Czech president Petr Pavel warned that Donald Trump’s recent comments questioning the role of Nato have damaged the alliance’s credibility more than the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, has done in several years.
Pavel, a retired Nato general and former chair of the Nato military committee, also said that Trump’s criticism of the alliance over the Iran war was “to put it mildly, unfair”.
“The moment we begin to question the alliance as a single, united entity, ready to act together and very decisively then, of course, its role is lost,” he warned.
He said that Trump ‘s criticism appeared to miss the fact that Nato is a defence alliance, and “not an alliance that will automatically help in wars waged outside its territory”.
Yes! Wtf. How do you think these far right parties are getting popular again?
I think AfD is a symptom from the old East Germany, and I think they are supported maybe even created by Russian intelligence, AfD has shown strong support for Russia, and even gathered intelligence for Russia, and worked as Russian agents. AfD is also very anti immigrant. Which is not an interest of billionaires, that generally prefer access to lots of cheap labor.
I really don’t see how the German far right is explained by German billionaires supporting them.
So yes WTF indeed are you on about?
