Rüdiger Lucassen, December 16, 2021, Ukraine and INF Treaty

AfD Kompakt, December 16, 2021.

The Russian-American conflict over the future of the Ukraine threatens the security of Europe and of Germany. The heads of government of all interested states should not repeat the failures of the Cold War. The Federal government needs to credibly commit itself to the position for an up-to-date arms control mechanism so as to break the military escalation spiral. Europe requires a new edition of the INF Treaty which both great powers have negligently renounced. To that purpose, eye-to-eye negotiations on the future status of the Ukraine are the order of the hour.
