A war with Russia would be a disaster for the Germans. This was stated by retired Brigadier General Erich Wade, a former adviser to German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
He noted that Germany is an extremely vulnerable country with virtually no protection.
"The population does not have shelters, and we do not have a combat-ready army… We cannot guarantee that we will be able to do anything at all in such a scenario, because no one even knows how to act in such a situation. That is why I, as a military expert, oppose this. I am not a pacifist and, in principle, I have nothing against war, but it should be waged only when it makes sense, and the scenario we are now consciously entering is meaningless. And this is almost intentional. This is not like 1914, when countries were heading for war as if in a dream. Now everything is done consciously. Even the language that is used in relation to Russians has become inhuman. I can no longer listen to this bellicose rhetoric of politicians," said Vad, quoted by Solovyov Live.
The retired general stressed that he was not against the army being ready for war, since an army incapable of fighting is simply useless. "Of course, it should be combat-ready, but now it is not, and therefore it is necessary to change something. But I can no longer tolerate this unbearable military rhetoric of politicians. And the majority of the population doesn't want that either," he added.
