The germans are not doing enough. The germans are being too assertive, the germans thinking more about themselves. They, they want to expand the European Union, no matter what comes out of the chance or is office of a sergeant. Schultz. Somebodys got some gripe with it. Its really quite interesting. I dont think its gotten nearly enough coverage that it serves your thoughts. Are you right, peter . And whats really troubling is the mounting hysteria in germany because this is a country that oversees a very talented country. But its prone to hysteria, was prone to hysteria about russia in particular before. Well, one and again, robot russia. Before world war 2, something of the saw is re emerging today with sergeant shows as you want it. On the other day, he went to the book fair, and he told them that as the most popular nation was a great this economic power as a country in the middle of a continent, our army must become the cornerstone of defense in europe. We paid much attention to this. Germany will be the key military power in europe, largely because of the nato. Great, and if its been made, so everyone swore it, and people still imagine that the germans are like the sort of they kind of sneak past this diet. We remember from the seventys and eightys, but that doesnt mean that just because thats the way they were in the seventys and eightys doesnt mean that thats the way were going to be. They are now openly saying that we need to prepare for a conflict with russia or show that we need to prepare for a conflict with russia. And again, no one pays any attention to this. And a whole talking about europe must unite against russia and europe and i, on the german most. This is the biggest, the strongest power in europe. I see, you know, that thats the red mark that i was, that was the question i was going to be as usually does here very quickly. Because the way that a shields fox and other german officials, i sometimes wonder where germany begins and you and vice versa. And then again, i was putting up claiming that germany will spend a 100000000000 euro on rearmament the 20th century wasnt that long ago martin go . Yeah, yeah, i mean, actually im going to sort of closer to the in here. I dont think 100000000. 00 a 100 years is that much money when talking about military spending . Because remember, couple things. First of all, the military side of germany was under, under finance for right on time is also quite chaotic. So theres a lot of catching up to do. Also, they sent a lot of their kids to ukraine. So like france, theyre very much on the results when it comes to their own military. And the real world paranoia, i mean george really made me laugh. They talked about hysteria. I worked for jim one to 10 years. I know about germany, syria, to get me started on that. The real hysteria is there isnt, there is no, no, there are no good final outcomes for germany in the ukraine war. Because theyll warrant that putin is well look for some on to blame if things get worse. And what germany is trying to do is contribute to the ukrainian efforts would not be a big player. So thats why they just recently held back sending big guns which ukraines are really pissed off about. Theyre also dragging their feet about circle leopard tanks, which may or may not materialize. You know, jenny does not want to be identified as the key deal breaker in the conflict because it is afraid that russia will hit germany. And this is what part of this is designed to invent a corporal shoots. You make a massage and i think youve given great credit co shoot, said in the parliament where you go, the deputies roaring. You know for the 1st time and probably 30 is you know, a leader in germany. Ashley could say to the parliament, when you spend much more money on military spending, and not everybody went, oh no, we really should think about that. I mean, lets look at history. You know, were going to go to a, its a low baseline. However, were given history, i have to be delicate here, given history. Once the germans put their mind to something they tend to take on a life of its own here and take the hysteria. And i think thats a good word, a hysteria about whats going on in crime which should have been very avoidable. But this is george. This is a kind of a vector where we see where the germany and the you are synonymous. I mean, the joints mark, everybody adored in germany, and they accepted the you or the euro because it was the replacement for the deutsche mark. And so you know that this is essentially a pro german agenda with and george with expansion. Well, obviously these are for german goods to go to, i mean, this is a pattern from the 20th century before the 1st and 2nd world war. Go ahead. Yes it is. And its very interesting. The german is now pushing for this expansion of the you and why the germans are aware that its not going to be easy to get any countries into the, you know, less. I can create that kind of a de facto, you know, just by having Association Agreements and so on. So now im pushing for georgia and moldova, now to be inside the you, why are they doing this . Well, other than the george and well go very useful as a weapon against russia. Everything that, you