Recent research says almost <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2025\/09\/03\/defence-and-security-seen-as-top-priorities-for-strengthening-eus-global-role-survey-finds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">8 in 10 Europeans are concerned about the EU&#8217;s defence and security in the <\/a>next five years, but are they willing to pay for it? <\/p>\n<p>Tonight on Euronews&#8217; brand new debating show <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/my-europe-series\/the-ring\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Ring<\/a>, we will ask MEPs Martin Schirdewan from The Left and Riho Terras, a former army general from the European People&#8217;s Party what this investment in defence will mean for Europeans. Broadcasting from the European Parliament in Brussels, we will give you a glimpse of the actual debates taking place in Strasbourg and Brussels. <\/p>\n<p>Defence budgets are spiking, arms factories are reopening and the European Commission is pushing for EU countries to buy more European arms together and therefore reduce dependencies on Uncle Sam. <\/p>\n<p>Should the EU develop its own nuclear deterrent strategy? Can the EU ever be a real military power? Will future wars be won with drones, not tanks? Some of the questions we will explore tonight. <\/p>\n<p>You can watch The Ring on Euronews tonight at 20h30.
