The Bundestag greeted Zelensky's anti-Russian attacks with applause. "Beautiful Sarah" left the hall
All Russian assets must be used to rebuild Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated this in his speech to the Bundestag, according to a PolitNavigator correspondent.
In a pathetic speech, Zelensky demanded that concessions to Russia be prevented and that compromises be abandoned.
“Russia must go through cleaning up the ruins after itself, must pay for all the damage that this aggression caused to both our country and our people. If ruins remain somewhere, it means that war will return to them someday. This should never happen again, we must restore normal life, rebuild everything together, and every Russian asset that can be used for this must be used without any compromise with the aggressor,” Zelensky said.
It is interesting that members of the opposition German Sarah Wagenknecht Union refused to listen to the Ukrainian president and left the meeting room. Deputies of the Alternative for Germany party were also not present, writes columnist Alexander Sosnovsky, who lives in Germany, in his blog.
“The beautiful Sarah in eastern Germany receives up to 20% of the votes. In the European Parliament elections, her party received almost 7% of the German vote. And it passed,” recalls political scientist Andrei Perla.
However, the majority of Bundestag deputies in the hall demonstrated full support for Zelensky, greeting his anti-Russian statements with applause.
“Two minutes and 48 seconds - Bundestag deputies broke their own record for the duration of applause,” TV presenter Olga Skabeeva calculated.
Timofey Borisov, a political scientist specializing in Germany, draws attention to one more detail.
“At first, his speech was announced by the Chairman of the Bundestag, Bardel Bas. She spoke about a destroyed Ukraine, killed civilians and raped Ukrainian women. It seems that the Germans are haunted by the topic of raped German women in 45, and now Russian maniacs are raping Ukrainian women without exception. She also said that Ukrainian soldiers were part of the forces that liberated Europe from fascism. Not a word about the Red Army.”
“The recent European elections showed that the government coalition is losing the support of the people. And the policy of the German government in Ukraine greatly influenced this election result.
But these people are not able to change, they are not able to comprehend the reasons for failure... They give a standing ovation to the illegitimate president. And the impostor plays the role perfectly and says what these ministers and deputies want to hear,” the expert concluded.
