Properly educated leaders are so much stronger.
You didnt read The Nordstream 2 deal.
"strong leaders"? Sounds you are 82 years too late...
@@domenq8924 lets not go there... that guy was just delusional
Are you joking india 😥
She is not a strong leader, she is a weak leader. She also supports nazism.
"East Germany was alligned with SSSR, West Germany was alligned with rest of Europe"- literally half of Europe was socialist. Half of Europe. Europe is not just France, UK and Germany. It's been 30 years, why are people still using this bloc divide in their heads from the cold war? And why Americans can't learn Poland, Slovakia, Romania are as european as Spain or Belgium.
Because they are not as commited and loyal to America, as Americans would want to.
@@maksimnikiforovski2034 Well I think US control media outlets and they propagate their (US) agenda. Media is strong tool in reshaping perspective.
@@abdullahawan781 And so does China and Russia and Saudi Arabia etc. Don't just blame the Americans when all super powers are doing this. Learn about world politics before pointing fingers at one nation.
America,China,Russia are the 3 leading Nations of the UN.
Israel and Saudi Arabia are the silent powers that dictate a lot of stuff. Especially the wars in the Middle East. Its not just the USA..
Because America still is power hungry abd justifies this with winning ww2

Helping others isn't just a Christian belief, it's basic human decency.
Helping immigrants that do not hold the same view of humanity.
@@neneklampir6664 sila lihat lampiran di bawah
Helping rapists is isn't just liberal belief but basic leftist decency.
Culture and laws dictate behavior. Morality probably doesn't exist. Don't believe me....ok, let's recap humanity. Before humans could read or write, we literally owned other humans. We consistently raided neighbors and tribes until we moved to large cities and could form a army controlled by the state. Oh nevermind. I'm wasting my time. Before you make a comment about morality, just remember the device your going to respond back to me with was at the very least, made with some slave labor. I would walk a mile in your shoes but they were probably made by a 12 year old.
1:26 I believe that it is not true that “Merkel had to hold her head down” because the socialist countries had been pioneers of policies for integrating the women in the society. The fact that she concluded her studies in Leipzig at the University Alma Mater Lipsiensis shows that women could do well in that socialist system. Do not get me wrong, I do not say that DDR was not a regime.
True in fact she was important in the socialist party in the DDR, with a high position. .
I took that as kept her head down religiously because they had just talked about her pastor father being re-located to eastern Germany.
She literally said it was because there was no openness when it comes to political discussion,not because she was a woman. And the fact that her father was a pastor was also a problem as communists are atheists.
@@brianmiller1077 He wasn’t re-located, he went voluntarily.
... How did you hear that line and jump to the idea the video was talking about sexism in East Germany? Nowhere did they say that.
Whatever you think of her on her immigration policy, she did more good to this world than bad. There isn’t many politicians you can say the same in terms of legacy
On WHAT Base you say such thing ??? She was the worst ever for Europe !!!
@@thomasmartin8431 she steer Germany through one of the most difficult period in modern era, refugee crisis, Greece, global recession, brexit, trump and the recent covid. In terms of balance of interest I feel she’s done well.
Edit forgot about the ceasefire of Ukraine and Russia aswell
Yes, she did more good for the Muslim world, not so much her own nation.
You kidding me? You disregard her failures to praise her. She can go to hell.
@@thomasmartin8431 look at Ukraine now

Merkel did not enact same sex marriage. She publicly said many times she is against it and was one of the main reasons, it got enacted so late even though most Germans had been in support of same sex marriage for a long time.
So, instead you should say it got enacted *despite* Merkel, because more progressive parties kept pushing for it.
Hotscraper, you are right
In my opinion as a German, I would consider the time with Merkel as a time of stability.
As an outsider, what's your view on
The rise in crimes, especially against women in Europe. Following mass immigration under merkel's leadership?
@@raisterrai8229 his head is in the dirt lol
She started with the opening of Nord Stream 1 and ended with completion of Nord Stream 2.
She ended paying protection money in order to get the approval of a foreign country for what she is doing in international territory.
She deals with Putin. What cost ? Putin, I'm sure you accept, seeks to destabilise former Soviet Bloc states. Maybe it's time for the return of the former East Germany. What a prize that would be for his legacy.
@@stuartgartery2717 How is Putin destabilizing former Soviet countries ? East Europe is literally going extinct, losing millions of people because of emigration to the West. They are committing suicide.
@@antoniorsoftware I think You have your wires crossed. He must be doing a good job if you have not realised. Incidentally, it's the land and real estate he needs, the population is not a worry for him.
@@stuartgartery2717 The US imports more oil and gas from Russia than Germany. So get your facts right
It’s an extraordinary feeling knowing that she became the Chancellor when I entered school and is going to step down shortly before my university graduation.

