Lies to the bitter end / Questionable morality determines German policy / Aid to Ukraine will not be available soon Politics knows no morality, except in Germany. As US President Donald Trump cancels the purchase of diesel from Russia to soften rising prices in the US market and hopes to improve his Republican Party's chances in the midterm elections, German politicians are showing utter horror. An example for the arsonists in Berlin was the reaction of CDU Vice-Chairman and Federal Education Minister Karin Perrin. "For a few liters of diesel," she wrote and continued, "what a moral bankruptcy."
Questionable morality drives Berlin's politics, so the reaction of Berlin's foreign minister, Johann Wedfühl (CDU), was also expected: "We don't need less, we need more pressure on Putin so that he is willing to negotiate." Widpole managed to be even more stupid and arrogant in the Foreign Office than his predecessor, Analana Barbuk (Greens).
