A credible European deterrent – one that could prevent, for instance, a rapid Russian incursion in the Baltics – would need a minimum of 1,400 tanks, 2,000 infantry fighting vehicles, and 700 artillery pieces. This is more combat power than currently exists in the combined French, German, Italian, and British land forces.
Europe easily has the troop strength, we have in peacetime 3-4 times Russia’s capacity at wartime. Where it’s lacking is special strategic capabilities like AWACS planes, strategic bombers and satellites.

You live in a dreamland. Don’t take Wikipedia’s numbers as accurate. None of the EU militaries can send troops into a battle in any substantial numbers. Why do you think everyone in power is freaking out, FFS! Delusional.
