State Department spokeswoman notes D-Day in answer on 'strong relationship' with Germany

I must have missed this

Washington (CNN) State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert on Tuesday cited the D-Day invasion during an answer about the current state of US-German relations.

"We have a very strong relationship with the government of Germany," Nauert said. "Looking back in the history books, today is the 71st anniversary of the speech that announced the Marshall Plan. Tomorrow is the anniversary of the D-Day invasion. We obviously have a very long history with the government of Germany, and we have a strong relationship with the government of Germany."

so we have a good relationship now.

I would have preferred that we have gone with we could have salted your fields and held you all accountable for your war crimes instead of funding the Marshall Plan to put you back on your feet. That at least would have been honest.

By the way she has a Journalism MA from Columbia. I got to think they are pulling their hair out.
