I know I’ll get downvoted for this but it needs saying.

I don’t think the allies made any exemptions for the German that wrote their representatives in the lead-up to and during the second world war. All got stuck with the bill, 6 million got forcibly deported from their homes. There is a thing as collective guilt and responsibility.

Your country is on collision course with mine, threatening invasion. I really don’t think a few letters absolve you.

I might like you as an individual, who knows, but you can’t run from some responsibility for this.
