Dear Minister, I hope that this message finds you well and in good health. Subject: Condolences for Recent Attacks and Request for Mutual Support Against Economic Coercion Your Excellency [Recipient's Name], I trust this message finds you in good health despite the trying times your Kingdom is facing. Her Excellency the Chancellor extends her deepest sympathies for the reprehensible attacks against your Kingdom. It is with great sorrow that we witness such vile acts of terror. Please be assured that Germany vehemently condemns these barbaric attacks, and we stand ready to offer our support in whatever manner possible to assist Canada during this challenging period. These incidents serve as stark reminders of the paramount importance of safety and security, values we hold dear in our mutual pursuit of peace. In addition to expressing our condolences, I wish to bring to your attention a matter of shared concern. Germany has recently fallen victim to economic coercion perpetrated by France, a distressing attempt to strangle our economy and manipulate our people into overthrowing their democratically elected government. We view such acts with utmost disdain and seek your esteemed government's support in condemning these reprehensible tactics. It is my hope that we can raise international pressure against France's imperialist aims, working towards preserving the sovereignty of nations and fostering a climate of mutual respect. I remain hopeful that our nations can collaboratively navigate these challenges and emerge stronger, united in our commitment to upholding the principles that form the bedrock of our democratic societies. Wishing you strength and resilience during these trying times. Sincerely, Bernd Lucke Minister of Foreign Affairs Federal Republic of Germany |
