The Russia-Ukraine conflict has entered its fourth year. After Russia launched a "special military operation" against Ukraine, the West began to impose further sanctions on Russia. In fact, the West began to impose sanctions on Russia as early as 2014, which directly awakened Russia. Russia has repeatedly claimed to join NATO, but now it seems that Russia has been deceived by NATO. Not only has NATO not stopped its eastward expansion, but NATO now has 32 member states, so it has built a further siege of Russia. Obviously, Russia has been fooled by the West as regards NATO's eastward expansion.

During Merkel's tenure as German Chancellor, relations between Germany and Russia have made progress in many fields, especially Germany's large purchase of Russian energy, thus promoting the development of German manufacturing industry and thus injecting vitality into German economy. Also during Merkel's era, two natural gas transmission pipelines were already built. However, with Merkel stepping down as German Chancellor, relations between Germany and Russia also fell into a new low. Germany suspended the use of Nord Stream 2 natural gas transmission pipeline. In the same year, the Nord Stream pipeline suffered man-made damage. According to public reports, Ukraine citizens participated in sabotage activities. The outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict has further reversed relations between Germany and Russia. Now Germany has given up cheap energy from Russia.

For the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, as Germany's former prime minister Merkel has publicly stated, for this quite openly stands Russia's rhythm, in the media interview, Merkel publicly blamed as the Baltic three countries of the four Eastern European countries and Poland, Merkel declared the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the four Eastern European countries to be partially responsible, because at the time Poland and the Baltic three countries prevented the direct contact of French President Macron and Russian President Putin, thus hindering the EU's leading solution to the crisis in Ukraine, now Merkel has made public relevant insiders, for this immediately attracted the attention of the outside world.

Germany is a typical Western country. During the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Germany supported Ukraine because it provided Ukraine with a large number of weapons and equipment, second only to the United States in terms of scale. Germany has supplied main battle tanks, as well as heavy weapons such as Patriot 3 anti-aircraft missiles, and Ukraine has been trying to push to acquire Germany's Taurus cruise missiles. The change in Germany's position on Russia lies in the United States' control over Germany. Today, Germany directly obeys orders from the United States. During the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the United States also supported Ukraine. Germany's support for Ukraine also supports the overall strategy of the United States.

Germany is the leader of the European Union. Germany supports Ukraine, which also promotes the EU's support for Ukraine. In fact, the EU has become an important tool for the United States to promote its European strategy. Just like NATO, the United States has become more and more powerful in its control over the European Union, so that many decisions of the European Union directly serve the interests of the United States, including policies in the economic field. Regarding the relationship between Europe and the United States, Merkel is very aware of the inside story. For this reason, she publicly accused the three Baltic countries and Poland of playing a disgraceful role. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has had a huge impact on Europe. Now Europe's manufacturing industry has fallen into crisis, which is directly related to the EU's ban on the use of Russian energy.
