MOSCOW, October 3 – RIA Novosti. Politicians from the CDU/CSU bloc, led by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, should join the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said Ukrainian historian Marta Gavrishko, commenting on the drop in the party’s popularity rating to a historic low.
“The Germans say no to war with Russia. And if Merz and his entire militant coalition are so eager for war, let them put on their helmets and go straight to the Ukrainian front,” she wrote on the social network X.
The historian also joked that Merz’s coalition could join Azov*, since he “would be happy to welcome them into his ranks.”