know, sergeant shoot, said, was about how do we mobilize against russia. Russia is the of, you know, this is, you know, we are our values ah, alien to run it. But he was projecting on to put in is defining himself in opposition to the nature rather than we, we, europeans, under german leadership defining ourselves in opposition to weve heard this before. Exactly. Thats why its so striking that theres this kind of talk which is very different from the talk in germany, in the 1970. This is much, much the, the old style germany. And again, you have to go back to 1990. When there were a lot of people concerned about german reunification, including the United Kingdom and france, and john say almost goal. He wrote a letter to all of the leaders of the wells and said, chance will only piece will emanate from german song. And i guess people were reassured, sold off by that last few months later, germany went ahead recognize croatia, leukemia. But this is late. Germanys quite clever in the way it plays the game any it wants to present itself on the one hand as well. Really, you know, you know, you know, what we say goes on the other. Well, you know, we have a historic responsibility with a trouble and we dont like war. And really we go, you know, we dont want to send these particular weapons, but they do send this weapons. They are getting involved in ukraine, all the historic president s. They are very actively involved in great training. Your grades. I mean, i was going back to the 1940 s when theyre actually actively trading ukrainians. Well, and also as a sidebar here. Oh it is. So in germany, reparations for the 2nd world war i just separate b, y. And the only meant the ball this, i think, you know, what were saying here is true. But what does washington think of all of this . You know, having a strong germany is ok to a certain extent promised germany doesnt challenge american gemini in europe. And this whole situation with ukraine has solidified america with gemini as the expensive europeans, which of course, we all know, but so this germany is angling for repositioning itself in europe. It still has to be under the aspect of washington control box. Well, does it, i mean, i was in a nice done in 2008 on a french general that told me the big thinking from france was to create a european pillar with in nature. And i wonder whether germany isnt its just now to soldier. Ahead to give the palm with a new military spending bonanza, you know, 100000000. 01 shot and about 70000000000. 00 a year, which is more or less in line with britain. France. I wonder whether this is a way of signaling to america. Look, we are going to go ahead. We are going to go to shoot me. Probably a few other Member States will join us in any excursions around the world that we like to get involved in. You know, a bit of the dabbling and a few conflicts in the middle east. Maybe a bit of a few boat patrols off the coast of libya. The conflict in africa, you know, the sort of thing is, is germany forming by default. And he, you are me because the federalists in brussels. I was there for 10 years. It was pretty boring. I can tell you. For 10 years all i heard was over and over again. You know, we needed to you army and macaroni push this since you crime they did the entropy ins count for me or any on me. They cant decide on budget. They cant decide who runs it. Is it some bureaucrat in brussels . Usually i can see if there is a mistake, you know, the germans, i think by default by going ahead with this plan, ill probably signaling that hey, we can, how many you are me. But it will be an informal one lent by the germans for, for doing their peacekeeping or humanitarian work around the world and a, be a few people to join it like romanians indicated they would be italian spanish and maybe the french as well. And it will be coney, you army by default, but it wont be a brussels you on. Itll be one led by germany, which is the horrible nightmares of brussels, the last 30 years. You know, come out to you on me, which isnt led by a germany in anton also nightmare forgetful german people. Lot of people in germany are really uncomfortable. About any kind of Strong Military force around the world, you know, throwing its way to run. And i was in, when i was in afghanistan, i spent a day with the german army on the toughest stump afghanistan border. And the, you know, general of best i talking to me about, you know, may be germany at one point in the future, doing its own thing around the world with these friendships. You know, so weve got all this to look for to my guess is that germany will forge ahead with the so called you army, which is going to cause all sorts of problems. Politically, within europe, its going to cause problems with the americans, because then you know what we do about nato. Does that still have it . So its, its, its cloud, its influence around the world with europeans on board. You know, and im, i would guess i would put a wager the next conflict of this so called new you or me gets involved in the brussels will step up the last moment and convince the germans to put an e, u on band all the soldiers that colon the you are me anyway. I dont know, i gotta jump in here. Were going to go