@dschnaepp As both sides insist, their positions are closely coordinated. But NB: dont exaggerate the degree of rationalization.
The US position at Ramstein is actually quite like the German one rationalized in this excellent thread. No Abrams, Germany a good partner & war "going to have to get to a negotiating table" (Milley) apnews.com/article/russia… twitter.com/minna_alander/…
I don't know whether Berlin's reluctance on tanks for Ukraine is as reflected as this excellent thread assumes – a lot of this is knee jerk and improv; but, if it were, I think this is about right. Plus, not as far from the unspoken US position as is often made out. twitter.com/minna_alander/…

As always @Brad_Setser data and analysis are fab. But @nfergus can we please!! stop tilting at windmills. Both de- and reglobalization are OBVIOUSLY unhelpful ideas.