Lol
Facilitating mass migration to Europe and accelerating demographic change are her main achievements.
Yeah she take Greece like a boss
09:55 I like the fact that Ms. Merkel is able to speak to Putin, Obama, Trump, May, and Johnson in their own languages. That is a tremendous advantage.
She is an example of how US media gets wrong with labeling and describing foreign countries political parties and personalities. Her present depiction wasn't always like the one portrayed by this video. Americans are quick to misjudge foreigners by their political "names". Here we have a woman who is from a "conservative party" which actually applies liberal views and laws to their people, and has a progressive agenda encouraging green energy economy. A woman who speaks Russian, but is one of the most important US ally. A woman who has "christian views", yet do not discriminate immigrants, nor sexual orientation. Perhaps people out of the US are not as polarized with labels, perhaps they are just pragmatic.
German politics was way less pragmatic and much more partisan before she became chancellor.
*Great thumbnail indeed*
Excellent journalism
No it isn't lol
Many information was misleading or just plain wrong...
You now, I’m going to miss Mutti Merkel.
Satan is she. Moore poore Peoples in germany
Actually she voted against same sex mariage
What a nice interview! Love it!
She did what she was voted in for. She enacted policies of her conservative voters. I wouldn't vote for her because I am not a conservative but not because she is a bad leader.
Merkel was a socialist and Globilist ... she allowed Germany to be invaded by foreigners and has been aligning Germany to be dependant on Russia for gas and oil!!! Its time to get a conservative leader for Germany!

Good work keep continue it 👍👍☺️
What!? She did not enact same-sex marriage; in fact she was opposing it. If it wasn’t for the highest court-that forced this on her-same-sex couples would probably still not be able to get married in Germany.
False, same sex couples are able to marry in Germany now.
@@ChrisT-O Did you even read my comment? I said the highest court forced her hand, not that same sex couples wouldn’t be allowed to marry in Germany.

Merkel vs modi
Sorry darling sorry darling !!!!!
She started immigration crisis in 2014 that many European costs there lives and many others emigrated to Australia and Northern America. She divided Europe by allowing for Nord Stream 2. That women should be jail for life!!!
Emigration out of Europe has been steadily going down since 2010... The refugee crisis was also not started by her but by the war in Syria in which NATO, Turkey, Russia and ISIS are all responsible for. And Nord Stream 2 was part of the larger Nord Stream project, started by Gerhard Schröder. Why should you care anyway? Nord Stream 2 is our project and it‘s in part of our sovereignty to construct this pipeline.

She can come and retire into my village, Koroshandeti, in Kenya. I will personally give her land! She's an epitome of composure in a crisis. Admirable 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Its an absolute impudence to say that Merkel allowed same sex marriage to be legalized. First of, the respective bill wasn't even proposed by her party and second and most important of all, SHE personally voted against that bill. Many other information was also very much wrong or misleading. I'm wondering if your correspondent really checked her information...
Remarkable woman! Her presence will be greatly missed!

At first but then after someone asked when gay marriage would be allowed it was allowed some time later
@@EdgelordOfEdginess I know that it was legalized in 2017 yet she opposed same Sex marriage at the voting