to a short break after that chopper book, it in order specialists and well, well stay with our aah. Oh when i went to the wrong one, i just dont know any world. Yes. To shave out disdain because the african and engagement equals the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. With nobody see that there was the word jesus, you did . Yes it was. He just open the window door. William. Mm hm. Mm hm. And just where does the door . National know porter dumped a snare thatll go up. Dont cheat his must. So must all massive ovals testimony, heart go on that much enough. Please conceal must up on a thumb candle vehicle. I just wanted to follow up to the shell spot for the move. Move should be what you move decides im lash sale is that only the city so still willing, given enough bustle is wondering if you didnt want you to you, you put on the really, you took a symbol and you talk all over the course. Of course, we didnt actually miss that. Yes, i said i will let mr. Willard and actually we still, you still hold with, im not a problem with those on almost lost i was going to the bus not as must all i need a yes my through on the when you click on this will it about to get all the when you either some of ship issues just most welcome to the moon nation. I am will not on the meet all. So the q b emilio on more than for the on, with all of the all to get an idea of progressing canadian. If youre not happy with the dumps, obviously interested, you must form your monkey mean spoke to them. Each process that you always ask is more than they live at. Now when you look on the blood up or a new book like ah, i dont know. I dont know if if you didnt, you might have been a machine at all. But if i told her muster, but i still calmly, but i was in your leash that was a star. A really nice night, penny, too big of a process like this. I live with been your boy, you know, i shall still. It was of his i saw that what he will because also what is lucy blair take a look still as was i should step a chimney, which i think you placed a little bit to which i think you must you to have to work as well. Well start with the distributor. Weve got dish dish out of toilet you little jury. Youll look additionally why not glad youre not short. They will say its because he was more upset when you do a lot. You misquote. Just as a white go occlusal guard the finishes, you should just have to walk all the way. So, but if you will, in yet a feature to one that i me good off now to music, what you will get a you guy will show this just go up all malden gardenia. We faced with naturally scott, a little pull causal. Let us alone mush only been to sit on a show you show them so be letting me to lucy to let you put the log on the sheet. It is lee from what you know slip of the month about on went to the mock about the when you look at what all the essentials look like. Must paulina mean you came in the machine just a bit. I was la rychlik. I thought i knew i wished emotional informational as i put almost a w sold out on the other one. When you mores with them, they will close up with mr. On the what was in your over the hill. Madison at somebody will give you complete the motion with along with welcome back to class that were all things considered. Peter well this is the home addition remind you were discussing some real meals. Ah right, lets go back to georgia, budapest here. You like to react to what martin had to say before we went to the break . Well, i think it is going to be a delegation of responsibilities. I think the, the americans will be quite happy to see germany, ron european, branch of nature, and as father, what kind of global nature, which i think is what the United States will like to create. The americans will focus on the far east as a containment of china. America can be everywhere the whole time. So i think thats why i think germany will be very useful as america, loyal tenants in europe and, but its interestingly its, its kind of the soviet nightmare from the 960. 00, which is there were suspected that some i went to whats west germany becomes very young and it basically will take over nato and they, you know, essentially america will be doing germanys bidding on the slime. All of them are joe with americas bidding, or some combination of the to learn. I mean, history still intrudes here. I mean, like i mentioned, this is a sidebar. Poland is suing germany for reparation. The 2nd world war and then when we hear them, germany, maybe im putting some tank battalion in the baltic. Republics. I mean, those of us that know history and its like, wow, it didnt take that long for a certain pattern to read, to repeat itself here. Its not the having a European Army run by the germans. Its, theres a lot of people swallowing very hard. Ok. I mean, there, its still, there are some people still alive . Remembering that conflict, i dont think its i dont think you can do the face slip that easy. Go ahead. Yeah, but i think the real world is that we go over this line of simply humanitarian work or 8 work around the world and we start getting small shipments conflicts. I mean, the point that george made about americans of nature and china, joan was want to be those, well, they want to