@bloombergpolitics: #Germany is planning a surge in #defense spending, taking on a far greater share of #Europe's defense. But as Alexander Weber explains, short-term hurdles remain. #politics #worldnews #geopolitics
Germany needs its pre WW1 borders to be a super state again

A unified Germany, Uk,and France alone could build up a formidable army, and with others joining in a new military superpower could be created in a few years, making the US quite irrelevant

A European army would rock. Finnish snipers, German armour, British special forces, French navy, Polish fighter pilots, Swedish logistics, Italian field kitchens…

Trump is literally making the US irrelevant around the world in almost every category.

This is exactly what Trump wanted in his first and now second term. Spend more GDP on your defence budgets.

Trump: “Stop being weak. Spend more on defense” Euros: “HOW DARE YOU? WE WILL SPEND MORE ON DEFENSE TO SPITE YOU!!” Trump: 🤷♂️

If they do it right and buy European defence products (and avoid US products) then this might even work out well economically.

Trump said he wanted Europe to spend more... I'm not sure he wanted this. Europe doesn't need America when it invests so much. Putin will be alarmed. Most advanced weaponry is going to change everythi

Bro here in Germany we are freezing and our elderly are begging on the street for money. It’s insane what’s going on. It’s dystopian.

Germany doesn't have a right to call itself a representative democracy so long as it keeps its second biggest party out of governance.
