Help answer this question below.
The west in complete has failed in Eastern Europe.
Germany has fortunately started the best friendship since ever with Russia and since a very long time in history Germany has found a real friend and I am glad that Germany is enforcing its relationships to Russia because Germans and Germany have a fine reputation in Russia, while in some West European countries there is an inceasing wave of hatred and hostility against Germany and Germans.
The future of Germany will not be in a relationship to certain hostile countries which still behave as if they were at war with Germany but the clear future of Germany will be in a close and real friendship with Russia as a reliable ally.
Germany will move eastwards because it is kicked around by certain western countries to this direction and Germans and Germany know very well that they are extremely hated by certain countries in western Europe.
In a few years we will have a strategic alliance btween Russia and Germany.
The Western Europeans did not like to have the Germans as their friends so it is nothing but a natural matter of course that Germany is looking for its real friends and for countries where they are not hated but welcome.
Germany and Russia have already a very special relationship full of confidence and mutual respect and Germany gets by the Russians all that they had to miss over more than a century.
Germany is fed up getting kicked around by some European nations and will make its own choice. Germany and Russia will be a very solid alliance which will be important in the future.
I do not see much future in a European Union which is based on bias and open hatred against Germany.
Germany should leave the EU, keep close contact to France as long as they and concentrate on Russia as their best real partner for future.
Many Germans speak fluent Russian as well as many Russians speak fluent German.
So there is a real good base for both countries.
Kaylan makes some good points, but he only says what the West did not do...not what he thinks it should have done differently or could have done. Were we to send envoys, "uninvited," into every former Soviet satellite to teach and instruct them in free enterprise, capitalism, and democracy? These countries all had unique problems that they had to sort out themselves. And some were not easy problems,..such as the ethnic hatreds in the Balkans. What was the West supposed to do in these situations? I think it went pretty far in trying to help where it could. The Balkans were a mess. Even Kaylan says most of the government heads from the old communist regimes remained in charge, and I don't think they asked for our help...in any area.

Is the use of stripes on the national flags of Europe a uniquely European phenomenon, or does it also apply to other flags outside Europe?
