    The Global Firepower group is one of the world's leading organizations in rating and ranking military forces. It is not just some "subjective score".

    Now step up and admit you are completely wrong trying to claim that the Ukraine is the second leading military power on Europe. An absurd assertion at any level.

  4. It does show commitment to military spending, however. A commitment well justified based on recent events. A commitment that just might end up preserving their sovereignty.

    Based on this if Malta spent just a couple million more on their military then they could be the leading military power in Europe based on percent of their GDP spent on the military.

  7. If I am wrong, it is apparently not by much. Perhaps Jane’s may be a definitive source?

    Edit: I did admit to being wrong about not verifying my source.

    With 155 billion GDP that commitment means nothing in the context of your statement of having Europe's 2nd best military.
