Logically, not sure why those countries would be obliged to indulge a corrosive terrorist empire that has never stopped trying to conquer them. But - sure. The degree to which European "leaders" have been clearly corrupted and bribed by the FSB over the last century is just mind-boggling.

Fucking Merkel. Now is the time for unity against the invader. Not finger pointing at allies.

And Merkel bears no fault in this I suppose?

Seriously. And since Merkel got the fingers pointing, let's talk about Merkel. Merkel was instrumental in getting Germany hooked on Russian gas. They even publicly laughed at people pointing it out. Merkel, when even Trump makes you look bad, you are making some horrible decisions.

Then when Russia invaded Ukraine for the second time, what did Germany do? Well, they did they only thing they could do as they setup no alternative plan: they shoveled money into Russia's coffers, funding their invasion of Ukraine. Took them years to fix this issue.

The theory was that they could entrench Russia in the EU economy making them more likely to cooperate and compete economically than militarily.

That obviously fucking failed and she and those like her should be doing these media tours only with apologies for their failed ideas.
