And that is what is really frightening. And Scholz talks about limiting rearmament.

Our Chancellor's words are pathetic. First the turning point and then these political lapses. No strength, no backbone, no class.

No trust in Scholz, but he won't be chancellor for much longer. What's worse: I don't trust Merz either. No one can govern against a majority, and I fear that a majority of the German people will be happy with an end of the war, even if it comes at the price of a capitulation of Ukraine.

Let's wait and see. The fact that Europe is allowed to take care of Ukraine. Yes, Scholz will not get a big chapter in the history books. On the other hand, he has responsibility for the country. What would we do in his place?

Okay, ich steige auf Deutsch um. 1. Ukraine weiterhin in Kooperation mit den europäischen Partnern unterstützen. Mit "weiterhin" meine ich: mehr als vorher. 2. Pläne für eine Friedensordnung entwerfen. Ohne USA kein Nato-Beitritt. Also etwas anderes.

Germans interpret the war through the lens of World War 2, meaning that they consider capitulation not so bad, occupation not so bad, dictatorship not so bad, and deep down in their hearts they still believe that might makes right and that those who are weaker should be reasonable and give in.
