Шольц против ядерного оружия в Германии
Scholz Rejects Nuclear Weapons for Germany
Chancellor Olaf Scholz has ruled out the deployment of nuclear weapons on German soil, despite pressure from some NATO allies.
In a speech to the Bundestag on Wednesday, Scholz said that Germany has “no need” for nuclear weapons and that their deployment would “not increase our security.” He also said that Germany remains committed to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Scholz's decision is a significant departure from the policy of previous German governments.
For decades, Germany has allowed the United States to station nuclear weapons on its territory under the NATO nuclear sharing program. However, public opinion in Germany has increasingly turned against nuclear weapons in recent years, and Scholz's decision reflects this shift.
Scholz's decision has been welcomed by many in Germany and abroad.
The German Peace Society, a leading anti-nuclear group, called Scholz's decision “a historic victory for peace and disarmament.” The United Nations Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, also welcomed the decision, saying that it “sends a strong signal in favor of nuclear disarmament.”
However, Scholz's decision has also been criticized by some.
Some NATO allies, such as the United States and the United Kingdom, have argued that nuclear weapons are necessary to deter Russia. They say that without nuclear weapons, Germany would be more vulnerable to Russian aggression.
Scholz has rejected these arguments, saying that Germany's security is best guaranteed by its membership in NATO.
He also said that Germany is committed to defending its allies, but that it does not need nuclear weapons to do so.
Scholz's decision is likely to have a significant impact on the future of nuclear weapons in Europe.
It could lead to other NATO countries reconsidering their own nuclear policies. It could also make it more difficult for the United States to maintain its nuclear arsenal in Europe.
