VW in Germany is heavily unionized. Under German law, unions have several seats on the company's board of directors. There is NO way that VW could avoid the UAW..

Has there been a vote for the union at the new plant?

Remember when VW did this previously in 1978 in Pennsylvania?

They brought in the UAW and the plant went belly-up in 9 years IIRC.

Surely they learned SOMETHING from that.
