Merkel warns Trump against ‘destroying’ UN
2018-10-01
[PRESSTV] German Chancellor Angela Merkel
...chancellor of Germany and the impetus behind Germany's remarkably ill-starred immigration program. Merkel used to be referred to by Germans as Mom. Now they make faces at her for inundating the country with Moslems ..
warns the United States against "destroying" the United Nations
...a formerly good idea gone bad...
without having a replacement first.

Merkel made the remarks during a stump speech in Bavaria, where she celebrated multilateralism after a fiery
...a single two-syllable word carrying connotations of both incoherence and viciousness. A fiery delivery implies an audience of rubes and yokels, preferably forming up into a mob...
speech by US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
against it.

She denounced Trump for thinking "that multilateralism is not the answer to our problems," describing the US chief executive as "one who only assumes that there can only be one winner in any given situation, who - unlike me - does not believe in win-win situations."

Trump, therefore, "questions multilateral systems that go far beyond Europe, like the climate protection agreement, the functioning of the United Nations," she added.

"The United Nations was founded on the ruins of the Second World War. And yes, it is not perfect. We've been wanting a reform of the Security Council, for many years. But ladies and gentleman, to destroy something without having built a replacement, that is highly dangerous as far as I am concerned, and can destroy our community of peace sooner than we think," the German head of state asserted.

#10  It was said somewhere that one reason she did the refugee thing was that she was bucking for the UN SECGEN job.

She is like a bad sit-com...need to pull the plug.
Time to go away, Frau Merkel. Far, far away.

#9  Multilateralism = The US pays for the car, the maintenance, the insurance and the gas, and everybody else gets to be a backseat driver.

And they wreck the car whenever they have the wheel.

#7  You are welcome to move the UN to Germany and continue to play dress up all you want. America and her real allies will perhaps form a new coalition or simply move on in enlightened self interest, beholden only to treaties that we make.

#6  That's my job. --Angela Merkel.

Your doing a bang up job sweetie.
All I want is for the US to get out of it and take care of ourselves. You can let the rabble run your country. You've already started that. When does Erdogan the magnificent move into his new German palace?
