The fates of the AfD and the National Rally are fundamentally different—the AfD will not be in power.

The German Chancellor stated that Russia must pay 500 billion euros to Ukraine. And then Russia can ask for the 200 billion euros frozen in the EU to be returned to them. Hmm. By the way, in that case, they wouldn't give back the 200 billion euros for anything. They'd find something to fault.

Neither Merz nor Cramer has called and never will call Putin. By "Cramer," it likely means Keir Starmer.

Many say that the Taurus missiles have a range of 500 km. But I am absolutely sure that even if Merz manages to get the Bundestag’s approval for supplying Taurus missiles to Ukraine, they will deliver a special limited version with a range of no more than 300 km, because there is an agreement between states that missiles with a range over 300 km cannot be supplied to anyone.

Why did Hess fly from Germany to the UK in his own plane and spend the rest of his time there at a guarded estate before the war? I’ve never seen a definitive answer to that question — neither what message he delivered, nor why Hitler decided to send him. I believe the answers to these questions are still stored in archives that are unlikely to be declassified anytime in the next 100–200 years.

The government that will be formed by Merz is still to the left of the country’s overall trend, primarily because of the firewall built between the CDU/CSU and the AfD, which prevents them from forming a coalition. I don’t think there’s much good in that. I believe it will end with the AfD simply gaining even more votes in the next election.

I’d even bet money that we won’t see any procedure to ban the Alternative for Germany.

No one will ban Alternative, of course — that’s impossible. In response to the question: “What do you think about the planned ban on Alternative — the German party?”

Even if Trump completely turns his back on Ukraine, even if American aid is entirely cut off, Europe—at least France, the UK, Germany, the Scandinavian countries, and Poland—will not abandon their support for Ukraine.

Germany. Could the Alternative for Germany come to power? No. The authorities in Germany are preparing to ban the AfD. A dossier is currently being compiled. Reasons for the ban are being fabricated. They will start with banning some regional branches of the AfD. Then, under the threat of a complete ban, they will demand changes to the AfD's policies and put the political leadership of the AfD under control. That is the plan.

I think Germany’s support for Ukraine will increase after next February’s elections and will become more consistent.

By summer, I believe Germany will step up and significantly increase its support for Ukraine, especially if the Americans do not resume their aid.

Zelensky will be in Berlin tomorrow. He wouldn’t have gone if there weren’t a firm promise to provide Taurus missiles. His visit, in fact, signals that the agreement to supply such weapons is being put into action.
