Berlin makes bid to build US weaponry on German soil

Germany is hoping to expand defence industry ties with the U.S. and produce more U.S.-designed weaponry at factories in the country, Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said Wednesday. The pitch comes just ahead of a major NATO summit scheduled for July 7-8 in Turkey, where European military expansion will remain in focus as U.S. President Donald Trump puts pressure on allies to spend more.
