After it became known that the Austrian Eurofighers can only start with the help of an American company, the EU F-35 fighting jets are now worried about their independent operational readiness: the Air Fleet must stay on the ground without American software, according to a spokesperson for the German armor company Hensoldt. This has led to excitement and calls after a reunification of American dependence in Europe. A selection of the opinions of our readers can be found here:
Many readers agree that European dependence on the United States must be overcome. They emphasize that it is time to look for solutions within the European Union to achieve a stronger and more independent position at a global level.
Not only becoming more independent in the military sector?
Some readers think that the urge for independence does not have to stop in the army and that we should generally be more about European legs in technical and digital areas:
What effects can this dependence on safety and the operational readiness of the EU? Do you see a way to reduce this dependence? If so, how? Do you think that stronger cooperation within the EU can reduce dependence on the US? What challenges do you see in the implementation of an independent European defense strategy? Do you need an EU army?
