I think that in the event of an invasion by the Russian Federation, this percentage will increase to 80%. And the Germans will be right, because the Germans know better than anyone else what is best for their country, unlike the stupid Mertz. Germans will once again have cheap food, cheap gas, oil, a huge market for their products, cars as a source of national pride, and so on.
The less resistance there is, the faster the effect will be felt.
