Angela's bit of a spectacle

My brief comment on The Times article Merkel anger over Russian hacking by Oliver Moody, 14 May 2020.

Germany as a whole is in no position to stand up to Russia, and even more so with comrade Angela Merkel, former member of the youth wing of the East German Communist party Freie Deutsche Jugend, as a chancellor. Much ado about nothing. A bit of a spectacle to give Angela the chance to pretend she is hurt.
