The depth of that potentially encompassing idea made possible the most rapid extension of geographical breadth in world history. Ukraine’s spectacular “Spiderweb operation” just days ago forcefully struck military targets deep into Russia even as far as 4,000 kilometers beyond its national border. If we are to believe one of NATO’s most vocal leaders, French President Emmanuel Macron, the trend towards breadth is still in the cards. We shouldn’t be surprised to see Macron aim for breadth and depth at the same time, even concerning NATO, an institution he does not control. NATO expansion, whether consciously or not, has literally thrown Europe into a state of permanent chaos; political, military and economic chaos.
