“Your country is teeming with millions of migrants who cost you 50 billion euros a year.
Let’s be realistic: even if you called us, if you surrendered and raised the white flag, we still wouldn’t come!”
LOL! What a true slap in the face to Merz.
Socialism and no borders in the EU has caused a rebellion among the citizens who are being shit on by their fat cat commie leaders, kings and queens.
I think Putin is quite sensible.
I refuse to see him as a bad guy.
I doubt this is real, but it’s so true
If Russia did invade, the question is whether the Germans would fight back or hail the Russians as Liberators.
Well, he's got 'em there...
That’s some Trumpian level trolling right there.
Who asked him?
He’s not wrong.
Well, mainly because the Soviets ran up against the Americans and denied them their chance to spread their wonderful communist empire all the way to the Atlantic, that’s why Comrade Stalin, err, Putin.
I asked Chatgpt whether Putin said this:
No. I can find no credible evidence that Vladimir Putin said or wrote this. It appears to be a fabricated quotation that has circulated online for some time and has now been repackaged to make it look connected to Friedrich Merz and the AfD’s recent election success.
There is a particularly strong clue: essentially the same eight-point quotation was circulating by March 2025, long before the September 2026 Saxony-Anhalt election result referred to in the version you received. One March 2025 discussion even has a participant asking where Putin said it, with the response that it was a German Internet joke.
I also found the nearly identical text published online in June 2026 under the headline “Putin on Germany,” but that page supplies no speech, interview, video, Kremlin transcript, date, venue, or primary source establishing that Putin actually said it. Another site subsequently labeled it “Putin’s Message to Germany, 26 June 2026,” again without providing a verifiable primary source.
Most importantly, searches of official Russian presidential material and current reporting do not turn up a Putin speech containing these lines. Meanwhile, the AfD result that the social-media introduction apparently refers to really is very recent: on September 7, 2026, the AfD won about 44% in Saxony-Anhalt, and Merz publicly reacted to the result. That makes the introduction look like someone attached an old viral fake quote to a new political event.
Some individual themes in it concern real German debates—government borrowing, infrastructure, migration costs, rail reliability, etc.—which probably makes the fabrication sound plausible. For example, Germany does have a €500 billion infrastructure investment fund, but that does not establish Putin as the author of these remarks.
Bottom line: I would regard this as falsely attributed to Putin unless someone can produce an original Russian-language Kremlin transcript or an unedited video showing him saying it.
If you’d like, I can also try to trace this quotation back to its earliest appearance in German and see who actually wrote it.
Putin’s right on most of his points.
This is propaganda AI slop. Even Putin wouldn’t address another country’s leader like that.
Germany ping
Obviously not real.
Sad that this will be believed by the majority on this thread. Mods should delete this in a heartbeat but that ain’t happening. FAKE NEWS!!!
Pootin may not have actually said it but the reasoning is sound. He has most likely thought these things.
And besides, every time you turn around the call to prayer blasts over the loudspeakers again.
LOL! Well I guess he told them! (He’s not wrong; he’s still a thug, but he’s not wrong. First tells them he has no intention of attacking them then proceeds to point out how weak they are.
“You possess neither raw materials nor energy sources. So, why should we conquer your country? “
That was always Germany’s achilles heel.
All they had was educated and skilled workers and leading scientists.
But even that is being squandered with DEI and importing millions of criminal sub morons.
