The bubble finally burst. Majorities in France, Italy, Greece, Brazil, Mexico, Israel, Turkey, Colombia, Malaysia, etc. or large minorities in US, Canada, Germany, Poland, Spain, etc. express no or not much confidence in Zelensky.

Could it be that AfD and BSW are blatant puppets of Putin? Nah... can't be that.

This would imply that Putin is a puppet-mastering Übermensch. I guess Russiagate is a transatlantic conspiracy theory.

Atleast Petr Bystron and Maxillian Krah got donations from russia. And there are several news outlets who say that there are indeed several MEPs that were influenced by Russia as well.

So I don't think so that its just a transatlantic conspiracy.

Imagine genuinely believing that Russia has more influence over Europe than the US. 🤣

That's not what I said at all?

If you understood that US has more political influence over Europe than Russia then you'd also understand why your conspiracy theory is nonsensical.

I simply stated, that there are atleast two known AfD politicans who took donations from russia, and that there are several MEPs who are influenced by Russia. I have NEVER stated that the USA had more political influence over Europe than Russia, nor did I EVER stated that those known politicans were influenced more by the USA.

You are spinning my comments into a conspiracy theory.

Again, it's pretty clear what your statement is trying to say, and it's absolutely hilarious how you're trying to spin it into something else now.

Whatever you want to believe.
