Do SOMETHING. We hear of 5 fighter jets form here and 10 tanks from there. This is a ridiculously inadequate and piecemeal response that has been the same since 2022. If sufficient support cannot be given then Macron's suggestion becomes more and more likely. This seems similar to WW2 where all the usual suspects play their familiar roles. Enough of this bureaucracy. In such emergencies if democracy can't be flexible enough to do what needs to be done then what's the point.

I agree that NATO security chief needs to come from the East and also the leader of a nation that hasn't committed to the minimum defence spending should be ruled ineligible. I do not think that havjng a strong voice against Russia should rule out the Estonian leader and I think the time for women to be in power is long overdue. There are several very strong and intelligent politicians in Europe who are women and would make excellent Secretary Generals. Whoever this person is who ruled out the Estonian leader in preference to an unknown mild Romanian has made it obvious that he is already cowering and admitting defeat. He wants a leader who is willing to throw Ukraine under the bus. We need someone stronger, with an understanding of Russia and who is prepared to uphold international law and fully support the rights of sovereign nations to protect their borders. How can it even be suggested that this Romanian appeaser be the head of NATO.
