    Yeah… ignoring south ossetia annexation and the Crimea annexation and killings abroad using pollonium… and Putin repeatedly stating Ukraine was a mistake… who could have foreseen this outcome?

    If there was any acknowledgement of the fact it was just realpolitik, we did not care about the other stuff and hoped the trade deals would be enough… but no… no introspection whatsoever.

    A new era in Europe’s relations with Russia “regrettably” began following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, says Mrs Merkel.

    What is this even supposed to mean? I am assuming this is a direct quote.

    Whenever I hear anything from Merkel these days, for some reason I get that image from Dr. Strangelove in the war room.
