Did Germany Just Officially Declare War On Russia?

Illustrative Image

Although Berlin holds the historical responsibility for invading Russia and killing nearly 30 million of its citizens, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock bluntly declared war on Moscow.

Written by Drago Bosnic, independent geopolitical and military analyst

During a debate at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock bluntly stated that Germany and its allies are at war with Russia. The unexpected admission, although essentially true, is quite shocking given the fact that many Western officials have been insisting they aren’t directly involved in the conflict with Moscow. Baerbock made the statement during a discussion over sending “Leopard 2” heavy tanks to the Kiev regime. Most mainstream media conveniently ignored her words, but numerous experts were alarmed and warned that Berlin just essentially declared war on Russia.

This stands in stark contrast to claims of other German officials who have been extremely careful with their statements for nearly a year, insisting that their country is not directly involved in the Ukrainian conflict and citing uncontrollable escalation as their primary concern. However, this official stance is now in serious question, as one of the country’s top officials just effectively nullified all of their efforts. Annalena Baerbock started her statement at PACE with the following:

“And therefore I’ve said already in the last days – yes, we have to do more to defend Ukraine. Yes, we have to do more also on tanks. But the most important and the crucial part is that we do it together and that we do not do the blame game in Europe, because we are fighting a war against Russia and not against each other.”

Ironically, Chancellor Olaf Scholz and his now former defense minister Christine Lambrecht have been accused of being “weak” on arming the Neo-Nazi junta. They have frequently insisted that it would be dangerous to get more directly involved in NATO’s proxy war against Russia. However, it seems that the much more hawkish Baerbock is willing to say the quiet part out loud. Moscow immediately reacted to the comments, with Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova saying this is yet another proof that the political West was planning a war on Russia for quite some time now.

“If we add this to Merkel’s revelations that they were strengthening Ukraine and did not count on the Minsk agreements, then we are talking about a war against Russia that was planned in advance. Don’t say later that we didn’t warn you,” Zakharova said.

Baerbock’s comments come on the heels of nearly a year of direct Russophobic narrative, including openly declared plans for war with Russia. In mid-November, Der Spiegel published leaked German Defense Ministry documents, revealing that the Bundeswehr is preparing for war with Russia. The secret draft titled “Operational guidelines for the Armed Forces” was authored by none other than the German Chief of Staff, General Eberhard Zorn himself. He stressed the need for a “mega-reform” of the German military and clearly identified Russia as an “immediate threat”.

The claim makes little sense, as Germany is now over 1,500 km away from Russia, with Belarus, Poland and Ukraine standing between the two countries. While such assertions made some sense at the height of the (First) Cold War, when the Soviet Union had over half a million soldiers stationed in East Germany alone (in addition to other Warsaw Pact member states), the situation is effectively reversed nowadays. NATO is the one encroaching on Russia’s western borders, with the crawling expansion including coups and other interventions in various Eastern European and post-Soviet states. After decades of this creeping aggression and Moscow’s futile attempts to build a comprehensive partnership with the political West, Russia was forced to launch its counteroffensive.

Back in early March, the German government announced a dramatic increase in defense spending, including a €100 billion budget for the Bundeswehr, essentially double in comparison to 2021. Although this will inevitably put additional pressure on the already struggling German economy, ravaged by the sanctions boomerang from its failed economic siege of Russia, Berlin’s suicidal subservience to Washington DC seems to take precedence. Much of Germany’s prosperity was based on access to cheap Russian energy, now a thing of the past thanks to Berlin’s resurgent Russophobia.

In addition, Germany also uniquely holds historical responsibility on a scale virtually no other country in the world does, especially towards Russia. During the Second World War, it launched a brutal invasion of the Soviet Union, killing nearly 30 million people and destroying virtually everything in its path. Worse yet, after approximately 80 years of denazification in the aftermath of its WWII defeat, Berlin still decided to support the Neo-Nazi junta in Kiev, effectively renouncing its own official postwar political position. This also includes German weapons that are killing Russians, both soldiers and civilians.