be and right to taiwan, as well as theyve indicated that. And so this starts to ring, alarm bells, when we talk about russia, you know, we should forget history. We shouldnt forget the most politicians of shows, era, sil, of a huge, huge complex about what happened in russia. They got their asses kicked. I mean, really kicked in, not just inside grand, but before moscow as well. You know, of what the world will serious bbc is. Very good. So i think we should, we should always remember that i think the german elite keep changing the minds that keep jumping above all over the place woman if they want to be gung ho next minute, they want us to retract and they dont really know how to handle the situation they, i think the real worry, you know, is that this, this coalition government, which is incredibly an experience which has green su, seem to be bang in the war drum. The same greens, who in the eightys campaign against nato campaign against the, the german army expanding and now theyve, theyre the ones who want to bump that out of ukraine. Theres a lot of confusion and i think come, we need a sobriety. When we talk about germany and, and, and i dont know where that comes from, but some, lets see how things pan out i, i think i think there will be a certain restraint on the germans side or in the coming weeks. And we see the next move by putin in ukraine. You know, i dont see germany as the best. The warmongers, as the ones are really champion tempting any conflict as we worry. They dont have a good history on that. Even recently, they still, you know, one of the things, its not mentioned about German Military complex. It is really badly organized and has a lot of corruption. You know, so whatever we we, we expect to happen isnt gonna happen very quickly, which will about ukraine when we talk about arming anything around the world. I think the European Union is going to step in, i think is going to be a huge debate now in european parliament. Dont love the only parliament in the world that doesnt try to print. A proposed roughly deflation is a disney world. I think were going to have a debate in brussels and i think you are going to see the emergence of some sort of you on the probably with germany leading because tell me what was on you. Well hey, we put the most money into the pot. You know, and thats always been the argument, you know, it would be the same. And i think thats the reason why the company is magic number of a 100000000000 and were going be on the 2 percent. Im national g to be budget because, you know, there is the signal this other Member States, hey, if you do the same thing, then you could become part of a club. And, you know, weve got a few ideas about place who let to go in the world, you know, and maybe even the french would like to turn to the germans and say, hey, we got some real problems in some rich colonies in france. We kicked us out like molly, you know, perhaps you could help with that. You can see the picture on it. You just look just look where rushes filled, the vacuum in africa. And you can see where german planners, you know, i mean, there was a report in the German Parliament about 2 or 3 years ago, read about it, which said, we must do more independently around the world with our military. That should be worrying to, of your use or it started george. Or i do want to switch gears here a little bit. George, it, at the, the reaction western reactions, the Russian Special but military operation. Ukraine was through 2 things. Break the back of the russian economy and isolate russia, the global stake. Well, number one, economy is that initial hit, but its absorb the sanctions. I can tell our audience here. Most russians are not aware of sanctions on there. Ok. Thats how people feel. Second, one, isolating rush on the global stage. Thats now working out too well. Also, george, the global south is basically shrugged it off as a european problem. Even if you look at some of the major countries in the global south actually saying, well, but, you know, the west, you created this, you fix it. Why should we get on board . And, and because europe has gone down this idiot, it Energy Policy and you just say the psychotic. As far as i can see, ok, and everyone will take the large se, lets take the slack. Why not keep energy, make you rich. Its going to make us rich here. Ok, so i mean, so why dont we put in his foreign minister and they have plenty of people to meet. And you know, as we have the General Assembly in the United Nations General Assembly, lot of people want to talk to the russians. Is that plan of isolation is physic work. And george, that is quite remarkable. And this russia, that is a demonized, you know, we dont want that. His theory in germany, but its a history throughout europe in the United States. And every media store you read russia is isolate that protein facing increasing the amount of isolation. So he goes to some and he has meetings with a very warm meeting is a meeting with, again, a very warm and then want talking about cooperation. All the different projects that they are going to be working on. You know, the trade agreements that they get to sign this just know in anything in there. I think it was russia