According to media reports such as the European News website and the European edition of the “Political News Network”, the leaders of Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom signed a joint statement during the “Volunteer Alliance” summit held in Paris, France on the 13th local time, announcing the formation of a “purely defensive anti-ballistic missile alliance” to make up for key shortcomings in the European defense system by speeding up the construction of shared missile defense capabilities. According to the EuroNews website, the initiative will strengthen industrial, technical and military cooperation to enhance European security. The alliance's “flagship project” will focus on rapidly building anti-ballistic missile capabilities as a complement to national and European missile defense systems, rather than replacing them. The European edition of the “Political News Network” mentioned that as part of the newly established “pure defensive anti-ballistic missile alliance,” the nine countries will support the “Freya” missile defense system project led by Ukraine and developed by the Ukrainian “Flash Point” company. Earlier this year, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zakharova referred to the “voluntary coalition” mainly composed of Western countries and Ukraine as the “axis of war.” Commenting on “some Western countries' plans to further militarize Ukraine,” she said at the time that the statement signed between the members of the so-called “Voluntary Union” and Ukraine was far from a peaceful solution. The aim is not to achieve lasting peace and security, but rather to continue to advance the militarization, escalation and expansion of conflict.
