotage or cyberattacks. At RUSI, they said exposing those who ordered and carried out the attacks was essential to deterring them, and added that Russia wanted to divide and weaken. https://t.co/5hsIcKzzeA #Russia #Cyberattacks #Deterrence #RU

The author said Russia had repeatedly sought to undermine support for Ukraine and violated Allied airspace, and that Sweden was strengthening its contribution on NATO’s eastern flank. They described support for Ukraine and strengthening NATO’s deterrence and defence as closely connected tasks. #Ukraine #NATO #Sweden #RU #UA #SE #NATO

The author wrote that the United States’ military reach was global, citing NORTHCOM, SOUTHCOM, EUCOM, AFRICOM, CENTCOM and INDOPACOM as covering key strategic regions. They said strong alliances, credible deterrence, global readiness and US leadership remained essential. https://t.co/280UN4IV0N #USA #GlobalPower #MilitaryLeadership #US

Estonia already invests over 5% of GDP in defence, and we will keep it above 5% in the years ahead. We take strengthening our deterrence and defence posture with the utmost seriousness. #Estonia #Defence #NATO #EE

🇹🇼🇺🇸🇪🇺 TAIWAN, EUROPE & THE TRANSATLANTIC COMMUNITY My position is that Taiwan’s security matters far beyond the Taiwan Strait. I support deeper coordination among the United States, European partners and NATO allies on resilience, deterrence and crisis prevention.

EUROPE NEEDS CREDIBLE NUCLEAR DETERRENCE. My proposal is clear: strengthen the American nuclear guarantee and move NATO’s nuclear-sharing posture eastward — Poland, Estonia, Romania and Bulgaria. Modernise the mission around the F-35A and B61-12. NATO’s eastern flank must never https://t.co/18lscSYnoD #NuclearDeterrence #NATO #EasternFlank #PL #EE #RO #BG

In Finland, our citizens understand why we need to strengthen our deterrence and defence. We understand the long-term threat that Russia poses to European and transatlantic security. That is why we all need to meet the 5% defence spending target. Thank you @CNN for the interview! https://t.co/hDKPdMw86W #Finland #Defence #Security #FI #RU

The U.S. is continuing its military presence in Estonia. This is an strong signal of Allied unity and important element of deterrence and defence on NATO’s eastern flank. Estonia is doing its part, investing over 5% of GDP in defence this year and strengthening our national https://t.co/mFp6x5pM1k #NATO #Estonia #Defence #US #EE

In recent days, there has been considerable speculation about the security of NATO's eastern flank. Estonia's security assessment remains unchanged. We are calm, vigilant, and prepared. Together with our NATO Allies, we have spent years strengthening deterrence and collective #NATO #EasternFlank #Security #EE #NATO

PROPOSAL FOR DEBATE: THE FRENCH PRESIDENT AS PERMANENT CHAIR OF A EUROPEAN SECURITY COUNCIL? 🇪🇺🇫🇷 One model would give the French President a permanent chair because France possesses an independent nuclear deterrent and already links its deterrence debate increasingly to European https://t.co/qp8ysgSEs7 #EuropeanSecurity #France #NuclearDeterrent #FR #EU

Europe’s failure to punish Russia despite years of sabotage, airspace violations, assassinations & attempted bombings emboldened the Kremlin & showed them their tactics work. Our leaders’ weakness invited escalation. It’s now likely too late for deterrence. We need to prepare. #Russia #Deterrence #EuropeanUnion #RU #EU

Seriously President, why list these events, all of which happened today and then conclude with: "Russia will find our resolve only growing stronger. We are reinforcing our collective deterrence and defence, together with NATO. And we are stepping up the pressure on Russia." #NATO #Russia #Deterrence #RU #NATO

NATO’s enhanced forward presence in the Baltic states and Poland changed the equation. Allied troops are here from the very first minute, and any attack on us means an attack on them too. That is real deterrence. The second major shift came at the 2023 Vilnius Summit, when NATO https://t.co/BLprVBuejZ #NATO #Deterrence #VilniusSummit #LV #EE #LT #PL

Now that Finland has joined the Forward Deterrence Initiative, would it make sense at some point to establish a French–Nordic steering group, rather than handling the dialogue on four separate bilateral tracks? #Finland #ForwardDeterrence #NordicCooperation #FI #FR
