    For me it’s hard to have a positive view of her. The more I learn about the past, the more my jaw drops at how fucking ignorant our leaders were. Russia has been at war since inception till today almost nonstop, with only a few years of non aggression. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_Russia

    A quick cherry picked list that should’ve been more than enough reason to NOT SEND BILLIONS OF EUROS TO RUSSIA!!!

    1991 War in Georgia 1992 War in Transnistria (I didn’t realize it’s that old jesus…) 1994 The first Chechen war. 1999 Re-invasion of Chechnya. This one lasted until 2009, aka, started before and ended in the middle of Merkels career. Not counting the wars in cental Asia and the middle east as the west clearly doesn’t give a shit.

    There’s a lot of shit that Russia did before the 2014 invasion. The fact that these people did and continue to defend their business with Russia is fucking repulsive.
