"European Defense: Germany's Preparedness for Confrontation with Russia"
TL;DR
Germany's Defense Minister Boris Pistorius is warning the public to prepare for decades of confrontation with Russia and advocating for a rapid buildup of the German military amid concerns that President Vladimir Putin may not stop at the border with Ukraine. Chancellor Olaf Scholz, however, is cautious about pushing the Kremlin too far, reflecting the ambivalence of the German public towards the perceived threat from Russia. As Scholz prepares to meet President Biden, German officials anticipate little progress in Ukraine and fear the consequences if Putin prevails.
