German leader Angela Merkel said that multilateralism was under threat and said that protectionism is not the answer to the world's problems. 
"Frankly speaking, the country I have the honor to represent and where I am chancellor has difficulties. And polarization is something that we see in our country as well, which we haven't had for decades," Merkel said. 
She attributed increasing populism and polarization to both the euro zone crisis and migration crisis seen in Europe over the last few years following an influx of refugees, but said Germany would not shrink from the world stage. 
"Germany wishes to be a country that lends its contribution in the future to solve the problems of the world together, we think that shutting ourselves off and isolating ourselves will not lead us into a good future. Protectionism is not the proper answer," she said.

    The Current World Order is a threat to humanity in general and to liberty in particular.

    I recommend that Germany starts there own investigations into Global elitist corruption. They can start with Merkel.

    She and her fellow libtards see sh*tholism threatened. It is also quite strong in Amerika. It is all for the cheap labor that fills the coffers of the elite globalists. It is Merkel the ex Stasi Muslim Wench and New World Order Stooge vs the vision of Reagan/Trump.

    Dear Mutti Merkel
Perhaps if the “ world order” is under threat, it isnt serving everyone as well as it serves you at least in your analytical political mind
Now- what are you willing to do to keep your power? At what cost and to who? Who and what are you willing to crush ? And by means?
Do you think that Germany will restore “stability? “
The world hasnt forgotten nor has all been forgiven
Ah, Kissinger. He once said Germany was too big for Europe and too small for the world. Consider that. Maybe in the EU you have reached the limits of who you can control and even that is not assured if the French and British awake and remember what it was like to be French and British.

 Good. Aside from benefiting the millionaires and billionaires who'll be flying in private jets to Davos this week to lecture the rest of us about global warming, the current world order isn't accomplishing much.

    The Germans are about as dense as any other people in choosing “leaders.”
 
To: Beave Meister
    She makes it sound like a bad thing.
 
 The left uses the word "populism" as a slander, the way they used "reactionary" years ago, for anything not sufficiently "progressive".
