German Chanceller Mr.Schroeder of the ruling SPD/Green co-aliton managed to win the general election to the Bundestag in Sept. 2002 although the initial forecasts were negative before the electioneering campaign. Major reasons for his slim victory over his rival Mr. Stoiber of CDU/CDS could be attributed to his open criticism of US policy towards Iraq and German denial of military cooperation in an expected military attack by the US against Iraq in addition to his prompt rescue operation in the area in the former East Germany which suffered from the huge deluge in August. The first public disagreement after the end of WW2 with the major US policy surprised and angered the Bush Administration. The split between the two states might not be as big as it seems to be. However, objective conditions surrounding Germany support its selfassertiveness after the unification between the West and the East reconfirming its supremacy not only in the economic term but also in the EU's policy toward the East or external policies in general. In spite of defiance against the US policy against Iraq Germany in the post-cold war period was more aggressive than before in its despatch of Federal aymy outside Europe to Balkan. Under the Schroeder's leadership Germany was more positive in extending its role in the East including Afghanistan. It could be rightly pointed out that Germany is at a cross point in its role in Europe and in the East of Europe, Balkan, Caucasus and Central Asia, which might induce intensified conflict with the U.S. in the future.
