Germany's new chancellor Friedrich Merz has vowed to build the "strongest conventional army in Europe", and plans to unlock billions of euros to transform the military. It's a major pivot, taking Germany from a culture of strategic restraint to a state of war-readiness. But is Europe ready for a bulked-up Bundeswehr?
