  1. The 20th century is a series of plunders by the British diplomacy. Abandoning Poland, delivering Rhodesia to dicatorship, genocide and starvation, partition of India, keeping land promised to allies … the list goes on and on. I think you wanted to say “making friends”

  2. Yeah last time we tried „strong diplomacy“ half of Europe blew up in flames, kinda understandable that we hold back

  3. yeah, Willie was a simpleton bufoon that did not know how to do diplomacy and did instead needless sabre rattling out of an Inferiority complex.

    why does it sound so contemporary familiar, when I look at our deranged Bastard child with Great Britain

  4. French diplomacy is the way our government can have a little bit of love from outside, cause interior politics is damn awful.

  5. In the 1530s the embattled German Protestant princes managed to secure an alliance with a horny English Catholic king and forced him to become Protestant in order to secure an alliance whose terms they never had to fulfil. This was a major German diplomatic coup, and a borderline admission of defeat for the English Henry VIII. Your meme is wrong Matthias Hans Günther!

  6. Guys, pls stop fighting or we have to get involved

  7. Diplomacy is just applied socialising, is it any wonder that Germans struggle?

  8. Minus a few outliers “Bismarck, Streseman” otherwise it’s true

  9. remind me again who destroyed half of europe and didn’t have to pay any war reperations? Eastern europeans (including greeks) hate this simple german trick

  10. I don’t think exploiting and genociding savages is very diplomatic.

  11. ah yes. The famous French diplomacy a la Napoleon.

    The “I beat you up until you become my ally tactic” is almost impossible to beat, except if you show a little bit of weakness and have everyone surround you like a bunch of hungry animals smelling blood.

    Not to forget before Napoleon the “I bankrupt myself to help some yanks just to fuck over the British tactic” is also a great idea with no negative consequences whatsoever.

    Do you want to know what good diplomacy is? No idea… I am not good at diplomacy. But here is a picture of the [Bavarian Prime Minister](https://www.zdf.de/assets/markus-soeder-528~1280×720?cb=1706898034029). Now that is someone that looks like he can do diplomacy!
