Ijabs

Ijabs is a Latvian politician and member of the European Parliament who has voiced concerns regarding the European Commission's recent 'ReArm Europe' plan. He argues that while the initiative to mobilize approximately 800 billion euros for defense is a positive step, the actual available funds are inadequate. He emphasizes that the 150 billion euros earmarked for centralized borrowing is insufficient given the current geopolitical threats, particularly in light of the challenges posed by the COVID-19 crisis and the conflict involving Russia.
