And occasionally gets us killed?:hmm:
Germany and no other European country will change stance and adopt new policies based solely on charisma...
Let him sit on the autocrat's throne, manuver his sub through the shallow waters of Iraq and Afganistan, face the problems of internal and global economy, balance terrorism vs human/civil rights and ... and... and...
And after that we'll see if we still belong to the "old Europe" or not!
