Attack levels raised in Switzerland, Austria and Luxembourg following German threat Warning
Following comments by the German foreign minister this week, Switzerland, Austria and Luxembourg put their armed border forces on top security alert until the 1st of May.
The countries, who had not realized that Germany was still a threat, were shocked into action by comments by Joschka Fischer, the German foreign minister. Commenting on European Enlargement on the 1st May, Germany’s foreign minister Joschka Fischer declared "It's a historic moment. [the 1st of May] will be the first time in modern history that Germany will be the center of Europe…, without us threatening anybody."
The French foreign minister Michel Barnier, said however that France was “Not worried.”.
“There are only a few days before the 1st of May, and if the Germans do try anything, well we always have the Maginot Line to protect us.” He said.
Ed: Joschka Fischer did actually say that... Amazing huh ?
