US Congress to halt Trump’s troop withdrawal from Germany
[quote]Lawmakers in the US Congress are preparing to block
President Donald Trump's order to withdraw US troops from
Germany. It's a rare instance of the Democratic and Republican
parties working together to pass legislation.
The final version of the annual defense bill, which still needs
to be voted on, voices support for the continued presence of US
forces in Germany. And it would require an impact assessment
before any troops are removed. In July, the Pentagon announced
it would withdraw about a third of the 36,000 US troops based
here. [/quote]

Biden Halts Trump's Troop Withdrawals From Germany
[quote]President Joe Biden announced he’s halting and reversing
Trump administration foreign policy initiatives -- including
troop drawdowns in Germany and support for a Saudi-led offensive
in Yemen that turned into a humanitarian disaster -- as he
sought to boost morale at the State Department.
Biden said Thursday that he’s ordering a full Pentagon review of
the U.S. military posture worldwide. That includes freezing
former President Donald Trump’s plan to withdraw about 9,500
soldiers from Germany -- a move that stunned European allies and
generated bipartisan protest in Congress.
Biden’s vision for foreign policy stands in stark contrast to
Trump’s “America First” approach in which the former president
often shunned alliances and resisted acting against adversarial
moves taken by Russia and other countries.
“America is back,” Biden said in a speech at the State
Department, flanked by Vice President Kamala Harris and
Secretary of State Antony Blinken. “Diplomacy is back.”
Biden described U.S. alliances as “our greatest asset,” and said
the U.S. will take a firm stand in dealing with China and
Russia. He called on Russia to free democracy activist Alexey
Navalny, whose arrest has sparked protests.
The president said that he will raise the cap on refugee
admittance in the next fiscal year to 125,000 -- more than eight
times the 15,000-person limit Trump implemented during his last
year in office. Biden’s number is also an increase from the
110,000-person cap that former President Barack Obama
implemented at the end of his administration.
Even with the administration’s changes, would-be refugees will
face a long road to resettlement. Trump’s move to substantially
reduce admissions has created a years-long backlog of people
seeking safe harbor. And Trump implemented new, harsher vetting
processes, narrower eligibility requirements, and budget cuts
that increased the burden on federal agencies as they evaluate
potential candidates to grant entry.[/quote]

German foreign minister Frank Walter Steinmeier confirms what I
have written above:
HTML https://www.archyde.com/comment-on-nord-stream-2-ukraine-criticizes-steinmeier/
[quote]Then the Federal President was asked about Nord Stream 2.
The energy relations are “almost the last bridge between Russia
and Europe,” Steinmeier said. [...]
Subsequently, however, the president used a reference to German
history as an argument for his energy policy line. He pointed
out that Germany had to keep an eye on the historical dimension
and recalled the German attack on the Soviet Union in World War
II, which took place for the 80th time on June 22nd. “More than
20 million people in the former Soviet Union fell victim to the
war. This does not justify any misconduct in Russian politics
today, but we must not lose sight of the bigger picture, ”said
Steinmeier.[/quote]
In this regard, the response of the Ukrainian ambassador to
Germany, Andriy Melnyk, is just plain cringeworthy:
[quote]Melnyk accuses the Federal President of not having
explicitly mentioned the many millions of victims of the Nazi
dictatorship in Ukraine in this context.[/quote]
Germany is russophile because it is anti-National Socialism and
thus receptive to the Russian view
HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/enemies/duginism/?message=223<br
/>on World War 2 (scroll to 'Russia and Israel join forces
regarding memory politics'). Trying to paint Ukraine as yet
another victim of National Socialism just validates the view
that National Socialism is bad, which in turn validates the view
that the Soviet Union is good, as it fought against National
Socialist Germany, which in turn validates the view that Russia
is good, as it brands itself the successor state of the SU,
which in turn validates the view that Russian influence is good,
which in turn validates the view that Ukraine is bad, as it is
resisting Russian influence.
The author of the piece points at another issue with Melnyk's
argument:
[quote]Steinmeier had not explicitly mentioned the Ukrainian or
Belarusian victims, but probably wanted to include them by
referring to the “Soviet Union”, since Ukraine was part of the
Soviet Union at the time.[/quote]
Ukraine was part of the SU as the critical mass of its
population, if not wholesale fallen to Bolshevism, at least
failed to mount an effective resistance to it, thus tacitly
acquiescing to Soviet occupation. Thus, the 'Ukrainian' victims
of National Socialist Germany didn't die as 'Ukrainians' in any
meaningful sense, but as 'Soviet people', thus, once more
considering that Russia brands itself as the SU's successor
state, by extension, as Russians. So Steinmeier is correct
including all Soviet victims of National Socialist Germany on
the Russian side of history.
If Melnyk wants to effectively counter post-WW2 German
russophilia, he should first encourage his German colleagues to
view Germany's WW2 history in a positive and accordingly the SU
and Russia in a negative light. This will in turn increase
sympathy for those authentic Ukrainians
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Waffen_Grenadier_Division_of_the_SS_%281st_Galician%29<br
/>who fought the SU alongside their German comrades, as well as
their spiritual successors, who today are fighting the Russians
on the battlefields of the Donbas, continuing Hitler's
anti-Turanist struggle. Ultimately, the Germans would lose all
interest in any Nord Stream 2-kind of fuckery.
By the way, note how much Steinmeier resembles his Turanian
Untermensch-buddies
HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/human-evolution/facial-turanism/<br
/>with his flabby, degenerate face:

Connecting China and Europe for a shared future
[quote]Jointly supported by Chinese President Xi Jinping and the
leaders of Central and Eastern European countries (CEEC), the
China-CEEC cooperation has produced early headway in developing
the China-European Union partnership for peace, growth, reform
and progress of civilization, leading impetus to the overall
China-Europe cooperation.
In combating the coronavirus pandemic, China and CEE countries
responded to the challenge with solidarity, and took the lead in
anti-epidemic cooperation and economic recovery.
A promising future awaits China and CEE countries. The
cooperation will deliver a better life for the people of China
and Europe and contribute to building a community with a shared
future for mankind.[/quote]

Xi is an utter moron with no understanding of Duginism. The
Atlantic countries are the ones he should be trying to ally with
against Turandom. By instead strengthening Turandom, he is only
assisting their objective of preventing Operation Gaddafi from
succeeding.
OLD CONTENT
Our plan - what we call the Atlantic Pivot - was for the US to
keep a high troop presence in the EU so that as the US comes
over to our side via Demographic Blueshift (which by all
estimates is expected to succeed sooner than Operation Gaddafi),
we will be well-positioned to militarily crush the
Duginist-backed far-right takeover as required, thus allowing
Operation Gaddafi to complete smoothly.
Trump cutting US troops in Germany is a Duginist victory.
---
Many Germans do not trust Russians at all, still. I think at
best it could ever be is a veneer of Duginism. Could be wrong,
but that mistrust is a very strong feeling among many.
---
"mistrust"
Distrust means being unwilling to trust someone (c.f. dislike,
disrespect, etc.).
Mistrust means being willing to trust someone who doesn't
deserve to be trusted. (c.f. mistake, misplace, etc.).
Which one do you mean here?
---
Funny you brought that up I was thinking about that at work
today actually.
Distrust is what I meant. I believe many Germans have a deep
distrust of Russians. I have experienced this many times when
speaking to Germans about Putin in the past. My mother does not
trust Russians either, and my grandparents definitely did not.
