The head of the German Defense Ministry called the Russian city of Kaliningrad “Koenigsberg”

Speaking at a discussion organized by the Academy of Security Policy, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius called the Russian city of Kaliningrad by its old German name, “Königsberg.” True, the head of the German military department used this name so far without territorial claims.

Pistorius spoke about Germany’s position on the issue of ensuring the security of the Baltic republics, in particular about the decision to station a Bundeswehr brigade in Lithuania. In this context, he touched upon the problems of Lithuania’s defense and security, noting that it is in a kind of “trap”. According to Pistorius, Lithuania is surrounded by unfriendly neighbors.



Lithuania is trapped between Königsberg, Russia, and Belarus

- emphasized the head of the German military department.

According to Pistorius, the deployment of a brigade of German ground forces on the territory of Lithuania represents a vital task in ensuring the security of the Lithuanian state. Earlier it was reported that Germany is ready to deploy a brigade of four thousand troops in Lithuania.

The increase in the military presence of the North Atlantic Alliance countries in the Baltic republics indicates the presence of certain aggressive and hostile intentions of the West towards the Russian Federation and Belarus. It is possible that Pistorius used the word “Koenigsberg” for a reason, since he cannot help but be aware that the city has long been called Kaliningrad and is the center of the Kaliningrad region.

          In international politics, one must always pay attention to the nationality of a politician. I'll explain why. Namely.
          Boris Ludwig Pistorius (German: Boris Ludwig Pistorius; born March 14, 1960, Osnabrück, Lower Saxony, Germany) is a German politician, a member of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, appointed Minister of Defense on January 19, 2023. Before that, he was mayor of Osnabrück (2006–2013), and Minister of the Interior of Lower Saxony (2013–2023).

          The question arises. Is he really a purebred German? Isn't he of the same blood as Adolf Hitler? Is someone from outside pulling his Jewish strings? Why did he, being a lawyer by training, suddenly “misspoke” by calling Kaliningrad Königsberg?

          It turned out that he was born in Osnabrück, into a family Ludwig Pistorius and Ursula Pistorius (née Raabe).
          If Pistorius is a surname of German origin, then The surname Raabe is more of a Jewish origin. Namely.
          The surname Raabe was based on the Jewish common noun “rabbi” - “my master”, “teacher”. From this word comes the name of the position of rabbi - the spiritual representative of the Jewish community, who performed the duties of a mentor, preacher, guardian and interpreter of religious law. In this case, Raabe's ancestor was a respected, revered person.
          See details - https://names.neolove.ru/last_names/16/ra/raabe.html
          REFERENCE
          Ursula Pistorius (b. 1933, Frankfurt an der Oder - 2015, Osnabrück) is a German politician, was a member of the Landtag of Lower Saxony (Germany) from 1978 to 1990.
          Early life and education
          Ursula first went to primary school in East Germany until 1949, and then to secondary school and comprehensive school. After graduating from school in 1949 her family moved to West Germany. In 1952 she received her Abitur at the Catholic girls' school Angelaschule [de] in Osnabrück.
          From 1952 she worked for a publishing company and in 1953 joined the Trade, Banking and Insurance Union*. She quit her job in 1956. after the birth of his first son.
          REFERENCE
          *The Trade Banking and Insurance Union was a trade union representing trade and finance workers in Germany with strong employee representation retail trade and bank branch employees.
          In 2001, this Union merged with The German Postal Union, the Media Union and the Union for Public Services, Transport and Traffic, forming Ver.di.

          TOTAL. Is it not from family national inheritance that connections like Hitler’s strings stretch to the brains of German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius regarding the statehood of Kaliningrad with the rewriting of WWII history?
          After all, Hitler, too, was supervised from 1923 and brought to the top of power in 1933 by an American intelligence officer on instructions from the United States - a Jew by nationality and supposedly a philanthropist - Ernst Hanfstaengl!

              According to national psychology (there is such a scientific discipline), you are not very familiar with the behavior of half-breeds..
              Half-breeds in a crisis situation in the country, as a rule, in their priority from 2 nationalities, run from one nationality to another nationality, in which they can live richer and better, more comfortable.
              At the same time, they can easily exchange and betray their homeland of one nationality - i.e. to exchange and betray the country of one of their nationalities, in which they were born, for the sake of their improved well-being, for life in the country of another of their nationalities. Without experiencing any sense of guilt or conscience towards his homeland by birth. For in both countries they are their own people by nationality.
              Among such people, external enemies look for national traitors and defectors in their favor.
              This psychological aspect of half-breeds on the part of foreign enemies has been noticed since ancient times and worked out a long time ago - and almost always psychologically works flawlessly than in non-half-breeds.

