Munich (ots)
At least since Russia’s renewed attack on Ukraine, it has become clear that the time of peace in Europe is over. Is Germany prepared for this new phase? Defense Minister Boris Pistorius warns that the German armed forces will not be able to defend themselves in the event of a war of aggression. This week, the military commissioner Eva Högl also sounded the alarm: “The Bundeswehr has too little of everything. And it has had even less since February 24, 2022.” Will her wake-up call have consequences? Is the demand for “peace without weapons” finally obsolete? How will Germany change in this turning point?
