OK.
What Merkel said only reflects what Trump and this article says, they can't fully count on the US. Mr. Gabriel is not on her, but on her opponent's party. Germany actually approved gay marriage, no way they are further right on social issues, no way Merkel is cosier with Russia than Mr. Trump. And environmentalism as an example how Germany is further right than the US is plain ridiculous, especially coming from a right-wing outlet probably doubting climate change and the Paris accord.
Sorry, but this is a lousy, badly researched piece. Not even the German translations are corrrect. Nothing is. Absurd, absurd.
Oh, and btw. if there's so much fear of a Fourth Reich, why would Trump insist Germany spends more on its military. Don't weaponize the threat. AS an European, this Anti-Europeanism coming out of the US right now really annoys me.
Germany is already moving forward trying to form an EU army. The fact you are a European just means you are so deep into this fourth Reich that you miss the obvious.
Why does Merkel want an EU army?
The whole EU is massive issue for the world and needs to be addressed.
