Why are Germany and Europe falling?

In the video above, Harald Kujat, former NATO commander-in-chief, speaking in German, says that Europeans have fallen into isolation, without support from the US or any other major power. And this is their own fault, because since 1945 they have unquestioningly supported US expansionism beyond the borders of the Warsaw Pact, thinking that the US would never leave them in the lurch. This expansion, contrary to agreements with Russia, has been like a slap in the face to Putin, just as Russia’s attempt to install nuclear attack bases in Cuba some 60 years ago was to the US. Both of the following videos, translated into Spanish, explain this, with a preliminary and final commentary by the great Hispanic influencer, Pedro Baños:

What we say here about Germany can be said, analogously, about the other EU countries, with debts exceeding 200%. But Germany is the great paradigm because it is the economic engine of Europe. And precisely for this reason, the globalist elites of Agenda 2030 have it more in their sights.
Who destroyed the gas pipeline in 2022 and why?
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) recently presented its growth forecasts for the global economy in Washington. Germany is likely to once again occupy one of the bottom spots, after negative growth in the last two years.
The main cause of its decline has been the destruction, in 2022, of the Nord Stream, which for years had been transporting Russian gas to Germany, enabling much of its booming industry. This sabotage has had disastrous repercussions on the German economy. Who was responsible? In the end, according to former German Chancellor Schroeder, those responsible were the British, in collusion with the US, the EU, and Zelensky: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fp2Fn20NtM.
The former German chancellor explains that, above all, there was a lot of guilty silence and that everyone has taken shameful advantage of the destruction: the US has imposed itself as a seller of its own gas, transporting it to Europe in special ships at a price 400% higher. This has worked well for Zelensky, because he has thus regained partial supply to Europe through his territory, and the EU, in high treason, has dealt a severe blow to the German and European economies, thus remaining faithful to globalist instructions. And how is this apparent idiocy of German politics possible? It is largely explained by the fact that they are enslaved by foreign debt in the sense that lenders, the globalist elites acting through financial institutions, manipulate the government as they please. We discussed this years ago at https://thinktanklatam.org/the-manipulation-of-the-economy-worldwide/
All of this has been kept top secret so as not to discourage German aid to Zelensky in the war in Ukraine. In other words, Europe’s executioner continues to be given weapons and money against Russia, which the mainstream media has tried to blame for the sabotage.
Not only that, but since 2022, Putin has said he is willing to renew gas supplies based on a prior agreement on reconnecting the pipeline. However, against all logic, neither Germany nor anyone else has shown any interest in this proposal. Here we see once again, in the background, the globalist black hand that is leading everything towards destruction, especially in Europe. In the US, they have tried, but Trump stopped them in their tracks.
The enslavement of governments through foreign debt
The fact that Germany may fare somewhat better next year—the federal government forecasts growth of 1.3%—is mainly due to the state investment offensive financed by loans in infrastructure and defense. However, this debt-based stimulus is not sustainable, especially since it carries the risk that state demand will raise interest rates and prices and displace private investment.
Organizations at the apex of financial and monetary power, such as the IMF and others, subject governments to their will: I will try to explain this strategy by recalling some Hollywood films that depict the classic situation of the poor man working in a mine. The rich employer (the lender), the villain of the film, with the guarantee of his daily wage, opens a line of credit for him in the village store he owns, so that he can buy his clothes, food for his family, and a little more. If he is prone to alcohol and imprudent management of his income, very soon his entire salary is collected directly by the store, and he begins to depend more and more on his employer, who has the power to take his house, based on a summary judicial process of debt compensation. Isn’t this precisely the mechanism of manipulation of governments through indebtedness?
This dependence can mean the imposition of a certain political stance, and even a series of ideologies, alienating the freedom of the government and its citizens. Added to this is the buying of influence through the corruption of some key officials.
In other words, the more indebted a government is, the more the reckless or corrupt ruler is brought to his knees. And let’s not forget that a confiscatory tax burden of almost 50% does not satisfy the hunger for money of the bureaucratic beast of the state. Behind all this are the globalist strings, which, from a secret anonymity, move the puppets of the moment. Germany is indebted at a rate of 62.4% in relation to its GNP.
The anti-capitalist ‘feeling’
Here we refer to capitalism as an open market economy, where the state maintains optimal conditions for the creation and maintenance of long-term employment. It is a pity that Germany, after its post-war economic miracle, has been forgetting all this in the last two decades. Instead of considering entrepreneurs as a source of growth, many books and television crime series caricature them as exploiters and villains. In this case, as in so many others, the ideological background of the socialist left is evident.
Instead of promoting nanotechnology and artificial intelligence as resources for productivity, they are demonized and regulated to exhaustion. Instead of giving freedom to young entrepreneurial talent, it is subjected to suffocating bureaucracy that generates thousands of regulations, compliance with which requires companies to employ unproductive people, thus lowering the competitiveness of their services.
Added to this is a latent, sometimes acute, anti-capitalist sentiment that has spread throughout Germany. In an environment of hostility towards the entrepreneurial middle class, it is precisely this class that sets in motion and keeps running the “capitalist machine” (Schumpeter). This explains the brain drain and capital flight to countries where they find support and recognition.
For Germany to return to sustainable growth, reducing the tax burden is only the first step. Looking ahead, Germany needs to regain its entrepreneurial spirit in order to relaunch technical progress. Without this, the country will continue to rank at the bottom of the IMF’s growth rankings in the coming years.
