I’ve mentioned something similar in the Ukraine community discussions on Merkel, but if she knew that putin would invade and wanted to help Ukraine prepare, why was there no attempt to provide military (covert aid if needed)?

Her story never adds up, it’s like she is grasping at straws to try and somehow explain away her support for russian genocidal imperialism.

Why can’t she be honest and just openly say that she supports russian imperialism and believes it is right for russians to eliminate other nations. Schroder does it, with zero consequences.
