NATO's Admiral Vandier urged Europe to reform its defense strategies by cutting bureaucracy, increasing spending, and embracing innovation in space, IT, and logistics. He stressed adopting riskier, faster approaches like the U.S., raising budgets to 3% of GDP, and addressing challenges from Russia.

Standing ovation yesterday for 🇨🇦 Canadian Chief of the defence staff, once commander of #NATO Mission Iraq (2019-2020), as she made the case for women in combat units and paid tribute to them after 39 years of career as a combat arms officer herself. At #Halifax Security Forum #HFXForum
Canada’s top military commander, Gen. Jennie Carigna:
"After 39 years of career as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations across the world, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify the contribution of women to their defense and to their service, in their country."
