Abstract
The article is focused on the analysis of the evident and hidden reasons of the deep political crisis between USA and Germany. The role of the Donald Trump’s personality is considered as an important factor infl uencing the dialogue between Berlin and Washington. At the same time the article is providing arguments as to why USA is deliberately keeping Germany under pressure by using diverse economical, political and military instruments. This article also compares the mainstream scientifi c approaches towards the analysis of the “transatlantic solidarity”.
