https://t.co/3bhQBaqsG8 Nathalie Tocci, a British-trained intelligence operative, wrote a piece for the London Economist under the title: “Would the Europeans fight, if it came to that? Putting boots on the ground would not help Ukraine, but it might help Europe find the stomach for war.” https://t.co/7wl9ABcW7T Mrs. Tocci has been special advisor to the EU Foreign Policy Representative and is currently head of the Scientific Council of Italy’s Istituto per gli Affari Internazionali. She has a British mother, studied at Oxford and at the London School of Economics (LSE), and is a regular host on mainstream media, where she represents radical pro-NATO, pro-war, and Russophobe positions. Her Economist article was a little bit too much even for her brainwashed audience, though. Tocci complained that, according to polls, the European population is not willing to fight if it comes to a war. Italy, to her dismay, is at the bottom of the list. This must change, especially because we are already at war, she insists. “A European reassurance force would, then, do little for Ukraine. But deploying it now, before a hypothetical ceasefire, could benefit Europe, encouraging citizens to develop a mindset that would better prepare them for war. Yes, it would put European soldiers in harm’s way—any such move would infuriate the Kremlin—but the continent is already in a hybrid conflict, even if many refuse to recognize it. Were European soldiers to be stationed in Ukraine, it would bring reality closer to home.”
