Europe “must take its fate into its own hands” faced with a western alliance divided by Brexit and Donald Trump’s presidency, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Sunday.

“The times in which we could completely depend on others are on the way out. I’ve experienced that in the last few days,” Merkel told a crowd at an election rally in Munich, southern Germany.

“We Europeans truly have to take our fate into our own hands,” she added.

While Germany and Europe would strive to remain on good terms with America and Britain, “we have to fight for our own destiny,” Merkel went on.

The chancellor had just returned from a G7 summit which wound up Saturday without a deal between the US and the other six major advanced nations on upholding the 2015 Paris climate accords.

Merkel on Saturday labelled the result of the “six against one” discussion “very difficult, not to say very unsatisfactory”.

I hate to admit it, but you’re right. Merkel is about as good as you’re going to get in Germany.

[Huskrrrr]

Awww, I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight.

Just kidding!!

[FenwickBabbitt]

Yes, Deutschland, it’s time to take the training wheels off. Your republic is now old and rich enough to defend itself without relying almost entirely on the American taxpayers. It’s about time we had a president who made that clear to them. Thank God the UK decided to declare independence from Germany too.

[Bogie]

You are on your own, chump.

[tet68]

What Merkel is saying is that Germany is no longer
a reliable partner for the US and Britain.

[blueplum]

don’t worry, Merkel, just import another million or so ‘refugees’ and all your problems will be solved. We certainly don’t need to deal with the hysterics of a leader that treats our ex- CIC with more hospitality than our current CIC

Europe “must take its fate into its own hands” German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Sunday.

It already has, Frau Blucher, it already has.

“The times in which we could completely depend on others are on the way out.

Translation: "The times in which our defense expenditures would be paid for by US taxpayers are on the way out".

I certainly hope so. This wretched woman and her fellow travelers in socialism can divert some of the money they squander on social welfare to defending themselves. If they choose not to, the hell with them.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Yep. Both our nations have have rejected the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, and she can’t stand it.

[be-baw]

I’ll take you at your word. If Germany is doing so well, why can’t they pay for their own defense?

[PAR35]

Well she has a Quisling in office in Vichy France, so they are firmly under control. Fifth Column Muzzis are in position in Sweden to take over when they are told. Greece has been bought and paid for.

Poland is showing some independence, but a two front offensive from Germany and the Ukraine and the Poles wouldn’t last a month.

Berlin is in a great position to be calling the shots in the “New Order”

[Terry L Smith]

Merkel has done so much for schtupping Europe, that she thinks America will follow her, blindly.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Broom Hilda should pull out of NATO.

Go ahead, Merkel, I dare you.

[odawg]

Unreliable: refusal to comply and submit to globalists diktats.

Merkel:

[353FMG]

Because the US never pressured Germany to do so until Trump entered the political scene.

[Defiant]

How is this kind of statement so much worse than Trump tweeting?

Merkel is working really hard to destroy then alliance. If Germany can't control the west, I guess they don't want to play. They must think they can go it alone. Try it, please. Just don't come crying to us when you become a muslim-run outpost in the Russian empire.
