L'Allemagne achète des missiles Tomahawk aux États-Unis

Le chancelier Friedrich Merz a annoncé jeudi que les négociations avec le président américain Donald Trump concernant l'achat de missiles de croisière Tomahawk ont été menées à bien.

Lors de sa déclaration gouvernementale, M. Merz a évoqué positivement le sommet de l'OTAN à Ankara. Malgré des différends avec M. Trump au sujet du Groenland et de l'Espagne, la réunion a dépassé ses attentes.

Grâce à cet achat, la Bundeswehr acquiert la capacité de frapper avec précision des cibles situées à des milliers de kilomètres derrière les lignes ennemies. La plupart des partenaires européens de l'OTAN manquaient jusqu'à présent d'une telle capacité.

Cette acquisition répond à la présence de missiles russes à Kaliningrad et en Biélorussie. L'achat reste controversé en Allemagne.
