In an article for Frankfurter Rundschau, German MP Jürgen Trittin stated that the world is on the verge of a nuclear arms race, but that tragedy could be avoided if relations with Russia were improved.

European countries are reacting incorrectly to the threat of a new arms race while trying to blame Russia for everything, Jürgen Trittin noted.
In addition, he stressed that the United States continues to destroy peace agreements, leaving the world facing even greater dangers.
"The current US administration's actions are a combination of Donald Trump's chaotic, anti-constructive behavior and the belligerent attitudes of Pence and Bolton. This is a toxic mix and represents a threat to European security," added MP Jürgen Trittin.
From there, Mr. Trittin said that Europe needs to come up with its own solution to solve the problem by strengthening mutual relations with Russia, as well as refusing to deploy the US missile defense system.
"European security can only be achieved together with Russia. The North Atlantic Alliance must not only propose the removal of tactical nuclear weapons from the continent, but also reject the US missile shield system if Russia is also ready to take steps towards disarmament," the German parliamentarian concluded.
