The COLLAPSE of Germany's Economy Will Destroy the EU Forever | Yanis Varoufakis

Описание: Germany is entering its third consecutive year of recession in 2025, marking the longest economic decline in post-war history while media and political elites maintain conspiracy of silence about systematic collapse of Europe's supposed economic engine. Over 200,000 industrial jobs have vanished since 2020 with German automotive sector experiencing "Detroit moment" as Chinese manufacturers achieve 87% electric vehicle market share versus Germany's negligible 5% through superior digital integration and cost advantages. Energy costs three times higher than US competitors, combined with bureaucratic paralysis and skilled worker shortages, have triggered permanent structural deindustrialization that threatens entire European integration project built on German economic leadership and fiscal transfers. The transformation of Germany from European anchor into economic drag creates unprecedented institutional crisis requiring fundamental restructuring of EU frameworks or accepting gradual fragmentation as member states prioritize national interests over collective objectives that have become economically unsustainable without German support.
