美驻德大使拿军费说事威胁从德撤军 德:别忘带走核弹

原标题：美国VS德国 德议员：美军撤走时别忘带走核弹
央视网消息：近年来，美国与另一个欧洲盟友——德国之间的关系也是越来越冷淡。德国政府此前曾多次表示，欧洲必须摆脱对美国的依赖，不能再事事顺从于美国。
当地时间9日，美国驻德国大使格雷内尔又拿德国军费“说事儿”，还威胁要将美国士兵撤出德国——对此，德国方面的回应是：走好不送，记得带走你们的核弹。
据报道，因德国总理默克尔没有满足美国方面的要求，不愿在短时间内将军费开支占比提高到德国国内生产总值的2%——因此，格雷内尔9日威胁“要将美国在德国的军事基地转移到波兰”。

据称，格雷内尔抱怨说，五万多驻德美军士兵的费用让美国纳税人承担，而德国却将其贸易盈余用于满足自己国内的需求，“这令人不快”。
面对格雷内尔这似乎带有“最后通牒”意味的威胁，德国执政联盟党派、社会民主党党团会议负责人卡斯滕·施耐德批评说，对于盟友而言，美国这样的表态“实在不合适”。
社民党总书记拉尔斯·克林贝尔更是直言：“格雷内尔这是在威逼德国，而德国不应被这样勒索。”
社民党议员托马斯·希奇勒则指出，格雷内尔指责德国对北约的财政贡献不符合实际，其言论“非常有问题”“极不妥当”。
还有一些德国议员表示，应该趁此机会推动美国将其在德国的所有军事资产都撤走——德国在野党左翼党议员迪特马尔·巴尔奇还嘲讽地说，希望美国撤兵时“别忘了把部署在德国的核弹也带走”。

The US ambassador to Germany took the military to say that it threatened to withdraw troops from Germany. De: Don't forget to take the nuclear bomb

Original title: US VS Germany Dear: When the US troops withdraw, don't forget to take the nuclear bomb

CCTV News: In recent years, the relationship between the United States and another European ally, Germany, has become increasingly cold. The German government has repeatedly said that Europe must get rid of its dependence on the United States and can no longer obey the United States.

On the 9th local time, the US ambassador to Germany, Greiner, took the German military expenses and said that he would threaten to withdraw the American soldiers from Germany. In response, the German response is: take it well, remember to take you away. Nuclear bomb.

According to reports, because German Chancellor Angela Merkel did not meet the requirements of the United States, and did not want to increase the proportion of military expenditure to 2% of Germany's GDP in a short period of time - therefore, Grenelle threatened on the 9th The US military base in Germany was transferred to Poland."

It is said that Grenell complained that the cost of more than 50,000 US soldiers stationed in Germany was borne by US taxpayers, while Germany used its trade surplus to meet its own domestic needs. "This is unpleasant."

Faced with the threat of Grenelle, which seems to have "ultimatum", Karsten Schneider, head of the German ruling coalition party and the Social Democratic Party, criticized that for the allies, the US’s statement is "not suitable". .

The Secretary of the Social Democratic Party, Lars Klinbel, even more bluntly said: "Grenell is intimidating Germany, and Germany should not be blackmailed like this."

Social Democratic Party member Thomas Hitchler pointed out that Grenell accused Germany of its financial contribution to NATO is not realistic, and its remarks are "very problematic" and "very inappropriate."

Some German lawmakers said that they should take this opportunity to push the United States to withdraw all its military assets in Germany. The German opposition left party member Dietmar Balchi also ridiculously said that he hopes that when the US withdraws troops, "don't forget." The nuclear bomb deployed in Germany was also taken away."

The whole idea us to prevent germany from having a powerful army. Because if trump gets them to get that army, the entire europe may feel threatened agsin. There are still germsn speaking territories that lies in other countries borders and a ultra right wing leader may try to get those back.

Now German are totally too broke to have any security to cover their own ass.

NATO War Drills found German Soldiers in sufficiently equipped with winter wear, tanks poorly maintained, lacks machine guns and are faked by black painted broom sticks substitutions.

Their Technology & Quality Standard are now too poor and UNFIT. Same problems are with US Military & all the other Chow Ang Mohs.

The bulk of the new military equipment delivered to the German Armed Forces last year is not ready for service, the German Defense Ministry has admitted, as the force struggles to free itself from a torrent of failures.
Out of 97 pieces of military equipment delivered to the Armed Forces in 2017, only 38 are fully operational, the German Defense Ministry acknowledged, in response to a parliamentary inquiry. The proportion of working equipment works out at about 39 percent, but the ministry hopes to boost these figures to 70 percent.
The fate of the cutting-edge Puma Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFV) and the Airbus A400M military transport aircraft is what concerns the German military the most. Produced jointly by the German Kraus Maffei-Wegmann (KMW) and Rheinmetall corporations, the 43-ton Puma is thought to be one of the world's best-protected IFVs, while still having a high power-to-weight ratio. However, the ministry's figures reveal that only 27 out of 71 IFVs delivered to the army in 2017 were actually combat-ready.

