47% of Germans Think Zelensky Should Surrender Territory and End the War

Germany is going to need a law against doubting Zelensky. People can’t be allowed to just go around not believing in the abilities of the messiah of democracy values of a rules-based order.

As a comparison, I doubt even 5% of Americans are aware of the fact that the Ukraine could immediately end this conflict by surrendering territory.

Almost half of Germans believe Ukraine should cede territory in the country’s east to reach a peace deal with Russia, according to a fresh poll by broadcaster RTL.

While 47% of Germans back the idea of Ukraine making territorial concessions to Russia, some 41% oppose it. The remaining 12% of respondents were unsure, according to the poll.

A vast majority – some 69% – of Germans do not believe that Kiev will be able to defeat Russia on the battlefield and drive its troops out of the country.

What? How can more people think they have no chance of winning than think they should surrender?

This means that 22% of Germans think that Ukrainians should just keep fighting and dying for literally no reason. (Of course, you always have to wonder about these polls.)

Only 26% adhere to the idea that enough weaponry supplied to Kiev by the collective West would allow it to score a military victory over Russia. Meanwhile, 56% of Germans believe that supplying heavy weaponry to Kiev was the right thing to do, while some 40% are opposed.

Despite supporting the arms deliveries to Kiev, a vast majority of Germans (73%) do not believe that the country’s federal government has a well-thought-out strategy for dealing with both Kiev and Moscow in the long term, while only 15% believe a well-conceived plan is in place.

Well, Americans might be too stupid to even have the basic information about this war they support, but I think the lack of confidence in Western governments’ ability to handle literally anything at all is now nigh universal. Maybe some of the smaller countries don’t feel that way, because they can blame bigger countries. But when you’re talking about America, Britain, Germany, France – the overwhelming majority of the population has lost all faith in their fundamental state institutions.

At any other point in history, this kind of crisis of belief in the government would cause an uprising, but in this current era, people are too comfortable to rise up, and in the case of America, too fat and gay.
