A process driven by security interests, alliance politics and Germany's lasting responsibility following the Shoah. Drawing on newly examined archival material, the book illustrates how the Gulf War, US pressure and Germany’s own identity converged to produce a precedent-setting decision that reshaped bilateral ties for decades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Aptos; mso-ligatures: standardcontextual; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003eDr. Marcel Serr is a historian and political scientist.
