Namibia has criticized Germany for its historical actions, with several individuals and organizations expressing discontent over Germany's moral stance and accountability for past crimes. The condemnation stems from Germany's defense of Israel amid accusations of genocide and apartheid. President Hage Geingob of Namibia has accused Germany of failing to learn from its history, referencing the country's colonial actions in Namibia, Tanzania, Togo, and Cameroon. The situation has sparked a broader discussion on the moral authority of nations and their historical conduct.

The German state giving the world moral lectures - given its own history - and forcing others to pay for its crimes has been a nauseating spectacle. So well done Namibia on taking it down a peg https://t.co/tw6dqN5G8q
