Now, as we keep worrying about whether the United States will bomb Iran again – and how many countries and how many people could suffer because of it – we are not just waiting to see what happens next in that region.
We are actually waiting to see what happens to our own societies – because of price spikes, because of shortages of weapons we need for our defense. We can already feel these shortages.
When we look for Patriot missiles to protect our cities and communities from Russian ballistic attacks, we face the same problem again and again – the missiles are going to the Middle East. And what do we have? Empty Patriot systems and Russian ballistic missiles that, in most cases, we have nothing to shoot down with.
In our world, nothing stays local – especially wars and injustice.
From a speech at the Danish Folketing. (2/3)
