Berlin has initiated preparations for a potential deployment of up to 800,000 NATO troops, including American forces, to Ukraine, according to leaked documents cited by The New York Post. This planning comes amidst escalating nuclear threats from Russia.
A 1,000-page plan, codenamed "Operation Deutschland," outlines Germany's preparations for a potential World War III scenario. According to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, these top-secret documents detail the protection of key infrastructure and buildings for military use, along with civilian and business preparedness measures in the event of increased threats.
The documents also reveal that Berlin is readying 200,000 military vehicles across German territory, should the alliance be required to support Ukraine's war effort. Specific details of this mobilization remain classified.
In addition to military preparations, the German government has advised citizens to enhance their self-sufficiency by installing diesel generators and wind turbines, as a precaution against potential disruptions. This advice reflects growing concerns about the possibility of a wider conflict and its potential impact on essential services.
This news comes as tensions between Russia and the West continue to escalate, raising concerns about the possibility of a larger conflict. While the German government's preparations underscore the seriousness of the situation, it remains unclear how likely a large-scale NATO deployment to Ukraine actually is. Such a move would represent a significant escalation and carry substantial risks.
