Germany says will help finance four new Israeli warships
BERLIN (Reuters) — Germany plans to finance part of the cost of four new corvette warships for the Israeli navy made by German firm Thyssen Krupp under a deal struck with the Jewish state in November, the government said on Monday.
Following approval by German parliament’s budget committee the contract could be finalised before the end of this year, government spokesman Steffen Seibert said.
As part of its atonement for the Nazi Holocaust, Germany is committed to Israel’s security and has often helped pay for the cost of military equipment such as submarines.
The mass‑circulation Bild am Sonntag newspaper reported on Sunday that Berlin had earmarked up to 115 million euros for the warships — which would cost around 1 billion euros in total.
Seibert declined comment on the size of the German contribution.
В двух словах для тех, кто не понимает язык вероятного противника: Германия собирается финансово поддержать покупку Израилем 4 корветов у фирмы Thyssen Krupp. Что дескать Германия укрепляет безопасность Израиля чувствуя вину за Холокост.
Не правда ли, иронично? Вооружать израильских фашистов чувствуя вину за нацизм.
