Foreign Policy
Germany's foreign policy is anchored in European integration, the transatlantic alliance, and rules-based multilateralism. The Zeitenwende represents a fundamental shift toward accepting greater security responsibilities, including increased defense spending targeting NATO's 2% GDP goal.
Key priorities include managing the EU's relationship with China (balancing economic interdependence with strategic competition), supporting Ukraine's sovereignty and European integration, advancing climate policy and the energy transition (Energiewende), and pursuing UN Security Council reform. Germany coordinates closely with France on EU direction and maintains the transatlantic relationship as a cornerstone of its security.
