For Chancellor Friedrich Merz, the Ukraine war could become a moment of historical size, believes the political scientist Herfried Münkler. These are the reasons.
The Ukraine War could be for Chancellor Friedrich Merz become a kind of “cabbage moment”, a moment of historical size. The renowned political scientist Herfried Münkler, author of numerous books on geostrategic change (“Macht im Breaben”, “Welt in Zurchare”), is now convinced.
Merz smithed “coalition of Willingen”
“You can already see how the Chancellor has taken on a leadership role in Europe,” said Mint dem star. “On the one hand, Merz did this for the state and alliance defense of the Bundeswehr’s ability to restore the ability of the Bundeswehr and, on the other hand, by not only politically integrating not only the striker and Macron, but also other European partners in the Ukraine question.”
Münkler assumes that it is also in the medium term through Merz ‘strategy in Europe To a “hierarchization of politics” comes: “European politics is then no longer determined by 26 countries, which must agree on this, but by a European leadership group.”
This then also answered the notorious question of the former US Foreign Minister Henry Kissinger which telephone number Europe has: that of Friedrich Merz.
