Tbh, Germany and Japan are probably the strongest industrial powers after China.

They do matter still imho and need to be decoupled from the US.

They're important for sure but are kidding themselves if they think they're militarily at the same levels they were in during ww2.

That might happen, especially in Germany where there's growing public anger now over the declining material conditions. I think once it becomes conclusive that the war is lost and once Trump gets into power in US, the current political establishment will be utterly discredited.
