German Foreign Minister joins calls to withdraw US nukes from the country
2017-08-31
[RT] Germany’s top diplomat has backed the suggestion of Social Democrat (SPD) leader and Chancellor hopeful Martin Schulz, who has pledged to rid his country of US nukes.
Okay. Bye.
He won't win, so it doesn't really matter what he says.
Washington, meanwhile, is pressing ahead to modernize its nuclear stockpile.

Sigmar Gabriel's remarks came at the end of his official visit to the US Wednesday.

"Certainly, I am convinced that it is important to finally talk again about the arms control and disarmament," Gabriel told the DPA news agency, as quoted by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper.

#2  I disagree. Our military presence and 'trip wires' are needed everywhere! How can 'endless wars' continue if we do not participate ?

The Swiss model of minding one's own business, and letting the poor, ignorant bastids fight it out, how very boring.

#1  I agree with the man. We've lost enough baby sitting for the ungrateful. You'd be surprise the number of service members we've lost in training and vehicle accidents in the place. Somewhere around 1980, Western Europe passed the US in combined GDP and population. Like any welfare, its never ending. Time to follow the French model for NATO, keep some liaison personnel there, everyone else comes home. It's their problem.
