In a recent article, Germany’s Federal Employment Agency paints a rather pessimistic picture of the country’s economic situation, raising alarms about its overall decline.
In its latest job report on March 31, Germany’s Federal Employment Agency (BA), announced that German industry lost around 120,000 jobs in the last 12 months.
Employment in German industry has been declining month by month since August 2023
Bankruptcies have surged among companies with revenues of €10 million or more per year:
2022: 227 companies
2023: 279 companies
2024: 364 companies
2025: 455 companies (forecast)
This trend is not new—it has been worsening for years. Last year, German chemical giant BASF announced plans to shut down domestic plants while investing billions in China. Economic cracks are visible everywhere, yet the German government continues to look the other way.

A self-inflicted crisis
The root causes of this alarming decline are well-known but rarely acknowledged in mainstream media:
- Loss of cheap, reliable Russian gas – Germany refuses even to investigate the Nord Stream sabotage and even proudly declares there will be no replacement pipeline. In a self-sabotaging attempt to punish Russia’s economy, Germany is now suffering bitter consequences.
- Failed green energy policies – Combined with the energy crisis, this has proven disastrous for industry.
- Unconditional support for the proxy war in Ukraine – Germany seems willing to sacrifice its own economy and societal stability to please Brussels, NATO, or for the sake of virtue signaling.
A Perfect Storm for Germany’s Collapse
Combine all of the above with the latest US-led trade war against the world and NATO’s push to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP, and the situation becomes dire. Add internal crises like unchecked migration, and the result is a volatile social and economic powder keg. Meanwhile, Germany’s so-called "change" election changed nothing—now the country is led by "BlackRock" Merz, a symbol of continuity in decline.
Once the proud powerhouse of Europe, Germany is crumbling at an alarming pace. This isn’t just a national crisis—it could mark the beginning of the end for the artificially constructed European Union, an experiment buckling under its own contradictions.
