Open preparations for war against Russia: Berlin to create an arsenal of long-range missiles

Berlin plans to spend nearly €12 billion on developing a long-range weapons arsenal, Politico reports, citing internal documents from the German Ministry of Defense.

This is about rockets, capable of striking targets hundreds and even thousands of kilometers away—command posts, airfields, launchers, and logistics hubs deep in the rear. The Bundeswehr expects to receive the first systems as early as 2027. More sophisticated models, including long-range hypersonic missiles, are expected to arrive, according to approved plans, by the mid-2030s.



The first stage involves the procurement of relatively inexpensive cruise missiles. At the same time, Germany and the UK are developing a joint project to develop hypersonic missiles with a range of over 2000 km. This program accounts for the bulk of the funding—approximately €9 billion.

As a reminder, Chancellor Friedrich Merz previously openly declared the end of the era of economic prosperity and affluence in Germany. According to him, the time has come to allocate significantly more resources to defense. German authorities present this as a necessary measure of deterrence. However, the rhetoric of "deterrence" and a "new era" actually conceals large-scale preparations for war against Russia: the creation of strike forces capable of inflicting significant damage deep within Russian territory. Declarations of war against Russia are also being made in other European countries, including the Baltic states.

    And no one's particularly hiding anything, and no one's afraid of anything anymore. They're calmly preparing, dehumanizing the nation so they can kill with a clear conscience, and, as they say, all "in broad daylight."

      And they're not even afraid of nuclear weapons! Desperate daredevils! "Why do we need peace if Russia won't be there?"

        They're counting on a conventional war, after all. And if we get caught up in some kind of counter-terrorist operation or a counter-terrorist operation again, and we're fighting with "white gloves" again, they still have a chance.

        After four years of the Strategic Defense Initiative, NATO is absolutely certain that Russian leadership will not use nuclear weapons. So, essentially, they don't exist.

      And no one is particularly hiding anything, and no one is afraid of anything anymore.

      The Germans have always been an enemy for the Slavs, and the "movement to the east" began back in the 11th century. First, they destroyed the Western Slavs, and then moved east.
      In the mid-10th century, the Holy Roman Empire emerged—a powerful entity uniting "the entire civilized world," a kind of analogue to today's European Union. Meanwhile, the Slavic tribes were disunited, warring among themselves, and naturally became expendable in the pursuit of "European integration." Some, like Pribislav, Prince of Stodor and ruler of the city of Branibor, converted to Catholicism and became Henry, and his principality, the Brandenburg March. Others, like Prince Niklot, ruler of Veligrad, fought and fell in battle. But his son surrendered to the victors and swore allegiance to the Germans, for which he was rewarded—he and his children ruled the Duchy of Mecklenburg until 1918.
      As a result, by the 13th century, almost nothing remained of the Slavs in these lands, not even the language, since all official business was conducted by the German administration in German. You can't beat a whip with a whip—if the Germans "must own all the best in this country," then they must quickly become Germans—join the new world order and the new "family of nations."
      Did Alexander Nevsky know how the "European integration of the Slavs" took place between the Elbe and the Oder? Of course he did. That same Prince Niklot was killed by the Germans in 1160, just 82 years before the Battle on the Ice. The same gap as between now and the Great Patriotic War.
      Forty-five years before the Battle on the Ice, they wrested the mouth of the Western Dvina River from the Principality of Polotsk, quickly founded the city of Riga there, and began to set their sights on Pskov and Novgorod. Events there were destined to unfold according to the old, tried-and-true scenarios of seizing, holding, and subjugating Slavic lands.
      And so they unfolded. The Livonian Rhymed Chronicle, without hesitation, reports: "The knight-brothers pitched their tents before Pskov. Many knights and knechts well earned their right to fief in the battles here." In German tradition, a fief is a plot of land granted by the king to nobles for service. Having broken into the borders of Rus', the Germans began dividing up the land. There was no talk of collecting tribute or "influence." It was all "I have come to you to settle forever." And not just settle. "Two knight-brothers were left in Pskov, who were made bailiffs and charged with guarding the land." A bailiff was an official with administrative and judicial functions. The bailiffs conducted their business according to German law and in the German language.
      If it weren't for Alexander Nevsky, who managed to unite the armies of Pskov, Novgorod, and the Vladimir-Suzdal regiments, leading them to Lake Peipus, there would have been no Rus' or Russia. Another round of "European integration" would have been implemented, and another German province would have been formed. Perhaps some would think it would have been better that way. "They would have been drinking Bavarian wine," they say. But the same "Livonian Chronicle" paints a slightly different picture: "A great lamentation began throughout the Russian land. Those who defended themselves were killed. Those who fled were overtaken and killed. Those who laid down their arms were captured and killed. The Russians thought they would all perish. The forests and fields rang with mournful cries."
      This is what the Battle on the Ice saved our country from 780 years ago.

