    You are misinformed.

    European countries combined do indeed spend more money on war than russia. What the article you posted claim is that adjusted to their buying power russia spend the equivalent of more billions. Even if we compare these adjusted spending europe and russia are pretty much there.

      That’s my point. You can’t just compare raw GDP when one country is essentially isolationist. PPP statistics give a more realistic comparison and according to those, Russia spends more then the EU.
