Richard David Prech | If I may be completely honest

"If I may be completely honest, I always think what an accident it was that this woman became Foreign Minister. Under normal conditions, she wouldn't even have gotten an internship at the Foreign Office. That someone with this moral fervor tries to explain to a class representative of a world power, a cultural nation, what Western values are, defines them as systemic rivals and virtually paints an escalation scenario on the wall, a values-led foreign policy that is in fact a confrontation-led foreign policy, instead of simply baking small rolls and saying to herself: 'As long as we are economically successful in Germany, the Chinese will take us seriously, lock, stock and barrel.'"
