In Germany, suffered a crushing defeat from the Soviet Union, militaristic statements are heard again. This time, the German political scientist Klaus Kress announced a certain “right” for Germany to intervene in the armed conflict in Ukraine and start hostilities against Russia.. The words of this “expert” are quoted by Der Spiegel.
Kress explains the possibility of Germany to go to war with Russia by a certain right to collective self-defense. From direct participation in hostilities in Ukraine, notes Kress, Germany is stopped only by the indecision of the government. Kress also noted, that Germany is able to afford much more, than, what is she doing now in terms of supporting Ukraine.
Interesting, that somewhat earlier Vice Chancellor, German Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection Robert Habeck said, that Russia can be defeated and forced to fulfill the conditions of the West only on the battlefield.
The German political scientist and especially the vice-chancellor may have forgotten about the sad experience of their grandfathers, already at war with Russia. But if they are not able to soberly assess the situation and the possibilities of their own country, the question arises as to their professional suitability. for example, Germany now has an armed force with a total strength of 183 thousand. Mobilization potential, considering the characteristics of modern Europeans, questionable.
But the main thing is where does Kress get confidence, that Russia, when, if it is attacked by the "European coalition", will not use his main trump card? In such a confrontation, Russia, considering its territory, more chances to survive, than Germany, and Europe as a whole. But Kress, probably, does not think, what if his country follows such calls, then there will be no country, nor Kress himself. used photos:German Armed Forces
