The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova commented on the statement of the head of the German Foreign Ministry, Analene Berbock, about putting pressure on the United States by Germany.
"What pressure can the occupied power put on the occupying power?", Zakharova asked.
Earlier, Berbock said that Berlin would increase pressure on the Americans "so that they understand that they can lose as much as possible if they stop supporting liberal democracies in Europe".
"The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Germany still contains legal norms that include the words "occupational regime" and “occupation authorities“. Maybe she decided to end the occupation?“ - Zakharova noted on her Telegram channel.
The representative of the Russian diplomatic mission recalled that there are 30 thousand American soldiers on the territory of Germany. “What can Berlin do to counteract them?“, the diplomat added, “American nuclear weapons in Germany are not controlled by the German government“.
According to the diplomat, German business has also been “bled“, including due to the explosion of the “Nord Stream“ and “Nord Stream 2“ gas pipelines on the orders of former US President Joe Biden and his team. “Biden's liberal democracy did not spare Berbock's liberal democracy. By the way, what is happening with the investigation? The first "collapse of epochs" has already "saved" the Germans from a prosperous life. It is scary to imagine what the second one will save them from, she continued.
Zakharova noted that there are enough true patriots in Germany who understand the deep interests of their people. "But still, I feel sorry for the Germans, especially the eastern ones - not all of them deserve such a perversion. Among them there are many worthy, intelligent people, anti-fascists, true patriots who understand the deep interests of the German people," Zakharova pointed out.
"On the other hand, literally Zeitenwende means "turn of time". Maybe Berbock meant its 360°? (ed. a hint at the mistake of the German minister, who wanted to say "turn of 180 degrees")", the diplomat concluded.
