    It’s not true. Military spending during the Cold War in Europe was substantial. It changed after 1990.

      True.

      But if we still had the standing armies, materiel and weapons manufacturers that we had during the Cold War, we and Ukraine would be much better off.

      The problem is that we gave up on those, and it takes too long to get back on that level.