2:36 Mr. Bean car
This is an honest opinion. Angela Markle is a graduate and a believer of Christian religion. Apart from her religious believe, she is a person who has morals and ethics as a person followed by strategy to rule a country. Not everyone can rule a country consistently year after year. It's fascinating that, when every other EU or NATO countries criticized for her immigrants policies in a crucial or difficult times like that she didn't loose her confidence or gave up or considered her faiths and believes with others instead that she kept her country's border open for the immigrants. This single act of kindness or humanity made her a leader who not just care for her own citizens but also for the others as well.
How many leaders can deal or confront Putin today? I guess no one instead Angela Markle. Because Putin himself stated Markle as a powerful and influential leader who can make difference and has abilities to deal with difficulties professionally.
Do you think any other world leaders has these qualities like Angela Markle?
was her father born in Kaliningrad or Königsberg. Same City but 2 very different places and narratives....
Trudeau also has good press internationaly but here 🇨🇦 He's meh....😑
.... my brain be like that symbol reminded me of something else XD
nice
I would say, Merkel's legacy is Bucha. Nothing else will be associated with her name except for that. She engineered the situation for Bucha to happened while Germany still had to rely on Russia's gas.
Bad. Being polite is not enough.
16 years? Does Germany have term limits.
Unfortunately no
Yeah, the German president is only allowed to serve two terms. But there is no term limit for the chancellor.
She managed Germany's steep decline with diesel gate, Wirecard gate, corruption scandal, and now floods that killed hundreds.

I don't know if that was on purpose... or just a sign for the failure what is today's American Education System.

Almost NONE of what was talked about here came to pass because of an effort of Angela Merkel's politic! Most of these things were occasions, were political realities which the CDU had to deal with. And the question for them was to ... 'sink or swim' .... The CDU would have had lost all their power if they had not given in when it comes to these points.
VERY BAD JOURNALISM ;)
This video contains a lot of mistakes or potential misunderstandings about German politics.
In Germany in the general election the chancellor is not voted directly by the people but the Parliament is voted. Then a government is formed. The chancellor candidate is decided by each party in advance and is then voted by the parliament.
Merkel did not enact same sex marriage. It was a vote by the Parliament and she voted against it.
It is also a bit weird to say West Germany was with "the rest of Europe" when half of Europe was with UDSSR.
She was pro capitalist(chroni Capital) always support the business of her country .
cut down goverment spending and supported private entrepreneur.
My comments are disappearing on Weibo too. This is really bad. If they summon me and I mention one line you can’t do shit. You can’t even talk about it out loud. They’re deleting my comments. My comments. What makes you think she will get away with this? It’s mental torture. And they keep deleting it to save themselves.
Wrong! That hand gesture had been used half a century ago by the Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie - Ethiopia's 'Lion of Judah' This hand gesture “ Also known as the Seal of Solomon or the Diamond hand gesture, it's said that Emperor Haile Selassie made this gesture to indicate that he is in fact a manifestation of the Divinity.” In fact you will find more fascinating stories about this hand gesture if you dig more in the history.
I wonder that her successor can keep the open mindedness strategy, economy and diplomacy in the future.

Merkal did not do enough with Germany population decline
Do you even know what the population decline causes . Look in de historybooks , for example the roman Empire had the same problem of population decline and did the same germany does now . Use immigration . And from a historical perspective it is not going to end well . History lessons from the roman empire to western civilazation : use the same tactic and expect the same result.
@@Smellslikenarcspirit Imagine comparing Rome 2000 years ago to Modern nation states. You are neglecting a shit ton of different factors. Number one, Germany didn’t colonise half of Europe (not now at least). Rome didn’t fall because it had immigration. It fell because those the Romans conquered rebelled.
@@ssik9460 i do not talk only about germany , its western civilazation in general . The west ( Nord America , europe , Australië ) immigration is used by different empires trough history and the romans used it for the same reason as much of the western nations do . And another similar thing is that we have a welfare state like the romans had . We have our money debased to fiatcurrency like the romans did . And western civilazation has many conflicts troughout the world the last decade and now we are in a constant state of war , like the romans also had whit the barbarians .
@@Smellslikenarcspirit again, the collapse of the Europeans has already happened. There are no European powers that can exert force. As I said, The British, German and French Empire fell not only because they fought each other but also because the colonies rebelled.
@@ssik9460 they are not yet fallen , so long the nations still exist they are pretty much alive . The disintergration whitin trough immigration is already pressent . Because al those refugee,s cant adapt to their host nations forming a 5e colone . That live,s of welfare . And the native,s pay the extra burden tax for this 5e colone . Eating the welfare state away from the inside . And when that collapse comes , the nationsstate is bankrupt .
