She can wait

Von der Leyen alone does not represent Germany!

Simmer down there Germany

Ursula we love you 😝😂

Germany can stuff it. This have no right to even comment on this subject.

sheilaaj We aren’t answering to you the EU or the UN. Clear enough?

It appears no one is home at the moment....

Clarity will be to pick up more of their defense spending rather than the US going deeper and deeper into debt to provide for their defense.

Clarity? From the current White House Kidding, right?

The US is calling for clarity from the US after the Mattis resignation

You, Germany and orher EU countries, have to pay next years (NATO) and the US will focus on MAGA.

Who Trump has in his cabinet is not up to Germany. We spend over 12 billion a year maintaining a military presence in Germany. We have held their hand since WWII, maybe it's time to reevaluate why we are still there. Poland maybe a better option going forward.

Crazy ass trump could move families and members out of Germany, if Putin tells him to. Agreements nor international commitments matter, anymore.

Well they'll just have to keep a close eye on Twitter like the rest of us

We still think you are pansies. There’s your clarity.

Germany has to good generals so they should not be afraid 😎

Umm . .read Mattis' statement .. how much more clear do they need to be ?

Clarity is an outdated strategy, dear Germany!

Germany needs to keep quiet.

😂 America doesn’t answer to EU slaves. TheMoreYouKnow Breaking the EU. YellowVests Germany DontBeEvil DarkToLight

Who are they asking? There is no leader in the Oval Office!

Why ask? You will get lies and false promises.

Clarity from the White House! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Are they new here?

There is no clarity

i hope they let us know what they find out ...
