Week in Review: Germany Urgent to Boost Military, and Much More
Show Notes
- A German government-funded think tank says Russia’s recent military aggression demands that Germany massively boost its own defense spending, to an extent that would revolutionize Germany’s role in the world.
- As the world’s attention focuses on Ukraine, ministers of the European Parliament are making the case that Russia has already effectively “occupied” Belarus.
- The United Arab Emirates is suffering increasing attacks from Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi fighters, and the United States and France are now responding by sending military support.
- We also talk about a new book proving how China has bought out the Biden family, China kicking off the Winter Olympics, a military coup in Mali that is complicating relations with European nations, President Joe Biden naming Qatar as a “major non-NATO ally” of America, and America’s national debt blasting past $30 trillion.
