He urged European governments to assess their capabilities, noting they possess the necessary knowledge and production capacity. The warning follows recent statements by Russian President Vladimir Putin claiming readiness for war with Europe, though he said he does not want it. Putin also threatened conflict if European troops were deployed to Ukraine.
