Scaling up military production is a challenge of raw materials | To the Point

With a massive one trillion-euro debt-financed twin package for defense and infrastructure, Germany’s new government aims to future-proof the country in the years ahead. "Whatever it takes" - seems to be the motto of Friedrich Merz, Germany's likely next chancellor. Merz, the leader of Germany’s conservative party, the CDU, alongside his expected coalition partner, the SPD, plans to pump huge amounts of money into defense considering Trump's shift away from the EU and the threat posed by Russia. Additionally, up to 500 billion euros will be required to revamp Germany's ailing infrastructure - and all this will be funded by debt. If the plans do pass through the German parliament, the Bundestag, will Germany once again be seen as a role model for Europe? And will the public support this massive rearmament and infrastructure overhaul? Our big question today: Can Germany tackle the crisis with debt?

Our guests:
Alexander Burilkow, expert on military and security issues
Malte Lehming, senior editor at the German daily newspaper Der Tagesspiegel
Karolina Wigura, writer and sociologist from Poland
