News / Will America send troops to fight a Russian invasion of Baltics and/or Poland? [283]

A lot will hang on Germany's new totally inexperienced foreign minister Baerbock....she is no Merkel....I hope she will end Merkel's "diplomatic style" of shady backroom deals and "phone calls" with dictators over the heads of our neighbours....

Baerbock is still more european idealism and yet alot less Merkel-power-pragmatism....that will be interesting to watch...Putin will for sure like to test her mettle!

I hope she has a plan...

Well....he showed the West how pissed off he is about those sanctions...that he did! :)

They must work, the EU would be stupid to end them now!


Congrats and THANK YOU Poland! :)


I read today that he offered to help them to go home but many said into the international cameras they don't even think about leaving....really awkward!

Will he let these people there freeze to death?

Could be!

It seems that the green politician Annalena Baerbock is set for the position of foreign minister (till now Heiko Maas). Beside that she has zero experience in any kind of important governmental job and isn't that close with telling (or writing) the truth generally, she is an outspoken adversary of Nord Stream 2 and not a friend of Putin at all.

Of course, being part of the government brings always some changes to some positions compared to the time in the opposition (Realpolitik!) but I could believe that Putin did put away the Champagne unopened as the news of this came out of Berlin yesterday...


politico.eu/article/baerbock-against-operating-permit-for-nord-stream-2/

...The green co-leader also believes that providing Nord Stream 2 with a regulatory approval would be contrary to European rules.The Nord Stream 2 AG company, which will own and operate the pipeline, is wholly owned by Russian giant Gazprom, which goes against the EU's gas directive. "As long as that is one and the same corporation, the operating permit must not be granted," Baerbock argues. ...

Could become interesting! :)

I have heard another story....some mother after 1,5 months in the forest mixed milk powder with mud water to feed it to her baby, knowing that the dirty water would kill it but she did it nonetheless, because her baby was so hungry....of course it died...

No links either...

For what reason? That these poor sods want some of our cake too?

That might be annoying when you don't want to share but it is no crime...you would do the same in their shoes...scratch that, we did what they did as we were in their shoes! Our countries had been during most of our history also countries where people rather run away from, searching for better shores...all forgotten already? Imagine those better shores had killed us for looking for a better life!

I'm all for keeping those out who don't deserve asylum...but I still understand them...their are not criminals free to be murdered!

That's why in my opinion a high wall projected through the media into the last corner of this world ist the best solution in this dodgy situation where no real perfect solution will be found...

Interesting.....it seems the discussion about support for EU outer borders is already decided!
Since 2020:

EU Agrees to Support Border Management & Common Visa Policy With €6.241 Billion Over Next 7 Years

schengenvisainfo.com/news/eu-agrees-to-support-border-management-common-visa-policy-with-e6-241-billion-over-next-7-years/

....In a meeting held on Thursday, December 10, the Parliament and the Council reached a political agreement on the border management fund for 2021-2027,worth 6.241 billion, in order to support strong and effective European integrated border management at the external borders.

The same funds will also be used to ensure a harmonised approach for issuing visas and to facilitate legitimate travel, with 10 per cent of the total fund set to be earmarked for visa policy in national programmes upon the insisting of the MEPs present in the meeting....

There should be enough money to build high walls....

What Merkel did makes also alot of Germans unhappy!
Interior minister Seehofer felt the need to repeat that she has not made some secret business with the dictators and no, Germany won't take anybody in and yes, Germany stands for sure at the side of Poland!

The converted are the worst.....the most bigoted!

Just read....about 100 illegals make it through Poland into Brandenburg every day. Between them about 70% Iraqis, the rest Syrians, Afghans, Jemenits, Iranians, Turks and north Africans.

In September came 1300 people, in October 2700, for November already 800...
