      Pragmatically hes right. EU is not in a place to cut ties. They need more time to diversify their trade. They are still in a war that requires American arms.

      His tone is not speaking to the average Joe.

        What I mean is that Germany should have taken this fucking seriously at some point between 2014 and now. Because to many people - including myself - it looks like they’re doing essentially fuck-all, and are being so punctiliously bureaucratic that they’re going to procedure themselves into an early fucking grave. The willful ignorance is absolutely astounding.
