The transatlantic alliance has reportedly been updating plans for a mammoth mobilization in the event of war with Moscow.
Germany is developing plans to ensure that hundreds of thousands of troops could move along an arterial highway transiting much of the nation in the event of a war with Russia, one leading national newspaper has reported.
Convoys, Der Spiegel reported, will have the option to stop for supplies and rest every 300 to 500 meters .Such a mammoth logistical effort may require new powers for Germany's Federal Police, the report noted, with conscription to the service being considered and with officers potentially being involved in the running of any prisoner of war camps.Newsweek cannot independently verify Der Spiegel's reporting and has contacted the German Defense Ministry by email to request comment.
