Change in War in Europe

President Jackson planned on a visit to the UK after his state of the union address. It would also see the President visit Berlin, Warsaw Kiev and Prague. The President wanted to see the Eastern Frontier line in the Ukraine and reassure the Ukrainian Govt and people that the US remained committed to maintaining a free state.
 
President Jackson arrived on Air Force 1 in Kiev and was met by the West Ukrainian President. The Two President drove to a border post from which the American President could see the Soviet border and the wall that had been constructed. Lt General David Peterus USA was the current Commander of US forces in the West Ukraine. He briefed the President on his command and on intelligence on the Soviet forces that faced them. Currently in addition to the US there was a Commonwealth Battle Group consisting of a reinforced Canadian Brigade and 2 British Brigades.
 
President Jackson spent some time with troops from the Third US Armored Division. He also met members of the Seventh Western Ukrainian Tank Division carrying out an exercise with the 24th US Infantry Division. The President was impressed by the professionalism of the Ukrainian and the fact that most of the men that he got a chance to meet spoke perfect English. Their tanks were based on the American M-48 that had been first built under license in Czechoslovakia. They were armed with the Skoda 100mm gun. A newer version of the tank had been developed jointly with the Czechs and Ukrainians. It had an upgraded armor and was to mount a new 120mm gun.
 
The President next flew to Poland where he had a frank discussion with the Polish leadership regarding Russia, the Ukraine and the Baltic States. Poland had been modernizing its forces and appreciated US assistance. Poland would be sending a corp to the Ukraine to carry joint exercises with the US, Ukraine and British Canadian forces.
 
After a meeting with the visiting Lithuanian Prime Minister the President flew off to Berlin where he had a meeting with the German Kaiser and the German Chancellor. It appeared that German's government was not upholding its end in spending on National Defense. The President reminded the German Chancellor that America had shed a lot of blood defending Germany from Soviet aggression.
 
Germany seemed to have forgotten the threat that the Russians had been in the past and had allowed the US to assume the entire burden. President Jackson however reminded the Germans that they had a responsibility to share in the expense of the NATO alliance and it needed to rebuild it military strength. There were those in the Conservative Alliance that agreed with the American President. The Russian Bear was becoming more active and more threatening.
 
President Jackson made a stop in London to meet with the British Prime Minister. It was a frank discussion on his thoughts on the trip to Europe and his experience in dealing with the Germans. Frankly he was disappointed that the Germans had gone to sleep and had thought that the US should carry the entire burden. Things would need to change. The two discuss world relations and some trade issues.
 
The Democrat Congress was divided between those that wanted to support the President and those that wanted to shift spending away from the military and toward domestic spending/ The Vice President had been part of the latter group but since coming to the post of Vice President he had shifted his point of view and tended to support the President in clashes with the Democrat Congressional leadership. The President was a loyal Democrat but if the party was going to block him he would turn to the Republicans and built a coalition with those Democrat who supported him and the Republicans. It was likely that on Defense and foreign policy he would be forced into that position.
 
President Jackson spoke with former President Nixon about the US relationship with the USSR. President Jackson wanted to encourage the Soviets to move to a more reasonable position with regard to the Republic of the West Ukraine. To allow the reunification of families and less hostilities between the powers. The current President believed that too many in his party were deluded into thinking that the US could stand down.
 
another great update , i hope soon massive investments in space exploration , moon landing , Moon Base , and development of Nuclear propulsion, to build Spaceships to fully explore our solar System , and maybe discovering Alien ruins in one of the planets .
 
President Jackson had decided that perhaps it was time to once again inspire the American people and the people of the world with a return to Space. The Us had established a base on the moon but for a variety of reason money for space exploration had been reduced. Now the President was looking at pushing for a landing on Mars in less than 8 years.
 
very good new update , i hope soon the Moonbase starts construction of the 1st massive spaceship , to go explore fully our solar system , and maybe find Alien ruins on a Planet , or a derelectic alien spaceship , that can upgrade human tech , by at least a century , and causing mankind to unite . Cant hardly wait for the next update
 
A decision was made to begin the funding of the MARS Explorer Spaceship. The Congress agreed to appropriate 45 million dollars for phase one of the construction. The President Spoke with the British Prime Minister, Canadian Prime Minister, Australian Prime Minister and the New Zealand Prime Minister about joining the project. As a result nearly another 29 million dollars was made available. The President got a reluctant Democrat Congress to agree to the release of a further 192 million for stage II and the 4 Commonwealth nations agreed to come up with an additional 49 million.
 
great another very good update, let's see the Construction on the Moon of the Massive spaceship, with very strong armor, and Rotating Section to provide Artificial Gravity, and let's see what they will discover on Mars, I think that ESA should also join the Mission. Can't hardly wait for the next update .
