Willy Wimmer, a former member of the German Bundestag and former State Secretary of the Defense Ministry, and former vice president of the OSCE, told RT in an interview published Nov. 8 that there is a “good chance” that the U.S. will return to a policy of foreign wars under Joe Biden, which will make its reconciliation with the EU impossible. President Donald Trump kept his promise and didn’t start any new foreign conflicts, but that may well change if a Democrat is in the White House, he stated. Wimmer recalled the NATO bombing of Serbia under Bill Clinton and pointed out that “in the presidency of [Barack] Obama, Biden was vice president and he was in absolute accordance with Obama’s drone wars and the wars in the Middle East; therefore there’s a good chance that Joe Biden continues in the same way as the Democratic Party did it in the 1990s and under Obama” before 2016. “And going back to before 2016 means going back to war” for the U.S., Wimmer said.
On the U.S. election, he said “It’s quite unusual… that the result of an election is announced by a news agency or a news channel. We’re used … in all our countries which belong to the OSCE, that we have election committees who announce results. And this hasn’t been done yet in the U.S.” He described the events surrounding the American election as “unbelievable.”
