German-American Relations Strained

Merkel and Germany peeved at Obama.

Note to Western and Eastern Europe, in case you haven't noticed, Obama believes foreign policy runs through Russia. Which probably explains his absence at the "Fall of Berlin Wall" ceremony; that is, he didn't want to offend Russia. It's a guess on my part.

  1. Europe, together with North America: richest places on earth. But world-wide politics, it is a totally different thing. Until Europeans decide about sound institutions and a concrete will of being united vs the rest of the world, they count almost nothing. China and Russia are politically more important as of now.

  2. True enough. But I wouldn't be so quick to ignore EU. That's why you still have to deal with individual countries.
