I think he suspected it the whole time but didn’t tell the world until the Germans confirmed it officially but I guess even he didn’t expect her to sink this low. It’s impossible to believe that Putin didn’t see this coming completely, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to lead Russia to being able to fight not only Ukraine but also NATO and the USA at the same time while using a lot of technicality to prevent NATO until now from using its full force on Russia (by that I mean using NATOs full armed forces to fight Russia at its door step) and basically put the west on the brink of economical catastrophe due to the EUs in ability to be neutral and respect Russia sovereignty. I guess even Putin isn’t totally aware of the extent of the moral bankruptcy of Germany but in the end, actions have consequences and a hardened Putin is going to be an absolute nightmare for the EU. Once Putin fully aligns to the will of Russia (which is to crush the EU like China shouldve crush Japan for what they did in WW2 except those fu?king Americans are in the way and thus China should at the right time bring those sh$t heads down too), I believe that Germany is going to suffer some serious pain as a result of their ungratefulness. I wonder if the west realized just what they have done, and nothing less then the collective EU splitting off from the US alone with eliminating all US assets/NGO/NATO within the EU (which isn’t likely) would be the bare minimum required to get Russia to the table and much more will be required (the rest of the EU commission along with most of the environment faction being given the medical reason treatment) to restore things even remotely close to normal. A fu$k ton of Europeans are going to suffer before this happens and given their colonial past, this is extremely long overdue

The historic irony is Americans derogatorily called Chinese "celestials" because they believed Chinese had to come from outer space and not of the Earth. This is a Christian logic because they believed the further away from Jerusalem, aka God, you were, the more you were of the Devil. What further away from God than to be from infinite space? That's why in early science fiction aliens had similar features to Chinese... short, hairless, almond eyes... and they weren't friendly. Now the West thinks China is invading their territory.
Again, the propaganda in the west, by the West are only mostly effective to the countries, population that are under control of the west in terms of culture, politics, technology, and most of all the most acute threat of U.S. military might.
India, for all her nonsensical howlings is still a relatively weak ass country relatively speaking relative to it's population size, and actual economic output. But the sad fact is in every important metric in HDI, education, life expectancy, hunger index, patents etc..India LAGS SOO FAR BEHIND CHINA it's not even funny. The only area and avenue where these unfortunate Indians play pretend Supapowah is on the internet and social media which is rather lame and pathetically weak. They constantly talk and boast a big game because that's all they could ever do to mask their gross incompetence, corruption etc...The fact that they take pride in speaking Indian English is another laughable sign of the western indoctrination that has thoroughly seeped into their psyche. It's no different to how how our Eastern Asian and fellow Chinese contemporaries react and feel superior to their fellow people based on their supposed "English" proficiency which is another form of western indoctrination.
I wonder if Nord Stream 2 had an ulterior motive. The Germans were the one who initiated the expansion for Nord Stream and Merkel was chancellor between 2005 - 2021. If they knew that conflict with Russia was inevitable then why continue building. Maybe the end plan was the breakup of Russia and to extract Russian resources as reparations or it was a lure to bait Russia into thinking Western Europe was the mediators.

I don't believe that Putin did not know the ruse for a second. Nobody would believe just words without materialistic guarantees, state affairs or personal affairs. As an individual one would not lend some money without a written contract and collateral.
Putin is just doing the victim thing, it is to justify everything he does now. It is also an excuse to refuse "negotiation" proposal from the west, such as Macron's signalling few weeks ago. It is also a bargain as "give me something real since I don't trust you".
It is just diplomatic maneuver, everybody does it.
Chinese are celestials while Muricans are bottomfeeders.
Western politicians say and do different things when they are in or out of office. We should not take Merkel's words (ruse) too seriously. She may be serious of approaching Russia, but now after strongarmed by US and out of power, she has to do and say the "right thing". Otherwise, she may end up like her mentor Hulmut Koll ending up in legal trouble. BTW she back stabbed Koll for her raising in power.
I think the whole thing is simple. Germany want to control and diversify its energy supply which will make Germany more independent (from US). US want to squeeze the Russians. Germany got in the way. US smashed through, now Germany has to swallow the teeth. It is the repetition of Japan's 1980s "Japan can say no". After that Japan was very "pro" American, only they know how painful it is.
BTW, her mobile phone was (and still is?) taped by NSA, what do you expect she to say?
This is even more comprehensive than just China-Saudi oil trade in yuan. Xi included ALL GCC nations to trade oil and gas in yuan through the Shanghai Exchange.
After sanction after sanction on China’s tech companies and supporting Taiwan independence, China has taken the gloves off.
