German navy chief resigns over Crimea & Putin comments

 

Vice Admiral Kay-Achim Schoenbach has stepped down amid a diplomatic row caused by his ‘personal opinion’

 

Germany’s Navy chief, vice-admiral Kay-Achim Schoenbach, has vacated his post on Saturday evening – just a day after he said that Crimea “will never come back”, and that Putin and Russia “probably deserve respect.”

 

Schoenbach asked Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht to “relieve me from my duties with immediate effect,” with the minister accepting his resignation, according to a statement cited by Reuters.

 

Speaking at an event organized by an Indian think tank in New Delhi on Friday, the vice-admiral dismissed as “nonsense” the notion that Russia was “interested in having a small and tiny strip of Ukraine soil and integrating it into their country.”

 

Schoenbach went on to claim that what President Putin wanted was the West to “respect” Russia, adding that “it is easy to give him the respect he really demands — and probably also deserves.” Addressing the issue of Crimea, the German Navy commander opined that the “peninsula is gone” and “will never come back — this is a fact.”

Midterms are coming and TPTB need to walk back the COVID restrictions. Their problem is going to be trying to convince the pandemic fanatics to take the masks off and go back to normal. It’s going to be very difficult to reprogram them.
