A procurement plan obtained by POLITICO shows Berlin’s rearmament spree will overwhelmingly benefit European industry.
Germany’s new military procurement plan, obtained by POLITICO, shows that Berlin will steer its massive rearmament drive primarily to European industry, with only 8 percent going for American weapons.
That’s a blow for Donald Trump, who has been putting pressure on European countries to continue buying U.S. arms despite the geopolitical turmoil emanating from the White House.
The procurement plan shows Germany preparing to push through nearly €83 billion in contracts over the next year. The list, drawn up for the German parliament’s budget committee, details 154 major defense purchases between September 2025 and December 2026.
Ok, yes, all for the Germans skipping any dealings with the US here and into the future.
HOWEVER, would feel better if the AFD weren’t polling at a higher number than any other party right now.
Please fucking God can we not have a repeat of the 20th century?
Too late. We’ve got another Gilded Age of billionaires vs. all, fascism on the rise in the West, American tariffs hurting everyone, economic depression in the next few years, and all of that leading to another world war.
The Silent Generation is all but completely dead and apparently our history education has failed us.
America is all but over. This century belongs to China, and they’ve been planning on it for decades.
