Need for closer integration at military level

‘It is in the interests of both parties that the Bundeswehr should be integrated more closely with the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland, and in the long term, the permanent transfer of German troops to Poland.“ – stated Arndt Freytag von Loringhoven.

Berlin is looking forward to rapprochement with Warsaw in connection with the end of the regulation of the Law and Justice, which accused Germany of striving to federalise the European Union and take distant associate States, including Poland, mostly sovereignty and subjectivity. The fresh centre-left coalition will most likely consider Germany the most crucial abroad partner. The point is that the condition of the German army has late been criticised.

‘Bundeswehra is naked’

When the Russian armed attack on Ukraine began, the commander of the German land troops, General Alfons Mais expressed outrage in the strong words: “In my 41st year of service in a time of peace, I did not believe that I would last the war. And the Bundeswehr, the ground troops I'm allowed to command, is about naked. The options we can offer to politicians to support the Alliance are highly limited“ – wrote the general in (24.02.2022) on LinkedIn (quote for dw.com).

The opinion of a professional, a individual who knows a German army like his own pocket, is truly alarming. During the war in Ukraine, Germans were frequently given delay, for not rapidly providing military assistance to counter Russian aggression of Ukraine, but there is besides the another side of the medal. From this message it can be concluded that the German army is in a state of decay, possibly indeed the situation is dramatic.

The Bundeswehr would not defend Germany

NATO General Ergon Ramms in an interview with tv ZDF stated that in the event of the military aggression of the Bundeswehr he would not be able to defend his country. This is to be the consequence of the simplification of the armed forces, inadequate investments, as well as the simplification of ammunition and spare parts. However, the general – which is crucial to Poland – besides maintains that the Bundeswehra could fulfil its obligations towards NATO allies, with "there being small left" (quote for dw.com).

Furia Pavlovich

So far, the words of the erstwhile German Ambassador to Poland have sparked a extremist reaction from the justice of the Constitutional Court, erstwhile PiS MP, known for her hot temper Krystyna Pawłowicz.

‘Soon, thanks to the fresh EU treaty, Germany, erstwhile again, will take over the territory of Poland... Western? Hitler's dreams after years, without the usage of force, will be fulfilled without the Poles. Most voters in Poland recently, with joy and with the words "je..ć" and "hate" gave their consent...“ She wrote on social media.

However, specified utmost emotional communicative is typical of Krystyna Pawłowicz, let us remind how she commented on page X the consequence of parliamentary elections. That's equally foreign:

‘Since erstwhile will the authoritative in Poland be German? erstwhile the sound returns, “Polish pigs”, “for Germans only”, “hands up”, “rauss”, etc. And “final solutions” of Poland’s cases. We deserve to liquidate our country. We chose to. I don't feel sorry for anyone anymore.‘.

As far as the thought of greater integration of the Polish and German armies is concerned, we must wait for the comments of military experts to gain discernment and to be convinced of what this could end.
