Romania, Bulgaria and Greece (all NATO members) plan to create “military corridor” for NATO resources. This would open the way for NATO supplies from the Port of Athens to southern Ukraine

Romania, Bulgaria and Greece to create “military corridor” for NATO resources

Iulian Ernst – Romania Insider July 12, 2024

The defense ministers of Romania, Bulgaria and Greece on July 11 signed a letter of intent in Washington for the creation of a military mobility corridor between the three countries, according to a press release from the ministry.

The event had been announced by the Greek press, which wrote that this corridor would reduce the importance of the Bosphorus Strait and diminish Turkey’s role in NATO’s logistical processes.

The emergence of this military corridor is intended to establish common procedures that would short-circuit the current bureaucracy regarding the movement of NATO soldiers and military equipment.

“Close collaboration with Bulgaria and Greece will allow us to respond more effectively to current and future security challenges. We will continue the discussions, and we will remain open to other similar initiatives, which will lead to the consolidation of Romania’s role within the North Atlantic Alliance”, said the minister of defense, Angel Tîlvăr.

In the event of war with Russia, German Defence Ministry has revealed plans for mandatory conscription and compelling manufacturers to produce war goods

Reports reveal German MoD’s plans for potential war with Russia

Al Mayadeen – July 13, 2024

Recent reports by Der Spiegel and Bild revealed that the German Defense Ministry has laid out contingency plans for a possible military conflict with Russia.

According to the two media outlets, the plan outlines Germany’s crucial role as a transit state for NATO troops, with expectations for its population and civil services to support foreign military personnel.

Last month, for the first time since 1989, the German government officially updated its wartime guidelines. The new guidelines include measures such as mandatory conscription and compelling manufacturers to produce war goods.

In its report on Friday, Der Spiegel claimed that under the classified ‘Operational Plan Germany’ (OPLAN DEU), Germany should be able to facilitate the transfer of 800,000 NATO troops and approximately 200,000 vehicles, including tanks and other hardware, from ports in the Netherlands and Belgium to the East within three to six months.

Several key highways would be used for this purpose, thus requiring their closure to civilian traffic.

Both media outlets stated that local communities would be expected to provide passing military personnel with food, housing, resting areas, and fuel.
