Former national security adviser John Bolton on Monday knocked Germany over its “incredibly disappointing” performance throughout Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

“I think Germany’s performance throughout this war has been incredibly disappointing,” Bolton said in an appearance on CNN’s “This Morning.”

As Russia continues its attacks on Ukraine in the nearly yearlong war, Poland is pushing to supply Kyiv with German-built Leopard tanks — but Berlin, as the weapon maker, needs to sign off on the move before the tanks are sent to a non-NATO country.

The hesitation to greenlight the tanks indicates that a “sea change” in Germany’s defense policy “needs to happen,” Bolton said.

So has ours John. The fact we are paying for it is really a disappointment.

Germany hasn’t been too happy since the pipeline sabotage. There is a lot of protests all over Europe now. We are just kept from hearing about it.

Commercial ties between countries helps ensure there will be no war.

How'd that work out for Germany?

Bolton should be made to name ANYONE in his immediate family serving in the military.

Every one else shed blood but me and my family.

None of it was wrong. The gas would still be flowing freely except for our sanctions, and that we blew up the Nordstream lines, and of course, along with the EU started the war in Ukraine.

The lesson is actually that if you want to eat at McDonalds, you cant walk in and flip the chairs, refuse to pay, and menace the cook.

You have to choose one, be a good customer, or be hostile and abusive.

They haven’t been at war with Russia since 1944.
