Why doesn't the EU appoint such a seasoned diplomat as their chief foreign representative?
Because they don't want diplomacy, they want war, the continuation of politics by other means. And so they appoint their most venal cynical and manipulative politicians to such posts.
Notice how the people of these liberal European democracies don't get to vote on these positions. God only knows what they'd do if we let them.
I suspect the EU stalinista want war not so much for the usual imperial purposes (expansion of their wealth and power extraction surface area) but for a more immediate priority: to maintain their existing wealth and power extraction opportunities. Because their own people are turning against them, they need a war to justify (in their minds) their undemocratic totalitarian crackdown on domestic dissent. They see their end approaching and they're desperate to delay it by any means, irrespective of the damage to their own nations.
I don't think this will work, I am fairly confident their doubling down will cause more people to turn against them, but I've been wrong before.
But anyway, the point is, it is perfectly rational if you can put yourself in their shoes and numb half your brain so as to attempt to think as they do...
Kallas is not appointed by anyone in Europe. She is apppointed by the US neocons.
This is NOT about the EU vs the US: Its about a battle between two factiosn of the US oliigarchy, one of which controls ALL the EU executive brand and most of the national governments.
Is Germany 3rd time main reason for a world war in Europe and 2nd attempt to bring Russia to its knees?
What a joke.
The western psychopathic oligarchs who control the mainstream media and the politicians have succeeded to brainwash most of the population to believe every lie and narrative constructed to self implode and destroy everything they own and defend.
I don't believe the EU leaders actually want war, they want the fear of war in order to increase the centralization of power in Brussels. Militarization is a means to this. For them, the Holy Grail of course would be direct taxation to fund this spending. We'll see if they can pull it off, I kinda doubt it.
If possible, it would be great to have MEP Von der Schulenburg back on a regular basis, also to talk about what is happening specifically in Germany, about which it is difficult to find good analysis (I speak of someone living in neighboring Holland, so what happens in DE will obviously have a huge impact here, given the close economic ties.)
Thank you for all you insights. The EU' downfall does appear to fall in line with the desire by WEF and associates for social chaos on the West. What are your thoughts? It appears, however appearances can be deceiving, that global events are falling linenwith Globalists' desires? I am still not convinced that the current US admin is not working towards a digitized wallet/monetary system that similarly desires to be used as societal control systems. Global tyranny is no longer a Hollywood script. The Unites States Constitution remains the last hurdle standing in defiance of Globalist desires. We see an accelerated assault on human rights around the world, as well as every increasing legal ease attempting to drive wedges into our written and societal Constitutions in USA. Topple the Constitutions of the USA and the West falls quickly. What are your views?
All of Europe cannot produce enough materiel to keep up with Russian materiel production, and their defense budgets do not match their rhetoric. Europe cannot provide Ukraine with enough aid to “defeat” Russia, all they can do is delay the inevitable. But if Europe REALLY thought Russia would attack them, they would be on a war footing. So why the rhetoric??
Michael is good. The paradox of expecting rational reasoning from societies deep in deep impulses recalls Nietzsche : Germanism, a gruesome phenomenon and madness, rare in individuals is the rule, common in societies.
"Without significant positive impulses from government policy, we are left to ponder Germany’s economic future - which is the topic of this report. The picture is more than bleak: Many pessimists are not even aware of the most dangerous threat Germany is being exposed to, and it is a threat authored by the European Central Bank."

Thanks to the very few clear minded and brave heads like von der Schulenburg and Diesen, we still don´t have an all out Third World nuclear War.

We lost the peace in Europe and it’s time to go.
About 80 yrs ago peace was restored by Enola Gahy and Bockscar.
This was an excellent discussion and a lot of important clarifications RE diplomacy and negotiations. Thank you, Glen!

As I see it, Europe goes back to ruins, and there is no MARSHALL PLAN
NATO will trim to Atlantic Coast States
EU will disband once monarchies are relieved from office and their holdings are nationalized.
Reconstruction? By T&T all over the mess left by the neocons, the royals, and the lacays.
Then a Tripolar World prospering and complementing each other.
