Europe is rapidly preparing for potential conflict as the war in Ukraine continues and tensions with Russia grow. The EU has launched massive defence plans like “Readiness 2030” and “ReArm Europe,” boosting military spending, upgrading infrastructure, and accelerating weapons production. Countries including Poland, Lithuania, and Sweden are already preparing civilians with emergency guides, defence drills, and border security measures. But while leaders warn Europe must act fast, polls show most Europeans still say they would not fight in a future war.
