So, Germany isn't allowed to own aircraft carriers because of the "two plus four agreement" which allowed the reunification of Germany. It's also not allowed for Germany to own nuclear weapons, to have more than I believe 360k soldiers, to station foreign military in Eastern Germany and some more things.
I wonder if Scholz and some other politicians are scared about breaking this agreement with the Taurus situation. I mean, not that they should still care what Russia would think but maybe this would break the agreement which nobody really seems to know completely lol.
