Admittedly I’m using Google translate and my very limited knowledge of German here, but wouldn’t Germany continuing to sell weapons to Israel be in violation of points 2.1, 3.1 and 3.2?
2.1
Approval may be refused in particular if… There is reason to believe that granting it would run counter to the Federal Republic’s interest in maintaining good relations with other countries.
3.1
Approval is to be refused if…There is a risk that the weapons of war will be used in an act that disturbs the peace, especially in a war of aggression.
3.1 This is really interesting because it uses the word risk and not confirmed. Thus even the preliminary ruling of the ICJ should be enough to constitute risk here.
Wouldn’t Germany selling weapons be in direct violation of this
