Macron said on Monday in his eulogy for the deceased in the Bundestag in Berlin: “Germany has lost a statesman. Europe has lost a pillar. France has lost a friend.” Schäuble’s desire to have a Frenchman speak in the Bundestag says a lot about his trust in France and Germany. Macron also remembered the death of Jacques Delor on December 27th. “One after the other, Europe has lost two of its great thought leaders.” Both were founding fathers of European unification and the reconciliation of peoples. “Two statesmen who gave everything for their countries and Europe.” There were two lives as links and mediators. “They left us one night apart and our hearts as Europeans now bear a double sadness.”
With the signing of the Élysée Treaty on January 22, 1963, Germany and France were obliged to reconcile, said Macron. “This task was in the hands of several generations. They include the founding fathers of Europe (…). Wolfgang Schäuble was one of this generation of master builders.”
On this approach we see Macron desperate paying respect to a leader he never met, discussed politics, or economy with to try to fit back again in the European political sphere. Not even his cabinet of low rating play back individuals looking for attention to sustain the rating of their channels can be seen to help Macron.
Now the Bundestag, the engine of the European Parliament who even directs to pass on Macron on the words of Germany government. Macron lost touch with Europe, and the world playing the African tit-for-tat board game and acting as if he was the Napoleon conqueror who never was. Macron is in a shadow of global leaders, including U.S. politics candidates who shadow him, and aren’t even presidents or prime ministers.
We are on the presumption that Macron has now become even the shadow of majors European cities which explain his popularity has downgraded to lowest of the low in European Union. When Macron entered politics, Schäuble was already shaking hands with world wide presidents and prime ministers in the 1980s on behalf of German economic deals. Macron wants to portray an optimistic face to the world when he can’t even stand up to his feet.
Now on Schäuble in his long political career, the Christian Democrat was head of the German Chancellery, Minister of the Interior and Finance, party leader and President of the Bundestag. Most recently, he was a simple member of the Bundestag, where he served for 51 years – longer than any other member in the history of German parliamentarism. He died on December 26th at the age of 81 in his hometown , Offenburg in southwest Germany. He was also buried there.
