Today German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier will be most probably re-elected. The person has his image of the "highest moral instance" in Germany - and is one of the most strong supporters of Russian aggression(s). Let me bring some examples (THREAD)
In August 2016, 2 years after start of Russian war on Ukraine, than German Foreign Minister Steinmeier visited Russian Yekaterinburg and hold his speech on continuation of "Dialog" with Russia and "hand-on-hand cooperation" with Russia in Syria - and this after mass bombardments!
In June 2016, Steinmeier has fiercely attacked Nato, claiming that Nato solidarity damages security in Eastern Europe. This was a clear betrayal on our Baltic and Central European allies who were threatened by Russia.
In Ukraine, Steinmeier is mostly known as an author of infamous "Steinmeier formula" - the roadmap for rush elections in Russia-occupied territories of Ukraine which many Ukrainians see as a massive threat for Ukrainian sovereignty.
Already as a President, Steinmeier defended NordStream2 pipeline with arguments, it is "one of the last bridges to Russia" and the Germany's responsibility for WWII. With this arguement, he totally excluded Ukraine from WWII victims list, also Ukrainian Jews killed in Holocaust.
After all, Steinmeier is a 100% Schröder's asset. Schröder was Steinmeier's political mentor. Steinmeier was the head of Schröder's personal office, was promoted by Schröder further within the party. Schröder's Russia connections is a part of political setting of Steinmeier. END
