The Defense Minister also touched on the major defense review that the government launched last week, promising to create a “new era” for the British Armed Forces.
He noted that these are truly serious times when global threats are growing rapidly.
According to Gili, problems are almost everywhere: from the Army and Royal Navy to the Air Force.
– Attrition, profligacy in procurement, low morale, a recruitment crisis and veterans unable to access the services they deserve were problems in the British Army listed by the Defense Secretary .