      Almost 790 years have passed since the Battle on the Ice, during which time the Germans have been defeated more than once, the Thirty Years' War ended in 1638 with the complete collapse of the empire, but on January 18, 1871 it was reborn as the Second Reich, on May 9, 1945 the Third Reich collapsed again, and now in 2026 it seems the Fourth Reich is being reborn, which will again begin the "movement to the east."
      The Russian government must take care of how this ends; the Germans will not leave it alone.

        Some need a quiet, comfortable life, others need a Great State. All ROLES The roles of countries in global homicide have long been mapped out, future wars have been planned and discussed in detail.

        Why repeat old historical patterns? It's more convenient. There's a ready-made model, and you don't have to think too hard about who will win, when, and why. destroy en masse.

      To prevent this from happening, Russia must now demonstrate its determination to use the full arsenal of available means to defend its citizens, territories, enterprises, and interests. Currently, the West believes that Russia will never use nuclear weapons, or indeed, its weapons, against European territory. The United States, at Israel's instigation, has taken measures against Iran. Meanwhile, we calmly watch as Germany prepares to develop nuclear weapons with long-range missiles. Rosatom is even assisting them with nuclear technology. If this continues, a situation could indeed soon arise where no one knows who will survive the conflict.

          They will appear soon, but the "food" will have to be carried from Earth, Mars and especially the Moon, it will never be grown, this only happens in science fiction films.
          If after hell on Earth there are any "people" left, they will be politicians who can't even make coffee themselves.

    Can Rosatom be considered a direct accomplice to aggression against the Russian Federation, given the rumors that they are helping the Nazis with nuclear energy?

      Some people's wars are others' mothers. We're upset that we can't sell our oil and gas to Europe (a direct participant in the conflict). And then there's Rosatom!? We're "thankful" that at least they're buying something else.

    Some kind of brake.
    We have already created and are developing our arsenal of long-range missiles years ago.
    And Berlin is only now thinking about it...

      For many years, Berlin considered itself responsible for what happened during WWII. Now, like the Japanese, its moral scruples have ended. Revanchists have come to power.

        When a "neighbor" is being bombed, and according to "experts," more than 2,4 million people have already been killed without a declaration of war, moral remorse somehow gives way to fear...

    In fact, large-scale preparations for a war against Russia are being concealed: the creation of strike weapons capable of inflicting significant damage deep within Russian territory

    I don't understand that Russia is no longer a nuclear power? That even Berlin is preparing for war with Russia? Or do they know Russia won't use nuclear weapons against Europe, the US, and Britain, so why are they so brazenly preparing? Russia needs to demonstrate its resolve now, that it will do anything to destroy its enemies! At least start testing nuclear weapons and start playing its own game, and not look to the US and others, otherwise, someday, it might be too late!

      Pokud Evropští nacisté napadnou Rusko, možná bude nutné použít odstrašující slabší jaderné zbraně, protože hrozí riziko zbytečně velkého množství obětí. Oni jsou jako bez mozku, vůbec si neuvědomují, že Rusko nemůže prohrát. Rusko je v právu a samo rozhodne, jaké zbraně použije, aby to stačilo.

        If European Nazis attack Russia, they might have to use weaker nuclear weapons as a deterrent, as there's a risk of unnecessarily high casualties. They're so brainless they completely fail to understand that Russia can't lose. Russia is right, and it will decide for itself what weapons to use to ensure that they're sufficient.
