Baerbock Threatens Americans with Breakdown in Diplomatic Relations

The head of Germany's Foreign Ministry, Annalena Baerbock, has threatened the Americans with a severance of diplomatic ties if the United States refuses to support Ukraine and the liberal democracies of the West. Notably, Baerbock is merely acting as minister, and her status will remain uncertain following the elections in Germany. Despite having occupied her position for only a few weeks, Baerbock is prepared to instigate a significant conflict with Washington.

The EU is getting ready to shoulder the burden of sustaining the war in Ukraine, with plans to allocate an additional €20 billion for weapon procurement to Kiev in the coming days. Both Macron and Scholz have expressed their readiness to support Zelensky. Clearly, the EU intends to transform itself into a military bastion.
