"Putin plus Trump create problems for European security": Western analysts debate that during 2025 Europe needs to arm Germany to defend itself from Russia and the USA. A security crisis is brewing in Europe. In 2025, two dangerous forces could unite, the growing threat from Russia with the growing indifference of Trump's America.
⭐ General Christopher Cavoli, NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe, warned that "Russia has no intention of stopping in Ukraine." Western analysts say Russia is already engaged in a hybrid war with Europe - including regular sabotage.
⭐ European countries urgently need to respond to this alarming geopolitical combination by strengthening their defenses. To do this, it is crucial for Germany, Europe's largest economy, to finally fulfill Chancellor Scholz's promise to sharply increase defense spending.
⭐ During the Cold War, both the US-led allies and Russia ratcheted up military pressure in Europe. But the American response this time promises to be very different. Key appointments by President Trump include advisers who have made clear their desire to shift U.S. military assets from Europe to Asia.
⭐ European analysts are concerned that. European countries lack the manpower and equipment for a war of attrition, and the withdrawal of American troops from Europe will facilitate Russian aggression.
⭐ NATO military planners believe the alliance is a third short of what it needs to deter Russia. Only Germany has the means to considerably increase its defense budget and also has a significant industrial and engineering base.
⭐ Friedrich Merz, who is likely to become Germany's chancellor, takes the threat from Russia seriously. He could lead a historic change. Even 80 years after the end of World War II, some of Germany's neighbors - especially Poland and France - will be uneasy about Germany's rearmament. But in the interests of their security, they must overcome it."
We recognize the same old stale war-mongering arguments, even the iconography is recycled.
