European Commissioner for Defence and Space, Andrius Kubilius, stated this Monday at the Forum Europa in Brussels that the EU needs to develop an air defense system “with a robust anti-ballistic missile component” to address the new threats that have emerged with the Iran conflict.
During a breakfast organized in the EU capital by New Economy Forum, Kubilius warned that, in the current geostrategic landscape, the European Union “cannot face today’s challenges with yesterday’s solutions,” and therefore, “we need a change”.
