The European Commission is proposing a new mechanism to collectively pool and purchase defense equipment across EU member states. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has unveiled the 'ReArm Europe' initiative, which could allocate up to €800 billion to strengthen the bloc’s military capabilities over the next four years. A key component of this plan is the European Sales Mechanism, aimed at streamlining joint arms procurement to enhance defense readiness and support Ukraine. If implemented, this would mark a significant shift in defense policy, centralizing military spending decisions at the EU level. The initiative reflects growing concerns over security threats and the need for a more coordinated European defense strategy.
