...many in the west are really tired of the so-called “Ukraine anchor”, which is getting harder on their economies and is more expensive to maintain every month.

The Germans have admitted that there is no more money in Europe

This was stated by German Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier during a keynote speech at Bellevue Castle, stressing that “an era of headwinds is beginning for Germany - difficult, difficult years are coming for us. Germany is in the deepest crisis since reunification,” Spigel reports.

Although on Tuesday, after visiting Kiev, he announced the transfer of two additional MARS multiple rocket launchers and four Panzerhaubitze 2000 howitzers to Ukraine, the president now claims that the world economy has weakened so much that the EU countries are no longer able to provide financial assistance to Ukraine without harming their population. It is because of this that Europe is on the verge of an energy crisis.

In his speech, Steinmeier called on citizens to prepare for further restrictions and deterioration of living standards.

The Germans have been in bed with Russia and China for decades and are directly at fault for the current crisis in Ukraine. They attempted to get the entirety of Europe dependent on Russian gas, and also instigated the refugee crisis—a tactic openly used by Russia on Poland last winter (though the Poles thwarted it).

60 Billion, which is a fraction of our spending, is not making us broke or these communists in Germany like Mama Merkel or others with direct ties to the Russian state, either ideologically (Merkel was a former Communist youth member) or financially.
