I can't really blame them. The Soviet Union once held East Germany as a puppet.

It seems there is no one to put Russia to stop. I see them oppressing and attacking Ukraine at every opportunity. This has led to so many countries building up their military because they knew it is possible for Russia not to stop at Ukraine's border.

Not the first time we've heard this, is it?

I am hearing that many countries in the EU are preparing for war and it doesn't surprise me at all. Russia are showing no signs of stopping or wanting a peace deal, no matter what is offered,d and I fear it will only get worse.

Germany is not gearing up towards anything.

Germany has a debt ceiling of 0.35% of GDP (one of the most frugal clauses in a debt ceiling act by any country) and now they have passed a debt brake amendment act modifying this so as to take more public debt.

A country of this fiscal health is not going to go into another war.

Just my analysis.

I'm not really sure if the information is true but I know that many countries are beefing up their security measures and they are enhancing their military capabilities in all forms. This is what Germany is also doing. Nothing special! Most of the countries are more focused on modernizing their defense system right now.

Germany will have to cut off all oil and LNG imports from Russia and ethically source all imports from other countries to ensure it's not coming in a roundabout way if they want any impact from bolstering their military.

It's kind of counter-intuitive to be financially supporting what could be your enemy while at the same time building up a military force to protect yourself from them.
