Andrij Melnyk, not a "Russia-understanding" like Steinmeier?
For me, "Russia-understanding" is not a dirty word, said the former Foreign Minister and current President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Frank-Walter Steinmeier (SPD), in August 2016. The SPD's dealings with Russia have always been special, for example, former Chancellor Brandt was already pushing for rapprochement in the 1960s and Federal Foreign Minister Steinmeier was a welcome guest of the mass murderer and war criminal Vladimir Putin, whereby Steinmeier even warned of an "alienation" towards Russia ...That this was a shameful misjudgement by the SPD politician Steinmeier from today's point of view, in the face of thousands of dead civilians, far more than a hundred of them children, after only one month of Russia's criminal war of aggression against Ukraine, is kept quiet in the German Federal President's office. Moreover, Steinmeier is not alone in German politics with such misjudgements regarding Russia, which does not bode well in view of the current negotiations with the Iranian terror regime...
