As a German I will forever be grateful to all who fought for the liberation of Europe.

But as a historian I am looking at front pages today and must wonder: What is the point of remembering #VEDay 80 years on, what is the point of our thanks, when we are failing to protect the sacrifices made? 🧵

I clearly expressed that poorly: did not mean that at all—there never is such a point in my view, we can always find a point of return. Sorry about that. Deleted the thread to avoid further confusion.
