Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Germany “swallowed” the attacks of its “allies” due to the lack of sovereignty and insufficient training of some leadership representatives. His words at the meeting with young scientists are quoted as follows: TASS.
According to Putin, European countries are either cutting off their own cheap energy supplies or their American allies are doing this for political reasons.
The Russian leader also spoke about the undermining of Nord Streams and the blocking of gas pipelines passing through its territory by Poland and Ukraine.
Putin noted that Ukrainian officials “received money from Europe for weapons, pensions, social benefits and salaries, but the gas they needed from Russia was cut off.”
“And the Germans swallow all this because they have nothing? Sovereignty. And some government leaders appear to lack sufficient professional training to make quality professional decisions. Celebrities, the whole world is laughing at them. “I won’t name names now, but the whole world is really laughing,” said the president of the Russian Federation.
