The people of Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia are not impressed with irredentism and spheres of influence.
He and his fellow experts are shocked that a communist behaves like a communist
It’s very simple. When America is aimless and stupid, the rest of the world just does whatever the hell it wants to do.
Probably their inner Nazi coming out to cheer Putin.
“According to these august figures — including former Chancellors Gerhard Schröder and Helmut Schmidt — NATO and the European Union were the real aggressors, because they dared to expand into territory that belonged to Moscow’s legitimate sphere of interest.”
I have said as much here before but I question the word legitimate in this sentence. From a Russian point of view it may seem legitimate - maybe even bought and paid for but no country owns the allegiance or can demand another remain in their sphere of interest - it must be continually earned and reinforced through friendship and mutual interest not by force.

Lebensraum.
Germany fought two world wars trying to conquer Europe. They finally succeeded with the European Union. They have no argument now with Russia
You are millions. We are hordes and hordes and hordes.
Try and take us on!
Yes, we are Scythians! Yes, we are Asians -
With slanted and greedy eyes!
For you, the ages, for us a single hour.
We, like obedient slaves,
Held up a shield between two enemy races -
The Tatars and Europe!
For ages and ages your old furnace raged
And drowned out the roar of avalanches,
And Lisbon and Messina’s fall
To you was but a monstrous fairy tale!
For hundreds of years you gazed at the East,
Storing up and melting down our jewels,
And, jeering, you merely counted the days
Until your cannons you could point at us!
The time is come. Trouble beats its wings -
And every day our grudges grow,
And the day will come when every trace
Of your Paestums may vanish!
O, old world! While you still survive,
While you still suffer your sweet torture,
Come to a halt, sage as Oedipus,
Before the ancient riddle of the Sphinx!..
Russia is a Sphinx. Rejoicing, grieving,
And drenched in black blood,
It gazes, gazes, gazes at you,
With hatred and with love!..
It has been ages since you’ve loved
As our blood still loves!
You have forgotten that there is a love
That can destroy and burn!
We love all- the heat of cold numbers,
The gift of divine visions,
We understand all- sharp Gallic sense
And gloomy Teutonic genius...
We remember all- the hell of Parisian streets,
And Venetian chills,
The distant aroma of lemon groves
And the smoky towers of Cologne...
We love the flesh - its flavor and its color,
And the stifling, mortal scent of flesh...
Is it our fault if your skeleton cracks
In our heavy, tender paws?
When pulling back on the reins
Of playful, high-spirited horses,
It is our custom to break their heavy backs
And tame the stubborn slave girls...
Come to us! Leave the horrors of war,
And come to our peaceful embrace!
Before it’s too late - sheathe your old sword,
Comrades! We shall be brothers!
But if not - we have nothing to lose,
And we are not above treachery!
For ages and ages you will be cursed
By your sickly, belated offspring!
Throughout the woods and thickets
In front of pretty Europe
We will spread out! We’ll turn to you
With our Asian muzzles.
Come everyone, come to the Urals!
We’re clearing a battlefield there
Between steel machines breathing integrals
And the wild Tatar Horde!
But we are no longer your shield,
Henceforth we’ll not do battle!
As mortal battles rages we’ll watch
With our narrow eyes!
We will not lift a finger when the cruel Huns
Rummage the pockets of corpses,
Burn cities, drive cattle into churches,
And roast the meat of our white brothers!..
Come to your senses for the last time, old world!
Our barbaric lyre is calling you
One final time, to a joyous brotherly feast
To a brotherly feast of labor and of peace!
Sure there are Germans who were brought up in East Germany under control of the Soviet scum and were brainwashed in communism. But many Germans remember the ravages of the Soviet troops and the murders, rapes and thievery.
A lot of the Russian Tsars and aristocrats married German princesses. The most famous one was Catherine the Great.
Guess what? They are right.
Van Rompuy: If The Public Doesn't Want EU Expansion, 'We Do It Anyway'
Maybe after losing two world wars that Germans don't want to be dragged into a third by unaccountable Globalists.
Well they loved Hitler too.
Indeed, the percentage of Germans who don't buy into the US government propaganda about the Ukraine is about 40%. That is very encouraging.
