Why are we writing about this?
The Munich Security Conference has been organized since 1963. It is a leading forum for discussion of current international security issues among heads of state and government, foreign and defense ministers, members of parliament, and media and scientific representatives. One of the most important topics of this year's meeting is the situation in Ukraine.
What did an American politician say about arms to Ukraine?
According to the senator, the United States “is not producing enough weapons (simultaneously) to support wars in Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.” “Wars are not won by domestic production numbers — they are won by weapons, and the West is not producing enough weapons,” Vance asserted.
— Will we be able to send as many arms as we have been sending for the past 18 months? We can't. No matter how many checks the US Congress writes, we are limited, he said.
How will the war in Ukraine end?
Vance, Politico wrote, believes ending the war will require “significant territorial concessions from Ukraine, as this is the only way out of the conflict.”
The senator-turned-Trump supporter said he was “probably the best president in a generation at deterring Russia.” – Donald Trump's four years as president is the only time in the past 20 years that Russia has not invaded a foreign country, he noted.
In a speech at the Munich Security Conference, Vance argued that Europeans had misunderstood the former US president's recent comments about “encouraging Russia to do whatever” with NATO countries that do not meet defense spending guidelines. – Trump doesn't want to abandon Europe. It sends a wake-up call that she needs to take a more active role in terms of her own security, the website Unheard quoted the Republican senator as saying.
Vance, from Ohio, won a Senate race in 2022. He is the author of the book based on the movie “Elegy for Pitax”.
