    Yeah, please make Germany more vulnerable to Russia! We need Europe ruled by Putin who is definitely a benevolent and friendly guy and not a ruthless dictator.

      Germany vulnerable to Russia, really? Russia can barely take on Ukraine but now it’s a threat to Germany? Putting NATO missiles in Germany has more to do with US power projection than defense for Germany.

        Last I checked, Russia still had nuclear weapons. Did that change?

          I’m pretty sure they also know they would be flattened if they decide to nuke a European country

            Russia claims to have 6000 nukes. Let’s pretend they have 50 working ones. If they detonate 1 of them, will the EU really flatten them while they’re waving 49 more?

            Well as long as you’re pretty sure, I don’t think there’s anything for anyone to worry about.

            You do have the relevant experience and education when it comes to foreign relations and military strategy, right? Otherwise we might be putting our trust in the wrong person.