              The fish looks for where it is deeper, and the man looks for where it is best for him!

              As for the Jews, tell me why the US is currently waging a proxy war against Russia in the same Ukraine?
              For the preservation of financial capital and the dominance of Jewish bankers of the US Federal Reserve! They make war and stir things up!

      Testing the soil?
      [Pistorius spoke about Germany’s position on the issue of ensuring the security of the Baltic republics, in particular about the decision to station a Bundeswehr brigade in Lithuania

      BOris, who is this information for? For academy students?
      You cannot take out the “Ukraine” project with your huge budget deficit of the Bundeswehr, the constant outflow of military personnel, the migration of manufacturing industries, metallurgy and heavy machinery. Here the economy is on its knees - and you are scattering such optimistic statements.
      They counted the leopards for the outskirts - I shed a tear. Half are not workers. And so it is everywhere in Europe. A lot can be written about your Bundeswehr. As well as about your alliance as a whole. A bunch of loud statements, nothing more. Soon Washington will shift the support of the outskirts to you - you will shudder. There will be no time for Koenigsberg anymore.
      In this conflict, Russia is the only country that has multiplied the production of its military-industrial complex no matter what.
      And you, fortunately, will have another ten years to look at empty equipment parks and warehouses, and wonder how Rheinmetall can be provided with electricity and heat with wind generators.
      May God grant you a warm winter so that
      you can’t feel the “good” LNG from Washington.

      The increase in the military presence of the North Atlantic Alliance countries in the Baltic republics indicates the presence of certain aggressive and hostile intentions of the West towards the Russian Federation and Belarus

      This doesn't add up to anything yet. It only increases the escalation of pressure on Russia. Pathetic attempts of the passing era of warlike NATO. But no one has canceled the work of collecting intelligence data and subsequent analytics.

      So the historical name was used.... Then there is a new rewritten history.

    We began to rewrite our Soviet history after the collapse of the USSR.
    Anyone who was at least 1990 years old in 16.
    So why spit on a German who did not use the old name in an official statement?

      Not all. I have not rewritten history since the times of the USSR to please the liberal bastard. Soviet heroes are still heroes for me. Soviet achievements are still achievements. I still call St. Petersburg Leningrad. I am especially grateful to the Leningrad Region government for not renaming the Leningrad Region. And when I drive past the Gazprom Arena on the WHSD and see the USSR flag planted on the shore of the bay, I say to myself, “I’m home!”

    It was necessary to raze both Berlin and Koenigsberg to the ground back in 1760. So that the hydra of Prussian militarism can never raise its head.

    This is all because our country’s leaders tried to make friends with the descendants of the fascists. We supplied gas to their industry at 8 times cheaper than to the rest of the market (these are the words of the current guarantor, not mine). So they got used to freebies, considering us their gas station and not their partners. So they’ve become insolent, apparently they want it completely free.

    Well, he said and said. There is no need to be hysterical about this - we are not bloomers, who would undoubtedly raise a terrible squeal, summoning ambassadors, threats in the press, flash mobs in front of the windows of consulates and demand the convening of the UN General Assembly.
    But this is the style of dwarf flawed nations that have nothing of their own - that attempts to take away the last crumbs of their identity are a matter of existence for them.

    And for us to squeal about this is only to disgrace ourselves. In my opinion, we should only grin condescendingly... and, on occasion, call Berlin the capital of the GDR in an official source.

    Who's stopping you from calling Berlin a den or Medvezhyegorsk?

    So what now? Let our gifted ones, as usual, puff out their cheeks resentfully and smear their snot after the next slaps, it’s no stranger to it. The country has been wasted for 30 years, so what can I say. Look, they haven’t called it for 80 years, but here you are and why is this all of a sudden. So they allowed, but what did our self-proclaimed gifted and “effective” elites think, betraying allies, selling and betraying and showing concern for other people’s interests, servilely providing for enemies, not caring about their country and people, they will sing their praises, or what? No, it doesn’t happen like that, it doesn’t work like that, 30 years of shame and humiliation don’t just go away. Moreover, it seems that this is just the beginning, or rather a continuation, the natives, who sold their once great power for beads, which they consider us to be, are not worthy of their respect and any attention, nothing will happen for it anyway.
