NATO General Laubenthal: Europe must produce Patriot missiles under licence

German Bundeswehr General Markus Laubenthal, Chief of Staff at Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE), is calling for a massive expansion of Europe's domestic defence industry. Europe must be capable of producing systems such as Patriot missiles under licence to strategically relieve the US burden. Laubenthal also assessed the NATO summit in Ankara, which brought key decisions on new reconnaissance systems, and analysed lessons from the war in Ukraine — particularly the mass use of cheap drones against expensive high-tech defence systems.
