Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, colloquially known as AKK, currently acts as Germany's defense minister and has previously been considered as Chancellor Angela Merkel's favored prospect to be the country's next leader. "A country of our size, with our economic and technological power, our geostrategic position and global interests, cannot just stand on the sidelines and watch," she will say at the Bundeswehr University in Munich, before adding: "Germany must participate in international debates and drive them forward."
