American, Russian, and Ukrainian delegations have been discussing a peace proposal drawn up by U.S. officials to end the war in Eastern Europe. And while it appears that the Trump administration is operating in good faith, that may not be the case for Europe’s top leaders.

A recent Wall Street Journal report, “Germany’s Secret Plan for War With Russia,” bolsters the suspicion and allegation that Western Europe, and Germany in particular, prefers a wider war with Russia over peaceful compromise. Germany’s plan includes dragging the U.S. into its hypothetical war, mainly via its membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

This may explain why European leaders are vehemently opposed to Ukraine conceding territory it has already lost, territory that Russia, as a victor, will not abandon — territory Ukraine cannot win back without help from other nations. The Germans are “racing to implement” a “secret plan for a war with Russia,” according to the Journal report. The plan “details how as many as 800,000 German, U.S. and other NATO troops would be ferried eastward toward the front line. It maps the ports, rivers, railways and roads they would travel, and how they would be supplied and protected on the way.” Its authors dub it an “all-of-society” approach to war.

This aligns with Europe’s military buildup over the last year. As we reported back in May, many nations on the Continent — Germany especially but also a coalition of Nordic countries — have been boosting defense spending and training. But their rearmament may be about more than just self-defense. You can read our report on that here.

Operation Plan Germany

Operation Plan Germany, according to the Journal, is a 1,200-page classified document “drafted behind the nondescript walls of the Julius Leber Barracks.” The article presents the plan as having two main objectives: beating Russia in an all-out war or (best-case scenario) being so prepared for war that it would prevent one.

This fall, defense contractor Rheinmetall set up a temporary camp in the east German countryside that accommodated 500 soldiers. (Rheinmetall, by the way, just signed a €260 million deal to resupply German and NATO troops.) During the camp’s 14-day meeting, participants played out war situations and learned that “the land couldn’t accommodate all the vehicles” because “it consisted of noncontiguous plots, forcing Rheinmetall to bus soldiers to and fro.” This is one of the many lessons that “are continuously incorporated” into the plan. This is also a reason why “Berlin aims to spend €166 billion by 2029 on infrastructure.”

In a hypothetical war with Russia, “Germany would no longer be a front line state but a staging ground,” according to the Journal. That’s why the administration of German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has been working to prepare the entire country for war. Per the Journal:
