[DEZ] German Zeitenwende

DEZ | German ‘Zeitenwende’ on Großwald.org curates analysis of Germany’s ongoing transformation in defense and security policy. First framed by Chancellor Olaf Scholz in his 27 February 2022 Bundestag address, the Zeitenwende has evolved into a long-term restructuring of the Bundeswehr, procurement systems, and Germany’s role in NATO and the EU. This section tracks the implementation phase—modernization programs, capability gaps, and Berlin’s shifting posture on Europe’s eastern flank.
