In Germany, where 85 percent of the population say they trust the French, only 16 percent now say they trust the US.

Meanwhile in Denmark a new Berlingske poll came out where 92 percent of Danes say, we need to focus on Europe — not the US — when it comes to security. Only 3 percent disagree.

Trump is completely rebranding the US as an Oblast of Russia.

@randahl You know it's serious when germans trust the French more than anyone else.

Politically the so-called German-French axis was always strong and important.

Cause there are stereotypes and negative views here and there. But in general there's no broad hatred towards the French.

I like them anyway. 😍

@ruedi @randahl I think it's the kind of relationship siblings sometimes have ;)

Where I am from in Germany we have the Hermannsdenkmal...basically a statue of a dude with a sword in his hand, ready to fight...the architect explicitly wanted it to face France haha

Yeah, bit of making fun of each other is absolutely ok. Nothing wrong with that. 😊

I live in Cologne which was taken over by Napoleon's army. We still have a lot of French stuff, words and so on. Find that really cool.
