Stanislav Krapivnik on the Latest Attempt on Trump's Life

ESW Eurasia Editor Stanislav Krapivnik recorded another dog-walking Drago video this week. In this segment he shares his thoughts on obvious deep state links to the latest attempted assassination of the USA's 45th President Donald Trump. Stas also brings up the quietly growing number of Germans--not all of them from former Soviet republic origins--looking at obtaining Russian residency or citizenship.

Who are these Germans seeking Eine neue Heimat im Russland that Stanislav is speaking about in the video above, whose numbers are expected to quietly reach into the 100s of thousands? Below in an otherwise Harvard liberal G-NGO trash article is a useful historic summary of who are the Volksdeutsche (the older term to describe Eastern Bloc inhabitants forcibly resettled/expelled from the 1940s or 1950s) or Russlanddeutsche. Given the fact that President Putin speaks fluent German and is likely hearing from his old East German friend Matthias Warnig about Germany's ongoing economic catastrophe (engineered by Berlin's closest allies, no less), Putin may very well have aimed his recent presidential decree partially at bringing this population (back) to Russia:

The Russlanddeutsche, or Russian-Germans, are repatriated Germans who moved back to Germany from the former Soviet Union during the 1990s. After World War II, the Russian-Germans were highly unpopular in the Soviet Union, and they were targeted as an ethnic minority.

To protect those who shared their ethnicity, the Germans created a plan of repatriation with the Soviets to allow Russian-German resettlement in Germany. This mostly happened after the fall of the Iron Curtain, when about 2.3 million ethnically German, Soviet Union citizens resettled in Germany. In a country with a population of approximately 83 million, this is not insignificant, especially when considering that they function under a Parliamentary governing system. The Russian-Germans are an important voting bloc within Germany who are not only being targeted by the AfD but also tend to be more conservative than other Germans.You can also read more on the German law of repatriation helpfully published in English for Volksdeutsche living abroad here. A useful summary is quoted below:

Ethnic German resettlers are Germans within the meaning of the Basic Law who return to the country of their ancestors to live there permanently. Resettlers are admitted to Germany as ethnic Germans if they declared their commitment to German traditional culture in their home country and learned the German language at home.

The Federal Office of Administration is responsible for processing the admission and distribution of ethnic German repatriates.

Emigration of ethnic Germans from Poland, Romania, Hungary and other European countries of the former Eastern Bloc has almost stopped, except for cases of family reunification, partly due to the improved economic and social situation in these countries.

Emigration from countries of the former Soviet Union has significantly dropped over the years. While in the early 1990s up to 400,000 resettlers came to Germany each year for various reasons, by 2016 this number had fallen to 6,588.

Given the rapid deindustrialization that has occurred since the Nordstream 2 pipelines were blown up by the CIA/MI6 (with Ukraine and secondarily Poland taking the blame in the cover story for this largest-ever act of ecoterrorism) and job losses related to industry being starved of affordable Russian gas, Moscow would be highly shrewd to start poaching unemployed German talent, both senior engineers and younger manufacturing specialists.

To paraphrase our friend Russia's leading expert on Western migration Timur Beslangurov said during his September 13th interview on the ESW/Rogue program--Western politicians scoff at Russia mirror-imaging the sanctions that have been applied to Russian leaders and businessmen, since these political hacks have no business interests or children in the Russian Federation. But the politicians' deep state masters are secretly worried that Russia and to a more publicized extent China could turn the Brain Drain tables from the last Cold War, and hire disaffected or unemployed white males with highly coveted skills that the globalist Clownworld regimes including Germany's have foolishly tossed aside. If such programs could be created and well-executed in Russia they would cause further heartburn for the deep statists in Washington, just as the flight of British celebrities and farmers to Russia is a major embarrassment for Russophobic London.

As for German women especially those of German-Russian origins, Russia also offers far more affordable land and family formation than over-leveraged, over-financialized and overcrowded in many places Germany possibly can. Just as we've already seen Western immigrant YouTubers becoming an important part of Russia's whole of society messaging to the outside world that the Ark doors have opened, expect German-speaking influencers to become more prominent in the months and years to come.

As we've said, the only migration related precedent that even comes close to the potential impact that President Putin's August decree is likely to have on Russia's 21st century was the German-born Empress Catherine the Great inviting thousands of German Catholics and Protestants to the Russian Empire in the late 18th century. These German immigrants settled in the vast Russian hinterland, especially in agriculturally rich places like Saratov Region along the Volga, and their descendants were only forced to emigrate by the depredations of the Bolsheviks after World War I or deported to Siberia by the USSR as a result of Nazi aggression in 1941.

To paraphrase the late Mexican President Porfirio Diaz's famous quip about poor Mexico, so far from God, so close to the Gringos---poor Germany, so close to Mother Russia geographically and historically (the bloody 20th century World Wars it must be said were an aberration to centuries of mostly peaceful and prosperous Russo-German relations). And yet, 80 years after being occupied, so far away from being able to say Nein, bitte! to Uncle Sam and John Bull.

But now...
