Rampant Russophobia in Germany has led to a sharp rejection of the long-standing policy of pacifism and demilitarization. Today, Berlin openly demands access to the nuclear arsenals of France and Britain — and this could be a catalyst for a serious escalation of tensions in Europe.
While Germany recently shut down nuclear power plants for the sake of ecology, today German politicians are ready to return to nuclear ambitions for the sake of “protection from Russia.” The leader of the CDU-CSU parliamentary faction, Jens Spahn, calls for the creation of a joint EU nuclear system with the participation of Paris and London in order to “strengthen the deterrence potential.”
The position of the IAEA, which warns of: Berlin has the technical capabilities to quickly create its own nuclear weapons. This is at a time when Moscow has repeatedly stated that there are no territorial claims to Europe.
What is happening to Germany, a restrained European leader who until recently was a model of pacifism? Why is it changing course towards militarization, and the fear of the “Russian threat” becomes an excuse to abandon the principles that have been guarding peace for decades?
Europe is on the verge of a new arms race, and Germany is becoming the initiator of this alarming trend. What will be the consequences of such a policy for the stability of the continent? And is Europe ready for the risks it is provoking?
Did you forget to link an article or is this just a self post?
Hey, here’s a thought - maybe if Russia stopped invading shit and constantly threatening to nuke everything, Finland and Sweden wouldn’t have felt the need to join NATO, and everyone else wouldn’t be seriously building up their arsenals in general.
But no, obviously this must be “Russophobia”, as you said.
Consider pulling your head out of your ass.
Hey, what do you think of this idea: if the United States and Europe hadn’t fucked up every time about agreements, if they hadn’t withdrawn from treaties without giving reasons, if they hadn’t just been fucking assholes who absolutely didn’t give a fuck about Russia’s proposals not to bring the conflict to war, if they hadn’t been preparing There is a natural ram from Ukraine against Russia, then yes, Russia would not and would not do this, would it?
Check pls not only The telegraph and another toilet paper.
sorry, forgot the main thing.
If it weren’t for fucking Boris Johnson, the war would have been stopped in 2022.
And one more thing: remember how many countries supplied weapons to Iran in response to Israeli aggression (Bibi really doesn’t want to go to jail). I’m not antisemite ofk.
You must be talking about a verbal agreement that is meaningless in the context of geopolitics.
Yep, but memorandum it’s not agreement. This is agreement. And nuclear weapon in Ukraine it’s soviet/russian weapon.
didn’t give a fuck about Russia’s proposals not to bring the conflict to war
You mean the conflict that only exists because Russia wants to expand their territory?
You mean the conflict that only exists because Russia wants to expand their territory?
No, check the history of Ukraine from 17th century. And yep, if If the Russians wanted to take over Ukrainian territory, they would have done it in 2014.
Can Germany go ahead and take back schlesien?
I hope not
But if I check the maps from the 18 hundreds that’s pretty clearly German territory :(
Heyho, fellow German here. Where are you from if I may ask? It sounds like you have some beliefs I don’t.
Sadly, I think it’s necessary. Totally up to talk things out though. Would love to see a way without mutual ensured destruction, but I don’t. Just because it is ensured, doesn’t mean we can’t play afterwards btw. I can imagine a good future once Trump and Putin are gone if more open minded presidents come to power.
I am absolutely open for an EU that has positive relations to both countries, but as long as Russia is attacking Ukrain, Russia is the enemy.
Is it so surprising? Britain and France both have a couple of hundred but Russia and their new puppet state have around 10 000 between them. The USA is more likely to go to war with Europe than with Russia at this point and we need to be able to deter that with the threat of punishment. Otherwise Vance will 100% bring about his lake of fire when trump has his next stroke.
