Instead of setting limits on the aggressor, Trump asks victims to stop defending themselves...
If there was any doubt about who Donald Trump serves on the international stage, this week he finally erased it.
Three weeks after a noisy and completely useless meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, the American president threw the ball into Europe's court, not to ask for more help for Ukraine, but to blame it for the stalling of the peace process.
While Putin continues to drag out the “deadlines” for an agreement he has no intention of signing, Trump not only refuses to take punitive measures, but openly says that “we will be happy or not, we will see.” This is the diplomacy of the man who once claimed to know “how to stop war.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in his daily effort to keep the West awake, got involved in a phone call with Trump and European leaders. He talked about sanctions on Russia and economic pressure on Putin’s war machine. Trump, in turn, urged Europeans to stop buying Russian oil and impose sanctions on China, a brilliant way to divert attention from himself while keeping real sanctions on hold.
In this diplomatic theater, Putin only failed to publicly thank Trump. Official Washington is avoiding direct confrontation with the Kremlin, while blaming the continent that is bearing the brunt of the war: with refugees, military aid, and economic costs.
The irony is that Trump sees Europe as an obstacle to peace, when in fact it is the one trying to save what is left of the international order.
This is no longer unstable rhetoric. It is tacit cooperation with the aggressor. It is political rehabilitation for Putin from the man who claims that “no one has been tougher on Russia.” But what is the truth?
Trump is tough on Europeans, soft on autocrats, and always looking for someone else to blame.
In his return mandate, Trump is not building peace. He is building an alibi to save Putin from historical responsibility. And for that, he doesn’t need to do much; it’s enough to blame Europe, shrug his shoulders, and say: “If we’re not happy with his decision, you’ll see what happens.”
This is the language of a man who either doesn't understand war, or uses it as currency to restore shady alliances. And Putin, calmer than ever, knows this well./ Pamphlet
Note: Спасибо, Donald!*- Thanks Donald!
