Recently, the United States has been acting frequently. It has not only signed a number of blockbuster agreements with India, but also launched a large-scale amphibious landing exercise with Japan, just when the outside world thought that the future Asian version of "Little NATO" would focus on these three When the country started construction, Australia and Germany stepped forward. Australia not only sent a large number of warships to conduct large-scale exercises with the US aircraft carrier formation in the southern waters, but also launched a series of cooperation with the United States on the development of rare earth resources. What is even more unexpected is that Germany, as far away as Europe, also decided to join it.
China was accidentally betrayed
According to the latest report of the "Eurasia Times", Germany will deploy a frigate in the Asia-Pacific region in the future to safeguard the interests of German merchant ships in the Indian Ocean. German Foreign Minister Karenbauer said in an interview with the media that although China has become Germany's largest trading partner, with the continuous increase of China's international influence, Germany needs to follow the pace of other NATO countries, despite the impact of the epidemic. The German economy in 2020 has experienced a sharp decline, but on the contrary, the German defense expenditure in 2021 has seen a substantial increase. Karenbauer emphasized that in the future, this warship will begin deployment in 2021 at the latest and launch patrols in the Indian Ocean with the Australian Navy.
has to say that Germany’s move is beyond everyone’s expectations. It must be known that since the United Kingdom withdrew from the European Union, Germany has become one of the strongest military forces in the European Union. Under the leadership of Germany, the European Union has not only launched a large-scale cooperation with Russia. Energy cooperation projects have also begun to levy high digital taxes on US technology companies. Even in the case of Huawei's 5G cooperation projects rejected by mainstream Western countries, Germany is openly antagonizing a group of allies, not only did not cancel Huawei's 5G bidding qualifications, but strongly encouraged it to participate in 5G construction projects in Germany. Merkel has also stated in public on many occasions that China will become Germany's most important trading partner in the future, and the Asian market will also become a key direction for German companies.
Germany once again made a small calculation
. But whoever thinks that the situation in South Asia is becoming more and more complicated. Germany not only chose not to support China but chose to join forces with the United States, Australia and other allies. It is no wonder that the Russian media directly believes that Germany’s move is self-decision. The way of making money is really stupid. However, it is worth mentioning that, in order to build the Asian version of "Little NATO" as soon as possible, US Secretary of State Pompeo has taken great pains, not only has launched large-scale visits in Asia, but also provided a lot of economic assistance to Vietnam and other countries. In order to cooperate with India in the four areas of regional security cooperation, defense information sharing, regional exchanges, and arms trade, US Secretary of State Pompeo also rushed to New Delhi with Secretary of Defense Esper to have a 2+2 meeting with Indian senior officials.
In fact, Germany sent a frigate to the Indian Ocean with its own cautious thinking. After all, the United States and Germany had been in trouble because of the cost of the garrison. The relationship between the two parties has dropped directly to freezing point. Germany also hopes to take this This event eased the relationship between the two countries, and at the same time, Germany can expand its influence in the Asia-Pacific region. The German Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also repeatedly claimed that Europe is currently closely connected with the Indo-Pacific supply chain, and the current major global trade routes pass through the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific. Therefore, in order to maintain Germany's interests, it is necessary to maintain local stability and security.
