she knew east germany would become a shithole after reunification
>would become
Not just the Soviet Union.
She toured most of the capitals with a briefcase containing a map of gloom and doom future Europe. Sure did try with Miterrand.
Luckily, for once le eternal Anglo's nefarious plans failed.
she unironically always carried a map of the german reich in her purse with her
british obsession with us is scary
east germany was way better when it was communist
France was opposed too, we were forced to agree to do the euro in exchange fof France's approval
the only ones who really supported German reunification were the Americans
I love America so much bros
What the fuck are you talking about, they managed to become orwellian before the smartphone age

>France was opposed too
no... Miterrand wasn't especially keen, but not against either. In the end he agreed provided that further European integration took place.
>we were forced to agree to do the euro in exchange fof France's approval
we hear/read that a lot and I used to believe it, but now I doubt it. Schäuble vehemently denied it when the press came up with that story.
>Americans
yeah, it was rollback of their enemy and moving their military towards the Soviet Union so of course they would support that.
>moving their military towards the Soviet Union
there are no foreign troops in what used to be East Germany, that was a demand the Soviets made before leaving
Yeah but now they just could move there in a matter of hours, before they would have had to fight in the ever-famous Fulda Gap.
That's something we used to hear a lot about, the Fulda Gap.
German reunification made it disappear overnight - never heard of it again, even once, in 30 years.
