      LOl this is such BS, all those countries were bigger buyers from russian oil and gas then germany.

      Well, it doesn’t look like the post-Merkel era is more peaceful or prosperous now.

      Stop spread Russian propaganda by some clips cut from some 5 second clips and watch the whole interview. She makes it very clear that it is not their fault and rather simply explains the chronology of the events and in one of many mentioned step the EU states couldn’t agree on a united position, which is not giving any fault for the war to anyone.

      Please don‘t spread Russian propaganda aimed at disrupting cohesion

      Heavens, the Putinbots are out in force again. Because she has a point with the behaviour of quite some eastern european countries. And I never even voted for that CDU slave.

    6. Sure_Place8782 on

      Just another russian bot spamming some bs. Watch the interview and listen closely to what she said instead of this nonsense.

      It’s funny how much of a failure the russian disinformation bots are on most European subs. Yet r/Conservative ate that shit by the shovelful and were absolutely crushed into a bot-reddit in the span of a few months lmao

    8. Russian bots sowing discord? Good job…

      I get it Merkel is and was trash, I agree. But honestly I feel like these posts just corrode the idea of a Europe that wants to and should work together.

    9. Can someone tell me how this is Russian propaganda when Merkel visits one of Putins stooges (Orban) to promote her book on how easy it was to wreck German economy and culture and casually lets out that indirectly Baltic states and Poland are responsible for Ukrainian war because they didn’t want to go to bed with Russia after Georgian and Crimea invasion?

      Stop spreading what is probably a Russian disinformation campaign designed to divide us, OP

    11. It’s amazing this stuff is all being generated by a typically bad Daily Mail article.

    12. AlbatrossOk6223 on

      It’s not even bait anymore, you’re just throwing the whole fishing pole out there.

      I’m actually surprised that Merkel is so vocal about her own legacy and tours around the world saying basically „I did nothing wrong“. Lots of us Germans expected her to be rather quiet in retirement. Maybe that is her plan for after the book tour, but it surely won’t help to drop certain opinions like the way she does now.

      That being said, don’t believe all the stuff that is written about her now. Lots of stuff is the stuff is just „I read the headline“.

    14. SoSmartKappa on

      She did not really said that it is Poland or Baltics fault, she said that they did not supported the agreement

      People just see something misinterpreted to drive engagement, and then share it without even checking the source or the original statement. This all comes from Daily Mail tabloid article

    15. Don´t get gaslighted by false narrative and wrong quotes… Read the article and don´t just angry type under some bot trying to rile you up. Be smarter and don’t let those people manipulate you through emotions… jesus

    16. SuperSatanOverdrive on

      The first part is fair enough, but Merkel has never said the Baltics or Poland is at fault.

      She may have been too naive in believing in peace through trade with Russia, but she’s not stupid.

      Seems more like russian propaganda trying to discredit Germany.

    17. Imaginary_String_814 on

      I dislike most of her policies and positions but she is very clear in the interview, she doesn’t blame said nations for the war. 

    18. Please get your facts straight. We won’t help nobody with this hysteria blame game and will only hurt ourselves.

    19. Merkel seems to be ignoring that Europe/NATO didn’t have and STILL DOESN’T HAVE a doctrine for Russia. The eastern european states likely wanted to avoid further economic entanglement / concessions with/to Russia – raising the costs of opposing Russia later – and thus were against talks alltogether without a unifying strategy.

      That’s far from being „against diplomacy“

    20. Repulsive-Whole-5986 on

      Watch the whole interview and then you will know that you are wrong and out of context

    21. MinscfromRashemen on

      All this does is create a rift between EE/LV/LT/PL and DE as a strategic defense partner.

      Merkel has A LOT OF FAULTS, but this is a nothing story. She merely stated that EE/LV/LT/PL feared that the EU wouldn’t be able to provide a unified position against RU (and it proved to be a correct take – see HU and SLO) and that’s why no more agreements were made.

      It’s very ironic that members of this sub are claiming to be resistant to propaganda, but fall into the most obvious of flytraps.

    22. This post is complete bullshit – most likely russian propaganda – Merkel hasn’t said or even hinted at anything like that.

    23. „NATO promised not to expand beyond poland in 1991“

      No it didn’t. NATO doesn’t „expand“. It’s a defensive alliance Countries apply for membership.

      „NATO is provoking russian reaction, they want to gain control of Ukraine“

      No, again, Ukraine ASKED to join NATO and EU. It was not forced.

      Russia put puppet governments in Belarus, Hungary, Slovakia, Czechia, waged war on Cechnya twice, Georgia, Ukraine in 2014 and 2022. Declared multiple times of wishing to regain control on Polish „russian“ territories and reconnect with Kaliningrad. Tried to meddle with elections in Bulgaria, Romania, Armenia, Moldova

      Finland and Poland have been dealing for years with russian military exercises crossing borders, drones trespassing, fighters invading their airspace.

      What other reaction do people expect from the baltics who live literally side by side with a war mongering superpower, who has historically invaded them multiple times?

      Does Putin want to military invade Germany, France? Absolutely not, he’s not an idiot. What he wants is to regain control on historically „russian“ territories who now fall in multiple sovereign independent countries. He’s willing to do it peacefully or „silently“, fueling instability, coups, political division.

      Eastern Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, Donbass, Transnistria, Armenia, Georgia, Hungary. They’re all at risk.

    24. No_Hay_Banda_2000 on

      This is deliberate disinformation. I don’t like Merkel at all, but she never blamed Poland or the Baltic’s.

    25. painfully_blue on

      C’mon guys, we can blame Merkel for many things, but she didn’t say anything like that. Stop believing 5 second tiktoks and article titles.
