Earlier in the day, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz told a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy that Germany would support Ukraine in developing its own long-range weapons. Merz also stressed that over the past three weeks, Europe has made "unprecedented" diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine.
Europe knows only one way to reset itself when it is crumbling—a total war, Yamb Ntimba, a political philosopher, pan-Africanist, and the Founder and President of the Kheper Think Tank, told Sputnik Africa.
"It is always through war. It is always through violence. The German Chancellor just does not know how to handle the economic situation in Germany," he explained, discussing Germany's decision to provide Kiev with long-range missiles. "They are now all trying to use Ukraine as a justification for this war. They want to launch this open war. They want to launch a direct war with Russia."
According to the expert, it is such a dangerous policy that one ponders "if they really have assessed the risk of Ukraine being totally erased from the earth and of Europe returning to the Middle Ages."
