"Nation states must
today be prepared to give up their sovereignty",
...according to German
Chancellor Angela Merkel, who told an audience in Berlin that
sovereign nation states must not listen to the will of their
citizens when it comes to questions of immigration, borders, or even
sovereignty.
No this wasn't something Adolf Hitler said many decades ago,
this is what German Chancellor Angela Merkel told attendants at an
event by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS)
in Berlin.
Merkel has announced she
won't seek re-election in 2021 and it is clear she is attempting to
push the globalist agenda to its disturbing conclusion before she
stands down.
"In an orderly
fashion of course," Merkel joked, attempting to lighten the
mood.
But Merkel has always had
a tin ear for comedy and she soon launched into a dark speech
condemning those in her own party who think Germany should have
listened to the will of its citizens and refused to sign the
controversial UN migration pact:
"There were
[politicians] who believed that they could decide when these
agreements are no longer valid because they are representing The
People".
"[But] the people are individuals who are living in a country,
they are not a group who define themselves as the [German]
people," she stressed.
Merkel has previously
accused critics of the UN Global Compact for Safe and Orderly
Migration (GCM)
of not being patriotic, saying,
"That is not
patriotism, because patriotism is when you include others in
German interests and accept win-win situations".
Her words echo recent
comments by the deeply unpopular French President
Emmanuel Macron who stated in a
Remembrance Day speech,
"patriotism is the
exact opposite of nationalism [because] nationalism is treason."
The French president's
words were deeply unpopular with the French population and his
approval rating nosedived even further after the comments.
Macron, whose lack of leadership is proving unable to deal
with
growing protests in France,
told the Bundestag that France and Germany should be at the center
of the emerging
New World Order.
"The Franco-German
couple [has] the obligation not to let the world slip into chaos
and to guide it on the road to peace".
"Europe must be stronger… and win more sovereignty,",
...he went on to demand,
just like Merkel, that EU member states surrender national
sovereignty to Brussels over,
"foreign affairs,
migration, and development" as well as giving "an increasing
part of our budgets and even fiscal resources".
