The German Finance Ministry has announced ambitious borrowing plans to fund the modernization of the country's armed forces. According to the ministry, Germany plans to borrow more than €800 billion by 2030. In the next year alone, the country aims to raise €200 billion on financial markets. This sum is part of a broader strategy to strengthen national defense capabilities. The move reflects Germany's commitment to increasing its military spending in response to the evolving security situation in Europe.
