Ankara Center for Crisis and Policy Studies (ANKASAM) Asia-Pacific Expert Dr. Cenk Tamer’s article titled “Germany’s “Ukraine Dilemma” and Strained Relations with the US” was shared on Al Jazeera Balkans. In this analysis, Tamer used the following statements: “The US is trying to keep the world crises under its control and use them as a means of pressure on allied states. Ukraine and Taiwan are the most prominent of these issues. Both problems constitute Germany’s “weak spot.” For many years, Berlin has developed serious partnerships with Moscow and Beijing in areas such as the economy and energy and has entered a relationship of interdependence with these countries. It does not seem possible for Germany to break free from these chains in the short term. Therefore, it can be argued that Germany will have to follow the US for a while longer.”
