He was a little troubled leader The person who traveled on Wednesday to Paris and Warso. On his first official trips abroad, the new German advisor Friedrich Mirz has not reached a positive position he expected.

The democratic leader wanted to send a sharp message to his partners. However, it needs Tuesday Two rounds to vote To be confirmed as prime minister, which is an unpublished thing in German political history since World War II. as a result of, He was a leader who shook the national scene Who met his French and Polish counterparts.

This step is likely to be the wrong step A politician weighs on the shoulders of Friedrich Mirz, Whoever wants to take an ideological turn to his country. The new German advisor, chosen in February, wants to make Defense priority. Since its electoral success in February, it is defending Germany is strong inside Europe strong And more independent of the United States. A break with the past for this powerful atlas.

Set aside more resources for defense and talk about expansion France’s nuclear deterrence, Words of German democracy Certainly, French President Emmanuel Macron.

“Yes, it seems promising, and it is good news because it cannot be worse than among them Macron Y Scholz (Former Adviser), They were not well in line with. So I think that with Mirz, who also said he will focus more on international relations and European affairs, we will see a German Frank’s renovation, “explains Sophie Pornschlegel, the accompanying director of Europe” Think-Hink “in Jacques Delers.

However, it remains to see whether Paris and Berlin agree on joint projects or whether the goal is to enhance the national industry. “The question will be, of course, the details, We will have to know if France abandoned it to be very frank “Germany can really get rid of its traditions across the Atlantic, which is still very strong, especially among conservatives.”

Restart the Weimar Triangle

After Paris, Friedrich Mirz went to Warsovia. Again, the gesture was horrific. Poland is the European Union, which is devoted Most of your defense budget. This is the point that the two leader, who come from the same political family, can bring sites.

Poland is a less clear partnerI think, for Mirz, but he knows that he understands, as I think, it is not enough for France and Germany to lead Europe, and that the situation is different, and that Europe is different from what it was in the past, and that it is Poland is also necessary as part Pioter Bouras, director of the Warsaw Office of the European Foreign Affairs (ECFR), says of this European nucleus.

“The fact that he comes to Poland on the first day of his mandate as a consultant, of course, A sign of this greatest interest in this bilateral relationshipAnd I think it will consider Poland an important partner at the same level as the France and Weimar Triangle. “

Weimar is a forum From the cooperation that was established in 1991 between France, Germany and Poland at a time when Europe was in the event of a complete reorganization after the fall of the Berlin Wall. But for Piot Bouras, the re -launch of European machines through this trio is very simplified.

“I think Mirz considers France and Poland, maybe they are not equal partners, but as Really important partners for GermanyBut he knows that the alliances of the volunteers, which will form the future of Europe, should be more important than that. ” With the President of the European Council, Antonio Costa.
