Introduction \u2013 May 30, 2025<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Germany has embarked on an ambitious expansion and modernization program as it prepares to restore itself as a military power.<\/p>\n

In a speech earlier this month, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz pledged to \u201cprovide all necessary financial resources\u201d to turn Germany\u2019s military into Europe\u2019s strongest.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Germany\u2019s Chief of Defense, General Carsten Breuer, has called for the complete rearmament of the Bundeswehr with modern weapons and equipment by 2029.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Various \u2018experts\u2019 claim that this is being done because once Russia has consolidated its hold over recently recaptured territory in eastern Ukraine it will look beyond, into Western Ukraine and possibly even further West.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>That\u2019s why Merz wants Germany to prepare for possible war with Russia<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Of course Macron and Starmer were talking a few weeks earlier about putting troops on the ground in Ukraine<\/a>. But that didn\u2019t materialise after Moscow made it clear that NATO troops in Ukraine would be totally unacceptable<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So now the timetable has shifted to the next three to five years. While the possible location for the conflict has shifted further west, from Ukraine to Poland and possibly even Germany.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also no coincidence that Poland has embarked on a massive military build-up<\/a>. Like Germany it\u2019s also preparing for a wider conflict with Russia.<\/p>\n

In essence, we believe that Europe\u2019s leaders have been told to prepare for war with Russia. Starmer and Macron have backed away from their intial defiant stance toward Russia because neither has any credibility left.<\/p>\n
