President Putin's message to the German government and the German people: "We have no desire to attack you. Why would we? Those days are long behind us. Anyone who is thinking clearly can see that.

Fifth: Your infrastructure is crumbling, and you are struggling to keep up with the repairs. Sixth: Your railways were once a source of national pride and an example to the world. Today, your trains are notorious for delays and declining reliability. Seventh: We no longer depend on your renowned engineers. The sanctions taught us how to manage without them. And if we ever need outside expertise, we can turn to China, where it is not only less expensive but often more competitive.
