Beyond the standard references to “Russian aggression,” the resolution included a provision urging Alliance members to supply Ukraine’s armed forces with all necessary means for “defense,” including medium-range missiles.** > > **You know the well obfuscated NATO assembly in Montreal?** > > **This development has sparked speculation among Ukrainian politicians, experts, and bloggers, with some interpreting it as a potential pathway for supplying Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles.** > > Interestingly, the definition of medium-range missiles typically encompasses ranges from 500 to 5,500 kilometers. By this metric, the Tomahawk’s range fits within the category of medium-range weapons, yet the missile is seldom referred to as such in common parlance. > > This stems largely from the distinction between cruise missiles like the Tomahawk and ballistic missiles, which historically dominate discussions of medium-range weaponry. The Tomahawk’s classification and nomenclature reflect its tactical and strategic applications, rather than its technical range designation. > > Weapons like the Storm Shadow/SCALP cruise missile, the ATACMS tactical ballistic missile, or even the JASSM and Taurus are similarly categorized as medium-range systems. However, these systems vary in their operational profiles, platforms, and deployment flexibility.

Speaking at the Berlin Security Conference, Bauer emphasized that businesses in Europe and the United States must prepare for scenarios akin to wartime. He stressed that commercial decisions have strategic implications for national security. > > “Business leaders in Europe and America need to realize that the commercial decisions they make have strategic consequences for the security of their nation,” Admiral Bauer said, continuing: “Businesses need to be prepared for a wartime scenario and adjust their production and distribution lines accordingly.” > > He ominously added: “Ladies and Gentlemen, war is back on the European continent. And over the past years, more and more people in Europe realize that war can happen to them too… again.” > > According to Bauer, a large-scale general war, such as a hypothetical World War III, would demand substantial civilian involvement. This would require governments to establish systems to mobilize and manage civilian resources efficiently. > > Bauer called for a shift in mindset from predictable and controlled operations to adapting to unpredictability. He emphasized the importance of maintaining an industrial base capable of rapidly producing weapons and ammunition to continue a conflict if necessary. > > In recent weeks, the Biden-Harris government in the U.S. has approved a series of escalations by Ukraine against Russia, leading some to worry that a misstep could trigger a broader and more devastating conflict.
