Compared to Italy? Yeh, we're paying our way. Bitching that we can no longer afford to pay for your defence is just arrogance. Now we're simply paying for our own.
The British and French are paying for the defence of europe so you can all enjoy higher standards of living. We defended you so you could rebuild your shit economies over a period of 50/100 years.
That process is over, and now we expect you to start paying for your defence too.

So where the hell are you getting Poland out of all this?

Anyone living in the U.S would know that those kind of extremists only live in God Knows Where. Most states like California is pretty much working on a socialist model.Risottia wrote:Yup, I totally see Britain and Poland paying for their two carriers each. Oh wait...

Well to be fair Malaysia is quite near to China... I don't know if the Poles have any naval bases outside Europe I doubt it. I don't know if Britain has any in the South East of Asia but I doubt it too.
That logic means that if a ferry sinks in the English Channel then China definitely isn't a superpower if it didn't help the salvage mission.

Italy has a navy with two aircraft carriers, 3 assault ships and 15 combat ships. It could take on the Royal Navy.

Poland actually pays nearly 2% of it's GDP to the military. That's an appropriate amount. The UK pays 2.5 because we're picking up the slack of nations like Italy, who pay 1.7
The UK pays 2.5% because they're determined to maintain a strategic power projection force. Italy pays 1.7% because it has little involvement overseas and it's entire military is structured around repelling a Russian advance. There is no appropriate amount to spend on defence. Europe is more than adequately defended and, for the record, Italy contributes twice as much to that than Poland.

We need a strategic power projection force. The alternative is to allow genocides and hostile expansion elsewhere in the globe.

Say what? I don't think Italy are afraid of a Russian advance, do you mean Poland?
