Europe has experienced an unprecedented period of peace since 1945 due to various crucial factors, such as the establishment of international institutions, economic interdependence, and collective security agreements. NATO has played a crucial role in this stability by embracing the principle of collective defense, deterring potential aggressors, and fostering cooperation among its member states. However, this stability faces potential threats due to Donald Trump's efforts to undermine NATO, which raised concerns about the future of European security.
Trump's statements suggesting a reduction in the United States' commitment to NATO could undermine the alliance's unity and effectiveness, especially given his perceived closeness with Russian President Vladimir Putin. This situation is further complicated by Alexander Dugin's ultra-nationalist vision of Eurasianism, which represents a direct challenge to the established international order. Dugin aims to expand Russian influence over Europe and beyond, proposing the revival of an empire that draws on historical narratives of grandeur and seeks to reassert a form of dominance reminiscent of past empires.
The concepts of a "European Empire" and "Mongol subservience" reflect the complex historical dynamics of domination and vassalage, particularly in relation to Moscow's past. Today, there is a concern that these historical patterns could be re-enacted, with Russia seeking to extend its influence over Europe in a manner similar to historical precedents.
In summary, Europe's peace and stability since the end of World War II have been maintained through international cooperation, economic ties, and collective security measures. Any actions that weaken these foundations, such as undermining NATO or pursuing aggressive geopolitical strategies, pose a risk to European stability and security. The ambition to revive historical patterns of dominance underscores the ongoing challenges Europe faces in preserving its peace and unity.

The Me 262 is one of the great “What Ifs” of World War Two. What if Germany had been able to introduce larger numbers of this jet fighter, earlier in the war? Here, a Jumo 004 on an Me 262.
The final series production vehicle of the Lithuanian Boxer (Vilkas) order successfully passed its Live Fire Tests on 24 February 2024.
“This was an important milestone, marking the last step of the handover procedure for this vehicle and thus concludes the acceptance of the Batch 1 series production vehicles,” OCCAR (Organisation for Joint Armament Co-operation) said in statement.
In total, the OCCAR Boxer program has delivered 91 Boxer vehicles in 4 different variants to the Lithuanian customer, who is now the first nation to have a Boxer with a 30mm gun. The introduction of this global, state-of-the-art Infantry Fighting Vehicle is the result of a significant collaborative effort from all parties involved, particularly due to the supply chain challenges faced over the last 24 months, OCCAR said.
The program is delivered through the prime industrial partner, ARTEC GmbH, a joint venture between Krauss-Maffei Wegmann GmbH & Co. KG (a company of KNDS) and Rheinmetall.