Alarmed by the dramatic shift in rhetoric, many in Germany are already pointing out the fact that the country is repeating the same historical mistake by antagonizing Russia. Petr Bystron, an AfD (Alternative for Germany) member of the German Parliament, reminded his colleagues in the Bundestag of the consequences of sending German tanks to fight Russia in Ukraine:

“It’s an interesting approach you’re taking here. German tanks against Russia in Ukraine. By the way, your grandfathers have already tried to do it then with the Melnyks and Banderas [Ukrainian Nazi collaborators during WWII] and what was the result? Untold suffering, millions of deaths on both sides, and in the end, Russian tanks here in Berlin. And two of them are still here, in front of the Bundestag. You should pass by them every morning and remember it!”

It’s probably not technically a declaration of war, but it’s close. Frau Baerbock is known in Germany to be a major (I don’t want to say moron) less than intelligent person. She’s also a war-monger, from among the WEF’s young leaders. Her job is to promote war with Russia. A majority of Germans is strictly against the war; polls indeed indicated that a large portion of the German society would rather fight for Russia than against. Baerbock infamously stated with respect to the war in Ukraine, that she didn’t care even about the opinion of those who voted for her. Let alone anybody else’s. Alas, Germany, in terms of its foreign policy for sure, isn’t a sovereign country. Chancellor Scholz will try to delay arms deliveries but doesn’t block them. BTW, the German “health” minister Lauterbach made a similar statement a couple of months ago.

“Back in early March, the German government announced a dramatic increase in defense spending, including a €100 billion budget for the Bundeswehr, essentially double in comparison to 2021” That is not quite correct. The € 100 billion are in addition to the current € 50 billion. So, we’re actually talking about € 150 billion. The incoming Kriegsminister has asked for an increase to € 300 billion. Historical, mistorical… it’s insanity. The entity called Germany today seems little more than a footstall for NATO powers, indeed the same seapowers that conjured Hitler and the 3rd Reich. Sadly, the aim is the same: to have Germany and Russia ravage each other. Me must do all to stop that.

Hopefully she gets blown away soon

Nose, Nose

She deserves more “attention” than to just “get blown away”. At this point, that would be much too easy on her.

Its the foreign minister so yes it is a declaration of war. Especially as no one at a high level of government contradicted it. Politicians in high office don’t say things by accident these speeches are scripted and vetted.

Baerbock doesn’t represent in any way the German society , though this society is to blame to have made it possible for this terrible person to get such sensible position in the German diplomacy. Considering however , Germany is actually nothing more than a vasall state , there is no need to fear the words of Baerbock. Germany can’t declare war against Russia , they must ask first their masters , and the masters have their own problems with such declarations.

If German majority is silent and not protesting, Baerbock represents German society quite good. I think it will be to late to protest when nuclear bombs drop on the EU and USA.

Mark Dankof

The German government couldn’t find its hind end with both hands. They have no idea what war is generally or what war with Russia would mean specifically. They’re being led by the nose by these New World Order idiots in Washington who will get their own people killed, along with average American and European kids if they’re not stopped.

Is that those with big nose?

Russia should ask US foreign minister Austin if it is allowed to bomb Germany after Mrs Baerbocks statement of war. Either she resigns or she declares WW III. Foolish girl.

Legally it’s declaration of war and Europe and its citizens are clueless what is going on. No wonder SS Germany shut RT down. Democracy at its finest!

Rothschilds wanted WW1 and WW2 and got it both. Now Rothschilds want WW3 and they want it nuclear.. and they will get it as West sheeples are distracted, brainwashed and tired by (Rotschild’s) media and (Soros’s) NGO. All financed by Ponzi scheme of (Rotschild’s) central banks. BTW the main culprit here are not “Elites” or “nazis” or “politics” or “prestitutes” as Southfront repeats over and over , the main culrpit are western brainwashed ordinary citizens who still think that this is not serious that nuclear war will never happen end so on and who cares about their own jobs, mortgages and entertainment. It is quite opposite WE ARE ALREADY in WW3. Compare it with WW2 early stages, they were very similar Just for your information, early stages of WW2 were nicknamed Twilight War or Phoney War as barely nothing happened. But it escalated quickly, isn’t it. The same is going on Ukraine, first tactical nuke and all the hell break loose.

Baerbock is a role played by an actor and there are no real elections in Germany. It remains to be seen who are Baerbocks masters and their intentions.

What is more dangerous than thinking you are at war, is thinking it can won when it can’t. As mankind moves toward WW III it ignores the warnings of history. https://patternofhistory.wordpress.com/
