11/02/2005 (Agence Europe) - MEP Angelika Beer (Green, Germany) expressed concern in a communication at the report of the (American) Natural Resources Defence Council in which the USA currently has 480 nuclear warheads in Europe, 150 of them on the Büchel, Nörvenich and Ramstein bases in Germany (in addition to 110 on an American base in Suffolk, 90 in Turkey, 90 in Italy, 20 in Belgium and 20 in the Netherlands). The German government should bring up the issue during President Bush's visit to Brussels, said Ms Beer, in whose view “the nuclear arsenal in Europe must be decommissioned as quickly as possible and at the same pace as the Russian arsenal”.