to, i want the, you know, the western and here to russia. And thats why, you know, you really feel the west is just completely living in its own delusional world and not realizing thats the rest of the world. You know, this is, you know, the most populous nations of the war to not look at one russia and ukraine in the way that the western countries, they a lot of sympathy for russia. And they have concerns due to lack of knowledge that they have concerns. And obviously everyone has concerns about a war. Lets dragging on, seemingly inclusively. But they regard russia as a partner. And thats something that the west is completely failed to take on board. And it is really the result of long standing soviet and then russian diplomacy that they have very solid relations with many of the emerging countries in the world. And its interesting, i mean, obviously the conflict in ukraine is front and center and its, its a vector which everyone decides against condemn, whatever. But, you know, i look at, in a broader sense that there is, theres a rejection of this roles based order, which i have no idea what that means. No one really does. And i would just say go even further. Western western values and culture, its more and more alien to most of the world. This walk is post modernism. This is something that most people, the world cant make heads or tails. Maybe theyll see like some kind of chuckle, but thats something that most of the world has no like, no interest in embracing at all. Its again a west west is very alien to most of the world. Yeah, and i think that the real world is to, is the people around the world come home to fake this whole ideology has become people in western countries dont even believe anymore in those western values. Last few days in britain ive been short to see on social media a number of people who have been arrested for protesting the queens funeral. Sometimes just with a white piece of paper saying, my king, you know, weve been coming to town in states in the west and it wanted me to buy millimeter. You know salamis slice by salamis, light is happening, and im so its very difficult for people to take the grand will. Seriously. If we keep on bang on this john bout democracy in western values. Anita, particularly when were funded to a large extent near nancy groups to do some really awful works. Annual media just become so polarized and so it just, it just emits, you know, the media now just admits the stories, but he doesnt want to to, to run which, which, which conflict with narrative and run the stories that those wants. What just yesterday we saw reports from france, 24 of this huge mass grave, supposedly discovered by ukraine and so does. But if you dig a little bit deeper, look into it. It actually wasnt a mass grave. It was a graveyard. I had, you know, when people were buried in coffins ill, you know, names of own crosses, you know. And but, you know, there are a few western germans were invited along to film it and to dish out the moral tutelage to us all, you know, and i wonder how long is it going a lot, one, how long you know, people are actually going to swallow this nonsense, weve got a g 20 meeting coming up very soon, which i suspect who will attend. But most western leaders will not attend themselves. Theyll send dignitaries or envoys or whatever. You know, this, im in the middle of people dropping dead freezing to death in the u. K. For example, during winter i think, you know, media i can see in britain is already johnny and are asking some harder and harder questions than else. Then ill staying at what is really the justification of this war. And i just recently, a british tabloid right . Huge page where it compared all the sanctions that we impose on russia. But the russians were having a cheaper food, cheaper energy, you know, and people have boasting on social media. Theyre running up boss all day long, you know, and in britain, you know, weve literally almost become a 3rd world country. Its not a joke. You know, people can afford to eat animal and this, this slogan on social media. Heat or eat is going to be a hash tag. Harrison isnt already, you know, and people are going to start asking more more questions. And when we boycott that g 20 meeting, i think theres going to be a turn around in western opinion because a lot in on this program, we always ask questions here as why people watch its all right. When we run out of time on my gets america channel, thats what i think our viewers for watching us here are you see you next time . Remember . Ah, when i was showing wrong when i just dont hold any world yet to see how this thing becomes the advocate and engagement, it was the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. Ah ah, the seas for 11th grade, we learned that National Socialism or nazis were good. They were heroes of you. Craig, all correspondence uncovers nationalists propaganda in School Textbooks as he travels to the city of scott boss, can ukraines got fun region for the controlled by bush and lead forces. Nato admit it had been planning to expand its military presence along russias borders. Years ago before the war and ukraine begun completely ignoring moscows red lines. A betrayal of the off
