| Mar 5, 2022 at 18:13 | comment | added | gnasher729 | Michael, your comment is about one week out of date. By now it is quite clear that the whole of Germany is totally pissed off with the Russians. So pissed off, the Green Party has agreed to 100bn a year increase in defense spending, reinstating all nuclear reactors, plus increase of coal power, in order to stop buying any Russian gas. | |
