Von 2026 an sollen Marschflugkörper vom Typ Tomahawk mit deutlich mehr als 2.000 Kilometern Reichweite, Flugabwehrraketen vom Typ SM-6 und neu entwickelte Überschallwaffen für einen besseren Schutz der Nato-Verbündeten in Europa sorgen.
Das gaben das Weiße Haus und die Bundesregierung am Rande des Nato-Gipfels in Washington bekannt.
Die genannten Systeme hätten eine "deutlich weitere Reichweite als gegenwärtige landgestützte Systeme in Europa", hieß es in einer gemeinsamen Erklärung. Sie sollen zunächst zeitweise in Deutschland stationiert werden, später permanent.
Der Beginn der geplanten Stationierung liegt mehr als ein Jahr nach der US-Präsidentenwahl im kommenden November. Die Entscheidung könnte also rückgängig gemacht werden, falls der Republikaner Donald Trump die US-Wahl gewinnt.
Trump hatte während seiner Amtszeit von 2017 bis 2021 eine Reduzierung der US-Militärpräsenz in Deutschland eingeleitet, die später unter dem jetzigen Präsidenten Joe Biden gestoppt wurde.

Enligt miljöministeriet innebär upptäckten av de rostiga avfallstunnorna ingen fara för allmänheten. – Tunnorna är endast till för förvaring. Skyddet är de underjordiska rummen och så länge de är intakta finns det ingen fara för anställda eller boende i området, säger Robert Habeck [miljöminister i Schleswig-Holstein] Däremot innebär rostskadorna att det är mycket svårt att hantera tunnorna. Vattenfall vill nu försöka flytta innehållet till nya behållare med en specialkran.
(Own report) – The United States is consolidating its activities to arm and train Ukrainian armed forces in a new command in Wiesbaden-Erbenheim. According to reports, the final decision on the command’s establishment is imminent. It will integrate all current structures, also including multinational structures, involved in direct military support for Ukraine. The US armed forces would thus even formally be in command and Germany would be bolstered as a hub for military activities of all NATO members in Eastern and Southeastern Europe. A strategy apparently being still being applied in Ukraine, was designed in Germany by the US Special Operations Command Europe (SOCEUR) headquartered in Stuttgart-Vaihingen – the Resistance Operating Concept (ROC), with focus on underground warfare against occupying troops, drawing on historical examples, such as NATO’s Stay Behind concepts. It integrates the civilian population into the combat and provides for special forces’ operations.
Dr Paul Craig Roberts | December 16, 2013 "The fatal war for humanity is the war with Russia and China toward which Washington is driving the US and Washington’s NATO and Asian puppet states. There are a number of factors contributing to Washington’s drive toward the final war, but the overarching one is the doctrine of American Exceptionalism. According to this self-righteous doctrine, America is the indispensable country. What this means is that the US has been chosen by history to establish the hegemony of secular “democratic capitalism” over the world. The primacy of this goal places the US government above traditional morality and above all law, both its own and international."

"Germany and Spain have both remained silent publicly on this invitation to join nuclear exercises. However, we are surprised to see that, without any real public debate on the nuclear stakes of this program, they are engaging in an industrial partnership for the FCAS. This Franco-German-Spanish project is the largest armament project of the century. First estimates are of the range of €100 billion of public funds. Already in the 2021-2024 phase (1B), these States will spend €3.5 billion (only for the FCAS); a cost shared equally among them."
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Turkey have US nuclear weapons situated on their soil, the WikiLeaks whistleblower files have revealed. "In a confidential memo from US ambassador to Germany Philip Murphy, he casually mentions the possible withdrawal of the weapons from Germany and perhaps from the Netherlands and Belgium as well"
SPIEGEL: You quit your job because of WikiLeaks. What will you do now? Schmitt: I will continue to do my part to ensure that the idea of a decentralized whistleblower platform stays afloat. I will work on that now. And that, incidentally, is in line with
