Germany voted to increase investment in its troops

A rocket carrier sends a cloud to the air from brown dust when it hurried on a farm to the shooting line. A few moments later, a soldier’s retreat comes from five to ‘field!’, before a rocket enters the sky.

The explosions and earthquakes of such military exercises continue to be as difficult as residents of the area in the small town near Muster.

But life is set here to get even higher.

The German army, Bandesver, recently explained all of them to increase investment after parliament voted to pay strict loans to strict loans.

A key general told the BBC that urgent money should be needed because he believes Russia’s aggression will not stop in Ukraine.

“We are being threatened by Russia. We are being threatened by Putin. We must do anything necessary to protect it,” Brewar said. It warns that NATO must be prepared for a possible attack in less than four years.

“It’s not about how much time I need, much more than how much Putin gives us how to be ready,” he said. “The sooner we prepare ourselves.

The Pivot

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has changed deep thinking in Germany.

For decades, people have been excited here to reject the rejection of forces, who are strongly aware of the role of Germany as a rapist in Europe.

“We have launched two world wars. Although 80 years have passed since the end of World War II, the idea that the Germans needed to remain in conflict are still very in many DNA,” Ziner said at the German Marshall Fund in Berlin.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has slowly begun to change attitudes towards war in Germany

Some will remain the knowledge of anything that may now be seen as militarism and the armed forces are negligently neglectful.

“There are voices that warns: ‘Is we really on the right path? Is it true to understand our threats?'”

When it comes to Russia, Germany had a specific path.

While countries such as Poland and the Baltic countries warned to get closer to Moscow – and increased their defense spending – Berlin under former President Angela Merkel believed in business.

Germany imagined that democratization would lead to Osmouz. But Russia took the cash and occupied Ukraine anyway.

In February 2022, Olaf Schulz, an amazing adviser to the priority, announced Zitanland.

It was that 100 billion euros ($108 billion) paid £83 billion to increase the country’s military and keep the “war like Putin” under surveillance. But General Brewar says that wasn’t enough.

“We filled a little hole,” he said. “But it’s really bad.

In contrast, he refers to heavy costs in Russia for weapons and equipment, shares and the Ukraine’s front line.

It also highlights the mixed war between Russia: from cyber attacks to destruction, as well as unidentified drones on German military bases.

Increasing it sees the aggressive rhetoric of Vladimir Putin and the public adopting “a really dangerous mixture.

“Unlike the Western world, Russia doesn’t think about boxing. It’s not about the times of peace and war. It’s continuity: let’s start with hybrid, then it developed, then return.

He says Germany must act quickly.

‘very little of everything.

The strong assessment of the defense chief for the current state of the forces in a recent report to parliament. Finally, he said, Bandzweher had “very few of everything.

The report, the author of the report, the Armed Forces Commissioner Eva Hogel, a deficiency of explosives to the soldiers, jurisprudential to the devastated military base. The budget estimated the renovation work at just 67 billion euros ($72 billion) £56 billion.

General Brewar says raising loans allows soldiers to borrow – theoretically, without limits – to access a “stable line” of the budget to start fixing it.

This historic move was carried out by the expected successor of Scholz, Friedrich Merz, in a rush that raised some eyebrows. He submitted the proposal to cancel the proposal to parliament after the February elections.

The new parliament, which was an anti-militant leftist, and Russia, which was sympathetic to the right on the right, may have been less abandoned.

But the “surroundings” that Germany had begun in

Germans are now suspicious of the presidents of both Russia and the United States

In a recent Yugos survey, 79 percent of Germans still see Vladimir Putin as “very” or “complete” dangerous for European peace and security.

Now 74% have said the same thing for Donald Trump.

The survey followed a speech in Munich, in which vice president of Jedd-D Vace entered Europe and its values.

“It was a clear indication that something had changed in the United States,” Ziner said.

“We don’t know where the United States is going, but we know that we can rely 100% on the protection of the United States when we talk about our own security – that trust has now gone.

stay in history

In Berlin, German traditional vigilance of everything is likely to fad quickly.

Charlotte Criffi, an eighteen-year-old, says his passive views have changed.

“For a long time, we thought the only way to compensate for the brutality we did in World War II was to make sure that it had never happened again (…) and we thought we should do without a military,” Charlotte said.

“But now we are in a situation where we must fight for our values, democracy and freedoms. We must adapt to it.

“There are many Germans who still feel strange about great investment in our military,” Stein said. But I think there is no other real option given what has happened in the past few years.

But Germany needs soldiers as well as tanks, and he likes to take his son much less.

‘Are you ready for war?’

Bandesweher has only one permanent category, a small unit has been sandwiched between a pharmacy and a shoe shop next to Friedsstols Station Berlin.

With the cup of cammoflaj in windows and slogans such as “cockles and spices” aims to attract men and women to serve, but only a handful of contacts every day.

Germany has already lost its aim of 20,000 troops, to 203,000, and has been 34 years old.

But General Brewar’s aspirations are much more.

He told us that Germany needs 100,000 additional troops to defend itself and the eastern part of NATO in a proper manner – a total of 460,000 troops, including reserves. Therefore, he insists that a return to military service is necessary.

“You don’t get these 100,000 without another or another model of money,” he said.

“We don’t have to specify what model it will bring now. For me, it’s only important to put the soldiers in.

The debate has just begun.

General Brewar clearly puts himself at the forefront of an attempt to push Germany’s rotation more and faster.

In its easy and interesting way, he likes to visit regional municipal halls and challenge the audience with a question: “Are you ready for war?”

One day a woman accused her of intimidating her. “I said, ‘It’s not me to frighten you, it’s the other man!'” He remembers the answer.

He referred to Vladimir Putin.

The general says the twin alarm is “consciousness” – of Russia’s threat and an isolated person, who removed the United States – is now loudly loud for Germany, the general says and cannot be ignored.

“Now that we understand for each of us that we have to change.