The A400M is described by Airbus as "the most advanced, proven and certified airlifter available, combining 21st century state-of-the-art technologies to fulfill the current and upcoming Armed Forces' needs." However, out of eight aircraft delivered to the German Armed Forces, only half turned out to be ready for deployment.
The troubles the German forces are experiencing are, however, not limited to these two types of military hardware. Additional reporting by the Defense Ministry suggests that only two out of seven 'Tiger' strike helicopters are ready for service; in the case of the NH90 transport copters, it’s four out of seven.
The 2017 delivery of four Eurofighter jets also ended up with only one of them being actually put into operation while three others were returned to the manufacturers to be re-fitted with new main on-board computers.
The quality of new military equipment "still needs further improvements," the Parliamentary State Secretary for the Ministry of Defense Peter Tauber said, somewhat downplaying the situation.

The shortcomings in the military industrial complex have been sharply criticized by the lawmakers. "Brand new military equipment [delivered] directly from the production lines of the defense industry [facilities] does not work. It is unacceptable that the industries are provided with materials and funded but it does not work," Matthias Hoehn, an MP from the Left Party, who was behind the inquiry, said.

Hoehn also accused the German Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen of "allowing defense industry bungling [worth] billions of dollars at the expense of the taxpayers." The minister herself called the statistics "not particularly meaningful," adding that the situation is "complex." "We know that there are certain shortcomings," she admitted.
The German military have been continuously struggling with a series of problems plaguing their equipment for quite some time. The German Army –known as Bundeswehr and one of NATO's largest militaries– is now a steady source of news about planes that can't fly, tanks that break down and vessels that are unfit for maritime operations.
In late September, it was reported that the German Navy's newest frigate, which should have been commissioned in 2014, will not launch until 2019, due to faulty systems and staggering costs. This has provoked fears that the ship might become outdated by the time it will actually enter service.

Last autumn, Germany was literally left without its entire submarine fleet as all of them were either on maintenance or in dire need of repairs. In November 2017, it also became known that more than half of the Bundeswehr's tank fleet is unfit for service. Only 95 out of 244 Leopard 2 main battle tanks were said to be combat-ready, while the remaining tanks were either disarmed or lacked critical spare parts.

In February 2018, it turned out that the he German military can't find enough money to fund a long-awaited modernization of the Puma IFVs. In August, it was also revealed that the existing vehicles are not suitable for tall soldiers.

German army used broomsticks instead of guns during training
A German battalion assigned to Nato's rapid response force used broomstick handles instead of guns on a joint exercise due to chronic equipment shortages

3:56PM GMT 18 Feb 2015





German soldiers used broomsticks painted black instead of guns during a joint Nato exercise last year due to severe equipment shortages, it has emerged.
The incident took place during exercises for Nato's rapid response force, formed in reaction to the Ukraine crisis, which is supposed to be ready to deploy anywhere it is needed at very short notice.
Soldiers in the Panzergrenadierbataillon 371 took part in the exercises last September in Norway.
The troops were missing 31 per cent of their MG3 general-purpose machine guns, 41 per cent of their P8 handguns, and more than three-quarters of their Lucie night-vision devices.
Soldiers resorted to painting broomsticks black and attaching them to Boxer armoured vehicles to simulate gun barrels.

The German Defence Ministry sought to downplay the incident, saying the Boxer vehicles in question were being used as mobile headquarters, and were never supposed to be armed.
The shortages of handguns and machine-guns have since been rectified, a spokesman said.
It emerged last month that the German military was also using ordinary Mercedes vans as stand-ins for armoured personnel carriers during training because of equipment shortages.
General Harald Kujat, a former chief of staff of the German armed forces and chairman of the Nato military committee, described the latest incident as a "huge embarrassment".
Panzergrenadierbataillon 371, a mechanised infantry battalion, has been assigned to the new Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF), which Nato agreed to form in response to the Ukraine crisis at last year's summit in Wales.
The new task force is supposed to be ready to deploy wherever a Nato member is threatened, Gen Kujat told German television.
"If that is not the case, then both for Nato, and for the Federal Republic of Germany, this is a huge embarrassment," he said.
A spokesman for the Defence Ministry confirmed that soldiers from the unit had complained about the shortages, details of which emerged in a report for Germany's ARD television.
"In the case of the Boxer armoured vehicle, it was being used as a mobile headquarters, and a weapon is not foreseen and not necessary for a mobile headquarters," the spokesman said.
"It was not a fighting vehicle. So we have no explanation why the soldiers would simulate a weapon."
The other shortages predated the unit's assignment to the new Nato spearhead force, he said.
"Under the current regulations, the German army operates with 75 per cent of materiel," he said. "That means there has to be a management system to allot the materiel where we need it."
Since the unit was assigned to the new Nato force, the shortages of machine-guns and handguns have been redressed and the unit's full consignments have been supplied, he said.
The shortage of night-vision goggles had been identified and supplies would be sent within days.
"We're thinking about the Boxer. If the soldiers want to have a weapon on those vehicles, they could be equipped with one, but it's not necessary."
The incident is the latest in a series of disclosures about equipment shortages that have caused concern among Germany's Nato allies.
The Defence Minister, Ursula von der Leyen, admitted last year that shortages were so serious Germany could not meet all of its Nato commitments.
It emerged in a parliamentary report last year that only 42 of Germany's 109 Typhoon fighters are available for immediate use because of maintenance issues.
Only 38 of its 89 Tornado bombers are operational, alongside only 280 of the army's 406 Marten tanks.
Another parliamentary report last month told how members of Germany's KSK special forces had to pull out of a Nato joint exercise because there was no operational helicopter available for them.
Ms von der Leyen this week announced an €8.5bn deal to buy 138 new helicopters.
Under a Nato agreement, members are supposed to spend at least 2 per cent of the GDP on defence, but Germany currently spends only 1.3 per cent.
