  1. Gladly. After Russia learned that invading their neighbors is more trouble than it’s worth. I think they need a bit more economic pain to learn that lesson though.

    He did say „if peace prevails, if freedom is guaranteed“, which likely means „once the war is over and Russia becomes democratic, or at least Putin is no longer in power“. I wouldn’t expect any significant shifts in German policy towards Russia, at least as long as there’s a CDU/CSU government. Merz does probably miss the cheap gas and reduced defense expenditure, but there’s no going back to that for the foreseeable future. Maybe with an AfD government I guess.

    Yeah…no. The only difference between Russia and the USA is that the USA is an overwhelming threat to Europe, while Russia is a threat that can be dealt with if something is done about it. Both should be shunned.

    The sooner we rip off the bandaid and learn to stand alone, the better. No coddling with would-be-hegemonic dictators: USA, Russia, China.

    Yeah after the Putin regime has ended it’s of utmost importance for Russia to quickly be rehabilitated and put into the EU together with Belarus, Moldova and other stragglers.

    We shouldn’t repeat the mistake of last century in punishing Germany too harshly for WW1. But on the other side Russia should truly embrace the liberal democratic values of the west to the extent Germany did after WW2.
