Officially there are between 10 and 20 nuclear bombs at the Büchel Air Base in Rhineland Palatinate. Relics of the Cold War stock of about 200 which were kept there until the 1990s.
The US is in process of spending around $4 billion to modernize the bombs and make them steerable rather than just drop bombs as they are now.
The modernization of these weapons by the USA threatens to remove the strict distinction between tactical and strategic weapons.
Although many Germans do not see the point of keeping these weapons in Germany, German foreign policy has failed the aim of removing US nuclear weapons from Germany.
This petition is intended to demonstrate the position of all German citizens in removing these weapons from German soil.
