re: Russia Unveils New Main Battle Tank, Among Other Things

Nato for too long has relied on the US to carry the burden and act as more as a backup unit. Americans talk about other countries not be able to defend themselves but overlook Europe. The military expenditures by European countries is not enough. We're talking about a region where the US entertained putting up a missile defense system on a 18 trillion dollar gdp. Let them pay for one. Any successful defense of Europe will have to involve the US to a great extent.
