Germany seeks bigger role on global issues
Following years of restraint in foreign policy, Germany seemed to be rethinking its role on international issues, as shown by remarks of its leaders and senior officials on Friday, the first day of the 50th Munich Security Conference.
"Are we doing what we can to stabilize our neighborhood in the east and in Africa? Are we doing what we should to counter the dangers of terrorism? What role do we want to play in crisis in distant parts of the world?" asked President Joachim Gauck at the opening of the three-day conference.
Addressing top decision-makers from around the world, the president said that despite domestic debates that more responsibilities would mean more trouble, Germany should do more to guarantee global security.

Ready for global disaster? Scientists leave 'Doomsday Clock' at five to midnight
The
Science and Security Board of the US-based Bulletin of the Atomic
Scientists has warned UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon that the hand of
the Bulletin's symbolic Doomsday Clock still remains at five minutes to
midnight because "the risk of civilization-threatening technological catastrophe remains high."
The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is an online magazine that covers global security issues related to the dangers posed by weapons of mass destruction and emerging technologies. It was founded in 1945 after the US atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
