i don't go ahead in washington. well there's, there's always reconstruction conferences and you mentioned griff earlier. this is one another for road griffin. i mean, i remember, in bosnia they were doing reconstruction and a year you're talking about reconstruction a year before the war ended. how do you rebuild of things that can keep getting destroyed on a daily basis? that's insane. you can't plan for reconstruction until the war is over. and there's this, this particular war shows no sign of ending the least because western trenches. it could end to morrow. if washington, that's actually pulling the financial and political strings of kiev said ok enough, but it won't the kit. so what do we even talking about? no, we did. the reconstruction conferences are just another money laundering scheme. this one, benefiting the n g o is instead of the weapons makers. but it's, it's, it's not deal, as i said, the west las russia years ago. they're not aware of this, but that will happen. and what they're trying to do here

and of course, on behalf of washington. this is a president that russia has acted in a way which the west would have been interpreted as the doctrine responsibility to protect, to stop the atrocities that have been going on in eastern ukraine for, for over 8 years before russia intervene. so in my view, the president is that it's not for the western actors which have interpreted international law in the way. they found it reasonable, but it was an opponent of the west. and this is what charles, in reality is expressing how consistent has germany been when it comes to such cases, especially considering germany's own history and an invading and occupying some very neighboring countries during the last century. i mean, we don't have to go so far back. we can stay in the federal republic of germany and it's reason history in 1909. for example, germany, it's a 1st unlawful military intervention in yugoslavia in serbia. and this was also a president for further actions which have not been properly backed by international law. lik
