Last 30 years of major conflicts through the lens of BBC' war correspondent.
Epic.

So, today the United States basically announced hot trade war on China.

Yet to see how Beijing retaliates.

That`s not growth, that`s literally the rounding error from some previous accounting trick from a Bundesminister.

We desperately need strong growth in Germany and an improved economic model that prevents a free-fall.
Fortunately there are elections coming in `25.

'Oh, but China does Electric Vehicles...'

Well...

Why do we bother?

'Huge if true' as they say.

'If you want peace, be ready for war.
If we want peace, the aggressor must lose'

Serious message. This is strategic and responsible thinking. We desperately need a shift towards Realpolitik in Europe.

Good thing that elections are coming.

Yes.

The Heart of the Matter.
