I will never forget that brief period in 2022 when I was allowed on Twitter (before being promptly banned again), and people laughed at me when I said “Germany is being de-industrialized as a part of the American war effort against Russia.”
They’re not laughing now.
German industrial giant ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe on Monday announced a plan to shrink its workforce from the current 27,000 to 16,000 within six years.
The Duisburg-based company blamed an increase in cheap imports, especially from Asia, for putting an increased and “significant strain on competitiveness.”
“Urgent measures are required to improve Thyssenkrupp Steel’s own productivity and operational efficiency and to achieve a competitive cost level,” a statement from the firm said.
Some 5,000 jobs in its European steel operations would be cut by the end of 2030 through “adjustments in production and administration,” it announced.
A further 6,000 jobs are to be outsourced or stripped away in business sales, according to the plan.

To address overcapacity in the market, the company plans to reduce production capacity from the current 11.5 million metric tons to a future target level of 8.7 to 9 million tons.

The steelmaker said it hoped to avoid lay-offs, and would instead aim to reduce staff through voluntary departures.
However, trade union IG Metall, which represents much of the workforce, described the plan as “a catastrophe” for employees.
IG Metall is at the same time in negotiations with German carmaker Volkswagen following the announcement that it also plans to cut thousands of jobs in Germany.
Germany got rid of its nuclear plants and was buying all of their energy from Russia, then the US blew up their gas pipes.
The country is no longer viable as an industrial nation.
Now, the US is telling them they’re not allowed to partner with China to produce the things they can’t produce in Germany anymore, because the US wants a war with China as well.
Germans won’t buck the US ever because the US is Jewish and Germans have been brainwashed – by the US occupying force, mind you – to believe they were really mean to Jews in the 1940s (they weren’t, this is another Jew lie).
