NOURNEWS - The equations behind the curtain of power in the Germanic land have always been complicated. On the one hand, this complexity is the result of the boundless desire of German politicians to lead Europe, and on the other hand, the conflict of interests of traditional parties, especially the Christian Democratic and Social Democratic parties. These days, in the midst of the war in Ukraine, the name of a German politician is frequently heard in the media, and she is none other than Ursula von der Leyen, the head of the European Commission, who was elected to this position on July 16, 2019, and with the dreams of becoming "Thatcher" or "Merkel". Von der Leyen is considered one of the pillars of support of the Zelenskiy government in the war in Ukraine, and when the table for peace negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow was about to be set in recent months, she played a significant role in disrupting it! Since 2005, this German politician has held the position of the Ministry of Family and then the Ministry of Labor in Merkel's cabinet, and then in 2013, she took charge of the ministry as Germany's first female defense minister. - Evidence of Vonderlein's connection with neo-Nazis Von der Leyen insists that she considers herself a two-pronged "Christian Democrat" and although she apparently was a good middle ground for Nazism, neo-Nazism and extreme nationalism, because the largest recruitment of neo-Nazis in the German army took place during her tenure as the Ministry of Defense. In 2018, the German publication "De Welt" claimed that after discovering traces and signs of Nazi tendencies in the German army and barracks, the then Minister of Defense Von der Leyen assessed the credibility of the country's army at risk. Even then, German army inspectors found a lecture hall at Furstenberg Barracks in the southern German city of Donauschingen decorated with Nazi Germany's World War II helmets and other symbols of that era. Von der Leyen's apparent concern about this incident was a misdirection that was later proven, as some senior commanders of the German Special Forces (KSK) during her time remained in their positions despite proven Nazi tendencies, under the pretext of not fully proving these accusations! - Thirst for Merkelism minus rationality The unwritten but tangible goal of the former German defense minister is clear. Von der Leyen plans to return to Berlin after the end of her tenure at the European Commission and celebrate her chancellorship in the shadow of the collapse of the ineffective Social Democratic government of Olaf Schultz. In this regard, Von der Leyen opened a special account on the votes of some supporters of the extreme party "Alternative for Germany" (AFD) and beyond that, among some members of the "Pegida" party, especially in the state of Saxony, due to the harsh image of the war in Ukraine. In 2014, Von der Leyen committed the worst possible betrayal against her country, when she secretly authorized US drone operations from the Ramstein Air Base in southwestern Germany to regularly fly various locations in Africa, to target Yemen, Pakistan, Iraq, Somalia and Afghanistan. At that time, Der Spiegel and Deutsche Welle reported that the Ramstein Air Base served as the monitoring center for American drone attacks. These media emphasized that the Minister of Defense was aware of Washington's intentions in this regard. - And now the war in Ukraine! Now, in the guise of the head of the European Commission, has become one of the main generators of the crisis in the Ukraine war, and apparently she feels very good that neo-Nazis and extreme nationalists praise her warmongering positions and her insistence on the continuation of the war. She considers stopping the war in Ukraine as her red line because it harms the project of "simulating the world of 2022 and the world of the middle of the 20th century", which she considers to be a fixed premise and the basis of her long-term entry into the office of the German Chancellor. In this simulation, however, there is one basic point, and that is Von der Leyen's special belonging to the other side of the Atlantic, that is, America, to the point where it does not matter to her in the least if Germany and the European Union are slaughtered in the path of her ambitions. During the approval of the recent proposed resolution of the European Parliament against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Von der Leyen held many secret consultations with the conservative members of the parliament and even went against the opinion of "Josep Burrell" in charge of the European Union's foreign policy that it is not possible to consider the IRGC as an official force and the military of a country, a foreign terrorist organization. - Shultz's indirect warning to Von der Leyen Olaf Schultz's weak government, consisting of three social democratic parties, the Greens and the Free Democrats, have unwittingly become Von der Leyen's agents in Berlin, regarding the great strategic error of Schulz's government in agreeing to send Leopard tanks to Ukraine. It brought its main target in Berlin closer, but made Berlin miles away from "internal security". However; Recently, Schultz announced that he wants to use all his efforts to prevent the spread of the war in Ukraine to other parts of Europe. This declarative approach is an indirect but telling message from the Social Democratic Chancellor of Germany to the belligerent head of the European Commission. Shultz declared: "We will avoid any escalation of tension that would lead to a war between Russia and NATO. A war between NATO and Russia would be terrible. We have an obligation to do everything we can to prevent the escalation of tensions." At first glance; It seems that these positions of Olaf Schultz are a reaction to Russian President Vladimir Putin's speech on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II. Referring to the German government's decision to send Leopard tanks to Ukraine, Putin said: "After 80 years, we have faced German tanks again. It is unbelievable but it is true. We will not send tanks to their borders, but we have the necessary tools to respond." Putin continues to threaten that his country is ready to use the entire arsenal of Russia, which includes nuclear weapons. Although Von der Leyen personally welcomes the formation of this radical atmosphere, the result of her dangerous game will definitely not benefit the general security of the Germans and the whole of Europe, so it is better for Schultz to realize the effects and consequences of Berlin falling into the trap of her ambitious plans and belligerence. On the other hand; Ursula von der Leyen should not forget that the metatext of the Second World War is completely different from the metatext of the Ukrainian war and is not necessarily in line with her crude and ambitious dreams.
