>When Russia invaded Ukraine, most former European leaders with lucrative posts on the boards of state-backed Russian companies were quick to jump ship in protest: from Finland to Italy, France to Austria, ex-premiers swiftly resigned their positions.
>Only one did not — the former German chancellor Gerhard Schröder.
>His refusal to offer any criticism of Russian president Vladimir Putin has mystified and angered former colleagues and the German public.“I just don’t know why he’s done this,” a former colleague said. “It’s very hard to understand.”
>In response, Schröder’s entire office staff resigned and he has been stripped of honorary citizenship of his home city of Hanover — a punishment it last meted out, posthumously, to Adolf Hitler.
Schröder (from the reigning left-wing party!!!) was actually somewhat realistic about everything. He knows that good ties to Russia are good for the German people. The establishment hates his guts because he is generally liked here and sticks it to Scholz (who is not liked at all, just not hated as much as his competitors).

>cheap Russian gas to propel the German economy and mutual respect for national interests of both actors are bad >this line of thinking is pure kreml propaganda and got absolutely nothing to do with the NATO bases on your territory and all the rampant presence of foreign NGOs influencing almost every facet of life >HOW DARE YOU EVEN QUESTION IT! CHUD! such is the life
Angel Jackson
German should ban that faggot and seize all his assets. His EU citizenship should be revoked and he should be deported to Russia.

Logan Hall
Based Schroder.
Owen Lopez
He is in part part of the actual German *** deep state...
That part considers Germany to be occupied, also plays alot of sides meanwhile... It's fairly strong, and very low key despite fair amount of influence... have to wonder when they will strike! This is well, complicated!
As opposed to what? Being whore for some dollars to the historical and geopolitical enemy instead?
Chase Richardson
based fuck russiaphiles.
listening to putin speak is the litmus test for NPCs. If you think what he's saying is true and that his monologues about the west 'fooling' you or being heavily propagandized while he's exempt from this, you are a retarded faggot. the first speech / interview i watched from putin i kinda thought this way, but then I read up on the basic entire history of Ukraine and USSR/Russia and realize that Putin and the tsars before him were the real faggots.
More and more EU is reminding of USSR. I wonder at which point people there will realize they are living behind iron curtain and their lives contolled by single party and KGB.
Asher Gonzalez

Cameron Collins
> EU citizenship revoked What a collossal blind faggot. You think you are opposing the soviet Russians by running into the arms of EU kikes? The one that wants to become USSR 2.0 with troon rights? yeah good job.
Jackson Taylor
Ehh? The west was pushing eastward. Georgia, Ukraine, Syria, Libya, Azerbaijan and Armenia, and most recently with Kazakhstan. Foreign powers trying to regime change and neuter ruskie influence in key regions. Many right next door. The west ultimately wants to regime change and balkanize Russia. This has nothing to do with Putin and more to do with the west wanting to break up russia and break it into a bunch of puppet states of the west.
Then they target chinks. Btw nice memeflag, bitch.
Brayden Hughes
Kek, we still don't need a wall to keep people in
Matthew Wright
Nah it is influence peddling. Key difference here is that the west wants Russia totally neutered. This is wrong.

If only you could read, you would've realised the OP is about this very fact you purport to expose, you utter mong
Asher Lee
And why do you care if they invaded Ukraine? Ukraine is not EU. Not Poland. Not NATO.
Blake Cox
