In 2024, around 37 percent of people in Germany stated that if a NATO member country was attacked, then Germany should participate in a military operation. This was a decrease compared to the previous year.
If a NATO member was attacked should Germany participate in a military operation to defend this country?
This question was phrased by the source as follows: "Imagine that another NATO member country was attacked: should Germany, in this case, participate in a military operation or should Germany stay out of a military operation if possible?"
¹ The survey was conducted in May 2922 (after the Russian attack on Ukraine)
