Today, we’re bringing you a special bonus episode from our colleagues at WELT.
Originally released in German, Ernstfall is now available in English.
What if Russia attacked NATO? How would Germany respond? And where are our weaknesses? We wanted answers. In a wargame, we simulate an attack on NATO’s eastern flank. Politicians, former military officials, and experts take on the roles of the German government for a day. A second team plays the Kremlin.The wargame triggered an international debate. It’s the reason we decided to publish our results in English as well. In this five-part podcast, you’ll hear a simulation of a crisis that many European leaders hope will never happen.
Script and Storytelling: Antonia Beckermann, Carolina DrütenProduction: Marvin Schwarz
