La Roumanie veut acquérir au moins douze hélicoptères H225M Caracal grâce au dispositif européen SAFE
Europe is going on a huge military spending spree.
European governments face an urgent defence crunch, caught between Russian aggression and American unreliability.
But the evidence is mounting that they are starting at least to take the threat seriously.
In May the European Commission launched safe (Security Action for Europe), a €150bn fund that gives EU members low-interest loans for defence investments.
Canada will sign up to a flagship EU defence credit fund.
The EU and Canada announced on Monday that agreement had been reached on allowing Ottawa to participate in Europe's €150 billion SAFE (Security Action for Europe) defence financing instrument.
The move comes as much of the West arms against Russian aggression while the US increasingly disengages.

Talks for the UK to join the EU defence fund collapse in a blow to a bid to reset relations.
The UK had been pushing to join the EU’s Security Action for Europe (Safe) fund, a low-interest loan scheme that is part of the EU’s drive to boost defence spending by €800bn and rearm the continent.
Entrance to the scheme would have enabled the UK to secure a bigger role for its defence firms.

The UK and EU explore a ‘pay as you go’ model to break the defence talks deadlock.
Talks over British entry into the EU's €150 billion Security Action for Europe loans-for-weapons program have been deadlocked for weeks over the question of money.
Negotiators might just have found a way out.
