I know that there is very likely something very obvious that I have missed. Looking on the popular, biased, factually-based wikipedia.org and I quote..

21st century

"Through 2012, Germany's economy continued to be stronger relative to local neighbouring nations.[128] In 2023, Germany experienced economic difficulties as a result of the closure of Russian natural gas resources due to the western sanctions against the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[129]"

It's like nothing happened between 2012 -2023.

its kind of funny ( well, its not, being sarcastic) Theres like an attack on the moral of russian gas when no one questions saudi oil... and its no surprise, civilizartions only thrive depending on the energy available, so, its not a surprise Germany was the EU engine because of this deals they had.. American LG lobby is attacking Germany and EU for at least 5 years no.. North Stream 2 is the thread to follow

But the media managed to dumb the mass of the german people down to a level where it's impossible argueing about this. Moral has set in place where You usually needed brain cells

It's the same agenda. That's why I moved to the very south of Spain. I couldn't stand this anymore. People here are really based and defend their traditions
