Germany must re-embrace America, Europe | Washington Examiner

President Trump has been pointedly criticized for putting pressure on America’s European allies. Critics have even insinuated that he is endangering the alliance.
Yet it is Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Germany that has abandoned Europe and America. And she needs to bring her nation back to the fold.
Merkel’s Germany has largely aligned itself with tyrannical regimes in authoritarian Russia, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Communist China. Her country’s vulgar, pacifist foreign policy, coupled with an addiction to Russian gas, endangers Europe and struggling democracies seeking to stymie Russian President Vladimir Putin’s jingoism.
