The Russian invasion of Ukraine has triggered seismic changes in German policy, including plans for a massive expansion in military spending.
The war has also exposed how weak a link the German military is in NATO.
But is Europe ready for Germany to abandon its post-war reticence about the use of military force, and to become Europe’s most powerful military actor?
Three days after Russia attacked Ukraine last month, Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, stood in Parliament and announced the biggest rearmament program for his country since the end of the Cold War, vowing not only to increase the defense budget beyond the NATO target that Germany had failed to hit for years but to invest 100 billion euros - two full years of military spending, to turn around years of underfunding of the German military.
