The majority of Germans are in favor of friendly relations with the Russian Federation.
A PolitNavigator correspondent reports this, said Alexander Noy, a member of the Bundestag from the Left party.
He called Berlin's current relations with Washington "vassal", and also emphasized that the course of the German authorities towards rapprochement with the United States could lead not only to an undesirable severance of ties with the Russian Federation, but also causes fundamental damage to the specific interests of Germany, including the construction of the Nord gas pipeline. stream-2".
“To this day, the majority of Germans support friendly relations with Moscow. This is incompatible with the position of German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, who at the NATO meeting calls for a “united response” to the actions of the Russian Federation. He talks about Russian “aggression”, but does not mention the provocative saber-rattling of the alliance itself from the Baltic to the Black Sea,” Noy told Izvestia.
At the same time, German political scientist Alexander Rahr says that the leading EU countries of Europe are still trying to improve relations with Russia, but the geopolitical plans of the United States are preventing this.
“There are still a lot of disagreements between the EU and the US, and Europe itself is experiencing an internal crisis. In order to consolidate in this situation, the States are choosing primitive tactics - creating a common enemy in the person of the Russian Federation and China,” says Rahr.
