The Bundeswehr is the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Territorial Command
In September 2022, the Ministry of Defense decided to pool the leadership of the domestic armed forces in a new Territorial Command. It has the operational command, including the army, air force, navy, medical service and cyber/information space, in security for the fatherland. This also includes administrative and disaster relief, hybrid threat situations, civil-military cooperation and the coordination of the deployment of allied forces in Germany or the transfer via Germany. [1]
The first commander of the new domestic command of the Bundeswehr is General Carsten Breuer, who already headed the Corona crisis team responsible for injecting 64.8 million Germans[2] (77.9 % of the population) with Covid "vaccines". General Brauer stated "The command's operations center will be in operation 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It evaluates open sources, but also evaluates information classified by the military and brings it all together in a territorial situation picture. The situation picture shows where action needs to be taken and provides the framework for further planning. Just getting old plans out of the drawer and dusting them off would fall far short of the mark, especially against the background of hybrid influence. We have to counter hybrid influence with precisely those means and methods that make a state and a society resilient". The new command should also "provide the shell for a national crisis team".[1]

This would also send a signal to rivals such as China that the EU is not only an economic power – it is also a geopolitical actor that knows how to use its strengths to assert its values and interests.” | Franziska Brantner 'Franziska Brantner | March 2022 |
| German Council on Foreign Relations | “DGAP is an insupportable lobbying organization, especially insupportable because we co-finance it as taxpayers. Recently, one of these experts appeared in a television news program again, who are presented in order to (allegedly) disseminate a well-founded opinion. It was about more money for the military, and the quoted expert was Christian Mölling from the German Council on Foreign Relations. This is a lobbying organization that is funded to a considerable extent by us taxpayers and gives the impression that it represents the public interest and thus also the interest of all of us. Mölling is the head of the Center for Security and Defense at the DGAP. Typical for his publications is a DGAP memo with the title: "Defense Budget 2024: The budget is increasing – and not enough yet". The text speaks of a "gaping gap in defense spending". Propaganda for more armaments by publicly paid so-called experts.” | Albrecht Müller | 30 November 2023 |
| Wolfgang Ischinger | “"The need for equipment and ammunition for the Bundeswehr and Ukraine is urgent and huge...Therefore, appropriate priorities must be set." Ischinger also sees a political reason to speak of a "war economy": "Apparently too many have not yet understood that we are only at the beginning of a turning point and that there is actually a real war in the middle of Europe, the end of which unfortunately is not foreseeable.” | Wolfgang Ischinger | 21 November 2022 |
| Roderich Kiesewetter | “If Europe wants to complete the energy transition, it needs its own lithium deposits. The largest lithium deposits in Europe are located in the Donetsk-Lugansk region. (...) So we also have completely different goals in the background here. And that is why we need a united effort of citizens so that our policy has the backing to do more for Ukraine....In doing so, it (Ukraine) is waging a proxy war.” | Roderich Kiesewetter | December 2023 |
