Germany is Europes biggest country by population and GDP (not counting Russia and Turkey for population). It makes perfect sense for them to be the biggest spenders on defence as well.
Ironically the ultra right wing AfD party is actually against the rearmament, but that is mostly because they are Putin’s puppets. (They claim fiscal responsibility concerns but this is a laughably transparent excuse)
They’re against it in the same way any right wing populous group is. They pretend to be against big government and want to “end wars”. And then do the exact opposite when in power.
Don’t believe fascist when they say they want to reduce spending on war. They just lie until they take enough power.
It started like that last time too
AfD be like: It’s free real estate!
Oh good. Germany is rearming.
Why did we let them be a country again?
It’s Russia that shouldn’t be a country.
What should it be then?
Totally agreed. If only the US didn’t sponsor Yeltsin and coup’ed the USSR by empowering fascists
Do you want another war in Europe? Because that’s how you get another war in Europe.
Origninal comment is deleted, so i can’t see what you’re responding to, but I would like to point out that we have had an ongoing war in Europe for the last three years…

I was picturing something along the lines of WWII’s European theater, but fair enough.
