Merkel: Germany is looking for an alternative to the Incirlik military base


It is difficult. And we made it clear through various channels. We will continue negotiations, but in parallel we will look at how to implement what is already laid down in this mandate, because we have already had difficulties with visits. This means - look for alternatives for "Incirlica", a possible alternative, for example, among others is Jordan
- Merkel said.

Earlier, the official representative of the German Ministry, Martin Schaefer, said that Turkey informed the Foreign Ministry of Germany a day before the start of the intended visit of a group of German deputies to the Incirlik military base about the impossibility of the trip.

          After the withdrawal of the GSVG, in Germany there were more aerodromes than airplanes. So after all, they turned them into entertainment centers, and now they roam around the world, looking for where to stumble. If you want, google Grossenhain, this is Hitler's former personal airfield. Moreover, the entire airfield infrastructure was not destroyed - takeoffs, taxiing, arched shelters, hangars, etc. request

              Peter, hi I don't pretend to be. I served urgent in Gossenhayn, I say what I know for sure. And as for the theater of operations, there seems to be little backlash, they again want to rake it. They are working in Syria for the "uncle" because of the puddle. Or am I wrong?

      It seems that NATO’s position in Turkey is not so good after the famous referendum.

      And Turkey can now be offended. The NATO ally does not want to defend it. Or maybe it will come out of NATO, huh? And Germany will be made guilty, it’s supposedly the first beginning.

        In the German media, when discussing the "hardships and deprivations" of aerial reconnaissance with their Tornadoes from Incirlik, Israel was repeatedly mentioned. Firstly, their native equipment, without any refinement, did not allow the use of advanced Israeli intelligence capabilities. containers, and secondly, the favorite of Western peacekeepers from Lebanon and neighboring countries, Israeli Nahariya, where they rent hotels and keyfloor villas with families, this is not Jordan. Again, you can not fly anywhere, drink coffee next to Israeli soldiers at large screens and "scout" online. But then there will be no German contribution to the "coalition" ... smile

      Only a mattress in the garage can be proper, and not politics (Trump, C and GDP are there, the rest crawl under the rug)

      And today the German blogosphere is about the same:
      "Warum hat man eigentlich bei der Suche nach Alternativstandorten nicht Israel in Betracht gezogen? Es ist eine stabile Demokratie mit einer guten militärischen Infrastruktur. Fürchtete man negative Reaktionen seitens deritrabütürtémürtrétürt in fact, in the search for alternative places, do not take Israel into account? Is it a stable democracy with good military infrastructure. Are we afraid of a negative reaction from the Arab world? Such military cooperation will probably be of interest also to NATO) Reptiles with "crosses" feel what there is a "desert" in the north of Israel ... .
