Every Thursday morning at 8:30, DGAP’s Research Institute brings together experts and high-level guests to discuss the latest developments in geopolitics. This week, we will look at Germany’s defense budget in view of the momentous geopolitical shifts that resulted from Russia’s all-out attack on Ukraine. The German government has not yet presented a draft budget (Eckpunkte) for 2024, leaving key policy questions unresolved. Our speakers will discuss defense priorities and fiscal policy in this geopolitical context.
