It seems like Germany finally has a leader who’s willing to stand up to other countries. Just imagine Scholz saying something like that.

When will Merz become Chancellor? We need Germany ASAP

The only redeeming quality this man has, is his desire for a strong Europe and defense of freedom and democracy

Fortunately Zelensky is used to dealing Russian propaganda, he was almost lured into a trap when he started repeating “I know” multiple times and Trump stated that Ukraine would lose the war.
What I want to know is was Trump reading from a teleprompter or something or did he come up with that trap himself?

It was definitely planned / staged, to the smallest detail like that moronic question about wearing a suit by a hand picked “journalist”.
A day of eternal shame for the US.

The only european leader to acknowledge this.

Eventhough it’s obvious, It’s good that a public person is making this statement

Surprised this guy is saying something I agree with.

Trumpnis already discussing the suspension or cancellation if military aid to Ukraine. He is dancing as his puppet master in the Kremlin whistles.

After having a weekend to think about it here are my conclusions. US/Russia demanded territorial connections more that the current frontline. Zelenskyy said not and now Nato is finished.

It wasn’t manufactured, at least not from the US side. People have very short memories, including how that meeting came about in the first place.

It couldn’t be avoided otherwise Zelensky would have to sit and listen to Trump’s dictate.

It’s amazing that Trump and his enablers assume that everyone else on the planet is as stupid as the American public

a big contrast to Scholz, I hope he can do more than just talk

Merz and everyone else in German politics are VERY weak.
These morons must first fix their own country before educating others.
Just today there was another car ramming attack in Mannheim, wonder when they’re going to do something to stop it!

Why would he come if he wasn’t going to sign the agreed deal – trying to change it at the last minute. This is the 3rd time doing this. Hard to strike a deal when you habitually undermine your biggest benefactor

It does appear so because this “clash” pushed the rethoric that has been in the works now for some time that Zelensky should step down. Which is ludicrous and founded in no logic or reason whatsoever. But it is one of the many bricks they used to build their bullshit arguments that they will keep using to create a narrative of distrust in Zelensky even though the guy has done nothing wrong. And if we should have learned one thing over the last 10 years it is that truth and facts do not matter to the general public. They will eat that shit up and I would not be suprised if the idiotic masses would start to put more and more pressure on their representatives to discredit Zelensky, bad mouth him and put all the blame on him. Like he is responsible for the war and he is responsible for the war not being over. Conveniently ignoring Russia’s role and responsibility in all of this.

Not just that, but over the weekend, House Speaker Johnson, is promoting the idea of Regime Change in Ukraine, so much for democracy 🤷♂️

Man, why all the posts dick sucking Friedrich Merz in the recent weeks? This guy is a power hungry, nazi celebrating populist who changes his (public) opinion like others change their underwear. Stop acting like he’s a monolith of reason just because he says he’s against Trump and the US government (when members of his very own party visited Ron DeSantis in Florida and praised him afterwards).
