Do you even know what was going on back then? The Americans were after Germany's gold at the end of the war. There are pictures of them with gold bars on their epaulettes.
They say they even found a house made of painted gold bars instead of bricks. That's how they hid the gold from the Americans.
Stalin as a representative of the USSR dismantled and removed machine tools from German factories. As the country lay in ruins, this was the main value. The gold would have been used to buy the same things, but at a much higher price. So at that time the equipment was much more expensive for the country.
You mean when e.g. the Germans buy us-american products they can easily pay with "their" gold, which they don't have because the two anglosaxon countries who once were the world hegemon (note that I used the imperfect, and with joy) actually had it under their control?
Or maybe you play tactical games. It's simple: gold one doesn't physically hold and control is gold one simply doesn't have (other than on paper).
Have you ever been in Fort Knox or in the vault of the german Bundesbank? No? Well then who have nothing, empty hands and some blabla from banksters. Don't get me wrong, I'm not interested in convincing you that you should think differently; you trust in the blabla of politsters and bankster, fine with me. Just don't offer that BS to me or, being at that, to the people who trusted in paper gold only to find out that their "gold" didn't exist.
Again blabla. Sorry but you really seem to believe all the BS the media trumpet. What really happened was very different. The west-german regime plundered the east-german economy and people, that's what happened. And when one of the "Treuhand" leaders didn't want to act like a robber, he had an "unfortunate (deadly) accident".
So the Germans willingly transferred their gold to their enemies because of, oh well, the Russians.
And once the USSR had fallen (and us-american "advisors" basically ran Russia) the German fetched their gold back home again, only about 20+ years delayed.
In other words, according to you to get the gold out of the country went very quickyl but getting it back, well, bureaucracy and "diverse factors", took 20+ years. Sure.
Unless you are afraid of the Russian. Then it magically works fine, and quick too.
Nothing will repair itself. That's another and, pardon me, stupid fairy tale. People repair, sadly sometimes at the cost of their lives.
They tried their brutal destruction game with Russia, too ... but it turned out that Russia had the brains and the power to tell them to go and fuck themselves - which they obediently did, hahaha.
I'll close by telling you about real turkish problems: us-american military bases. That is a real problem. But one can't easily get rid of those, especially not if a country basically (still) is an occupation zone, albeit dressed in a nice "democracy" garment. In case you have doubts just ask the Germans why their regime didn't so much as openly think about who blew up their gas pipelines ...
No, no, they brought their gold to safety from the Russians - by having their enemies storing it!
But then, I know, you are stubborn. You also refuse to believe that rainbow unicorns deliver babies.
Unicorns??? I thought it was FEDEX, ahh mann....
That is just temporary due to, uhm, certain circumstances.
Oh and it's not just any ordinary unicorns but rainbow unicorns, please!
