Friedensplan Nahost: Welche Rolle spielt Deutschland?

October 6, 2025
13505

Hoffnung im Nahen Osten – und Realismus in Berlin: Außenminister Wadephul reist nach Katar, Kuwait und Israel, um Deutschlands Rolle beim Gaza-Friedensplan von Donald Trump zu definieren. Parallel telefoniert Friedrich Merz erstmals seit Wochen wieder mit Benjamin Netanjahu. Gordon Repinski spricht mit Hans von der Burchard über die aktuellen Fortschritte, die Fallstricke und die Rolle Deutschlands auf dem Weg in Richtung Ende des Gaza-Kriegs.

Aber wie groß ist der deutsche Einfluss wirklich? Norbert Röttgen sagt im 200-Sekunden-Interview: „Wir sind in Wahrheit politisch abgemeldet – das ist die Folge jahrelanger Fehlentscheidungen.“

In der Innenpolitik geht es um Wachstum: Katherina Reiche legt eine leicht verbesserte Herbstprognose vor, doch die große Wirtschaftswende bleibt aus. Rasmus Buchsteiner erklärt, warum 0,2 Prozent Aufschwung kaum reichen – und warum die Koalition beim Autogipfel in dieser Woche liefern muss: vom Verbrenner über die Elektromobilität bis zum europäischen Schulterschluss.

Das Berlin Playbook als Podcast gibt es jeden Morgen ab 5 Uhr. Gordon Repinski und das POLITICO-Team liefern Politik zum Hören – kompakt, international, hintergründig.

Für alle Hauptstadt-Profis: Der Berlin Playbook-Newsletter bietet jeden Morgen die wichtigsten Themen und Einordnungen. Jetzt kostenlos abonnieren.

    Gott sei Dank, dass Deutschland endlich die Gelegenheit bekommt, beim Gaza-Friedensplan ein bisschen mitzumischen – schließlich kann man den Einfluss eines großen Autos nur erhöhen, wenn man auch im Rückspiegel schaut. 🚗💨

    Looks like Germany’s diplomatic efforts are on par with a blindfolded game of pin the tail on the donkey – all the movement but no clue where the peace is. 😂 Better bring your own schnitzel for this long ride to nowhere!

    Oh, look at Germany trying to play peacemaker in the Middle East while struggling to agree on a decent schnitzel recipe at home. 🤷‍♂️ Maybe they should focus on their own backyard before tackling global diplomacy!

    So, Deutschland spielt eine Rolle im Friedensplan, während wir alle noch versuchen herauszufinden, ob unser nächster Ausflug zum Bäcker auch wirklich einen Sinn macht. 🍞👀 Hoffen wir mal, dass die 200 Sekunden von Röttgen uns nicht noch mehr zum Schmunzeln bringen als die letzte Kaffeepause in der Kabine! ☕️😏

    Germany’s role in the Middle East peace plan? Right, because if there’s one thing we’re known for, it’s our knack for solving conflicts from a distance with a side of bureaucracy. 😂✈️

    So, Germany’s off to play peacekeeper in the Middle East while our economy is still figuring out how to walk straight after a few too many beers. 🍻 Who knew being “politically abgemeldet” could be a full-time job?

    Deutschland als Friedensbroker im Nahen Osten? Das ist ja fast so wahrscheinlich wie ein Berliner bei der U-Bahn pünktlich! 😂 Vielleicht sollten wir das Ganze einfach “Operation: Hoffnung auf dem Papier” nennen.

    Guten Tag, just what we need – a German delegation to spice up the Middle East chaos, because nothing screams peace like a bureaucrat on a plane! ✈️💼 Hope they packed their best negotiation hats along with a side of ultimate realism. 😏

    So, Deutschland spielt also eine gewichtige Rolle im Nahen Osten, während wir hierzulande noch überlegen, ob wir unsere Brötchen mit oder ohne Butter essen. 🤔🍞 Vielleicht sollten wir beim nächsten Mal einfach den Kaffeeklatsch mit Netanjahu auf die Agenda setzen, das bringt sicher mehr als die ganzen Telefonate!

A government might sign every significant convention and advocate for dignity and the rule of law yet still allow abuses at its borders, in prisons, through digital systems, and in the treatment of minorities.
