The plan to deploy U.S. long-range missiles in Germany has sparked both support and concern. Announced at a NATO summit, the deployment set for 2026 aims to enhance European defense with SM-6, Tomahawk, and hypersonic weapons. Supporters say it deters Russia, while critics warn it could provoke a new arms race. The move has created tensions within Chancellor Olaf Scholz's coalition and is likely to be a focal point in upcoming elections. Moscow condemned the plan, promising a response, while domestic opposition in Germany remains strong.
